[EU] In the wind rider tribe, to be chosen by a horse is the ultimate honor. Yet you were the first to be completely rejected by not one, but 3 horses. You banished yourself to the woods, and waited for death. What came instead were the wolf spiders, and they wished to create a bond with you.

[WP] when living in a mimic house, defense becomes a non-issue. Just hand someone your coat when they mug you and they stop existing. As the master of the house, you have gotten used to it, ever try to eat breakfast while your spoon tries to taste you? Now how to explain this to your girlfriend?-_-

[WP] When you arrived you had hoped for stealth, but that went out the window when the tyrant you were supposed to stop throws a festival in your honor. How did he know you'd come today? And why is everyone so damn happy serving a tyrannical demon?

[WP] You have applied to be a hero, every month for 3 years. Every time you were told the same thing, no openings. This time, you point to a recent ad that declared a hero shortage. You were escorted out, but not before grabbing your rejection form. Reason: Unheroic power. You despair on the steps.

[WP] When entering the galactic scene, few expected humanity to thrive. Simple mammals with mediocre tech. Then people realized that their unstable genome allowed them to have children with all carbon based life, somehow. Most aliens are now extinct, replaced with hybrids.

[WP] A shadowy figure approaches your cell, "hello again, I know you're not happy to see me" Understatement of the year. "but I can get you out" He promises. Kneeling down, he tossed something into your cell, just within reach. it's a syringe filled with clear liquid. "But you need to trust me."

[WP] It has been confirmed. Humans have souls. Personality and sapience is not reliant on the brain. How do I know? An alien parasite ate my brain. He's as confused as I am.

[WP] you are a nanite swarm, usually in the shape of a floating worm for convenience. In a flash, your wisked from your press conference and brought before a group of men in robes. “What is this?” “Where’s the hero?” “Dear Altra, we’re gonna die!” These guys are even worse than the reporters.
