It didn't take Felix long to assess the situation; he was used to such strange happenstances. A man-made tunnel system... How intriguing. These kinds of things are generally more difficult for it's own good, unless...
This line of thought was interrupted; not by any outside force mind you, but rather another line of thought. "Eight contestants, destined to fight to the death. How enthralling.
"Well, it would be more enthralling if I weren't in it."
Felix began exploring the caves; he had split himself into multiple light-gray clones to traverse as much ground as possible. Minutes later, they all met where they began, all with the same answer.
"It's a maze." Thank you captain obvious. Anything else you would like to point out? "Yes, actually. We found some of the other contestants." He already knew all of this, seeing as he was the clone, and vice-versa; he had merely earned the habit of talking to himself.
It would be best to form an alliance with some of the contestants. "But some of them seemed rather violent." Well then I will be more violent. "But that might anger the more sensible people."
"Oh shut up all of me. Can't I see that I'm trying to think?" The clones, if you want to call them that, formed back into one dark gray silhouette, which morphed back into the form known as Felix.
"Now, let's just see what we have here. Whoever has arranged this altercation wants to see a fight, and probably won't stop until they have it. But the purely statistical chance for me to leave alive in this fashion is 1/8. Factoring in the powers of the contestants would probably lower these chances further. Now, what do I know of the contestants...
"One is a witch, another is an electro-mage, with yet another being... A creeper? Whatever that was. Then there was that one... They said his name was Will. The rest of them aren't important. Some golems and shit."
Peeling himself from his open thought, Felix continued exploring the caverns.
