You're awake. You're lying on a cold floor, and your head is pounding. It feels like you've been hit with a sledgehammer. You can barely move, but you push yourself up anyway, and look around. You're in an unfamiliar warehouse, and on your left wrist is a bracelet. It feels heavy, and no matter how hard you tug at it, it refuses to come off. You can't remember how you arrived here, nor do you recognize anyone else. Try not to panic too much.
( For the purposes of the Test Drive, characters will be arriving in the warehouse instead of the Elevator/AB Room)
An Ambidex Game has just concluded. You have entered in your vote and there's no turning back. Did you trust your opponent and vote ally? Or did you double-cross them and vote betray? What did your opponent do? Did they vote betray while you voted ally, or did they vote ally while you voted betray? Why did you choose one or the other? Just what did you do?
Rules are meant to be broken. You've just reached a certain amount of BP, and you can finally have access to food (low or high quality) or to the dorms. It's great, things are getting a bit more bearable now, but seeing the others without the same "luxuries" as you, you feel like you should do something. It's against the rules to bring food or blankets out of their respective rooms, but Zero can't have eyes everywhere... can he?
Exploration and Escape. All the windows are bolted shut, and all the doors are locked. The exit is through the number 9 door, but no one can reach it until they have 63 BP. It'll take too long to wait for help to arrive, and to accumulate that many points. There must be some way out. Maybe if you search enough, you can find a tool to help you break down a door.
Wild Card. Want to try something else? Go for it! Have your own AB Game round, have characters argue against each other, try to keep the mood cheery, whatever! Make full use of the environment and mechanics, just remember to keep it within the game's structure.

Maybe if you trust your life with a stranger. How do you know that they're not going to pick betray on you after talking you up to pick ally?
no subject
It's only when people start betraying that people are going to get left behind or even killed.

[ Sorry, Jake is pretty cynical and selfish... He's been betrayed pretty badly in the past and while he can't remember it, it has left an impact on him and how he acts. ]

[ And looking at his bracelet, it looks like the points have already been distributed. His number is looking mighty good at 6 BP. He's almost there to getting some food to eat. ]

It'll come back to haunt you, I bet. But hey, do what you want.
no subject
[ If he was paid to stay here, sure, he will. He'll do a lot of things for money... ]
no subject
[ Not that he thinks you'll be getting out anytime soon, since who in their right minds would ally with you after that? ]
no subject
[ And not answering that. Just turning away to check out the score board. He... forgot Junpei's name, so he has no idea which one is his. ]
What did your partner pick?
no subject
Ally. They made the right choice.
