The Risky Kind

Note: sorry for the long hiatus to this update. Please leave a comment on any ideas for challenges and risks/rewards. also feel free to make a branching path

Vanessa blinked away the bright studio lights and as her vision adjusted, she saw the studio audience in front of her with a few people at podiums in front of the audience. The man in the tacky bow-tie beckoned her over to stand on a stage overlooking the audience.

"Hello Vanessa, my name is Wayne Marlins, the host of this new show..." he paused and held his microphone towards the audience as they chanted LOSE IT ALL back to finish the sentence. "I will explain the rules to you my dear. You have the chance to win amazing fabulous prizes here today if you can succeed at the challenges that will be set. However, if you fail a challenge you will have a punishment that will be a prize for a lucky contestant from the audience. Our current possible winners are at their podiums now."

There were 3 men and 1 woman at the 4 podiums facing her all had large oversized name tags.

On the far left was Mike, he was over 6 feet tall, black and very fit looking. Vanessa did a quick assessment and noticed that his clothing was no sort of brand name but otherwise he was mildly attractive.

Next podium was the woman, Sally. She was a bit short with long straight black hair and pale skin. She was, to Vanessa, the most average looking woman in the world, but glancing at her eyes sent a shiver down Vanessa's spine. She saw a strange lustful hunger.

The third podium, held a short asian man, Hiroshi. He was older with whispy hair but nicer clothes (if not a bit outdated). She couldn't glean much from his expression.

The far right podium was a white man, James, he was probably as big as the first man but only in size, not in fitness. He was rather unnatractive with an unkempt beard and a stain on his shirt that had a picture of some animated girl on it.

Wayne introduced each contestant and they wave as he said their names. He turned towards Vanessa, "Ok so you may drop out of the competition at any time, but doing so will lead to the maximum sentence being given to you for your crimes." He looked at a peice of paper before making an exagerate WOW face. "Looks like when all the crimes are added up and sentences are consecutive, that will lead to a 285 year sentence with no parole. Otherwise, finishing our game here will make you a free woman at the end of the week"

Vanessa blinked at the sentence length, there was no way it would hav ebeen that long if she went to actual trial, this was insane. She would just have to put up with the challeneges and try to win.

"Ok Vanessa, let's see what you are risking and what your prize is for this first round..." he says as he motions her to step up to two large wheels. There is a large button labeled SPIN, and she presses it
