[WP] I’ve started hearing a voice that gives me random instructions like “step into this alley, wait 30 seconds, then leave”. I don’t know the outcome of these instructions, but I know bad things happen if I ignore them.

[WP] Every work of fiction ever created exists in an alternate universe, and we've just made contact. The news has been met with a mix of awe, terror, and confusion. As a copyright lawyer working for Disney, however, your life in particular has become an absolute nightmare.

[WP] Chaos Magic is the simplest form of magic to understand, but the hardest to learn. All one has to do is perform a unique ritual for each spell, whilst believing with absolutely certainty that it will work. The more complicated the ritual, the more powerful the spell.

[WP] A few hundred years ago a powerful lich managed to seal his soul into his bloodline instead of a physical object ensuring as long as his family lasts he shall remain. This has effectively reduced his existence to being a grandparent who is really pushy about grandkids
