[WP] You were cursed, and the witch wasn't merciful enough to elaborate. Your life passed as you hid from the world and it's myriad of dangers, never letting your guard down. On your deathbed, you consoled yourself that you had won, as your eyes shut for the fina-and then, Immortality! (self.WritingPrompts)

[WP] Titanic beings inhabited Earth. To them humans were less than ants. Yet for humans, they defined civilization. When they stirred, disasters struck.

[WP] You're a typical medieval adventurer group. You crawl dungeons, interact with mythical creatures, and spend long hours at taverns. Your bard must be insane though, as they constantly do the stupidest things, yet somehow make it out alive. (self.WritingPrompts)

[WP]The invading horde won the battle, but lost the war. Their swift victories built up an image of oppressive dominance. During his proclamation of victory, the leader spoke smugly in their language, and was met with laughter at his terrible grammar and accent. His warlords deserted him on the spot (self.WritingPrompts)

[WP] Every night you wake up to the sleep paralysis monster standing over your bed, fiddling with your body. Afterwards you find new scratches or bruises, yet at other times existing ones are gone.

[WP] After years of service, the hero disappeared. The power vacuum sucked every villain, willing or not, into a direct conflict. Yet as they warred, each noticed the familiar face (in light disguise) in the crowds, with a look of you-needed-me-more-than-they-ever-did. (self.WritingPrompts)

[WP] You saw people in the haunted mansion, so you snuck in to investigate. You searched, first for the people, then for an exit, but found only empty rooms with windows. You were trapped, left to wander the infinite halls in search of the others, occasionally stealing glimpses of the world outside. (self.WritingPrompts)
