[WP] The cloaked man hung suspended by a web of silvery strands. It was then that the creature emerged from a shadows. "You enter my lair willingly. Tell me, do you seek death?" The cloaked man smiles calmly. "I'm here because my order only recruits the best. We don't seek death, we deal it."

[WP] You are an Orc. Your race has become industrialized and advanced, transforming the surface of your planet into a smoldering factory devoid of greenery. One day a meteor falls from the smog filled sky. From its impact crater a great tree rises. The war with the Elves has begun.

[WP] The duke lays dead in a pool of blood, his life forfeited over a duel based on a lie. His killer roars at the guards, making a last stand. The empress weeps as she lifts a goblet laced with poison to her lips. You, the lowly servant and orchestrator of their doom, watch with a smile.

[WP] They have come up with all sorts of crazy names for you due to your appearance and powers. They draw up outlandish prophecies every time you come and send chosen heroes to defeat you. They always think you have some kind of dark plan. The truth is, you really just come to Earth on vacation.

[WP] At night, the creatures that prey on man emerge. Taking pity on mankind, the God of Fire granted man the gift of his flame to ward these beasts. Over years man did terrible things with fire. The God had enough. The screaming witch was half burned when all the flames of the world died.

[WP] It seems that the legends were wrong. The genie that emerged from the lamp doesn't grant wishes. What the genie does have is a charming personality, skill with a scimitar, and a thirst for adventure.

[WP] You've always dreamed of being a knight. After a tournament you've been selected to serve as a squire. The problem is the knight you serve is a drunkard, lout, and person of weak honor. When forced to scout the dragon's lair, the creature you find within is far more regal than your master.
