[WP] "So tell us, What exactly do you hoard?" They blinked their reptile eyes lazily at the party of heroes standing victorious after the last battle of their quest. The dragon swung their tail in a mockery of a shy smile. All were uninjured and accounted for. What a great hoard indeed.

[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.

[WP] After standing up for justice publicly, numerous death threats were anonymously sent to you on the internet. Standing on the fine line between bravery and recklessness, you replied to them. You challenged them to a duel if they truly wish to kill you.

[WP] You are a literary thief, able to pull the words from fictional texts and manifest them in reality. However, these words will be irreversibly removed from every copy of that text, and its effects cannot be undone.

[WP] Browsing r/writingprompts, you can’t help but to notice all of the prompts that appears to have at least 1 reply in addition to the AutoMod but are empty when you actually click on them. Puzzled, you decide to investigate the matter.

[WP] You are the master of plot twists. You twist, twist and keep twisting even after the plot completely breaks, you twist again much more. You twist unlike any plot has twisted before. You are a serial twister.

[PM] Give me prompts to help me think of some character and plot ideas. I'm looking to write a Cyberpunk story without being too derivative of the series I'm watching right now (Cyberpunk Edgerunners). Bonus points if the prompt includes something to help make the world unique and different.

[WP] You’re great at detecting illusions, even if you can’t see through them, you know they’re there. Today you met a woman who had no active spells that you could detect. But no one could look that perfect!

[WP] The World you live in is one of Florapunk; so many different plants bioengineered into items and objects usable by the average citizen. You are this world’s equivalent of a mechanic, helping repair these botanical mechanisms.

[WP] The reason demons have become so popular among mortals in recent decades is because they've found out demons will ACTUALLY accept you for who you are. Everyone is welcome in Hell, and suffering as yourself among friends has become more attractive than an eternal reward alone, as someone else.
