[WP] Among the ranks of the knights you are considered unstoppable. Unbeatable. The greatest warrior to have ever lived. Your secret is that you a unique weapon, one forged to send hails of burning lead at your foes... its a shotgun. You carry a shotgun. | You know what the great thing about having a gun in a world of bows and swords? You’re a lot more deadly than anyone else.
Do you also know what the downside is? It’s that you’re also a hell of a peacock out on the battlefield, and trust me, you never want to be a peacock out on a battlefield, especially against the a... | Known as the mighty Flash Warrior of the North, I readied my revolver.

[WP] You're a supervillain, and you have never been so utterly beaten. All of your tricks, all of your weapons, completely outdone by a prepubescent girl and a stuffed animal.

"You heard me," the girl said, putting one hand on her hip while clutching her stuffed dragon with her other hand.
"You mean you're not gonna kill me?"
"Not unless I have to. I really don't want to."

Silence.
It actually took me a moment to realize.
There was SILENCE!
