RP Warm-Ups

Roleplay warm-up questions, or "RP warm-ups", are questions or prompts given prior to gameplay which help the cast get into character. Each question is usually given by Hannah, and each cast member takes a turn answering the question as their respective character or characters. The questions also allow whoever is running the audio, usually Dan, to test the microphone levels.
Not all RP warmups have been done on-camera.
