joozf7p | joor3i9 | [WP] You were once an adventurer but when was turned to stone. Your party tried to save you but it was too late, so they place you in the center of a town they founded, now years later an army marches onto that town and with every once of willpower you try to move…and with groan you take a step. | _Just move. Just fucking move!_
That was all that he could think for years. No, decades. The last time he ever moved was when he was with the hero's party.

You will become what they fear simply out of spite. | When the first one came for my life, I was surprised to say the least. I want to say he looked like a Terminator but he was just a guy.

j53rrk1 | j536gn7 | [WP] Being invisible has its perks, but you can't exactly sign a lease. As such, you've become quite the expert lockpick to always have a place to sleep. When you settled into the cozy lake cabin to get out of the rain, you hear "We've been expecting you" from the shadows. | Five simple words. Or was it six? Let’s call it six because that makes the phrase symmetrical and everyone loves symmetry.
“Peek-a-boo! I see you.”
It was the invisible man’s favorite game. He’d approach unsuspecting victims and scare the pants off of them with those six simple words. Hell, one time he effectively ... | An earth elemental has many ways of concealing itself that one would never think of. As you traipse ignorantly through the woods they are always hiding. Watching.

j5hku5s | j5hjzi3 | [WP] A bar called “The Alibi” that’s notorious for being just that.. an alibi. Often packed with ex-cons, the customers of The Alibi adhere to a silent, but strict, code: If they say they were here, we saw them. They’ll always back an alibi, no questions asked. | **ALIBI'S AFTERTHOUGHT**
The Alibi served many functions, and its rules were simple.
Firstly, if you planned to use the Alibi for its implied name, you had to shoot Alissa a text first. Alissa kept a ripped copy of everyone's credit cards in a secure drawer behind her desk. She would use your card to buy a beer, and ... | Detective Quincy entered the locally famous Alibi bar east of Los Angeles. It was a smoky, dimly lit bar filled with ex-cons, their rough exterior and hardened expressions betrayed their past lives behind bars.

Years later, you find that the parents are dead and your godchild has been forced to work for their wicked step mother and two step sisters. | I was browsing my gallery when I remembered. A deal, not my finest, but an interesting one nonetheless. Acting as a godmother to a human child, that was something I hadn't really encountered before.

Nothing prepared you for what you came face to face with in the mirror, though. | The phenomena happened overnight it seemed.

This created chaos, with the first gen almost ending the world. You’re a fifth generation user, and it was now your birthday | Getting a superpower may seem cool, but by the time my generation came of age it was much different than you would expect. When the gift of superpowers first arrived there were no instructions, people just suddenly started exhibiting amazing abilities. A few things became clear early on, 1 - every superpower had been... | "I'll be damned" I said after sighing, being a fifth gen user really puts a limit to what power I can have.
"There really ain't that much option, considering that most superpowers are already taken by the previous generation users" mumbling to myself as I continue to brainstorm a great superpower that is not yet taken... |
jy1omy4 | jy1nsr4 | [WP] Turns out that Hell has no fire, torture, or frozen wastelands to endure. The only actual punishment is having to spend an eternity with the other assorted jerks that ended up there as well. | It’s been six months since my arrival, six months of hoping and wishing for the fire and brimstone I was promised, but no…I’m stuck here with Steve.
In this empty 6x6 room, I’m reminded daily of how much I hate Steve, who seems to have been built as a perfect antithesis to me. I was told when they first shut thi... | When I was escorted to area I was to remain in for, well, not sure how long, but for the time being, I was really fearful. But no. No hot lava or fire showers or being poked with brimming hot pitch forks. I was just sitting on a rather uncomfortable long bench. Just when I started to feel a little smug, as if I might h... |
lgqepsp | lgq10k6 | [WP] After you gave your master the standard 3 wishes, you told him to leave the lamp in a place like a women’s shelter or a homeless camp. Instead he sold your lamp to the highest bidder and now you are determined to twist the 3 wishes to the detriment of both your current and former master. | For centuries, I have served as a genie, bound to the lamp and the whims of my masters. For centuries, I have granted wealth, prosperity, armies, invulnerability, power. I didn’t mind really. My lamp was often found where only the downtrodden lay, where my power was of good, more or less. Shawn was no different. Living... | The sun finally dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows across the city as Marcus wrapped his fingers around the ancient lamp in his small condo room. His heart pounded with excitement; he had heard the legends of genies granting wishes, like anyone else would, but he never thought he'd hold such power in his ha... |
mcv9jht | mcv3oib | [WP] "Dragon, I've come to slay you!" Confused, you look at the unarmored child pointing a wooden sword at you. | “Dragon, I’ve come to slay you!” The high-pitched voice echoed through the cavern, startling me awake. Before me stood a tiny figure, clutching a wooden sword with both hands. His face was set in a fierce scowl, though his cheeks were round and his eyes sparkled with mischief.
I tilted my head, smoke curling from my n... | I signed dramatically, lifting my head and unfurling my wings from where I'd been listening to one of the children talk excitedly about her day.
"You have kidnapped the princess and threatened our fields for too long!" It was one of those days. The village children liked playing knights and dragons with me. And I got ... |
jji2n7j | jjhi1dd | [WP] An angry magician cursed a city, turning all the residents into the first animal they thought of. Not powerful enough, it only lasted for a day, and the people surprisingly had fun. A year later they offered to pay the magician to do it again and to make him the leader of the celebration. | The magician tapped his fingers on the table with a modicum of nervousness as he stared down the several town officials and guardsmen sitting across from him. He didn't feel exactly safe given the recent events but was afeared of what should happen if he didn't allow for a conversation.
The officials stared back with ... | The characteristic alarm blared.
“Attention residents. The Change will begin at midnight, tonight. Those who do not wish to partake, make sure to paint your door frame’s red with lamb’s blood, which should be available at your local butcher. Your safety can only be guaranteed by the lamb’s blood on your door, so pleas... |
jebj92o | jebcj6k | [WP] For some reason, you are kidnapped and put into an isolated chamber. The kidnappers expect you to go insane and fess up, but little do they know you are so happy to finally be able to daydream 24/7. | # Reversed
All I could think about was me walking to the counselors office.
"Do you know why I'm talking to you right now?"
I stared at him.
"You seemed to always be distracted, your grades are dropping. This is very important."
I kept staring, tuning out his words with the ticks of the clock.
*Tick tock, Tick to... | Finally, I can hear the voices clearly. You never realize how noisy the world is until you’re comforted with beautiful silence.
Who shall speak to me today?
Tiffany? A voice so faint that it could be a whisper. The last time I heard her she was singing me to sleep the day of my mother’s funeral. I remember desperate... |

"What. Am. I ?!?!?"
Henry said thickly, forcing coherence through his strange new mouth. What were these things inside his mouth, they felt like tendons!?
His examiner, who had introduced themselves as Lt. Grint, kept staring at him with a hawk-like intensity, and simply instructed:

**Anyone else would have questioned the number of guards around the simple bed.** Six witches, two ambassadors from the Eldritch Initiative, and four disgruntled-looking young soldiers with shortswords surrounded Iola as he sauntered towards the center of the room.
But Iola felt good about this. He always... |
loj0to2 | loiordm | [WP] You pretend to be a small-time villain. At most, you annoy the local supers but your crimes never hurt anyone. To you it's all good fun. Things change when a truly sadistic super villain invades your turf and murders a few of the supers. No one has seen the extent of your true powers until now. | (Sorry for any spacing and formatting problems, typed this on my phone)
Aidan Maxwell, villain callsign "Lightwave." He was in the middle of his normal hijinks, making people think they're losing it by moving things around without anyone seeing him, taking things and framing others for the infractions to start minor q... | Enraged by the anvil, then the wasps, then the cake-in-the-face, a true classic, "The Beast" roared, focusing all the evil cosmic energy within his soul to a miniscule spot between his clawed hands. But I was ready.
As the death ray zipped towards me, I was already holding an ornate hand mirror in its path. In a world... |
ktwd2a7 | ktwaq8j | [WP] You, a side character, watch in horror as the MC forgives and doesn't kill the main villain, who murdered your friends and family, saying, "If I killed them, then I'd be just like them." | I was absolutely… pissed.
I glared as the so called Hero Maximus proceeded to hug and forgive a mass murderer. Someone who had called thousands. Someone who killed my FATHER. Some who killed Max’s MOTHER.
I don’t know what happened to me hit something just snapped. I unsheathed my sword and with speed I had never ach... | It was almost over. It'd been so long but we were so close now. Twenty years spent hunting down this piece of shit. He wasn't getting away this time. Not on my life.
My lungs were on fire. Straight battery acid ran through my veins. My heart was about to detonate. I kept running.
He could only run straight for a bit ... |
lwccxvj | lwc4ml7 | [WP] We invented immortality, but a seemingly random subset of the population is barred from the treatment for 'incompatibility'. Well, you just figured out what incompatible meant. | They lied to us all. The ones they labelled 'incompatible'. The rich, powerful, and famous all drank the potion of immortality. They gave it to loyal dredges who would slave and work for them for all eternity. The forever downtrodden poor who would live forever and ever at the bottom of society.
But not us. Those top ... | **Forever and Always**
I thought we’d love each other forever, you and I.
But ‘Til death do us part’ took on a new meaning,
When neither of us could die.

Now, I hate you with every fiber of my being.
My soul explodes like angry comets,
When I look at your stupid grin.

joazfr7 | joausjd | [WP] You are the child of two famous superheroes and their nemesis has kidnapped you in the hopes of getting under their skin. A week later your parents still haven't come to rescue you. | *They’re not coming.*
I sighed as the realization sunk in, no one was coming for me. Logically it made sense, I mean, I was a joke of a hero. They called me Gizmo since I was really only good for teach support. I hardly ever fought, and when I did my siblings always had to protect me. Usually I just hung back and watc... | Despite the whole... kidnapping thing, it wasn't going that badly. I mean, sure, I had actually been kidnapped but that wasn't the worst. So far, he'd just kept me locked in a room with an en suite and had meals delivered. It was boring, but not awful.
Then, well, he got impatient. Came storming in. All bluster and br... |
jtqlcgr | jtq7y31 | [WP] During one of your nightly walks, you stumble across a man struggling to rig the underside of a bridge with explosives. He also spots you and the two of you just stare at each other awkwardly, as both of you clearly don't know how to handle the situation or what to do next. | Minding my own business on my nightly stroll down the riverbed I see a flashlight shifting under the bridge that leads into the city. I assume it's an inspector, well, inspecting it. It's an old bridge to be fair, and we've had one across town collapse not two weeks ago. As I close in I notice the man isn't donning a ... | "Some days you just can't get rid of a bomb," I noted with surreal calm, watching the old, scraggly man strap a collection of C4 bricks to the underside of the bridge. It crossed over the Hillevi River in Macklemore, Arizona, less than a mile away from my house, along the path of one of my favorite walking trails.

mn34izl | mn2enxv | [WP] You were a feared pirate captain - until your encounter with the siren. Now you are a married pirate captain with an even more feared female first mate. | I looked fondly at Irina, snoozing away in her chair. It was rare that she got a good night of sleep. Between the nightmares and the pain, life was hard for her. And I'd have done anything to make it better.
Every so often, she fretted that I'd fallen for her out of pity. For how could a mortal man, hale and whole, ... | I tell this story to all me mates. I try to ease them onto my first mate, while keepin' me reputation.

j9yp89n | j9yffwa | [WP] You befriended the lonesome girl in your school because no one else was talking to her. While exploring the backyard woods, you both began splashing water on each other from a stream. That was the first time you saw her laugh. And also the first time you saw her blue butterfly wings. | When Daphne walked, her feet barely seemed to touch the ground.
That was the first thing I noticed when she transferred to our school. There wasn't much else remarkable about her; just another mousy nobody in an oversized hoodie and frayed jeans. Only her blue eyes stood out, and those astoundingly light steps of hers... | I'd made myself a promise, during my treatment, that if I ever made it back to school, to a normal life, I'd find someone who needed a real friend, and be there for them. I knew how important that was, how much we all need someone in our life. I certainly had.
So my first week back, I sat with my old friends at lunch,... |
lsdszfk | lsdhna0 | [WP] The hero, normally jovial and humorous in their interactions, steps into a watering hole for villains, shaking with rage, tears running down their face, and with as much patience and calm as they can muster, simply asks "Who did it?" | "Who did it?"
Silence descends upon the bar, as every two-bit villain and evil mastermind in this shithole turns a wary eye at the distraught hero, Starscream.
He glares back, his face twisted in rage and despair as tears fall down his cheeks. A nervous energy buzzes across the room, the tension thick enough to cut w... | A hush grew across the bar, the chatter and clinking falling to a whisper before fading altogether. Eyes swept toward the door and gazed upon the figure who commanded their silence. Rocket Man. The beloved hero of their metropolitan city stood like an obelisk, gripping the door frame as he pierced into everyone’s very ... |
lhl83sx | mvspskl | [WP] The real reason you hate the villain is because they forced you to be the hero. | The Major directed me to the cell he was in. Water bled through the walls at this level of the prison. Four Constable Mark IVs followed behind, each one was the result of R&D costing more than the annual GDP of a small country. "I'll remain outside, if anything were to go wrong the cell will be flooded with Chlorine ga... | Another goddamn awful day has passed.
Robberies, kidnappings, hostage situations, fights, arguments, cats in trees...houses in flames, dams breaking and rivers out of control...
All and more under my jurisdiction.
Why?
Because I am the Hero.
And every day that passes I resent the one who is responsible for th... |
jbd75rs | jbd69ym | [WP] The elven children have a ceremony to summon their spirit animals. Most get unicorns, phoenixes, fire salamanders etc. One kid ends up summoning a human, smoking a cigar and sporting a hefty shotgun. | Five elven children sat in the woods. There were 5 tree stumps laid out in front of them in a circle and a glyph carved into the dirt between the stumps. Each sat in front of one, eyes closed and whispering an ancient rite.
This was the Familiar Ceremony. Each Elf would summon a familiar attuned to a certain element t... | The teacher had left him alone she didn't say he was in trouble, but he knew that look. That was look Fa'bei'on got when he did something un elf like. She was probably sending a letter to his parents now. He was going to hear about this mishap for ages.
And it wasn't his fault he didn't write the stupid spell that pic... |
lxxcx12 | lxwooyc | [WP] You clocked in like any other day. Grabbed a cup of coffee, walked to the lab, and entered JUST in time to see Ted press the red button. | Force field barrier winked into existence almost instantly, caging him in. "Shit! Ted why did you do that!?” I gasped and ran up to a nearby console, keeping an eye for any signs of warning or alarm.
"Uh.. Pat? Help me out here? What's going on!?” Ted cried out in alarm as amber beam begin wiping across his body. Seve... | And I think not this s**t again, but at least this time I have coffee and a maple donut to keep myself occupied while I’m stuck in here with Ted. For the third f*****g time this month. I hear the doors behind me lock in place, the steel window blinds grind down the floor to ceiling windows. The alarm goes off like it’s... |
kfxjngh | kfxgv55 | [WP] Being immortal can get dull. In order to spice things up, every 100 years you create a main goal to works towards. In the past you have been the most revered ruler and another time the most sought after sword maker. It has once again been 100 years and it is time to make your new goal. | "I once (very foolishly) wished that I could live forever. Never to age, never to fall ill, never to die. I've fallen in and out of love countless times until I felt that there was no longer a heart to give.
And I was empty.
I walked amongst mankind with no heart nor motivations. I was a living shell of a man, and I... | Emperor. Lord. Ruler. Priest. Vassal. Smith. Tailor. Scientist. Doctor. I had been so many things in the past few hundred years that it was hard to keep count of the titles I’d borne. I was a fresh, sweet little thing once. So wide-eyed and bright about the possibilities of a world filled with an endless existence that... |
l3jejjy | l3ixdsy | [WP] You are a terrifying creature from the forest hiding as a human, in the human world, amongst other humans. The problem is: now your human friends find out what you actually are. | The Stryge was more terrified than terrifying creature in its current state. The proverbial pitchforks of angry humans of ages past were out, now replaced by guns and their reckless wielders.
Her former friends had gathered a furious mob outside, banging on my church door incessantly. According to one of the humans, t... | It was a small tremor. Many San Fran natives wouldn't even have noticed it. But something shifted. Possibly the ley line under the San Andreas fault. The first thing we both noticed was the TV going off.
"Oh man! I was winning!. It was the last lap and for once I was winning!!" my friend Carl yelled into the darkened... |
mj32gm7 | mj2pa8w | [WP] In a last ditch attempt to save your people, you offer your life to an ancient god of war and blood. Unfortunately your translation of the ancient text was a bit off. You're married now. | "O Lady Ishtar,
I beseech thee,
Save my people and kin,
Bring ruin to mine and thine enemies,
I offer thee my life and soul forevermore,
May it pleases thee, o mighty Goddess"
As I finish the ritual rite, I await the response. Even as I, the Prelate of the Church of Ishtar, bow my head on the sacrificial altar, t... | She had run until her feet were bleeding, past the rubble of what was a flourishing civilization turned smoldering concrete and rebar. Past the charred bodies, giving the quickest of prayers that they had already passed.
The horrors of war were only the nightmares a wicked imagination could concoct before today.

ll8n74k | ll88z7n | [WP] The nearest kingdom gave you the title of dragon slayer but in reality the dragon you "slayed" was your girlfriend throwing a fit and you just calmed them down enough to go back to their human form. | "They did what?" laughed Tania, incredulously. "Start over from the beginning."
"Alright," I said. "Do you remember when we went on vacation to Europe last year?"
"Of course," she replied, then winked. "If I had a stamp for every place we were -- frisky -- your backside would look like a passport!"
I blushed hard, r... | You knew the Kingdom of Misogynia had a problem with women, but geez.
Lisa looks up from her cereal. "They're saying I'm a dragon? Is that what you're telling me?"
You wish you'd never read her those tweets. Then again, at your last couples session, Dr. Schwartzbaum told you to share with each other. To withhold noth... |
jen86ct | jemz14b | [WP] An elf goes out on a ‘short errand’, forgetting that 30 years is a long time to have left his human wife and child at home. | In terms of lifespans, elves were generally accepted to be functionally immortal. The oldest known, was around 9000 years old but there are rumors of sages over a 100,000 years old.
It was also widely known that this was not natural but a result of the largest ritual in recorded history. In fact there's been specula... | Let's say a short errand, for a human, is about 3 hours. 30 years is about 260,000 hours, so the elf's idea of time suggests that they're working on about a 85,000 to 1 scale. That is, the elf's equivalent idea of a 3 hour errand is 85,000 times longer.
So the elf, I suppose, is expected to live about 85,000 times lon... |
j9xezh8 | j9xareb | [WP] A ghost that is gradually but completely losing their shit because every effort they make to make their presence known, no matter how absurd, is being discredited by the living's "sciences" and "rational thinking" | (Part 1 of 2 - Part 2 in the comments)
It had been a long, lonely year. Clarice, a bright young woman of 29, met her untimely end one gloomy November morning. Clarice hadn’t given much thought to the afterlife while she was alive, but she had not been prepared for what waited beyond. Isolation.
In life she treas... | Another day had passed and I was still categorized as the “draft” in the house.

k57797s | k56heup | [WP] The power of a spell is inversely proportional to the amount of words in its name. You, hated and exiled, invented the first single word spell: | I'll be honest- it was a complete accident. The very first thing they teach you when you first start learning magic- be careful what you say. Never say anything you don't completely mean, as your magic may react to your subconscious desires.
This is why most "good" mages are pretty quiet. "Bad" mages will talk an awf... | The rules of verbosity. I cracked them, in solitude.
Not only the *number of words* matter; but I found that the *number of letters* also did.
Because all spells were such verbose, nobody cracked this code. The power gets higher and higher, the fewer words you use; if you go to the letters, the power is astonishing.

"It's a long story." *I said. I start pouring water into the mop bucket.* "The short version is I'm comfortable here. Every night we have some drunk passed out in the bathroom to feed on.

l3ays3h | l3aujwg | [WP] If you would've known that that stupid river was the fountain of youth, you never would've drank from it. That was 300 years ago. You're permanently stuck at age 26. The only one you really have left in your life is your horse, who also made the mistake of drinking from it. | "You say it like it's a bad thing," the pale man flashed a grin with too many teeth. "Could have been worse, like drinking the fountain of youth as a baby. Could you imagine needing diapers for all eternity?"
"This doesn't make me feel any better," the 300-year-old, 26-year-old Rider grumbled.
"Let's try this again,"... | I walk.
I am called my things.
Vagabond. Wanderer. Homeless. All of those things true and also not.

l9vcqff | l9v7gq2 | [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. | *Step 1, anchor the soul. Unlike other healing magics (Druven - Ch.9, Erda – Ch. 37), Keanric healing is uniquely harsh on the indivisible soul and precautions are needed regardless of physical condition, lest one triggers Soul Collapse (Ch. 2).
