==================
Welcome, London expats, to THE GREATEST OF FAST&MEDITATING SHOW - the IRRIGO DEATHBOX CHALLENGE!
I am your host, MIRANDA PLENTY. Even up here at the Surface, the PLENTY family continues to serve you with the FINEST ENTERTAINMENT, and you SHALL NEVER BE RID OF US. Have you given up Seeking today, citizen?
A question by the audience this early! I am truly touched by your enthusiasm, citizens. Indeed, are the contestants handsome and pleasing? Are they only kidnapped from the finest source? The answer to these questions...
Is a RESOUNDING YES! Claw-picked by THE VAKE in the DEAD OF THE NIGHT, our contestants are all EXTRAORDINARY INDIVIDUALS OF EXCEPTIONAL TALENTS, AFFILIATIONS AND IMMENSE DIVERSITY, including a DEVOTED CULTIST OF NEW SEQUENCE!
What else is there to say? All eyes on the contestants... starting now!
But wait, they look different in London you say? Here's an EDUCATIONAL FACT: Surface Air has the marvellous ability to strip off fungal makeup. That's why they all look different, folks. Anyway: here, we play hard, we play FAIR.
Do take a look at how the contestants are holding up in the holding area before placing your bet!
Looks like Call Now is all pumped up! As an ex-athlete, that is to be expected. But will that energy save her in the tight confinement of IRRIGOBOX?
Delmar Tramontane is nothing if cultured. Or is he merely thinking of devouring the book? Will the book provide the much-needed nutrition in the coming days of IRRIGOBOX?
It is a known fact that Vavakx Nonexus loves bird. Even here, loyal birds have found a way in! But could they accompany Vavakx all the way into the IRRIGOBOX? Will the extra mouths doom the Game-Carver's fate?
The Boastful Captain, Morkan Kassington, is going to rely on the ancient docker solution to all problems: muscles. Will these tight biceps solve any woes he should suffer in the IRRIGOBOX?
What a coincidence! Robin Alexander's just as much a bookworm as Delmar is and reading the same book. This is most certainly not because we have a very tight budget. Will this hauntingly similar Pet-of-Bats survive the IRRIGOBOX?
Even now, Daniel Ember is still engrossed in the black-and-white battlefields that transcend life-and-death. But the chessboard will not transcend nor breach the impenetrable IRRIGOBOX! Will Daniel dreams the game of chess within the IRRIGOBOX? Or will the box claim both dreams and life?
No one knows what Cortez looks like beneath the mask. Not even us, when we "invited" them by twisting all laws of is-and-is-not. Of course, that's because we haven't thought of pulling off the mask while they lie unconscious. Can Cortez the Killer, now practicing MURDER on a fearsome bear, win the competition of IRRIGOBOX by MURDERING their fellow contestants? That remains to see. Or how they are going to eat with their mask on.
And last but not least - Hark deGaul, the pallid-skinned, pale-haired lover of cat! It seems that Hark has hidden a pumpkin-cat inside their black cloak, as befitting their rabid cat-loving. Can Hark continue to pull out such amazing tricks to survive the horror of IRRIGOBOX?
This is the IRRIGO DEATHBOX. Carefully crafted with PENULTIMATE CRAFTSMANSHIP and the FINEST IREMI ROSE-WATER, this will be our venue of competition, where the PALE WHITE THING IN THE DARKNESS shall absorb the souls of the unworthy. Who shall escape its MERCILESS JUDGEMENT? Who indeed?
Place your bets.... starting now!
(Please send via PM. No money involved.)

[spoiler] I accidentally spoke out of character, apologies:
The host Miranda and Vavakx look so awesome!
I think I'm absolutely in love  The pictures in general look pretty cool; I think I see a familiar icon over some of them, so have to ask whether these are Sims? The picture quality is pretty awesome, so just curious  [/spoiler]

It would be good to vote for more than one person, but - alas - such a thing is not possible.
I know my vote won't be going on myself, though, as it's probably better to vote on someone that stands a chance

I wish I could vote for two people. Of course the power of my cat pumpkin will sustain me, but I can't deny that Morkan's fantastic body gives him a natural advantage.

Yes, they are assuredly, PROGRAMMING MARVELS known as Sims, that have, under MYSTERIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES, captured our UNDYING SOULS withing their BINARY REMAINS.

Ah, I thank you most humbly for such an explanation!
Yes, they are marvels indeed, capturing the true essence of many a Neathly form. I am curious as to whom will win; it's merely a shame we can't bet on our lovely host, as I adore Miranda Plenty already, even if this is the first I've seen of her.

Well, someone always has to be an exception to the rules. I'll leave you to ponder that.

An EXCEPTIONAL AMENDMENT!
It has come to our notice that one of our employees, in their negligence, has DISTORTED the ACCOMPLISHMENTS and DESIRES of a PARTICULAR contestants! It shall be corrected in due course, and REEDUCATION IMMINENT-
Hmmm.... what's that smell? Oh my, it seems that Salaxlans, nickname Salad, is SWIFTLY ANNIHILATED by their fellow servants for their UNFORGIVABLE MISDEEDS! Celebrate our first casualty, Surfacers!

I apologize for any and all anachronisms. I am too lazy to check some facts if I am sure they are from the 1890s or sometimes think they are.
