Continuing the discussion from Roleplaying as odd things:
Riffing off another topic, I thought it’d be fun to create our own Role-Play Generator. Not only will it be a ginormous list of lots of potential role-play ideas, but you can also use our very own forum Discobot to roll you a couple a random ones.

To play the game you just ask Discobot to roll the dice for you by typing:
@discobot roll 2d120
The first number is Player 1’s character, and the second Player 2’s. If you need more players then change the 2d120 into however many players you need.
If you roll a double you get to be two of the same, and Dom/sub according to taste.
Or, as a simple alternative if you’re playing at home, you can roll 1d120 instead for one number, and pair that role with its natural partner.
So, there you go. Have a roll and add in your own fun scenario descriptions below.
(And a big thank you to everyone who helped make the list. )
