"I just said you were stealthy and got stuff done," Alloy sighs, exasperated. "Don't make me take back the compliment.""
"Oh, I thought you meant like creeping fear, which slowly sets in and destroys communities from within. Ah well, you just gave me a really good idea for a trial to give you guys."
"Then don't be. Make the trial a game of rock, paper, scissors, or something simple."
"Hell no, I take my job far too seriously for absolutely no reason or chance of meaningful improvement to my life. Plus, chatting with your sibling there gave me an idea."

Aris shrugs. "Fair enough. What'cha got, so we can go on to the next part sooner than later?"

She clicks her fingers and you're all suddenly inside one of the skyscrapers, 30 floors up. A coffee machine stands in the corner and an array of desks, typewriters and filing cabinets are in neat rows all around. Sitting at one of the desks, she says, "Your trial will be playing office politics. As a group, you need to decide which one of you will be left behind here. Who is the least valuable member of the team?
The decision must be unanimous, apart from the person chosen (they don't need to consent). When you've made up your mind, let me know!"

"I vote Henry," aovin says, wobbling alightly as he chugs another bottle of water "though technically none of us are less valuable than the others"

The tiefling rolls her eyes. "Yeah, gotta be one of you guys. Aovin, Alloy, Caiman, Zaza, Aris or Hector. Hector, why are you the only one without an 'a' sound in your name?"

Yeah for sure! If anybody wants to investigate anything in the room ask what and I'll choose perception or investigation. If Alloy could roll investigation on the door that'd be great 😁
I'll post a description of everything in the room so y'all can better work out what there is to investigate

So the room has tall white walls lined with rusty filing cabinets along the edges. In the centre of the room, rows of desks, each set out with typewriter workstations for the workers to grind out whatever infernal bureaucracy they're required to perform that day. A large window on the outer wall looks out on the city maybe some thirty floors below. On the opposite wall is an iron door, much like a regular office door but made of corrugated, reinforced iron. There's no obvious lock on the door. A coffee machine stands by the door

The tiefling shrugs and indicates a heavy-looking iron door, "That door won't open until you've decided. Good luck choosing!"
Then she fades into mist, leaving you alone in the room.
Chilling kinda vibe.
*Alloy intends on staying, but can they peek a look at the door? Like, is it a normal locked door or a submarine-style door?
