Prompt #16

Magic is power. The ones who possess this power are guaranteed success.

Your magic has always been especially powerful. All your life you heard how incredibly talented you were. And you always knew, that with your gift, your future would be perfect.

But now... Now you‘ve lost it all. Your magic has been taken, by a creature, a monster, that feeds of magic.

With the magic, you have lost everything. Your privileges, your friends (who are all proud mages), your future.

What will you do now?

Prompt #15

You have seen movies where people swap bodies with other (random) people. You have laughed at them. Somehow it isn’t that funny, when it happens to you in real life. Especially since you’re only 10 years old and you swapped body with a supervillain. With a supervillain that has just been captured by the heroes.

You just hope that the supervillain won’t get into too much trouble in your body...

Prompt #14

Death just wanted to take one (1) vacation. Only two weeks on Mallorca. Death didn‘t have a vacation in 2.000 years. 2.000 years. They really deserved a break. It had only been two weeks. And now ... everything is a mess.

Death stares at their sibling, who had been their substitute for the last two weeks.

„What happend?“

„Well... funny story actually. And none of this ... uh... mess ... is my fault. Really.“

Prompt #13

There is a castle in the sky only reached by the few blessed humans, who have been born with wings. You haven’t been born with wings. However you decided that nevertheless one day you will reach the castle.

Prompt #12

A supervillain and a superhero are fighting when suddenly the villain just stops.

„Hold on a minute, I gotta get this“, the villain sais. The hero stares incredulously as the villain gets out a smartphone and starts talking.

„I told you, to only call in emergencies.... I put your food in the fridge... How can you even break a mikrowave? - Wait hold on, I don’t really wanna know. Can you just order take out? ... Awesome, you know where the money is?... Good. I don’t exactly know when I will be home, but see you later, kiddo... Yes, love you. Bye.“

The villain hangs up and turns towards the very confused hero.

„So, where were we?“

Prompt #11

You are a witch. But somehow you are very bad at it. Every time you try to help with magic, you only make everything worse.

So you thought: if your good spells somehow always turn out evil, maybe evil spells will end up doing something good. Well, you were wrong. And now heroes are trying to hunt you down...

Prompt #10

That awkward moment when you lift the mask of your archenemy‘s face and it turns out that your archenemy is also your best friend.

Prompt #9

When people die, they have to find their way to the life after. But you and your friends just don’t really see the point in making the effort to travel to an unknown destination, when you can just stay on earth, watch Netflix and scare people. Because honestly, being a ghost is kind of fun.

Prompt #7

You (a normal human kid) have been adopted by a vampire.

Prompt #6:

The superhero takes care of the de-aged villain without knowing, that the cute little kid is his archenemy.

Or, the villain has to take care of a de-aged hero (after one of their untested magical weapons had a surprising effect), knowing well, that the bratty (but still kinda cute) kid is his archenemy.

Prompt #5

You‘re a knight of the ruler of your country. Together with your comrades you‘re sent out to kill a dragon housing in the mountains. But your team comes into a blizzard and you somehow get split up. Alone in the mountains the dragon finds you. But instead of killing you, they help you and you soon become friends.

That’s when your team finds you and things get complicated...

Prompt #4:

You live in a world full of monsters. Vampires, Ghuls, Were-people, Shapeshifters, Yetis and other creatures are all normal in this world. And every monster thinks, that humans are extinct.

However you have a secret, that you keep from your friends: You are not really a vampire, you‘re one of the last living human beings.

Prompt #3:

You live in the world where you recognize your soulmate because the moment you see them, your vision goes from black and white to colorful.

Well this system sucks. Why? Because you‘re blind.

Prompt #2:

When you were born, you were sick and dying. Therefore your parents made a deal with a demon. However instead of your parents soul, the demon wanted the permission to possess you for six years.

On your 6th birthday the demon had already become your best friend, so you ask him to stay.

You are now 24 years old. The demon still possesses you and he is still your best friend. Describe your life.

Prompt #1:

You are from a family full of supervillains. So naturally they all want you to become a villain, too. Too bad, that you always wanted to be a hero.

That is, why you somehow ended up with two secret identities: One is a villain and one a hero. And maybe in the beginning it has been fun, but now you and your superhero-team have the assignment, to protect the newest super-weapon, while on the same time your family expect you to steal the weapon together with your sister.

You grin as the large crowd in front of you cheers your name. You calm them down and ask for anything you could help out with, and they respond by bringing out a large barrel of wine mixed with possum fur (or so it smelled).

"He's been stuck in there for days," the carrier pleads.

"Who?" You ask.

"Blocky."

"Terrible name," You frown. "But what's the thing stuck inside?"

The carrier took a moment to think and hesitantly said, "My firstborn, I think."

"Fair enough." You stare at the barrel. "Do you want the wine, or the child?"

"The wine, please."

You were an average mage when you fought a basilisk and were turned to stone. 1,000 years later, you awaken to find magic has decayed—and you are now a legendary archmage by today's standards.

Suddenly, an idea strikes you. You turn around to face the planet's burning atmosphere with a wicked grin, and you spot one of the smaller rocks. You pick it up with your bare hands and open your mouth to eat it.

You're immortal. You may as well use it to your advantage.

You stare at the stars and sigh. There are worse ways to discover you're immortal. Finding out after your starship exploded in deep space is definitely one of the worse ones.

You look out from where you're mopping in your house to see the hero run away from a falling piano that seemed to follow them wherever they ran. Even the evil lord looked rather taken aback.

You turn back inside. No one's going to suspect a goblin.

You are a lowly goblin with a mop that accidentally triggers a series of impossible rue goldberg interactions that ends with the demise of the fabled hero of light in the most anti-climatic way possible. Both the hero's party and the evil lord stand in shocked silence.

Your supervillain nemesis is little more than goofy comedy relief, always coming up with clunky machines and insane, nonsensical schemes. When a new dangerous villain appeared, your nemesis utterly destroyed them, and then continued on like nothing happened.

In the animal kingdom, humans are viewed like witches/warlocks: they MIGHT help you benevolently in your time of need, or they might eat you alive, or they might save you but keep you forever. So you know just how serious things are when they say to you, "Go get a human."

Me if I was a villain lmao

You purposefully became a cartoonish supervillain. Your evil schemes are stupid and hilariously idiotic, just so people can get a laugh at them. The heroes adore going after you, and the citizens love to watch them do it. The superhero business can be dark, but you always manage to make it fun!

Should I?

I found a bunch of like old ideas/writing prompts I had for Eddie when I was in that era of my life lol so should I post them for people to use?

It could be used for more than just him for other character or original ones idk I just wanna clear out my drafts

He didn’t have a name. His creator didn’t bother to name him. After the death of Dr. Frankenstein the creature roamed the earth, always rejected by everyone he met. And then he met a young man named Gomez Adams.

“You know how Holy Water is lethal to demons? Well, Hot Dog Water does the same thing to Angels.”

When God announced that every billionaire would die by Christmas, the race for the 1 trillion began

300 years ago, humanity was bestowed with three forms of immortality: body, mind, and – the rarest and least understood – soul. It is your 21st birthday and the evaluator is verifying your immortality. She removes her glasses and looks to you mournfully.

Humans are often abducted as exotic pets for aliens. One day, your owner enters with a book and starts trying to speak your language.

Thinkin bout the use of cars in whump,,,

Whumpee gets hit by a car

Whumpee is in a car accident

Caretaker is in a car accident and then emotional whump

Or

Whumpee gets in the car only for whumper to point a gun at them and tell them to drive

Whumpee gets in the car before being knocked out, whumper then gets into the front seat and drives

Whumper ties up whumpee and throws them in the back seat

Whumper ties up whumpee and throws them in the boot

The possibilities are endless,,,

So I know this is often played for comedy but

Tranquilliser darts??

😳😳😳

Idk man but theres the initial pain of getting hit, the confusion or panic, the slow stumbling collapse to the ground.

Then your antagonist waltzes on over all smug and scoops them up like a sack of potatoes. Yeah❤️

Exasperated caretaker/team member dialogue

“What part of stay there don’t you understand?!”

“I swear- you’ll be the death of me!”

“I’m going grey- You’re making me go grey.” “You are not going grey, you’re 25!”

“Are you trying to give me a heart attack?!”

“Okay, new rule- From now on your plan is not allowed to be ‘run in head-first and see what happens’.”

“Is asking you to shoot me a little ‘I’m not dead’ text every now and again really too much to ask??”

“So let me get this straight. You heard gun-fire. And you ran. Towards it?!”

“That’s it- You’re in time out.” “What?! I’m not a child-“ “I don’t care! Time out!”

“Must you bleed on everything I own??”

Big fan of characters who are just so done lmaoo, part 2??
