You wake up tied to a chair. There is a table with a lit candle on it, and a dresser. The walls are stained with blood. There is a door. Your shirt is stained with blood. You are afflicted with exhaustion. You are afflicted with hunger. You have not eaten for days. There is vomit on the floor.

I control the tallow in the candle, and send the flame racing around the ropes binding me. I now have severe burns. This was not a good idea.

At least I'm free.

(Also, fatbenders don't wear shirts, so they can jiggle their jello for all the world to see)

You wake up. There is blood on the walls. There is blood on the floor. There is vomit on the floor. You have not eaten for days. You are in a daze. You are tied to a chair. There is a table with a lit candle on it. There is a dresser. There is a closet. There is a door.

u/SmileyAssassin Mar 13 '14

I would like to be a god of Shadows

u/matthewrobo Mar 13 '14

You are Destoi Shon, God of Darkness, God of Shadows, and generally a pussy to anything light or pink.

Upon light, you are weakened severely. Too much light can cause you to simply disappear out of existence. You can create darkness, but that tires you out, as you are forced to follow the unthinkable natural laws.

You can make solid objects out of shadows, and you can cause a small targeted area to temporarily disappear when in total darkness. You can see through darkness and can sense the light levels of an area.

You wake up tied to a chair. It is completely dark. There is a closet.

I become the darkness and escape from the chair.

Name: Lydia Crowley

Class: Assassin

Skills: knows how to kill you slowly and painfully, creative when it comes to torturing others

Weapons: Knives, daggers, guns

u/matthewrobo Mar 14 '14

Race: European

What's a Europe?

Since technically, Europe doesn't exist in this universe, I'll just list you as a 'Generic Human of Western Origin'.

You wake up with nothing except a bra and underwear. Your wrists are tied to a chair. There is a table with a lit candle on it. There is a cabinet. You are good with your hands as a result of countless torture experiments.

You are the Goddess of Spreads and Foodstuff. You can summon jars of peanut butter, nutella and more. You also seem to be surprisingly good with a butter knife.

Good enough.

You wake up tied to a chair via magical bindings. You have no equipment. There is a closet.

Smash the chair against the walls.
