The Testing Facility

You awake in a sleeping pod, waking up from stasis. The top of the pod opens, and you climb out into a small chamber.

You look around your small chamber. The walls are made of glass, and there is a small side table. On the table is a radio, softly playing music.

Behind the glass is a larger room. There is a security camera in the corner, and to the left, a doorway to another room.

A female, robotic announcer interrupts your thinking.

"Good morning. The Enrichment Center welcomes you to the testing facility. The proper documents have been filed, and you have been determined to be fit for the testing course. Subject, are you ready to begin the test?"
Mark your actions with ==>.

Rules:
- Follow the TBG guidelines.
- You may do whatever you with within the testing chamber.
- Certain actions may be disallowed to prevent the accidental obstruction of science.
- All rolls will be determined by one or more d20s. 1 is the worst roll, 10 is pretty average, and 20 is an overshoot, which means it was so successful, something else may have also gone wrong because of it. This scales for multiple dice - 2d20 means 39 and 40 are overshoots, 3d20 makes overshoots between 57 and 60, etc.
- Certain items may give you boosts to some actions.
- Yep, this game is based off of Portal. Expect references galore. :p

"Very good. The Enrichment Center notices your recent bout with cancer, and as such, will ensure that you are kept away from any parts of the test that may cause unwanted side effects, or relapses."
A small cupcake with a single lit candle is placed on the nightstand with by a robotic hand, and a fork next to it.
"The Enrichment Center also believes congratulations are in order after your recent feat. Congratulations. Not even cancer, one of the worst diseases known to mankind, could stop such an excellent test subject such as yourself."

"The Enrichment Center is unable to determine why you would need this, but, as is noted in your file, you have many unorthodox solutions which result in amazing results. As such, we will provide you with the lead required."

A large block of lead is deposited in front of William.

==> Ask for an aircon. Or a robot. Either works.

NuclearArmadillo

==> Ask for a non-specific handheld faux firearm that creates tunnels in reality that allow for seamless transportation of objects between 2 points through immobile and flat walls that are sufficiently large enough to contain said portals, as well as being able to pick up and drop smaller objects.
