Some sample questions from this category:

* Achilles was a legendary warrior who was invincible, except for his heel, but then I guess you could say that this became his fatal weakness. What caused the fatal weakness?
* Not all forms of Superman's vulnerability work the same way. Which color of the thing that is his weakness can make Superman turn wholly evil, see himself as twins, and produce other random effects?
* Hercules was a famed mythical hero who faced all kinds of difficulties. Which of his relatives was the cause of his having to perform twelve hard labors?
* When it finally came time for Hercules to die, who was it who gave him the tunic that led to the hero's death?
* Leprechauns are fairies that form part of Irish folklore. An alternative name for these fairies is 'leithbragan'. While 'leith' means half, what type of apparel commonly associated with these fairy folk is the second part of this term derived from?
