Clothing for nonhumanoid persons. Improvised or otherwise.
Language barrier, no translator. (Translation chain, pictures, etc).
Crazy-prepared meets Properly Paranoid, for a mundane purpose. ("Why are you planning our shopping trip like it's the Norman Invasion?" -> "Oh, that's why.")
First Contact. (Incidentally, how are the Antarctica aliens getting along?)
The immortals using antiquity-skills to solve a modern problem.
Unconventional problem-solving, for an Interspecies Adoption or Mage Raised By Muggles.
Fantastic Religious Weirdness.
Mundane Utility.
Something that subverts the expectation of a genre. A scifi with a Scavenger World ship fleet, an action movie emphasizing teamwork and training, a medical show that emphasizes _basic_ caretaking, etc.
Maybe Shaeth's followers recyle a lot? It used to be fairly common in 1800s England, for poor people to scavenge and trade what we would today think of as trash in order to make a living.
Improvised tools/armour/weapons/anything else.
The person who lived thru something terrible can help others when it happens again. (Inspired by something I read recently.)
Using your enemies' biases against them.
Does Terramagne have a talk-and-build-a-fire rule? If not, will they make one?
Closest Thing We've Got to a solution / professional person / protocol.
