Writing Prompt: And, It’s Going Fast, And…

Your character is on a boat. Maybe there’s a boat adventure, whether the adventure takes place on their boat or involving several boats in contest. Maybe engine troubles? Maybe pirates? Maybe a kraken? Maybe… Skittles? Or maybe not.

Writing Prompt: Alakazam!

Your character gets into an adventure involving a stage magician, but not that one. Unless your character is Lars, in which case it must do. What’s going on? Is this magician fighting your character? Are they on your character’s side? Or do they merely appear to be? Is there perhaps more than one magician or group of magicians, seeming to cast spells at each other? Is there any question in your…

Writing Prompt: Denouement

After their strife, hardship, and conflict (internal and external), your character finds peace. Perhaps it concludes only this particular arc of their life, and hard times are to come again. Perhaps this is a peace that will last them the rest of their life (however long that may be). Either way, at this moment, they probably don’t care (or they try not to think about it for a while). What does…

Writing Prompt: I Am The Night

Writing Prompt: I Am The Night

Your character goes in for some real vigilantism, as in vigilante justice. How high on the chaotic alignment do they land? Do they engage in some sabotage for the environment? Or for their own gain? Do they bring consequences to a villain who is untouchable by the law? Or something even less savory?

Writing Prompt: Pirates' Booty!

Writing Prompt: Pirates’ Booty!

Your character unearths an old treasure map! Its rhyming instructions lead to a series of deadly-looking traps, which would permit only the most moderately worldly or puzzle-oriented to pass, but at the end of the red dotted line lies an X, and X means treasure! Where on earth did your character find such a thing? And do they feel at all inclined to seek this treasure? Are they better suited to a…

Writing Prompt: Moment Of Silence

Writing Prompt: Moment Of Silence

Something bad happens in Baltimore. A disaster, or a supervillain, or something else. Heroes enact their heroism, and the immediate danger passes, but a lot of people die before it’s done. Among them, someone, or several someones, close to your character. What happened? Was your character involved in trying to prevent it? Either way, how do they take it? Who was it they lost? And what do they do?

Writing Prompt: Bug-Out Bag

Writing Prompt: Bug-Out Bag

Your character needs to run. Maybe a supervillain has found them, or maybe they are a supervillain and the law has found them. Maybe there’s a more mundane reason, like extended family, or going on an unplanned vacation. In any case, they have time to grab five (5) things from their house, base, and/or lair before they have to get out. What do they bring? Why?

Writing Prompt: Fallout 108

This week, your character has to deal with a threat related to radiation. Maybe they’re near a power plant that goes into meltdown, maybe they’re pursuing an international supervillain into Pripyat or some other Doctor No style nuclear lair. Maybe the seals fail under Facility 108 (our own Doctor No style nuclear lair). What do they do? What can they do? (I thought about titling this one…

Writing Prompt: Fakepolitik

If AEGIS has taught us anything in these five years, it’s that even without powers, superhumans are just as complicated as normal humans (if not more so).

And how might their powers make it all worse? She said what? Well,…

Writing Prompt: Apart From The Aqueduct And The Roads…

What do they do if no one cares?
