Every city or town you visit, there’s a chance you’ll be recognized as one foretold in a prophecy…

r/

Any town or city you enter, even multiple times, there’s a 25% chance people will think you are the one in an ancient prophecy. Of that prophecy, half the time you’ll be able to save that place or bring prosperity for years to come, and the other half, you’re the one that will doom it to eternal ruin.

The catch is that you have no actual powers; you’re just a normal person trying to enjoy your vacation or return back home. Also that prophecy gets collectively wiped from every citizen’s memories when you leave.

Either way, good or bad, you’ll be bothered to no end. How do you deal with this?

    Step in and out of the town / city limits, testing the reaction of the first person you see each time. If no reaction, it’s safe to enter.
