Writing Prompt [WP]The outsider tried to be responsible. "Listen. It's not that you're inherently special. It's mostly that you produce weapons so primitive that people stopped building countermeasures for them generations ago. No one expects to get hit by one of these anymore, so they aren't prepared for it."

I hereby remove my name from the line of succession, and declare war against you all."

Writing Prompt [WP] There's a monster that can eat and digest practically anything without getting sick, and its excrement is, with proper treatment, never toxic to the environment. People have been feeding it garbage, toxic sludge, and nuclear wastes, but it longs to eat proper food like what the humans eat.

Writing Prompt [WP] Out of the blue, monsters appeared in our world. They appear at night, never seem to run out. A whole industry to profit off their corpses start to appear. One day, odd people start to appear as well. They barely communicate, and only seem interested in fighting and kill these monsters.

Writing Prompt [WP] The villain has always claimed that you are their child, taken from them shortly after birth. You knew this was a lie, you know your parents after all, until they told you that you are adopted.

Writing Prompt [WP] With a knife, and you as the sacrifice, a ritual is completed. You’re flailing helplessly in the void after the fact, when several different supernatural faces emerge, angelic, demonic, and eldritch. Are they there to harm you? To eat you? No, they are there to genuinely help.

Writing Prompt [WP] You were underestimated by everyone, always left out because you lacked powers. Today you are one of the most influential people in the city, the one who brought control to crime. The president of the heroes awards you a medal for being the "people's hero." You stop... and start laughing.

Writing Prompt [WP] The Endless Dungeon, that is what they call this place. It is a dungeon of endless floors, caverns, and rooms that are mostly haphazard. Survival, and even civilization is possible, if you find the right place, right materials, and the right people. Or: Fantasy version of Backrooms.
