"Hello and welcome to the newest season of the hottest reality show on television! I'm your host, the ever wonderful Chris McLean!" Chris announced from the famous Dock of Shame on Camp Wawanakwa. "This season, we decided to invite twenty-two new contestants from all around the world to compete in our own special brand of tortu-I mean challenges! The winner will receive the grand prize of $1,000,000 and fame for themselves and their country! So send in your applications and we'll see if you deserve to embarrass yourself on Total Drama Nations!"
As I'm sure those of you have read LAOP may know, I am completely incapable of staying off the bandwagon givn enough time. How does that relate to this story? I've seen plenty of stories like this and entered for a few of them, and I decided to give it a try for myself. But enough about that. On to the application, though there are a few rules I would like to explain first.
-Try to be original. I don't want to get 100 of the same type of character and I don't want to get clones of the original characters. I also don't want perfect characters as they are unrealistic.
-Each reviewer is limited to submitting two characters for now. If I need more, I may or may not change that, but I make no promises.
-I will be accepting two OCs from any one country, one boy and one girl. This does not mean that every country needs to have two characters, but that is the limit.
-Please try to take your time with the application so that you don't turn in a rushed app. Quality is the most important with this.
-I will be accepting 10 boys and 10 girls since I will be submitting two of my own characters (readers control eliminations, so they won't win unless you allow it)
-As proof that you read these rules, include "Bat Credit Card" somewhere in your app
-All OCs are eligible for pairing unless you specifically request for them not to be eligible, though not all will be used in a pairing.
-Here's the application now!

She has extremely low self confidence and constantly feels like nobody likes her, no matter what they tell her. She has problems making friends and tends to just hide behind whatever is on hand instead of interacting unless she's forced to.

She has an obsession with dinosaurs and owns a dinosaur hat that she refuses to take off for any reason.

History: Amy was born into a small family of just her parents and older sister. As she grew up, she was constantly ignored by other children her age, which only got worse when she got into high school. While there, the few times she wasn't ignored, she was being embarressed by the more popular girls in school. Eventually, it got to the point where she barely ever left her room. Her sister, Bianca, finally got fed up with it and forced Amy to audition for Total Drama Nations.

Reason for Auditioning: She hopes to use the money to start her singing career and hopes that the experience will help her self-confidence
Audition Tape:The camera cuts on in a hallway outside a door marked with a dinosaur poster. "Okay. I'm Bianca and this is my sister Amy's room. Hopefully we can catch her by surprise," Bianca said, opening the door quickly and running in. A girl with long black hair, violet eyes and wearing a T-Rex hat is briefly shown on screen before diving under her bed. "No Amy! You promised you'd do this for me!" Bianca shouted, crawling on all fours and joining her sister under the bed. "So this is Amy. Say hi Amy."
"H-Hi A-Amy," Amy said, shaking violently.
"That's as good as I'm gonna get, huh? Fine. Why don't you tell the nice Total Drama people why you want to audition?" Bianca said with a sigh.
"Be-Be-Because you're ma-ma-making me," Amy replied, trying to crawl away from her sister.
"Not that reason. What about you tell them about you're dream? You know, to be a singer?" Bianca said, reaching her hand out to stop Amy. Before she could grab the other girl, she quickly ran out from under the bed and out the room. "Well there you go. Amy really needs this chance to meet new people. Please just pick her so that she can make a friend. Please?" Bianca begged before shutting the camera off.
Anything else: She has a violet birthmark on her cheek that looks like a bruise

Name (First and Last): Patrick Spring
Nicknames: Pat
Age: 17
Stereotype: The Environmentalist
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Straight
Hometown, Country: Berlin, Germany
Allergies/Medical Conditions: N/A
Eyes: Large emerald green eyes
Hair: Shoulder length green hair, naturally black
Height: 5'7"
Weight: 135 lbs
Body type: Thin with a small amount of muscle
Skin tone: Tanned
Personality: Pat often seems like the nicest person in the world. The guy willing to help anybody in need no matter how mean they were. The guy who would never tell anybody anything rude because he's just incapable of thinking like that. The guy everybody wants to be friends with. The sensitive type who would spend hours crying if anything happened to his plants. The truth is that Pat is extremely self-centered and only associates with people who can do something for him. The minute they are no longer useful to him, he toss them aside like an old toy. He almost never gets angry or upset, hiding how he feels and instead giving off the emotions he needs to get people on his side. The only times when he really shows his real self is when he has no reason to disguise who he is. He loves gardening and plants in general and considers them more precious than other humans.
Everyday Clothes: A green hoodie and jeans with no shoes
Bathing Suit: Green swimming trunks
Sleep wear: A green tanktop and boxers
Formalwear: A button down shirt and slacks with dress shoes, all in green
History: From the time he was eleven, Pat had displayed his skill at manipulation, starting with making his parents do whatever he wanted. Using that skill, Pat was able to get everybody at his high school on his side, making a name for himself as an environmetalist and head of the gardening club. Anybody who tried to say anything bad about him were usually ignored since poor Pat could never do any wrong. And that was just how he wanted them to think.
Talent: Acting
Fears: Parasailing
Likes: The color green, plants, butterflies, bees, cake, candy, oranges
Dislikes: Stupid people, people trying to manipulate him, meat (he is a vegetarian), wolves, people who destroy nature
Strengths: Manipulating people, growing plants, expert liar
Weaknesses: Too stubborn to accept any advice, very low tolerance for pain
How do they act around friends?: Polite and kind, but scheming against them in secret
How do they act around enemies?: Acts like they are mistreating him wrongfully and schemes to get them eliminated
How do they act around their crush?: Same as anybody else
Who would they like as a BF/GF?: He isn't interested in romance, especially during the show, though he often flirts with girls to manipulate them
How do they act around Chris and Chef?: Trys to kiss up to them in the hopes of getting help during the challenges
Reason for Auditioning: Wants to use the money to create a private botanical garden
Audition Tape: The camera cuts on to show a teenage boy with a tatoo of an ivy vine wrapping around his left arm sitting in a cafe. "Hi Total Drama! I'm Patrick Spring! I just wanted to say that-"
"Pat!" a girl shouted, running to Pat's table carrying a salad. "I bought this for you! I know how much you like them!" she said, placing the salad on the table before running off.
"Thanks Amber!" Pat called after the girl with a chuckle. "Sorry about that. Friend from school. Anyway-"
"There you are!" a teenaged boy said, carrying a bag of candy. "Hey chief! Thought you might like some candy during your audition. It hasn't started yet, has it?"
"Yeah it has. Why don't you join me?" Pat said, taking the bag of candy as the other boy sat down. "Um...Okay! So this is Raymond, part of my gardening club at school. So, let's just move on hopefully," Pat continued on as another girl came over to his table, carrying a large cake.
"Here you go Pat! One chocolate cake for you!" she said, winking at Pat before sitting down.
"Cool," Pat said laughing before remembering he was still giving an audition. "Sorry about that. I have a lot of friends and they all like to do things like this for me. Anyway, I guess they'll just keep coming so maybe we should end this audition now. Hope you pick me," Pat finished right before the camera shut off.
Anything else: He has a tatoo of an ivy vine wrapped around his left arm
Challenge Ideas: See above
Needless to say, girls from Italy and boys from Germany will not be accepted. Anyway, I've got nothing else to say except to those people who read LAOP as well. It will still be getting written and I will attempt to work on both stories as efficiently as possible. With that, this opening chapter is now over. R&R!
