: "[WP] You're the healer of the group. The rest of the party has always treated you like you're made of glass. You were content to stay out of their way and let them do their thing. Until they all got downed leaving you the only one standing. That's when you show them how deadly healing Magic can be."

: "[WP] Bad news, you're in stuck in a time loop. Worse news, you're not the focus of it. You remember every loop. It resets at the end of the day, but often resets when you're in the middle of something, as if someone did something to reset. You're getting desperate to find the guy and escape the loop"

: "[WP] You live in a universe where everyone explodes in a display of gore instantly upon Death. It has happened throughout all history, and is considered boringly mundane by this point. As a doctor in a hospital you have seen plenty of it. One day, your patient clearly passes on, but nothing happens."

: "[WP] As part of the exchange program between planets, you allowed an alien to move in with you for a year. One day, your roommate walks in with a Star Trek DVD and goes "Human, what the hell is this?""
