BLACK PAWN H: Sow discord among your foes by spreading rumors.

It takes to social media, immediately making a bunch of disparaging posts about everyone else involved in the race. This'll do it some good in the court of public opinion.

ROARING KNIGHT: Run for black presidency.

None of the KNIGHTs are quite sure which one of them is meant to be the ROARING one?

Maybe this NOIR KNIGHT? Maybe it's a play on ROARING TWENTIES? Okay, yeah, that makes sense. From now on the BLACK KNIGHT in the CLASSY HAT is to be addressed as the ROARING KNIGHT.

It doesn't run, though. It's more the type to jadedly disregard AUTHORITY rather than make it itself.

> BLACK QUEEN A: Turn out to be transmasc, Crow Strider style.

CHESS PIECEs don't really have much of an attachment to their GENDERs- they rarely have assigned ones at all, really, and usually they default to it/its regardless. The BLACK QUEEN A, however, has a personal attachment to femininity- how can it harness the power of YURI with its wife otherwise?

Besides, it wouldn't want to use the sacred magic of TRANSITION just for a grab at power. That strikes it as sort of insensitive.

BLACK PAWN ? and WHITE PAWN ?: Develop YAOI subplot.

The WHITE PAWN B and the BLACK PAWN G catch each other's eyes across the board. Bishie sparkles begin flying almost immediately.

These two will continue to act exactly as normal, except whenever they make contact they'll start blushing and stammering. Because obviously, as pawns, both of them are ukes.
