Prompt #57
You may be a villain, but not one of the really bad ones. You are actually just a low level thief.
However, you somehow accidentally acquired some kind of super-weapon, made to destroy superheroes (and everything in a 10km radius around them). Since you kinda like this world, you can’t risk this weapon getting in the wrong hands. So you look for a save way to destroy it.
Would be easier, if not every supervillain and superhero were after you (or more precisely: after the weapon).
Prompt #26
Once a group of young heroes saved the world from a great evil, like it has been foretold in a prophecy.
Now there is a new prophecy and you and your friends have to save the world from another great evil. Therefore you seek advice from the last heroes.
Turns out all of them now have PTSD. And one has depression. And another one has social anxiety. They are a mess.
So they try to convince you and your friends that it’s totally not a good idea to fight great evils when you are only a teenager.
Prompt #34
A supervillain and a superhero swap bodies because of some magical mishap during one of their fights. However, they both think that this is an ideal way to get some information about the other person’s plans, so they don’t tell anyone else.
But they are both horrible actors and therefore their hero-/villain-friends notice rather sooner than later, that something is amiss...
Prompt #50
A hero gets thrown into an alternate universe, where they are the villain. Then they save the world together with the alternate version of their archenemy, who is a hero in this alternate universe.
Prompt #77
When a supervillain gets amnesia because of a car crash, they forget everything about the past twenty years. Therefore, they don’t remember getting powers and becoming a villain. And since no one knows the villain’s secret identity, nobody comes looking for them.
So they live a normal life until they rediscover their powers one day. That day they decide to become a superhero.
Things get complicated, when the new superhero starts to remember their past...
Prompt #58
You are a villain.
Of course you are. Nobody ever cared about you, nobody ever helped you. Since you remember, you had to fight to survive. You learned early, that you had to rescue yourself, because nobody else would come for your rescue. Survival of the fittest was the only rule you ever learned.
So when the hero, your archenemy, saves your life and is injured in the process, you don’t understand.
You don’t understand why...
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 #66
A fairy, who is afraid of flying, and a dragon, who is scared of fire, save the world together.
Prompt #73
„Buu-huu, I’m a ghost.“
„Okay? I am human and I have an exam tomorrow, so it would be very nice, if you could just go away.“
„Wait, you can actually see me?“
„No. Now: shoo!“
Prompt #47
You are a witch and you took the wrong potion. That‘s not good. To your defense: the potions look all the same.
Anyway, now you are a frog and have to find someone stupid enough to kiss a frog. And that’s why you sometimes hate your life...
Prompt #64
There are aliens in your backyard.
Apparently it’s a family and they are on their way to a vacation in another solar system, but they must have taken a wrong turn somewhere. They ask you for directions (you can’t help). You ask them, if they want to come inside for a coffee (they do).
If you ever need inspiration, feel free to use these prompts :). I try to use gender neutral language, because I really don’t care what gender the characters of my prompts have.
