precision? they were thrown some distance away and made to blow everything up. control? they were drugged with power supressors when not in use. strategy? they only ever had to obey. prioritising? the.. last orders given....? fighting method? throwing themselves at the enemy and uncaring for their body + no idea what 'limited healing supplies' are bc they'd always get patched up immediately. chores? literally kept in a locked room and brought meals when scheduled what IS that.

Welcome to the 2026 Whumperless Whump Event, where we celebrate all kinds of situational, accidental and environmental whump! If this is your first time, welcome in--if you've been here before, thanks for coming back!
FAQ and text version under the cut!
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Where can I find the prompts list?
A: @whumperless-whump-event on Tumblr.
Q: How are the prompts divided?
A: Each day has a "title" or a vague theme, followed by two tropes and one dialogue prompt.
Q: Can I use the title as a prompt?
A: Absolutely.
Q: Do I have to use all of the prompts?
A: Not at all.
Q: Can I use all the prompts?
A: Absolutely.
Q: If I'm writing a chronological story, can I swap days to fit the timeline?
A: Yes, just make sure you tag your days and prompts appropriately. If you're writing for day 6, but you post it on day 12, tag day 6, not day 12.
Q: Can I have early or late entries?
A: Yes. This is a very laid back event, and meant mainly to inspire lots of whumperless whump. It's not a strict writing challenge.
Q: Is there an Ao3 collection?
A: Yes! This year's collection is linked here. The parent collection also includes 2024 and 2025--make sure you select 2026.
Q: Can I write [insert anything here]?
A: Yes. However, this blog will not reblog certain topics (ex. nsfw or suicide), so please tag your works appropriately, so anyone can filter out anything they don't want to see.
Q: Can I use AI?
A: No.
Q: Can a whumper be included in the prompt fill?
A: The short answer is no. The long answer is that you cannot have the role of whumper in your prompt fill (aka: no whumper-on-whumpee); however, if the character you want to be a whumpee or a caretaker happens to be a whumper, then as long as they are not fulfilling the role of whumper, it's fine. Also, if there is a whumper, it must be totally impersonal and faceless. Here are some examples for clarification:
A character's drink is spiked at a party.
OKAY: The whumper who spiked the drink is never mentioned and is completely faceless, and the story is directly about whumpee recovering.
NOT WHUMPERLESS: The whumper who spiked the drink kidnaps the whumpee.
A character is left alone in a storm.
OKAY: The character is stranded or lost.
NOT WHUMPERLESS: Whumper tied them to a post and left them in the storm.
A character is mugged on the street.
OKAY: The whumper is a stranger, faceless, and the focus is on Whumpee.
NOT WHUMPERLESS: The whumper is a stalker and there to kidnap Whumpee.
All in all, if your goal is to fulfill the event, then try to avoid a whumper. If you're using the prompts elsewhere, then ignore this, but in the spirit of the event, no whumper roles please.
Q: How do I tag my posts?
A: Tag with #whumperless whump event, #wwevent 2026 and #wwevent day [x](Don't just tag wwe, that's wresting.) Make sure to tag the fill type (art, fic, music, etc) with #fic, #art, #et cetera. Then, tag triggers and content warnings. Please put these first in the tag order! It just makes it easier to reblog.
Q: How do I get reblogged?
A: Mention this blog in your post! It's the easiest way for me to find you. Otherwise, I won't reblog it. (This also means if you do not want your post reblogged to the event, just don't mention the blog, and it'll stay private.)
Q: I disagree with something/have an issue with a prompt/want to address a problem. How should I do it?
A: Send me an ask and we can fix it. I am more than willing to work through any problems--I am human, and not without fault.
I think that's about it. That's a lot, so if you've got any other questions that aren't on the list, feel free to shoot me an ask. I'm happy to help!

runaway princess whumpee dragged home and brought to heel to ready her for a political marriage
princess abducted by one dragon who winds up being shared by many because theyâre in such high demand
mermaid princess scooped from the seas, abused by her captors, then sold to the nearest traveling show
princess heir to a magical bloodline taken and turned into a living weapon against her own kingdom
princess who has never known a dayâs sadness or hardship made prisoner and shown immeasurable cruelty by someone solely interested in ruining such softness
something i never see explored with caretaker or friend characters is what it's like to grow up surrounded by traumatised people, but have no trauma of your own. it feels like you're on the outside of this club that you can only get into by going through something Really Bad, even though the people inside the club are happy to welcome you anyway, you know you'll never actually fit in.
and fucked up as it sounds, you want to fit in. you want the awful things to happen to you. you feel envious of what they have, even if that thing is memories of the most awful things known to man and consequences that run your daily functioning into the ground.
you're not sick enough to relate to the sick people, but you've seen ever so slightly too much to fit in with the "normal" people. your problems seem so minimal compared to these life-altering horrors that the whumpees have been through, yet you're not coping anyway. so either you admit that the problem is yourself, or you find a reason to react that way.
give me caretakers that sit through whumpee's stories and swallow back envy. who actively go looking for danger and dodgy people in the hopes that they'll go through something that can put them on whumpee's level. who plan out how to make things worse in precise, structured detail, then get angry with themself because what the fuck are they doing and it doesn't count if it's fucking orchestrated.

Iâve been thinking of that aesthetic where people are running through a forest at night, lanterns/flashlights blazing as search dogs bark. They just got the tip that the whumpee had been dumped in the woods, now itâs a race against time before the night gets colder, and more unforgiving.
Hypothermia and frostbite from being left in the snow, or dropped in a frozen lake. Frozen clothes and stiff limbs as a result. Not feeling injuries due to numbness, or severe burning as the nerves die
ALSO: Hypothermia in the final stages. Confusion and paradoxical undressing, due to feeling hot
Disorientation, vertigo, and confusion from blizzard whiteout conditions
Trapped in avalanche, losing air, crush injuries
Soaking wet from the rain. Macerated skin, clinging heavy clothes, trench foot from prolonged dampness
Exhaustion from having to trudge through thick mud or swampy environments, mosquito, insect, and tick bites, and the diseases that come with
Leeches and parasites from standing, dirty water
Hopelessness and fear from being left in the middle of nowhere and forced to find their way back. Becoming the hunted, not the hunter
Allergic reactions to plants brushed up against or previously mentioned insect bites (or stings)
Heat stroke from being made to exercise in the blistering heat
Burned skin from being left chained in the sun (or in snow if the sun is being reflected off of it (you can go blind from this.))
Nighttime extreme cold in the desert, daytime sweltering. Temperature whiplash, battling both extremes
Abraded face and skin from being blasted by wind+sand (also can happen from snow)
Delirium from dehydration. Cracked, bleeding lips and desperate thirst
Ok, so one of my favorite fantasy tropes is psychic powers. Clairvoyance, telepathy, telekinesis, all that good stuff. So, what about psychological torture, but with psychic powers?
Clairvoyant Whumpee that has painful visions (a classic)
Clairvoyant Caretaker knowing when Whumpee will be taken/hurt (maybe even die?) and not being able to stop it
Whumper can invade Whumpee's dreams and turn them all into nightmares
Whumpee can cause nightmares and accidently does so to Caretaker
Whumper can induce hallucinations and make Whumpee start doubting reality
Whumper and Whumpee (and/or Caretaker) are both/all telepaths and having a "psychic battle" (what that means is up to you to decide)
Scientist Whumper forcing Whumpee to use their powers for longer than they should
Living weapon with psychic powers (need I say more?)
Whumpee (or anyone really) that can't control their powers and it affects anyone that gets close to them (Ex. headaches, hallucinations, immense sense of dread, feeling of being watched)
And more "rare" powers, such as Chlorokinesis (the ability to control plants, like Poison Ivy from Batman) and Technopathy (the ability to control electronics) have LOADS of potential that I wish to see more of in whump. Seriously, like their are so many different ones, get creative! Anyway thanks for coming to my hyperfixation tell your friends about us
Something I thought about the other day: A world where people can be psychically linked, but a link between two people is rare. Maybe it has to be carefully engineered under specific conditions; maybe only a handful of people have psychic potential; maybe it only happens between twins, or between soulmates...
Either way, psychic pairs are very useful in espionage.
Send one out into the field, keep the other in base to relay information to and from the field agent. Some basic mechanics, with whumpy purposes:
They can't reliably hide anything from one another along the link.
They're empathetically linked, and feel one another's pain.
So of course, you can have things like the field agent getting captured and tortured by the enemy, and their counterpart worried desperately for them, while feeling their pain like it's their own, and yet - they're the only shot their team has at finding the field agent.
Or you can go a living resource/exploitation whump route. Forced into service, the person who's kept back at base used as a hostage to keep the field agent coming back. Dehumanised as your typical "agent", "asset", etc, for the field agent, and something like "comms" or "reciever" for the hostage; viewed as nothing but a link to and leash on the field agent. The drama of knowing everything that goes through one another's heads, and deciding what to report or withhold, especially if they're either very close or bitter enemies. Or... if one of them is loyal and the other hates their superiors? I like throwing some tension into their dynamic.
And as for that "leash"... ever wished you could hurt your living weapon/assassin/spy whumpee without actually injuring them and affecting their performance? Boy do we ever have the empathic link for you!
Also, a fun thing about pain-sharing, if you make them feel one another's pain along the link but at reduced intensity, that's very useful for things like "one of them still able to run and fight and rescue the other when they're injured" and ALSO... hm. Well. If you're using one of them as a whipping boy for the other :) well :)) um . :) you'd have to go pretty hard. :)
I think the idea of chemical restraint is underused in whump. Is your prisoner causing you too many problems? Fighting? Hurting themself? Why not drug them! Plenty of various substances to choose from all with their own fun side effects and consequences. Canât plot an escape plan if they canât think straight. The fear of the unknown horrors held in their captorâs needle. Fighting with their own mind and body.

I love magic that just uses energy from the caster, like, normal style. Not life energy or soul energy or something, just the kind that needs to be replenished with sleep and food. Used to use this a lot for exhaustion whump, and today I'm thinking about one of my OCs losing her superpowers from starvation (in her case, the power is creating and controlling electricity). I think she's canonically gotten to a point where her powers were unreliable to activate and weak when they did, but I also want to make it possible - though she's never been in this state canonically - for her body to just shut off electricity production entirely. Non-essential function, goodbye. And then you're stuck without powers in a situation where you need them more than ever!
captive whumpee who was finally good enough to get a day out. whumper stuffs them in the trunk of their car and drives for hours before finally stopping.
whumpee gets to spend nearly an entire day out in the sun, soaking up the warmth on their skin and the wind through their hair.
"ok, whumpee." whumper says finally, opening the trunk. "time to go home."
whumpee sniffles and nods. they walk back to the car as whumper loads the chain back into the trunk. "thank you for today."
Whumpee never knew what was wrong with them growing up. They always felt different to the other kids, and it wasn't because they were queer, or autistic, or anything else that might make someone feel like an outcast. They were just strange on a fundamental level and they never knew why.
Well, turns out they're a literal faerie.
They only found out when their real family took them back. Turns out changeling lore is a bit different than what was assumed. Thereâs a certain type of fae who replaces a human child with their own; but only if they had identical twins. The younger one is placed on earth, while the oldest stays. When the changeling starts to discover their powers, theyâre taken back.
Whumpeeâs whole life was a lie, and now they were forbidden from even mentioning their âhost familyâ. They didnât even recognize themself in the mirror, all they saw was their sibling. They now understand the phrase âevil twin,â because thatâs what they were, just loving to flex their superiority.
When identical twins are born to this type of fae, the oldest inherits most of the magic. Meanwhile the younger one's powers are very weak, so they get sent away to Earth. They donât want waste their time raising the weakling.
Though now back home with small budding powers, Whumpee was expected to live up to expectations. Not like the others in their family were, but still, they were expecting something.
Despite feeling like an outcast on Earth, now back in their âtrueâ home, they felt more out of place than ever.
Their twin was the prodigy; Whumpee was just the changeling.
