Author's Note- Good evening everyone. For nearly a decade, Total Drama has been a trademark of greatness for many of us: from watching the original seasons on our televisions at home, to the catchy theme song, to the tremendous Fanfiction community that has produced many great stories over the years. I've joined Fanfiction to contribute to this legacy with a story of my own, hopefully one that will captivate and excite many of you reading this today.

With this, I promise to deliver frequent updates, enticing storylines, and a Total Drama theme that will trigger some nostalgia for fans young and old. You see, I absolutely adore writing the original cast. Although this is my first story, I've contributed to stories in the past in various places. From the fan favorites like Cody and Izzy to the less popular characters, the original 22 cast members were phenomenal. But...I have a different idea. I want to tell a story about a world in which things happened...differently. Chris McLean is the host, but as for the competitors...

What if those 22 teenagers were never chosen? What if it had been a completely different group of cast members, or challenges? How would things turn out?

These are the questions I want to answer for you, my fellow fans.

But I need your help. I understand that creating your own character isn't a "new" idea. But my intention is to create a deep and thoughtful universe for your characters to exist in and interact with one another in a way that feels genuine. A truly great story.

I will need 22 cast members, so each of you may submit up to 2 applications, as well as your own challenge idea. I'm excited to see what you all have in mind. With that being said, here is the application you'll need, and you may submit this via PM OR review. It's up to you.
