Plot Gods offer you a choice between one off these four life modifications:
- Old Money: A Mandela effect takes place. Your parents and grandparents are still yours, wife and children, etc, but you had ancestors that were either 19th century robber barons, or aristocrats, or both. You recall being raised in high society, hobnobbing with kings and Rockefellers. When you reach(ed) eighteen, you receive(d) a trust fund of at least $250 million, possibly more. You can still recall the defunct timeline.
- Guardian Angel: You get a guardian angel. He’s invisible, intangible, and rarely communicates. But he does act to prevent various disasters, like auto collisions, slipping on ice, shooing muggers away, healing you if you get badly ill/injured, and other such feats. He may occasionally warn you not to do something that will turn out badly. You cannot command him; he acts at his own discretion.
- Mage’s Magnificent Mansion: You can cast this at will as a 20th-level mage, as the 3.5 D&D spell, no limit to duration. If you want the invisible gate to open at a new location, the Mansion moves to accommodate you. If you want, you can accelerate the time frame within the Mansion so that it moves 100x faster than outside time (can reset to normal time frame at will). Possessions remain safely stored within the mansion even if you temporarily "uncast" the spell.
EDIT: Sorry, my bad. I meant that if you're outside the mansion, you can recreate a new entrance (the old one is rendered defunct). Sorry, it's not a teleporter for you, yourself, although you could ferry people and possessions inside it.
- Virtual Reality: You get an aviator's cap with goggles (looking very much like Snoopy the Dog’s, lol). When you place the goggles over your eyes, you get immersed in a virtual reality as realistic as that of the Matrix film. Place the cap on your head, speak the scenario you desire, and then lower the goggles, and that’s the program you’re in. If you die in the scenario it's all good; it's just a program, you're still fine in real life.
If you want to opt out, the Plot Gods give you the consolation prize of a purple poker chip. You can use this to get out of any one traffic violation. So, if you get, say, a parking ticket, use the chip and it goes away (so does the chip).
