- A unit of time equal to 60 seconds. Minutes are smaller units within an hour and help us measure shorter durations. We use minutes to indicate time intervals, such as "five minutes," and to count down to events or activities. For example, we might say, "We'll leave in 10 minutes," or "You have 5 minutes to finish your assignment." Minutes are essential for managing time and ensuring we stay on schedule.
- Refers to the time that is yet to come. The future represents the moments, days, weeks, and years ahead. We think about the future when we plan our goals, dreams, and aspirations. The future is full of possibilities and opportunities, and it's a time for new experiences and discoveries. While we can't predict the future with certainty, we can make choices and take actions to shape our own futures.
- The middle part of the day, between noon and evening. Afternoons follow the morning and precede the evening. We continue our activities, such as attending school, working, or participating in extracurriculars, during the afternoon. Afternoons are a time of productivity and progress, and we often feel energized during this part of the day.
- A system for organizing and measuring time. Calendars help us keep track of days, weeks, months, and years. They have dates and provide a way to plan and schedule events, holidays, and special occasions. Calendars usually show the days of the week and the months of the year, and they help us stay organized and understand the passage of time.
- A unit of time consisting of 24 hours. Days mark the rotation of the Earth, from sunrise to sunset and back to sunrise. We use days to divide time into larger portions and plan our daily routines. Days are made up of daytime and nighttime, and we experience different activities and events within a day. For example, we go to school during the day and sleep at night. Days are an essential part of our daily lives and provide a natural rhythm to our activities.
- A device used to measure and display time. Clocks can be analog, with hands that point to the hours and minutes on a dial, or digital, with numbers that show the time. Clocks help us keep track of hours, minutes, and seconds throughout the day and are found in homes, schools, and other places. They can be small, like wristwatches, or large, like wall clocks.
- A unit of time equal to 60 minutes. Hours divide the day into smaller portions and help us schedule activities and keep track of time. We use hours to measure how long tasks take or how long we have to wait for something. For example, school classes are usually an hour long, and we often set alarms to wake up at a specific hour in the morning.
- The smallest unit of time, equal to 1/60th of a minute. Seconds are used to measure very short durations and help us track the passing of time in even smaller increments. We often use seconds to time short activities or events, such as saying, "I'll be there in a few seconds" or "The race lasted 30 seconds." Seconds are also used in scientific measurements and to synchronize clocks and devices.
Down
- The period of darkness between sunset and sunrise. Nights are characterized by the absence of sunlight and the presence of stars and the moon. We use nights for rest, sleep, and relaxation. Nighttime activities include going to bed, reading bedtime stories, and observing the stars. Nights provide a sense of calm and tranquility, allowing us to recharge and prepare for the next day.
- A device or feature that counts down a set amount of time and signals when the time is up. Timers are useful for setting reminders, managing tasks, and controlling the duration of activities. For example, we might use a timer to limit screen time or allocate a specific time for studying. Timers help us stay focused, complete tasks efficiently, and manage our time effectively.
- A unit of time equal to 12 months or approximately 365 days. Years represent a complete orbit of the Earth around the Sun. We use years to measure longer periods and mark important milestones. For example, birthdays and anniversaries occur once a year. Years also help us understand the passing of time on a larger scale and compare different periods in history. Years play a significant role in our lives and help us reflect on the past and plan for the future.
- A device used to measure and display the elapsed time accurately. Stopwatches are often used in sports to time races or measure how quickly someone completes a task. They have start, stop, and reset buttons to control the timing. Stopwatches help us measure time with precision and provide accurate results when timing events. They are commonly used by athletes, coaches, and referees.
- Refers to the time that has already happened. The past includes everything that occurred before the present moment. We learn about the past through history books, stories, and the experiences of others. The past helps us understand how things have changed and shaped the world we live in today. It's like a record of events that have already taken place.
- A unit of time consisting of seven days. Weeks help us organize our schedules and plan activities over a longer period. We use weeks to set goals, track progress, and plan events. Weeks also help us structure school schedules, with specific days for different subjects or activities. For example, we might say, "I'll see you next week" or "We have a test next week." Weeks provide a broader framework for managing time and ensure we have time for different tasks and responsibilities.
- A unit of time that represents a division of the year. Months help us organize time on a larger scale, with each month having a different name and number of days. We use months to mark the changing seasons and important dates. For example, we have special holidays in different months, such as New Year's Day in January and Halloween in October. Months provide a way to structure time and help us plan activities and events throughout the year.
- The early part of the day, from sunrise until noon. Mornings are characterized by the transition from nighttime to daytime. We often start our days in the morning, getting ready for school or other activities. Morning is a time for waking up, having breakfast, and beginning the day's tasks. It's a fresh start and a time of new beginnings.
16 Clues: The middle part of the day, between noon and evening. Afternoons follow the morning and precede the evening. We continue our activities, such as attending school, working, or participating in extracurriculars, during the afternoon.

- In the reckonings of most worlds, _____s are the youngest of the common races, late to arrive on the world scene and short-lived in comparison to dwarves, elves, and dragons. Perhaps it is because of their shorter lives that they strive to achieve as much as they can in the years they are given.

Whatever drives them, _____s are the innovators, the achievers, and the pioneers of the worlds.

- _______s are seekers of the knowledge that lies hidden in the fabric of the multiverse. Through pacts made with mysterious beings of supernatural power, _______s unlock magical effects both subtle and spectacular.

- Whether scholar, skald, or scoundrel, a ____ weaves magic through words and music to inspire allies, demoralize foes, manipulate minds, create illusions, and even heal wounds.
- Whether calling on the elemental forces of nature or emulating the creatures of the animal world, _____s are an embodiment of nature’s resilience, cunning, and fury. They claim no mastery over nature. Instead, they see themselves as extensions of nature’s indomitable will.
- The comforts of home are the goals of most ________s’ lives: a place to settle in peace and quiet, far from marauding monsters and clashing armies; a blazing fire and a generous meal; fine drink and fine conversation. Though some ________s live out their days in remote agricultural communities, others form nomadic bands that travel constantly, lured by the open road and the wide horizon to discover the wonders of new lands and peoples. But even these wanderers love peace, food, hearth, and home, though home might be a wagon jostling along a dirt road or a raft floating downriver.
- Whatever their origin and their mission, _______s are united by their oaths to stand against the forces of evil. Whether sworn before a god’s altar and the witness of a priest, in a sacred glade before nature spirits and fey beings, or in a moment of desperation and grief with the dead as the only witness, a _______’s oath is a powerful bond. It is a source of power that turns a devout warrior into a blessed champion.

- ________s carry a magical birthright conferred upon them by an exotic bloodline, some otherworldly influence, or exposure to unknown cosmic forces.

Some ____-____s live among humans, set apart by their emotional and physical differences, watching friends and loved ones age while time barely touches them.

Many ____-____s, unable to fit into either society, choose lives of solitary wandering or join with other misfits and outcasts in the adventuring life.
- ______s are supreme magic-users, defined and united as a class by the spells they cast.

Their mightiest spells change one substance into another, call meteors down from the sky, or open portals to other worlds.
- Born of !@#$%^&, as their name proclaims, the __________ walk proudly through a world that greets them with fearful incomprehension. Shaped by !@#$%^&* gods or the !@#$%^s themselves, __________ originally hatched from !@#$%^ eggs as a unique race, combining the best attributes of !@#$%^s and humanoids. Some __________ are faithful servants to true !@#$%^s, others form the ranks of soldiers in great wars, and still others find themselves adrift, with no clear calling in life.
- Far from the bustle of cities and towns, past the hedges that shelter the most distant farms from the terrors of the wild, amid the dense-packed trees of trackless forests and across wide and empty plains, ______s keep their unending watch.
- To be greeted with stares and whispers, to suffer violence and insult on the street, to see mistrust and fear in every eye: this is the lot of the ________. And to twist the knife, ________s know that this is because a pact struck generations ago infused the essence of Asmodeus—overlord of the Nine Hells—into their bloodline. Their appearance and their nature are not their fault but the result of an ancient sin, for which they and their children and their children’s children will always be held accountable.
- Questing knights, conquering overlords, royal champions, elite foot soldiers, hardened mercenaries, and bandit kings—as _______s, they all share an unparalleled mastery with weapons and armor, and a thorough knowledge of the skills of combat. And they are well acquainted with death, both meting it out and staring it defiantly in the face.
