I just wanted to use magic too Refer to usage of a skill as casting that skill.

More friends is good Use diplomacy on an inanimate object.

I swear it's true! Use bluff on an inanimate object.

Take an interest in the setting Spend more than 15 minutes interrogating an inanimate object to learn its backstory.

I'm getting so many cool powers Invite a ghoul to bite your neck because you thought it was a vampire.

Not What it Looks Like: Your character gains a reputation diametrically opposite of their actual nature/alignment.

How I got it -- Playing Shadowrun, my character is a Sniper, covering the rest of the team on an infiltration mission one rainy day. The team ends up triggering an alarm, causing the Mission "Boss", a tough combat mage who was out at the time, to come racing back.

My character sees him coming down the street on a motorcycle, and decides to buy her team some time. So she takes a shot at him. I get a ridiculous amount of successes, and she hits him right in the throat. He glitches the resulting piloting skill roll(70mph+rain+shot in the throat) and skids underneath a truck, where he cracks his head open on the vehicle's driveshaft. Blood flows down the wet streets. With the Boss suddenly dead, the team takes case of the remaining guards, finishes the run, and we book it.

Surveillance footage of the shot goes viral, with many Shadowrunners saying my character had to have been a cold-blooded killer to make that shot, and used a tranq dart just to show that he/she could.

Yes, I said Tranq dart. My character is a kind of a pacifist, and she almost exclusively uses Tranquilizer, Gel, and Shock rounds unless absolutely necessary(or sufficiently pissed).

God Among Men- Having towns folk seek you out but you've cast invisibility and silence on yourself.

Pizza Break!: The party has done something so odd and so unexpected that the DM needs at least 30mins of time to reprep everything following the incident.

Based on a true story of a goblin who used a wish he had been granted to shift the alignment of a major evil NPC to good. Thus leaving the horde of orcs no real leadership and averting a major war.

The Kyuubi no Kitsune Take your eighth iteration of the Magical Tail feat.

What? Fennekin is Evolving! As a Kitsune, take at least one level of Wizard and have a wand be your thingy for Arcane Bond. Choosing the Fire Elemental School is optional.

I was going to make one called "Destiny Bond" for taking your opponent down with you, but that's already been covered.
