conversations.value: It may not be the end of the world, but it’s the end of yours! You’re dead, and receiving your final reward: Heaven or whatever it was you were promised. Your story isn’t over, though. Perhaps you died from illness, a battle or a stupid accident. Whatever the reason, yesterday you were considering the mundane, and today you’ve joined the choir invisible or whatever. The God/s you’ve always believed in came through and sent you to your reward. You’re in your dream home with your dream spouse and your dream neighbors and everything you have ever wanted. The food tastes better than and the night skies have the perfect amount of stars. Things are just... perfect...

conversations.value: Your time's done, your story told, and you're OK with that. Now you're helping the next generation find their way, even though you know they'll discount your experience and they'll learn by making their own mistakes.

conversations.prefix: Kindly Mentor:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: If pushed to choose, you usually do the right thing, but you'd prefer not to make a choice at all. Your burrow is your favorite place, whether it's a literal or a mental/emotional place you retreat to when life gets to be too much.

conversations.prefix: White Rabbit:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You and He were so close, used to create whole worlds, but things went south, and You were locked up for thousands of years. Your revenge, short and sweet, wasn't enough. You need more vengeance to make up for your lost years.

  Suggested Weakness: Divine Hubris
conversations.prefix: Vengeful Goddess:

  Suggested Weakness: Bull-headed
conversations.prefix: Single-minded Vigilante:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: As long as a place has books, you're happy. And Heaven is full of ones you've never seen before. You know a lot about mythology and other religions, afterlives, and histories. You also know books are safer than people.

  Suggested Strength: Photographic Memory
  
  Suggested Weakness: Weakling
conversations.prefix: Bookish Investigator:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: In life you used your money as a shield against people who called you ignorant for not finishing high school. Not having money in Heaven might be a stumbling block, but you're a self-made person; you did it once, you can do it again.

conversations.prefix: Nouveau Riche GED Holder:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You're more comfortable with the illusion of Heaven's perfection, because you *know* what's behind it all. Or at least, you're pretty sure. You had one meeting with The Big Guy so you're sure you have the whole thing pegged.

  Suggested Weakness: Superstitious
conversations.prefix: The Insider:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Your job taught you more than coffee — how to listen, how to parse information, how to not really care much about it. You let life — and now afterlife — roll off you. As long as you get your fair share of the tips, you're good.

  Suggested Strength: Fleet Wit
  
  Suggested Weakness: Close Lipped
conversations.prefix: Capitalist Barista:

  Suggested Weakness: Addictive Personality
conversations.prefix: Alcoholic:

  Suggested Weakness: Justification
conversations.prefix: World Traveler:

conversations.value: If you see it, you remember it. This helped in school, and helps in winning arguments with your friends.
conversations.prefix: Photographic Memory:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: No one thinks on their feet faster than you. Your wit is your strongest asset when getting out of — and sometimes into — trouble.
conversations.prefix: Fleet Wit:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You're always fiddling with things; if you accidentally break something, don't worry. You'll fix it. Give you a screwdriver and a soldering iron and you'll turn the world into a giant ant car or something.
conversations.prefix: Tinkering:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Sometimes you get by because you're too stupid to know that you should have failed. You jump when your friends balk. You won't stop gambling when you're down $1000, yet you come out ahead at the end of the night.
conversations.prefix: Brave, Lucky, and Stupid:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: God put you on a path, and whether it was your punishment or reward, you're going to do what you've been told to do, come Hell or high water. Literally.
conversations.prefix: Divinely Inspired:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You have many lifetimes of living under your belt, giving you a unique look at the world and your very, very young companions and their trivial problems.
conversations.prefix: Wisdom of the Eons:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You know everyone and everyone knows you. And if they don't, they want to. You're the person to whom strangers feel the need to tell their life stories.
conversations.prefix: That Kind of Face:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Nothing fazes you. You have emotions, but you keep them under strict control. You never lose your temper, burst into tears, or buy candy in the checkout aisle. You are the opposite of compulsive.
conversations.prefix: Don't Cry Out Loud:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You're so attentive that you can spot lies and omissions when you talk to people; even while you show them compassion, you can spot the flaws in their stories. You also make a good book editor.
conversations.prefix: Good Listener:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Maybe it's your pheromones, maybe it's just the way you act, but animals trust you. You can calm wild horses, rescue stray dogs, and have almost a sixth sense when trying to read them.
conversations.prefix: Friend to Animals:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You want to make up for your past crimes, and you want to so badly you will go to any and all lengths to do the right thing.
conversations.prefix: Repentance:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: "Just one more won't hurt" is your private motto. You're convinced you can quit any time. Once you find something you like, you hold onto it like a monkey with its fist in a jar, unwilling to drop your treasures to get free.
conversations.prefix: Addictive Personality:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: God has willed it. Whether it's the god you worship or the god you once were, you're divinely chosen to do what you want to do, and that means everyone else's opinion is crap. You know what's best. Divine, you know?
conversations.prefix: Divine Hubris:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: When you love, you love hard. When you hate, it's consuming. When you collect, there are no action figures left in town. When you count, you ensure it's correct — more than once. No margin for error, no matter how long it takes.
conversations.prefix: Obsessive:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You don't need all the information and you don't need permission. When you get an idea in your head, heaven help whoever stands in your way. This often gets results, but when it gets you into trouble, more trouble follows.
conversations.prefix: Bull-headed:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You see everything through Him- or Her-colored glasses. You wonder what they'd think about what you're doing right now, and God help you if they're in the same room as you.
conversations.prefix: Unrequited Love:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You're absolutely convinced in your skill at something, whether it's arts or singing or leadership or with the object of your affection. You just cannot hear criticism because they clearly can't see your glory and talent.
conversations.prefix: Blind to Inadequacy:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: It's simply not fair that your physical inadequacies followed you to the metaphysical plane, but let's face it, you weren't the buffest, strongest, fastest, most agile person around in life, and you're not in the afterlife either.
conversations.prefix: Weakling:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: It could be black cats, it could be wearing the same unwashed socks for every baseball game, but some part of your brain is convinced the world will crumble if you don't follow the pointless rules you've put in place to follow.
conversations.prefix: Superstitious:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: If telling people about something would just worry them, why bother? They didn't need to know about your fatal illness when you were alive, and they don't need to know about the bad, uncontrollable things in the afterlife either.
conversations.prefix: Close Lipped:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Things that don't count: calories on holidays, kissing under mistletoe or while drunk, laws broken where no one got hurt and you didn't get caught. You can explain it away, and you're essentially a good person. Right?
conversations.prefix: Justification:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Lying by omission is still lying, but you're so afraid the others will find out your secrets and judge you for them that you hide details of your life.
conversations.prefix: Secretive:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You let people walk all over you because you're afraid — of them, of being disliked, of confrontation, of being alone. "Don't rock the boat" is your motto. It's time to find some self worth and stand up for yourself.
conversations.prefix: Grow a Backbone:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You may be older, you may have already had your adventures, but it's not yet time to hang up your weapon and uniform and make way for the younger people. There are still plenty of stories left for you.
conversations.prefix: Regain Your Story:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Your former nemesis wasn't the only person who wronged you, and you've got plenty of rage to go around. There's another who deserves your wrath.
conversations.prefix: More Vengeance:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Kids have it easy; their impulsiveness and emotional reactions are easily forgiven, they can be irresponsible, and a video game keeps them happy for hours. You're still like this and you're well past childhood. Grow up.
conversations.prefix: Grow Up Already!:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: There are no classifieds or Craigslist in the afterlife, so you must do actual legwork to find your lost love, or the person that caught your eye once upon a time.
conversations.prefix: Missed Connections:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Your parents didn't believe in you. Your teachers thought you were slow. Your friends tolerated you. Your spouse despised you. And now you're dead. But you can still prove yourself and make a difference. Step up.
conversations.prefix: Prove Them Wrong:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You're not great at mastering your emotions, and your temper makes you feared among your peers. People will trust you more if you master that fire inside you. Perhaps look for the source of the rage? Just an idea.
conversations.prefix: Master the Rage:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Something has consumed your life and afterlife. Grief, loss, fear — whatever it is, it's a heavy burden. You must find the thing, or do the act, that allows you release.
conversations.prefix: Let Go:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You hurt someone in your past, and you hid from it during life. You have another chance in the afterlife to make it right.
conversations.prefix: Never Too Late:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Someone you once loved has been damned unjustly, and now it's in your power to find them and free them.
conversations.prefix: Wrongly Jailed:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Gods have forgiven you, but you're not there yet. It's going to take something pretty big to finally put your past to rest, but you're determined.
conversations.prefix: Forgive Yourself:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: After hundreds, perhaps thousands, of years cursed to wander, can you find a place to call home?
conversations.prefix: Homeland:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Years of vengeance, or sloth, or irresponsibility, lie behind you. Can you find a new purpose, a new way of life?
conversations.prefix: New Purpose:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Mysteries still abound in Heaven; sometimes they're even magnified. You must find the answer to a mystery, whether it's why someone did something back on Earth, or why a certain god made a certain choice within a religion.
conversations.prefix: Learn Why:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You've felt helpless your whole life. In the afterlife you're handed power. Can you find it in yourself to wield it?
conversations.prefix: Find Your Power:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Well, the Grail itself is on Earth, of course, but there are plenty of holy relics that are squirreled away in the afterlife, and one of them is calling to you.
conversations.prefix: The Holy Grail:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Sometime in your past, you were split. Part of you died. You need to find that piece of yourself and become whole again.
conversations.prefix: Your Lost Self:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: For so long you were part of the chaos, sowing and never reaping. Time to take control and make the world — or the afterlife anyway — a better place.
conversations.prefix: Control the Chaos:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: We are parents to our children, but also metaphorical parents to more people.
conversations.prefix: Good Parent:

conversations.value: The world shatters around you. Will you help it rebuild?
conversations.prefix: Rebuild:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Dependent on others for your whole life, is it possible for you to appreciate solitude and your own company?
conversations.prefix: Joy in Solitude:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Oddly sized gaudy paper with faces of celebrities, hell notes are still considered the currency of the Chinese afterlife, and they grease the wheels of the bureaucracy of Hell.
conversations.prefix: Hell Notes:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Stolen and wielded by Susanoo, this katana is divinely sharp and capable of cutting through reality. A powerful weapon, also useful for travel.
conversations.prefix: Izanami's Sword:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: He may be dead, but he appears in your head, offering to help you with whatever he knows.
conversations.prefix: Lost Soul:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Hold tightly to these; they can be used as currency in some places, as ironclad armor in other places.
conversations.prefix: Stolen Secret:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: A magical sword that comes and goes as heroes have need, never staying for too long.
conversations.prefix: Metal Tiger:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: The sweetest thing in the world to any god. Keep it and enjoy? Or barter it with someone powerful?

conversations.prefix: Jet:
conversations.from: gpt

conversations.prefix: Jeweled Souls:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: A mark of divinity, your army of vengeance, living hidden in your hand. One time use against huge combatants, it will also give away any secret you're trying to hide.
conversations.prefix: Swarm of Flies:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: The Valkyries teach Odin to knit before Ragnarok. Afterward it's soaked in his blood. It's a pity to let such a nice potholder go to waste, not to mention the blood might hold some of the dead god's power.
conversations.prefix: Odin's Knitting:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Judeo-Christian perfection. Puffy clouds and harps and complete boredom.
conversations.prefix: Heaven:
conversations.from: gpt

conversations.prefix: Outskirts of Heaven:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Fire! Torment! It's possible Bugs Bunny is here being snarky, but probably not.

conversations.prefix: Dog Heaven:

conversations.value: If God and the Devil really were eons old, and they really were fighting, carnival games and checkers would be much more interesting than flaming swords and all that.
conversations.prefix: Carnival:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: How you died is important. What you believed more so. The afterlife that was promised is yours and its just... perfect... Perfect ennui sets in. Why?
  
  When you begin to wander you find a dreary road. It is choked with wandering souls. Souls who left their eternal rest and became lost. Eventually, your road crosses another and then another till you find yourself in a maze of criss crossing roads paths and tracks. There the sun breaks through the gloom...

conversations.value: How you died is important. What you believed more so. The afterlife that was promised is yours and its just... perfect... Perfect ennui sets in. Why?
  
  When you begin to wander you find a dreary road. It is choked with wandering souls. Souls who left their eternal rest and became lost. Eventually, your road crosses another and then another till you find yourself in a maze of criss crossing roads paths and tracks. There the sun breaks through the gloom...
conversations.prefix: The triage of the Crossroads:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Share your death story. What were the circumstances that shook you from your mortal coil. What strength or weakness contributed to your passing? As they say, the devil is in the details.
conversations.prefix: The manner of your passing.:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Belief. Whatever and whenever it happened was all that mattered.  It doesn't matter what came after or before. If you were lucky enough to have once felt you were destined for a promised land that is where you find yourself now. Share all the ways in which your heaven is absolutely perfect and then share why thats a problem. 
conversations.prefix: Perfect Ennui:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: There was something about your death that you keep flashing back to. Perhaps it was a moment of strength that gives you purpose. Or was it a tragic secret you aren't even prepared to admit to yourself? Most like it was some complex emotion that you just can't shake. Either way, therein lies an important seed of personal growth. 
conversations.prefix: Flash back to your Passing :
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Whatever the reason that drove you from your promised reward there will always be a part of your soul that longs to return. Where ever you are, what ever you are doing, this card will take you back there. 
  
  But will you be able to find your way out again?
conversations.prefix: Your own, personal heaven.:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: The road is awash with aimless and wandering souls. They mumble pleasantly and gesture fondly to conversational partners who aren't there. Some lay upon the ground in blissful sleep. Others smile into the middle distance, vacuously. You can approach them, touch them even slap them across the face and they will spare you only the vaguest of attentions before becoming lost in their own, non existent, world. But wait... There. Down the road. It looks like someone else is just as confused and distraught as you are.
conversations.prefix: The Lost:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Home to the infinite stories the universe may hold. Probably would be more accurately named "The Library" but "The Archive" sounds much more official.
conversations.prefix: The Archive:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: A line, apparently. It does match the purgatory vibe, though. Waiting around. Forever.
  At least you have some company...
  
  The souls waiting with you do not match the eyes of the Lost - no, they seem impatient, rude, and very much aware of your presence. Some seem aware of what's going on, where the line is leading, and why they're there - others still haven't realized that they are no longer alive.
conversations.prefix: Where the Trolley Tracks Lead:

conversations.prefix: Which Way?:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Roe is a merchant of shaped objects. The objects can be of any shape, size, texture, consistency or complexity her clients desire. Roe will simply pick up one of the many gewgaws that litter her veranda and reshape it before everyones eyes. All Roe asks in return is the story of your personal heaven and how you awoke, your companionship and perhaps any raw material you may have brought with you. 
  
  Roe is a fine host, afraid of the river creepers and has a disturbing secret.
conversations.prefix: The Matadero :
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Two gems, a sapphire and an emerald, have tumbled from that secret pocket in Roe's robe sleeve. Were these what gave The Shaper the ability to affect Emma and the swords woman without touching them?
  
  
  
  
conversations.prefix:  'Rewards' :
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: There was always more to Roe than what was shaped to meet the eye. In a blind searching manner dark tentacles slither up the Matadero's stairwell. The tentacles are made up of the mashed together carcasses  of unfortunate lost souls. 
  The troupe runs for Al's gangplank and pushes off managing to put some space between themselves and the Matadero just as it begins to crumble apart freeing a growing mass of tentacles into the river to pursue them.

conversations.from: human
conversations.value: "... But to that second circle of sad hell,
  Where 'mid the gust, the whirlwind, and the flaw
  Of rain and hail-stones, lovers need not tell
  Their sorrows. Pale were the sweet lips I saw,
  Pale were the lips I kiss'd, and fair the form
  I floated with, about that melancholy storm" -Dante

As are your wife's. Both sides of your family are blessed with extended relations all over the country and world and you love them all. It doesn't stop there either.

You then spent your thirties as a festie. Traveling the world from festival to festival reveling in drug induced, sex soaked PLUR.
