The Terrans contributed through their internal chaos. Their governments were often corrupt, and there were many power - hungry individuals willing to do anything for control. This led to a lot of backstabbing and violence within their own ranks. The Zerg, on the other hand, were a force of pure destruction.

The Protoss, despite their attempts at nobility, had to make some tough and often morally grey decisions in the face of the Zerg threat, which added to the darkness.
The Slender Man originated from a fictional creation on the internet. It was made up by someone as part of a creepy pasta (internet horror story).

One example could be 'The Road' by Cormac McCarthy. It depicts a father and son's harrowing journey through a post - apocalyptic wilderness, which has similar themes of a parent and child trying to survive while on the run.

And 'Medic's Secret Garden' which reveals a hidden, peaceful place the medic has created for himself to relax and conduct his more esoteric experiments.
Poison Ivy's origin story in DC involves Pamela Isley, a botanist. She was a brilliant student but was mistreated by her professor. Through a series of experiments gone wrong and exposure to various toxins and plant - based substances, she became Poison Ivy. Her transformation gave her a connection to plants and a hatred for those who harm nature.

The plot could involve Arya being kidnapped by a group of bandits. They gag her to keep her quiet as they plan to ransom her. But Arya uses her training to manipulate the situation. She might try to communicate with other captives or find a way to get the gag off and fight back.
Since I haven't read it, I can't say for sure. But I assume the main character would be the lazy dungeon master.
The impact of the March for Life on policy - making could also be a top story.
