Before I start writing, I thought it'd be a good idea to introduce the official cast. I'll start with the newbies, then with the returnees. I used (and tweaked some to match the story) your auditions for the introduction. Also, if you didn't make an audition, I made one for your character.
NEW CAST
Deborah - The Workaholic Barista (NerdyNightStocker)
Audition tape: The setting is inside of a coffeehouse with tables, a shelf of books, a fireplace with a sofa in front and a register/coffee-making bar. You see a small blur of tan hair in different places sweeping one part, refilling milk carafes, pulling brownies out if the oven, etc.
A group of teenagers and an older woman in brown aprons and caps come into view. The tallest guy, a buzzcut blonde named Jason, points in the blurred direction. "You see that? That's our coworker Deb. This is how she works her shift EVERY DAY. EVERY DAY."
A short Asian girl named Cynthia joins in. "She's OUR age and it's a crime that she's already doing the work of ten baristas here. She should be going on dates and having fun."
Another girl with blonde and brown crimped hair named Miranda scoffs. "She really needs to chill out and be a normal teenager for a change. It's making us all look bad!"
The older woman named Brenda finally comes forward. "Not to mention that she has almost 3 months worth of vacation time already. As her manager, I'm giving her permission to take time off and-"
"And get her out of our hair!" Miranda snaps.
Jason and Cynthia grin and nod in agreement as Deb stops her blurred motions and approaches the group. "Alright, Brenda! I remade the coffees, changed out the creams, baked the brownies, wiped down the counters and the condiment bar, shook the rugs, dusted the furniture and recounted the till. Is there anything else?" She slightly smiles.
Brenda puts a hand on Deb's shoulder while saying, "No, not that I can think of right now..." She leads her away while the other three look at the camera while mouthing the words "Pick her" and making praying motions with their hands.
Derilyn "Dee" - The Crazy Rapper (DeeCeefromNattown)
Audition tape: The tape starts with an African American teenager filming himself. "Hello my name is Mitchell and my friend Dee asked me to record his audition. He is perfect for your show. He will do anything to win."
He turns the camera towards Dee. The camera shows they are on a bridge. "Hello Total Drama, my name is Dee. As you can see, I'm standing on a bridge gee." He raps. "What you don't know is that alligators are waiting to attack me when I jump off this thing. The funny thing you see is that you can't get rid of me. If you don't pick me, my butcher knife will meet with your throat you see. I'm the best physically and mentally. I'm crazy enough to stab myself N' then drink up the blood. Compared to me, them other musicians are sticks in the mud. Now I gotta go. Hope you pick me for your show. If not, you'll know where you messed when you get kidnap and end up with a slit throat. Peace." He stops. "BYYYYEEEE!" Dee adds in a creepy tone and leaps off the bride into the bayou. The gators surround him and begin to snap at him. They bring him down and he doesn't resurface before Mitchell turns off the camera.
Erika - The Matchmaker (Trixielulamoon323)
Audition tape: The camera shows a blonde teenage girl sitting on a bench in a flowery park. "Hi! I'm Erika: matchmaker extraordinaire! I've been in the matchmaking business for as long as I can remember, and if you see a smiling, happy couple in my town, you better believe that I helped bring them together!" A smiling, happy couple walks by in the background. Erika stops and waves at them. "Oh! Hi Kristy! Hi Brad!" The couple waves at her. Erika looks back at the camera. "Anyway, I've been watching Total Drama for a while now, and while the drama and eliminations were great and all, what really drew me in were the ADORABLE couples. So, if I am selected to compete on Total Drama Holiday, I promise to do all I can to help my fellow competitors find the true love they deserve!"
She pauses. There is a slight blush on her face and she starts playing with her hair. "And, you know, maybe find that one special guy for me..." She stays like this for a few seconds, then remembers that she is on camera. "OH! Uh... so... please pick me to compete on Total Drama Holiday! You won't regret it!"
Eun - The Fanfic Writer (FromanTheman)
Audition tape: A camera turns and displays a small Asian girl sitting on a bed. "Hello, Total Drama!" The girl says with a high pitched voice and thick Korean accent. "My name is Eun and I'd love to be on your show! I've written multiple fanfics about each contestant already. My most popular involves the famous Mandy/Jay/Elli love triangle! I'd like to think I'd be great for sure show because I could be a shining force of smiles! Plus, I'd love to see what actually being on the show is like. And maybe someone will write a fanfic about me! Wouldn't that be the coolest? Alright, pick me please!" She flashed a bright smile and shut the camera off.
Ignatius - The Criminal Pyromaniac (Asujoll)
Audition tape: The camera reveals a white guy holding a bat. "Sup, Total Drama?" He grins and approaches a nice vehicle. "Put me on the show. Why? I won't tell you why, I'll show you." He then begins to hit and destroy the car with the bat and the alarm goes off.
There is a voice in the background. "Hey! What are doing to my car!?"
Ignatius grabs the camera and starts running. "Pretty funny, huh?" He chuckles. "Anyway, I need the money for my bail so I'll pretty much do whatever it takes to win. I don't care much about what I have to do to get what I want." He jumps in a car with two other guys in it. "Let's go!"
"Ha, how's that for an audition?" One of the guys says.
"Let's go destroy another." Ignatius smirks. "Or set a house on fire or something." He looks at the camera. "Seeya on the show."
Liam - The Klutz (Curcle)
Audition tape: "Hi, my name is Liam!" The tall boy says. "I'm from...uh...Where, again? Never mind! I want to make a lot of new friends in Total Drama Holiday, since I don't really have any here..." He sighs and starts walking.
"Anyway, I have really good fishing skills, as you can see from my trophy here!" He gestures to his trophy of a very large fish, and leans towards it, only to fall on a fishing rod and impale his thumb with a hook. "Yeowww!" He yelps in pain and starts to suck on his thumb. "...I think we're done here."
Phoebe - The Friendly Photographer (Asujoll)
Audition tape: A short girl with pink hair steps back from the camera. "It's so weird to be in front of the camera this time." She says. "I'm usually behind it." She takes a deep breath, then relaxes and smiles. "Hello Total Drama producers. This is my audition for Total Drama Holiday! I'm a big fan of the show. I've never missed an episode." She thinks for a moment. "Oh, I want to be on the show because it'll be such a great experience and I kind of want to travel like they did last season! It'd be great to take pictures of the world for free." She smiles. "Yeah, I hope you pick me!"
Souun - The Silent Pacifist (Kunnaki)
Audition tape: The camera comes on and shows the sky as orange, meaning it is near sunset. The camera moves downward and shows a young man, who is moving around slowly as if he is in a trance. He is actually doing a Kata, and practicing his Tai Chi. He slowly moves around some more and then stops, as he is finished. He nods to the camera and silently expresses his desires to join the competition. He finishes, and silently sits down by a tree, meditating to himself. He murmurs and prays until the camera is turned off mysteriously.
Taylor - The Cyber Punk (CyanoticNightmare)
Audition tape: The screen turns on and shows a girl doing single-handed push ups. She looks up and grins, a piece of her Mohawk going out of place before she pushes it back.
"What's up asswipes!? Names Taylor." She smirks. "And I'd like to join this season because I need to get out of this house. My mom is thinking about kicking me out anyways... But! I promise you I can bring all the drama I can into this season. I play pranks, I don't care about people's feelings and I'm an expert manipulator." She laughs. "And I promise you... I can win this all by myself." She laughs again and the camera goes out.

Why Eliminated: Team thought he was annoying and saw him as a threat.
