The Big Fantasy Hoopla Meme

This meme is, much like Magneto's temperament, somewhere between rage and serenity except replace rage with JRPG and serenity with LotR and other works of that nature.

VILLAGE PROMPTS
For before the adventure begins, a momentary rest mid-adventure, or all that time after the adventure when you have the rest of your life to live.

1. You're living a perfectly ordinary life, perhaps as a chicken farmer, but there's foreboding signs of evil approaching. Two or less tags after you exist you will end up probably being drafted into some kind of adventure. Strike a pose, shit is about to get real.

2. You're restocking supplies and you're pretty sure you're getting ripped off but you're pretty low on potions/herbs/hey wait how did this backwater village end up with silver swords and really classy amulets? Maybe you should pick up other stuff while you're at it?

3. It's a festival! Great timing! Awesome. Time to play minigames and chillax. At least for a little while.

4. You're in some seemingly innocent backwater village which seems innocuous (the ominous ruins five miles to the north aside) but it's hiding some deep secret that you will uncover. Maybe they're mass producing something vile. Maybe you're a spy in enemy territory. Or maybe you're completely wrong about all of the above but you will find out.

EXPLORATION PROMPTS
Home is behind, the world ahead.

1. Hey look, it's some spooky ruins five miles north of a suspicious village! Let's see what's inside!

2. It's the hidden woods that holds some legendary race...given the fantasy genre, probably elves, but it could also be kobalds, a unicorn or five, or maybe even a dragon. Let's see what's inside!

3. It's a spiraling tower that contains at least one Test of Virtue! Probably more! At the top is rumored to be some sort of legendary artifact of great power! Let's see what's inside!

4. ...you're not exactly certain how you ended up at the bottom of the ocean and why you're not drowning, but you're not going to argue! And there's probably some undersea cavern that leads to an expy of the lost city of Atlantis if not Atlantis itself! Let's see what's inside!

ACTION AND/OR ADVENTURE PROMPTS
Cue dramatic music.

1. The spooky thing you explored in the previous section - or, hey, maybe something else - is crumbling! You're trapped inside. The way you entered is blocked. You need to find a new way out. Hurry!

2. It's a monster! Actually, let's make it bigger. It's a boss monster! It's huge. It's epic. It will rend the flesh from your body (assuming you have flesh) if you let it. Fight! Fight and win!

3. The forces of Lord Elievy, the Black Rider (replace names as appropriate) are marching upon someone you happen to be fond of, or at least someone who's paying you. You - perhaps partnered with someone else, or maybe you're just alone - are going to go in and try to do some sabotage, or maybe spy/scout, or maybe join them, or maybe go on a suicidal mission to destroy them all by yourself.

4. You're riding something not standard in terms of mounts, like a hippogryph or a giant spider or whatever. Good luck.

CUTSCENE PROMPTS
This possibly could've been renamed 'climatic moment prompts' or 'dramatic moment prompts' but...really, let's face it.

1. Maybe it was the giant spider, or maybe the Black Rider dueled you one-on-one, or maybe it's a noble sacrifice but you're dying. You're choking out your last words dramatically and as it's a cutscene you're dead for good. And it's possibly quite sad.

2. You're dramatically sealing some portal that leads to the darkest reaches of the Stygian Abyss before evil can escape and threaten the land, nay, the universe once more. But there's always time for some dramatic confrontation. Maybe a noble speech. Maybe your body is the seal? Who knows. But be dramatic.

3. Big damn rescue time and you're doing the rescuing. Does anything else really need to be said? There's probably going to be at least one explosion.

4. The forces of evil have corrupted your body and your mind but through the help of your friend(s) you're on the cusp of purging it from your soul and gaining your own self once more! Alternatively, it's the exact opposite and you're about to become an evil puppet. Whoops.

Monsters, Mayhem, the deep darkness of the human soul. This is the meme for those tropes and ideals, the ones that change you and re-arrange you. Chose your side and follow the rules to horror movies in the following scenarios. Will you survive?

It goes without saying that this meme contains mature themes and is not appropriate for all audiences

1. Roll to decide, good guy or a bad guy.
2. Roll for your scenario.
3. Play it out, but stick to your sides.
4. So much profit it'll make your head spin.

1. You may be a victim, a cop, or the unwitting protagonist, but you are fundamentally good. There's no going back from that, something within you screams Do the right thing.
2. Whatever your reasons, whatever you do - you are a bad mamma jamma. You are making the choice to walk down the dark path regardless of it dominating your destiny. There is no going back. Do the wrong thing and enjoy it because it's fun as hell.

( Darkness and Death lie before you. Choose, do you live or do you die? )

You or your meme partner has been hurt, but don't worry! This time around it's not that bad. You can still limp your way out of this mess.

INJURIES.
1. Sprain/strain. How did you screw up walking?
2. Broken bones. Simple fractures still hurt.
3. Cuts. Hopefully one of you has a sewing kit.
4. Burns. Location, location, location. Let's pray this one isn't on your ass.
5. Concussion. No, they're most likely not holding up fifteen fingers.
6. Other. I'm not a doctor.

HOW'D IT HAPPEN.
1. Stupidity. You did this to yourself.
2. Accident. Is an unintentional attack still an attack?
3. Attack. Don't lie, you deserved it.
4. Other. It's probably still your own fault.

WHERE'D IT HAPPEN.
1. Home. Did you remember to invest in a first aid kit?
2. School/Work. This should be excellent for getting you out of doing stuff!
3. Outdoors. Predators like the smell of blood. Clean up asap.
4. In the water. Hopefully there aren't any sharks!
5. Other. Like a hospital. That'd be handy.
