Jeff Probst walked onto a boat, with a pleased look on his face.
"We've been searching long and hard for contestants willing to venture into the ruin-bound waters of Virmire. The contestants this season won't need to build shelter, as their camps will all be located in old geth bases still standing."
"Another thing, these 15 new contestants will be joined by 3 returning castaways. These castaways are returning for their second shot at the money. They were each eliminated early, and are seeking redemption."
The contestants started to be lead, by producers, out onto the boat.
"Last one remaining, as usual, wins a special prize; $1,000,000! Let me give you my perspective of each castaway."

Name: Garrus Vakarian
Age: 32
Species: Turian
Job: C-Sec Agent
Tribe: Tandang
Jeff's Assessment: Garrus is one of my favorites. I expect him to be a leader of whatever tribe he ends up on. However, as long as he's in the majority vote, he'll lead his alliance to the end, otherwise, he's an easy target come merge time.

Name: Javik
Age: 65
Species: Prothean
Job: Soldier
Tribe: Kalabaw
Jeff's Assessment: Here, physically 65 years of age, but yet has been in the world for nearly 50,000 years. For most of that time, he's been in stasis in virtual reality. Will his tribe see him as an asset because of his skill, or an early target because of his age.

Name: Grune
Age: 42
Species: Human
Job: N/A
Tribe: Kalabaw
Jeff's Assessment: Grune is an airhead, plain and simple. While she has some strength in her for a woman as old as her, she's gonna have to fit in, or she's not lasting long.

Name: Jelly Otter
Age: 19
Species: Otter
Job: N/A
Tribe: Matsing
Jeff's Assessment: Jelly is very young, naiive, but she has smarts. She can be off the wall at times, but that's what I like about her. I think Jelly can find herself in a good alliance, and go far.

Name: Senel Coolidge
Age: 23
Species: Human
Job: Mercenary
Tribe: Kalabaw
Jeff's Assessment: We cast a lot of players like Senel. The anti-social, yet very strong competitor in challenges. Senel will have to find a good alliance and stay loyal. That's all I have to say.

Name: Bubsy Bobcat
Age: 22
Species: Bobcat
Job: N/A
Tribe: Matsing
Jeff's Assessment: Oh boy. Bubsy will be jumping on and off the walls during this game, let me tell you that right now. He's from a game that failed to succeed, and quite honestly, while the games were terrible, I like Bubsy as a character, and I think Fanfiction will too.

Name: Mordin Solus
Age: 42
Species: Salarian
Job: Scientist / Doctor
Tribe: Matsing
Jeff's Assessment: Mordin speaks in short, sweet sentences. He is cut straight to the point, and does not like to ramble on and on about something no one is interested in. People call him a hamster on coffee, while I like to call him a good Survivor player.

Name: Thane Krios
Age: 54
Species: Drell
Job: Assassin
Tribe: Matsing
Jeff's Assessment: Thane's story is quite sad, but it makes him quite a target. He's old, but he does have some fight left in him. I root for Thane, because I really think he can do some major damage, and I think he can whoop some butt if his tribe gives him a chance.

Name: Moses Sandor
Age: 22
Species: Human
Job: Bandit
Tribe: Tandang
Jeff's Assessment: You've never seen a player like Moses. His plan, according to him, is to find a powerful player, and turn him into his own little puppet. If Moses can do that, he's worthy of winning and quite possibly topping players like Andrew Miller or Ben Tan.

Name: Tails Doll
Age: 18
Species: Puppet
Job: Minion of Robotnik's
Tribe: Matsing
Jeff's Assessment: A lot of people would be scared of the Tails Doll, but it's all rumors, and quite honestly he's a very nice guy, or doll, mind you. My only concern is that no one will trust him, and they'll vote him straight off.

Name: Nefarious Tropy
Age: 43
Species: Human
Job: Master of Time
Tribe: Tandang
Jeff's Assessment: Where do I start on N. Tropy? In my mind, N. Tropy reminds me of Kory from Emerald Hill. Kory wanted to take out the leader, and won't stop at it until he's the leader himself. N. Tropy is similar. He wants that leadership no matter what. Other then that, he's a sly, clever bastard.

Name: Gordon Ramsay
Age: 42
Species: Human
Job: Master Chef
Tribe: Tandang
Jeff's Assessment: Back on Fans vs. Favorites, I had Chef Gordon Ramsay host an episode, but sadly the reception was bad. Now, I decided to give Gordon a shot on Survivor. Honestly, he is nothing like he is on Hell's Kitchen. I do see Gordon being a strong leader, to be honest.

Name: Duncan
Age: 44
Species: Engine
Job: Engine
Tribe: Kalabaw
Jeff's Assessment: Duncan is someone who's too over confident in himself. He wants to get the job done the easy way, not the regular way. He'll try to find shortcuts so that nothing bad happens to him or his game. Sadly, that's really risky, and so few have done it well.

Name: Nostalgia Critic
Age: 33
Species: Human
Job: Critic
Tribe: Tandang
Jeff's Assessment: Nostalgia Critic was referenced in Reals vs OCs by the Angry Video Game Nerd, and was named as his rival. The critic is nothing like the nerd, but that doesn't mean he's good at the game of Survivor. He can go far if he plays his cards right.

Name: Anise Tatlin
Age: 21
Species: Human
Job: Fon Master Guardian
Tribe: Kalabaw
Jeff's Assessment: Anise is a little ball of energy, and I really, really like her spirit. Will she be useful for her tribe, maybe not. Regardless, she gives it her all and never backs down. I do see Anise going deep in the game, and I root for her 100% if she makes it to the finals.

Jeff smiled, "The three returning players are each individually from Redemption Island, Aquatic Ruin, and Forest Maze respectively. They all were voted off fairly early, and all seek redemption. The three returning, for a hint, are a hitman, a pony, and a thief. None of them are OCs. I hope you enjoy them."

The premier of Survivor Virmire will be October 22th, hopefully soon if I don't get writers block again. ^^
