Description My brain game of choosing random prompts to create new characters/story ideas continues! Not all of them have been gold, but I have some serious contenders here, I think, that could survive a proper scripting!

Fun idea I think the vampire idea (#1) and the time travel store (#4) sound like they could be really solid and interesting to see!

Two of my favourites. That and the hapless reporter - which would be very difficult to write. It might be beyond me, honestly.

Sometimes with stories like the reporter idea that are really open-ended and novel I've found it's helpful to pick a larger central plot idea that drives things and that everything else can revolve around (ie. he has an ability that is first centered in his everyday life, but then maybe there's a world ending apocalyptic event he either sets in motion with his ability or that he discovers and is trying to prevent, or maybe he's an investigative journalist instead and uncovers some big evil plot device, etc).

Also, combining separate ideas from the list can help create something more nuanced and interesting
