Okay, after reading various TDI fics, I've had this nagging feeling that I HAD to write one of my own, so here it is!
FULL summary: TDI, TDA, and TDWT were complete gold mines! Chris, being ever so greedy hid even more fine print within each campers' contracts so now a select amount of veteran campers are returning for a fourth season, along with newly selected campers! There's a huge catch this time though; the new campers are not exactly normal – what was Chris thinking? The contestants will all be competing for the grand prize of 15 million!
Now, you might be wondering why the summary says that the new contestants aren't exactly "normal", that's easy! Every new camper will have a "super" power, which you can choose. Anything goes, like reading minds, being super fast, being super strong, being able to turn invisible, etc… Unfortunately, there is a catch, I do not want overly powerful characters like Superman, so all characters must have a weakness that is fairly easy to discover. Although, if you have an awesome idea for a power, but it seems on the verge of "too much" then giving your character weaknesses that are easy to figure out, or many weaknesses in general will work as well. We wouldn't want to over-power the other contestants, now would we?
Another thing, I am one of those people who love detail, so please make your application as detailed as possible!

Middle Name(s): Ignacio Henri
Last Name(s): Sterling
Age (14 – 18): 17
Sexuality (Bi, Gay, Lesbian, Hetero…): Bisexual
Appearance:
Hair: A dark crimson red, seems to naturally spike to his right, bangs are kind of long.
Eyes: Sharp, emerald green, narrow, can be warm at times.
Body: Fighter's build, somewhere between built and heavily built, is slightly more built on his upper body but the difference is unnoticeable.
Skin Tone: A warm golden tan from being always being outside.
Height (in x'n"): 5'7"
Weight: 135 lbs (90% muscle)
Clothes:

Swimsuit: Black swim trunks.
Gym Clothes: White/silver shorts that end just above his knees and a pair of white/gold indoor soccer shoes.
Pyjamas: Forest green boxers.
History (backstory):
Relationships (family): Born from a rich family, Jason has always been alone. His mother died giving birth to him, and his father has hated him ever since. All his life, Jason has been acting out so he can be acknowledged by his family, unfortunately his father never gave him a second glance - it didn't help that Jason gained his "ability" which further alienated him. Also the fact that Jason has no interest in taking over his fathers corporation, but instead wants to be a famous singer helps separate him from his father. Once he realized that his father would never spare him a glance, he began to put other peoples' happiness above his own.
How Did (He/She) Get (His/Her) Power: When Jason was ten, he stumbled into his father's study by accident while looking for "wolfie" a stuffed wolf that was the only remaining reminder of his mother. Tired, he opened a door that was marked "genetic manipulator online, do not enter". Inside, the room was dark, and he fumbled around trying to find a light switch. When he did find a switch, he flipped it on – only to notice that he was standing on a platform of some sort. Before he could do anything, he was engulfed by a ray of light. When he woke up, his father explained what had happened.
Personality:
Power(s) (Two Max): He can "control" his cellular structure… but it takes loads of fuel.
Weaknesses: Physically unable to swim, and thus will not go near large bodies of water, in order to be able to manipulate his cellular structure he has to eat loads of food – like more food than Owen can eat.
Stereotype (completely optional): The Enigmatic Hero.
Personality: Jason is kind to a fault, but is extremely wary of people. He wears a mask over his true personality. That mask consists of always being happy, being entirely selfless, and kind to others. Around other people he is a bubbly and kind person, but when he's alone he shows his true personality. His true personality is that he is fiercely loyal to his friends and would do anything to get them out of danger. He is not always happy, but he is still very empathetic. He is a quiet nature lover at heart, and would much rather be in the woods alone than in a crowd full of people.
He's not very easy to anger but when he is angered, he tends to lose self control and will proceed to smash the other person into oblivion. Fortunately, before he goes out of control, he'll walk away from whatever/whoever is angering him so that he doesn't hurt anyone. Altogether, he's an enigma to most people.
Fears: Being unloved (keeps this secret at all costs), large bodies of water, sharks, drowning.
Likes: Music, nature, long walks, soccer, spending time with friends, singing (has a great voice but is shy to sing around people)
Dislikes:
Talents: Singing, playing the piano, playing soccer ( is a pro and plays as a forward), and fighting.
Things Character Is Terrible At: Not book smart like Noah (still is kind of book smart… like more on Trent's level), cannot dance (at all), can't write any type of literature, bad at handling clingy people, and very bad at handling crying people.
Hobbies: Playing the piano, singing, taking long walks around nature before bed, and playing soccer.
Reactions:
To Pranks: Usually would look at himself and laugh it off, but if the prank goes too far then he'll get even.
To Winning a Challenge: Does a fist pump and says, "yes! Guys we did it! Awesome!"
To Losing a Challenge: Looks around at teammates and lowers head before saying, "sorry guys, I made us lose the challenge."
To Being Eliminated: Looks sad, but then looks over to friends and grins because even though there was major drama, he knows he had a good time.
Relationships:
Who Could Become Friends With Your Character: Anyone who's non-manipulative, nature lovers,
Who Would be an Enemy: Manipulative people, people who are mean to his friends, people who are arrogant, and people who backstab others.
Relationship? If yes, then what kind of person would match your character? Someone fun but serious, who finds him puzzling and wants to know why he's the way he is. Someone who can lead others and help guide him when he's angry. Someone who could understand him, and understand his secrets.
How Does Your Character View…
Chris: If Jason wasn't a contestant, he'd find Chris funny. Unfortunately, Jason is a contestant, and therefore finds Chris funny but seriously annoying.
Chef: Jason finds Chef's stories interesting but is a little intimidated by Chef altogether.
What TDI character(s) would your character like to compete against and why? Owen; he's crazy and lovable. Jason would probably have fun pranking people with Owen helping out. Gwen because she nearly won TDI, and Jason thinks that she'd make a good opponent. Duncan because Jason has a few things he'd like to say to Duncan.
Audition Tape: *Camera shows a red head male up in a tree trying to get a cat. He slides himself closer to the cat and scoops up the feline before it can run away.* "There we go. Toby, I thought your mommy didn't want you to climb trees anymore. Silly cat." The red head murmurs while petting the orange tabby. *The cat decides to launch itself at the red head, causing the boy to fall off the tree and land in an awkward position. A sickening crunch is heard. The cameraman runs towards the red head.*
"Jason, are you alright?" A voice says from behind the camera. *The camera zooms in on Jason. Jason groans but manages to get up. Jason's hand is bent in a creepy way.* "Uh, dude, I don't think your bone's supposed to be like that." The cameraman says. *Jason grimaces before concentrating on his hand. Suddenly, his hand starts to reposition itself back to normal. Jason moves his left hand experimentally and nods to himself. He looks at the camera.*
"Hey, I'm hungry. Do you want to get lunch?"
Okay, I will be taking 16 contestants, so apply and best of luck!
