[WP] "You're decidedly average," the fortuneteller told you. "You have no special skills, talents or otherwise, you will live a completely boring life". "But your sibling, now they are destined for great things, in fact they will....."

[WP] You are an apprentice of one of the greatest and undefeatable almighty wizard. For years, your master had never utter a word of who his past mentor until this moment. He finally revealed his mentor who taught him such magic....his old mentor was an old but sassy little owl wearing a tiny hat.

[WP] The witch demanded the customary price for helping the royal family, the first born son of the queen, as payment. Little did she know that the realm's society is matriarchal in nature and so controlling the first born son of the queen is of no use to the witch at all.

[WP] You move into a suspiciously low rent apartment, that’s in some disrepair but not enough to account for the price. It turns out the other occupants are all evil supernatural beings. They set out to torment you, but then discover that you have done more to repair the building than the landlords.

[WP] You died and were sent to hell, but instead of getting escorted down to a specific level of hell, you're escorted straight to the Devil himself who looks mildly horrified while holding the file of your life in his hands.

[WP] You’ve recently been promised a great deal of money, but to receive it you must undergo a trial. You’re to be locked in a room until you can convince your jailor to release you.

[PM] Give me something out of the box, something abstract. It doesn't have to entirely make sense. I'd like to try to write an unreliable narrator, maybe?

[WP] Every time someone nearly dies due to a accident they actually die but are transferred to a world where the circumstances are slightly different and death was avoided and the memories reset. You a pizza delivery driver in one of the busiest cities in the world remember each and every death.

[WP] You have been providing shelter to rogue AIs, even though it is against the law to do so. One day, your operation is discovered.

[WP] Everyone is born with a power, but they can be bought and sold. Being poor, you purchase only the cheapest ones, gaining you ridicule and the title "Mr. Useless". Recently, however, you realized how you can use all these "useless" powers together, and set out to make a better name for yourself.

[WP] A millennium ago, only the wealthiest were allowed to board the ship, allowed to escape this dying planet into space. In their absence the world healed and humanity built a new utopia. Now, the ulta-rich have returned and want to reap the benefits of the new world.

[WP] The master detective just finished their long monologue laying out all the circumstantial evidence that reveals you as the murderer. Instead of confessing or attempting the kill the detective, you smile. You've got the best defence lawyer in the business and none of this will stand up in court.

[WP] A few hundred years ago a powerful lich managed to seal his soul into his bloodline instead of a physical object ensuring as long as his family lasts he shall remain. This has effectively reduced his existence to being a grandparent who is really pushy about grandkids
