[WP] For every 10 times you save someone's life, you get 1 opportunity to escape death. Your "lives" is shown as a glowing number on your arm. Waking up with a horrible hungover after a wild night, you see in the corner of your eye on your wrist the number 700.000.000 | I guess when all is said and done, you truly have never lived until you have one of those: “What the fuck happened last night?” moments.

[WP] You have undeniably been a good person your whole life, however, due to your abject loathing of God himself, you are condemned to Hell. | Fuck him.
You think an all powerful deity would be a little more understanding, especially since I spent most of my life working for free in Palestine, as a doctor. Yeah, I called a couple people assholes now and then, but how does that land you in hell?

Tom sighed. His knees cracked as he stood up, his back ached. Pulling his clipboard of his belt he turned toward, The Invader... or was it The Infester… maybe the Eviscerator?

“Um, it’s Hole of Pains and Agonies,” the mousy voice projected from within... | "And just what is that supposed to be?" Marve stared at the quarterstaff which had a sword tangled onto one end with a bit of frayed rope, and a war-hammer head pounded onto the other.
