[WP] In 2740, the Laser-Guided Lunar Elevator is completed, providing convenient travel to and from the moon. This isn't any old elevator though, it's more like a space-faring hotel, as the trip takes about two weeks. You and 10+ others have signed on for the maiden voyage. Hope nothing goes wrong.

[WP] Your grandmother always had a book of short, beautifully written poems, each one only a couple of lines long. Oddly, she forbid you to ever read the poems out loud. After she passed away, you took possession of the book, and finally read one of the poems out loud, accidentally casting a spell.

[WP] For years, you've had nightmares and sleep paralysis about a large shadow looming over you, always watching.

[WP] You’re on a spacefaring colony-ship the length of a planet. You live at the back of the ship, and something at the front has gone wrong. A system has gone critical, causing a chain reaction to systematically destroy the ship, but destruction won’t reach you for a while.

[WP] You’re a veteran wasteland survivor. During a scavenging trip somewhere, you come across someone frozen in cryosleep, and you wake them up. They are some kind of researcher, and are unreasonably excited to get out and start researching all the mutated plants and animals of the apocalypse.

[WP] A witch and her servant familiar (a cat who can temporarily shapeshift into a human) have a falling out, and the cat runs away. You find the cat and, thinking it's just a stray, take it in. The cat hides it's true nature from you for as long as it can.

[WP] The alien mothership has been hanging out on the moon for long enough that it's become normal. Once a month they abduct a handful of people for their genetic experiments but it's not usually fatal and they always send the subjects back, for better or worse. Some people even strive to be chosen.
