[WP] "Seeking wealth is not inherently evil. Like power, gold is a tool that can be used for both good and evil. Therefore, squire, when someone says that they "only in it for the coins", make them elaborate what are the coins for, THEN judge their character from that."

[WP] You are a Grimm, a hunter. Your parents have trained you for all your life as hard as humanly possible and beyond that. Now as you stand by their corpses and a Wesen (Creature) in front of you, you know why.

[WP] As you passed by them, the street mime moved behind you and very hastily performed the invisible box. The next thing you heard was glass shattering as something unseen broke through the barrier. The mime looked at you and shouted "Run! I'll hold it back!"

[WP] You just invented a machine that transports books from alternate dimensions. You take a look at what came out of it when you activated it. It seemed like an ordinary Harry Potter book. Then you saw the author. Sir Terry Pratchett. You can’t wait to read it.

[WP] You inherit a mirror along with other items from your late mother. You find yourself gazing longer and losing a little bit more of yourself each time you pass it in the hall. You finally know why she took her life, but it still calls you...

[WP] Gregnok is both your worst assassin, and the best. They have never managed to sneak into any location, but at the same time, they've never actually failed at killing the target, so you can't actually fire them. But they're also awful for your guild's reputation.

[WP] The Knight was sent to slay a dragon. However, he soon realised it was no the dragon keeping princess in a tower. It was the evil princess holding a female half hunan-half dragon person captive on a chain. You must free the dragon.

[WP] Slaying the dragon was hard enough, but the knight had absolutely zero idea what is being hidden in that tower. Everyone says it's a fair princess, but upon entering her quarters, you are immediately hit with an aura of immense dread, and terror. This tower isn't a prison, it's a vault.

[WP] A shapeshifter often takes the form of the King to get free drinks in the local Inn. One day a group of knights quickly approch him "Thank God we found you, we thought something terrible had happened!"

[WP] Your party had slayed their way through a nation of undead, and as you reach the lich in his castle, his monologue makes enough sense to have the entire party question their campaign, before submitting without a fight.
