Alright, the last slot is free for whoever.

[Loud Whispers]

Name: Korai Muaha
Gender: Male
Item: Coymbat Knoife
Bio: Was eating some bread when I heard the sound of some crickets nearby.

Then 'woke up here.

[Orb]

Special Items are only for last game's winner, aka Zako.  Sorry if I wasn't clear enough.

Another mechanic is a starting item. Every player gets 1 item; there will be a list of items below.

Since Zako won the last one, his character will be making a return. Zako's character gets 2 regular items or 1 special item. If he wins again, and I decide to make another iteration, this bonus will increase, until he is 'dethroned' so to speak.

[Loud Whispers]

Replace with nails.

This is a intermediate turn. You can examine the area, collect items, scavenge, consume an item, and so on. You can't enter a new area, however, travel is for the 'bigger' turn

"Welcome back! Here are the poor saps competing today!

Competitor 1 is Tirne Summer. He was researching the wheel when we knocked him out. He starts with a primitive human communication device.

Competitor 2 is Rick Trensferan. We tricked him with a decoy. He's starting with a box of sticks.

Competitor 3 is the returning champ, Axel Greyson! Due to his accomplishments, he'll be starting with an extra ration. He's surely the favored one in this match!

Competitor 4 is John Minoto. We caught him storing food in primitive storage devices. He hope to use a sticky adhesive to give him the edge!

Competitor 5 is Jake Dover. We knocked him out while he was making an undecipherable mess on paper. He'll be bringing a box of pointy things.

Competitor 6 is Korai Muaha. We caught him dining on some trash. He will also be bringing a box of pointy things.

Let's wake them up and get things started, shall we?

With a snap of his finger, the competitors start waking up, slowly coming to awareness

>Axel Greyson

You awake in confusion, having no idea what's going on. Then a peculiar feeling runs through your brain, like cool water flowing through your brain tissue. You blank out for a split second. When you come back to, all your memories of the previous game show flood in. Your personality abruptly changes due to this memory influx, and you regard the last month as "Stupid". You were stupid. You should have called for help, realized something was wrong...something.

>Everyone

You wake up in a dark room. Around you sit your fellow competitors, awake and cautiously listening. Silence, broken only by a 'drip' to your right every 5 seconds. In front of you sits a bag, illuminated by a single privacy window, confirming you're in a basement. The privacy window is heavily reinforced with iron bars, and appears to be thicker than a normal window. Past the bag lies a stairway going up. Nothing else is illuminated. The calm is broken by an annoying high pitched thought, no wait, that couldn't be your thought, you didn't think it....

"Hello Competitors, and welcome to The Hunger Games, the most popular show in the galaxy. I am your host, Hal. Today you will have the prestigious honor to compete in our lovely game. We have accelerated your metabolism, and your only goal in the game is to be the last one alive! In the sack in front of you sits three rations, distribute them as you please. Remember, if you refuse to compete, we'll kill all your loved ones, so have fun!

You can almost feel him smiling behind his voice.

Basement?
A dark room. A slow drip of water occurs somewhere. A bag, illuminated by a single privacy window, contains three rations.The privacy window is heavily reinforced with iron bars, and appears to be thicker than a normal window. Past the bag lies a stairway going up. Nothing else is illuminated.

I'll get this done later. My time was abruptly cut short. Nothing to really see anyway.

[Tiruin]

"All our loved ones?!"

Tirne looked around at the rest before noticing that he had spoken out loud, and to an omniscient voice.

"Well, the only one left alive is my sister...hmm. I guess this is a survival, yes? I'm not inclined to kill anyone, especially complete strangers.

"Tirne Summer, pleased to meet you all...shall we work together?"

[Spinal_Taper]

Rick stood up, shaking the dizziness out of his head.
"Name's Rick. I guess you guys haven't had anything like this happen before either."
That was a slight lie. This wasn't the first time chasing after a girl landed him unconscious in someones basement. The all-knowing voice was new through, as were the people around him.

[Zako]

As the reality dawned on Axel, he felt a flood of emotions overwhelm him for a few seconds.

"Oh god... OH GOD, NOT THIS SHIT AGAIN!"

He barely keeps from crying as his mind works over the last time this happened. He had killed someone... Someone who needed his help while completely defenseless... He felt sick and had to breathe deeply a few times to regain control. They were using a new threat this time, and one that he couldn't do much about either...

He stood up and took another deep breath before wordlessly begining again.

Search the room carefully, being careful not to hurt myself in the dark.

[Tiruin]

"Not this shit again?

"Again? So...we're not in a mental asylum, huh?"

Tirne adjusted the frequency on his radios and tried testing them.

"These still work.

"And...please don't kill me. I just want to see my sister soon. Tell me if you'd find anything, everyone, I won't hurt you."

Go up the stairs, keeping watch for anything suspicious like strange smells or sounds.

Be cautious.

[Orb]

I can feel the drama, it's there, developing, waiting to leap out and make me roll my eyes. You two. 

Anyway, the first 1/2 turn there really isn't much to do. Especially since no one brought a light. Once you guys start splitting up it should pick up. Feel free to not offer an action on an intermediate turn, just notify me. ("Tirne examines his shoes").

Oh! I almost forgot the voting system. At the end of every 15 turns (15, 30, 45, ect), I will deliver a ration to a competitor. The voting will consist of voting for your favorite competitor. The idea behind it is that the viewers (you guys) are watching and voting for you favorite, akin to dancing with the stars. I'll allow vote switching, so feel free to do so. Players are allowed to vote mostly because I wouldn't be able to stop that anyway.

"Edit" It's up! I'll be putting a vote for Axel so I can view the poll easier. Just note I'll be subtracting a vote from him.

[Scelly9]

"Hi, I'm Jake, See ya."
Grab a ration, climb the stairs.

[Tiruin]

((Not a hippy.))

[Orb]

Buuuut, Hal thinks you are. You guys did want more Hal harassment. Here you go. 

"Edit" Unnnlesss you don't. Honestly this is an issue I have no opinion on and would like more feedback on. Do I go too far? Is it not enough? Do you even want it? Should Hal offer creepy encouragement? Do tell.

[Spinal_Taper]

Take ration, go up stairs. Make sure Jake dosen't get out.
"Hey, how about we stick together until we know what's going on?."

[Loud Whispers]

Nab a ration.
Check my pockets.
"No... JENNY NO!! YOU SICK BASTARDS WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH MY TURTLE??!"
;_;
Walk upstairs
