[WP] They told you it was awful here. Now that you've been "captured" and made a Citizen, it's so blindingly obvious they were lying that risking your life suppressing riots back home for most of your life seems... Evil. The AI informs you that's normal, and they'll gladly help you work through it.

[WP] You screamed. A moment of abject, intolerable terror. But, instead of the sound petering out as your lungs ran out of air, your scream seemed to draw out more and more air, more volume, more power with every passing moment. You leveled several buildings. You're still not sure how.

[WP] You've been addicted to combat nanites for decades. This was a perfectly manageable quirk of yours, until the crash landing. Now you're stranded, cut off from your fix. You're going to have to put your heightened abilities to use, even as they wane away and the withdrawal effects mount.

[WP] You're visiting a quaint little town, when suddenly, a cry rings out. "Slime from the east! Make way for east side first!" The townspeople explode into a flurry of activity - Packing, jacking up the buildings and putting... Wheels on them. The entire town, buildings and all, preparing to run.

[WP] You and your crew discover an ancient penal colony. Strangely, it appears to still be running. Inside you find only a single inmate - Still alive and healthy after thousands of years, thanks to the automated systems.

[WP] You find a gauntlet from a suit of power armor, complete with an intelligent integrated AI and several powerful functions. It's tracking the other pieces of the set for you, and you're trying to find them all. The only trouble is, most of them have already been discovered by other people.
