Style: corporate realism prompts

3 months ago

A mundane-looking man in a wrinkled, ill-fitting business suit stands with unsettling confidence in a drab, fluorescent-lit government office. This is “Red Tape,” a villain whose superpower lies not in strength but in bureaucracy. Paperwork litters the room, towering spirals of manila folders swirl around him like armor, forming an impenetrable cyclone of administration. His briefcase, black and scuffed, hangs at his side, protected by ten-digit password locks and etched with bureaucratic insignia. Thick glasses mask his villainous smirk, reflecting wall clocks that tick in different time zones — none aligned, all oppressive. Signs reading “Processing…” glow dimly above cluttered desks and metal filing cabinets. The air is stale with the scent of toner and ink. His weapons are rubber stamps that slam with deafening finality, endless forms that duplicate each time one is completed, and thick binders of indecipherable legal codes. A Kafkaesque nightmare in corporate realism, his power isn’t violence — it’s stagnation. Heroes are trapped in legal snares, permits, and policy loops, their will eroded by administrative despair. Despite no combat prowess, Red Tape has halted more champions than armies could, dissolving hope one form at a time. Style: corporate realism, bureaucratic dystopia, minimalist surrealism, drab color palette, unsettling realism.

A mundane-looking man in a cheap business suit standing confidently in a government office, going by the alias “Red Tape.” His superpower is bureaucracy — he halts heroes with endless paperwork, zoning restrictions, and obscure legal loopholes. His weapons are rubber stamps, indecipherable regulations, and forms that regenerate the more you complete them. Stacks of folders spiral around him like armor, and he carries a briefcase locked by ten passwords. His villainous grin hides behind glasses, and the walls are covered in clocks set to different time zones and signs reading “Processing…” Despite no powers of strength or flight, he's defeated more heroes than any traditional villain — simply by slowing them down.
