Hey! I'm Anna, and I'm writing this so my summer isn't bland. Italy is boiling and I don't exactly enjoy going outside when it's like that... so that's why I think I'll do this instead! Something useful, aye?
So I am doing a SYOC, which I will hopefully not give up on. My native language is not English, therefore my grammar may be a bit rocky, too. (Thank God for spell check.)
So without further ado... I present...
Total Drama Pazzoide!
*Pronounced Pattz- zoid-ay*
The stocky host stands with his back to the camera, ravenous black hair being blown around by the island's tropical breeze. A theme intro plays as he spins around, a glistening white smile appearing on his face.
"Hello, international viewing world! Are you a fan of Total Drama? Do you wish you could compete for the million? Say no more! My name is Chris MacLean, and welcome to our newest installment of Total Drama! I'm reporting to you from Veneto, Italy, from a tiny island we have illegally named Pazzoide, which translates to Insanity!" Chris chuckles maniacally, though it doesn't particualarly sound evil.
Why did he say illegally? I wonder if it's safe to go there...
"The Total Drama franchise is looking for 16 new contestants to compete on the next season! Will it be you?"
Will it?
"We are not responsible for injury, dismemberant, influenza, or any other possible injuries and/or infections you recieve. Keep that in mind, I guess." He shrugs, his eyes closing before he smirks. "The application is on our website. I hope to see you here in Italy! Ciao! Oh, wait, that's hello, right?"
The screen goes static.

Full Name (First and last required, middle is optional): Ariana Carboni
Nicknames: Ari, Anna, Carbon, Italy
Stereotype: The Italian Hippie
Age (15-18): 17
Family: Her mother named Amara, 43, her father named Giorgo, 47, and her older brother Alessio, 18.
Nationality: Italian
Sexuality: Straight
Religion (Optional): Agnostic Athiest
Personality: Ariana is a very oblivious girl, who is easily distracted. She isn't the smartest, therefore her looks get her through. She's quite a hippie and very nice. She uses common sense and is relatively smart, but doesn't always show it. She's optimsitic and caring, but she has a short temper, and her most fatal flaw is her curiosity.
Bio: Ariana was raised in a down to Earth family, who supported nature and all things weird. She was a smart kid who knew weird facts about stupid things, and most people called her Ariana the Weird. She took interest in art and gardening and eventually became home schooled. Now she's a solid C student with curiosity that's almost nonexistent.
Appearance-
Hair Color/Style: Dark brown, worn down with a flower crown. It's also wavy with caramel highlights in it.
Eyes: Dark brown, and almond shaped.
Celebrity Look-A-Like: Samantha Boscarino
Build: Average height, thin body.
Skin Color: Tan, white.
Accessories: A charm bracelet
Day Clothes: A white sundress, with a tan floral cardigan over it. She also wears brown sandals.
Pajamas: A pink tee shirt with the words Liberta e Pace, black shorts, and kitty socks.
Formal Wear: A yellow dress and black Mary-Janes. Her hair is more pulled back and she wears more make-up.
Swim Wear: A bubblegum pink one-piece.
Miscellaneous-
Relationship: Sure!
If Yes, then with who? (Stereotype, Gender, Personality): Probably more of a nicer guy, with a courageous side.
Likes: Nature, art, drawings, sweets, the clouds, boys, animals, European history
Dislikes: Blood, death, bullies, seccession, sexism, racism, snobs
Strengths: She can dance, she can garden, and she has a good fashion sense.
Weaknesses: She's curious, she's oblivious, she's not athletic, and she lacks a lot of intelligence.
Phobia: Ari has a fear of roller coasters: Her parents took her and Alessio to a carnival... and let's just say someone fell off and was stuck at the hospital.
Deepest Secret: Ariana once told her ex-boyfriend to jump off a bridge... and he did.
Audition Tape: A young girl smiles as she sits in front of the camera. "Ciao! My name is Ariana Carboni, and I am auditioning to compete on Total Drama this season! I'm an avid learner and I enjoy nature, which is just why I believe I'm fit for this show! I also think that- ooooh! Is that... a canary?!" She wanders off and the camera falls off of the table. It cuts to static.
Because I'm a goody two shoes, here's my list of rules.
1. Be original! No copies of the real characters or someone else's OC.
2. Be descriptive. If the personality is only one sentence, then I don't think I'll want to accept them unless I'm desperate. Then we'll work it out.
3. PM or review the app. Nuff said.
4. Can we be various and not only send in girls? I've seen SYOCs before, and people sure like to submit girls, that is, if you're a girl. Guys from time to time will, and I want to break that habit! (Determination, folks! :3) I'll definitely need some girls, though...
5. Please no superpowers... I have a hard time writing those in, and so unless it fits the character extremely well, then I won't really be able to accept them. :/
5. Don't be a sore loser if your character isn't chosen or is eliminated. I will be doing aftermaths, and if I don't pick your character, you'll see them as interns.
And finally, a few stereotypes I hope we can submit!
The Dumb Blonde (Girl or Guy)
An Evil One (Same as above)
The Crazy One (Girl or guy)
and
The Goody Two Shoes (Either gender)
I can't wait to see your applications, and I hope you'll take a chance on me wiht your OCs. Bye!
