So the bumbling protagonist, the wandering merchant, or the neighbor from down the street walks into a herbal shop, gets met by some strange person, or simply has a dream with a lot of flashy lighting effects. Next thing they know, they've been declared destroyers of worlds, rulers of fates, or simply the best goddamned kitten-saver in the entirety of the universe. There is a considerable overlap with The Chosen One, but chosen ones are not always told what they were chosen for, and prophecies don't always refer to a particular person. In style, prophecies tend to take one of two forms. Some are simply laconic statements of fact, describing some event that will happen in the future. Others are in rhyme and verse, and tend to be much more abstruse and difficult to parse. Subtrope of Call to Adventure. Supertrope to Either/Or Prophecy, Self-Defeating Prophecy, Self-Fulfilling Prophecy; please add the appropriate examples directly to those pages. For the movie, see Film.The Prophecy. For the Fan Work with a similar name, see PAW Patrol: The Prophecy. |

Even one of the Expanded Universe books has its own prophecy: Like fire, you will blaze through the forest. But beware! Even the most powerful flames can be destroyed by water. | |

| The Prophecy / int_9d6427ec | comment |
Season 3 has the birth of Connor, the child sired by the vampire with a soul, who would grow to manhood and kill Sahjhan (a demon villain). There's also the false prophecy "The father will kill the son", a result of Sahjhan using Time Travel to edit all written copies of the prophecy. Angel does sort of kill Connor, but not the way Wesley or anyone else expected. Angel cuts his son's throat to stop him after he goes off the deep end, and then Wolfram and Hart gives him a new life. | |

Blind Seer | |
| The Prophecy / int_a122bf2f | comment |
Mithras' prophecy from Sacrifice, which warns that one of the five gods has betrayed the others and is planning to undo the balance of the world, which will spark a new war (the gods hearing the prophecy immediately causes one, so good call there). A 'vagrant' is said to be the only one to prevent this by 'sealing the gaping maw of doom'; protagonist Eldred quickly sees an opportunity to sell himself to the gods by claiming to be that vagrant. The prophecy turns out to be quite a twisty one: Mithras turns out to be Omnicidal Maniac Marduk in disguise; Stratos betrayed the other four gods by summoning him and believes the prophecy is just nonsense made up to increase tensions; and Marduk intended for himself to be the vagrant who would 'seal' the world's doom (i.e. ensure it). Eldred ends up defeating Marduk in the end, which ends up fulfilling the prophecy in a manner not intended. | |

Prophecy Twist | |
| The Prophecy / int_bb5126ec | comment |
Angel has the Shanshu prophecy, that the vampire with a soul will become human after his part in the apocalypse-he will either save the world or destroy it. And then a twist comes up, as (completely unanticipated by everyone) there's now two vampires with souls and it's called into question whether Angel is actually The Chosen One after all. | |
