*knock knock*
"Come in!" says a familiar voice.
The door opens revealing a prospective applicant for the Total Drama show. The 2 people already in the interview room are revealed to be the infamous reality show host Chris McLean and his long-time partner, Chef Hatchet. They are sitting on a table with a laptop each on front of them. Chris has the interview schedule for his new show as well as the applicant's audition tape on his screen. On the other hand, Chef Hatchet has a video recording application started on his laptop. There is a chair on the other side of the table as the interview process for that applicant begins.
"Ah, welcome potential contestant! Please, have a seat!" Chris says as he extends his hand, inviting the applicant to sit.
The applicant sits down as they prepare for the interview to hopefully get into the all new season: Total Drama: Virtual Reality, a no-holds barred show that is not bound by the limits of the real world. The only limit is the imagination of Chris and Chef and the $1,000,000 prize is already set for the winner of the 24 greenlit contestants.
"As you know, we're looking for competitors for our all new and revolutionary show, Total Drama Virtual Reality or TDVR for short. The ones we've had in the last couple of seasons are living their own lives so we'll need some fresh blood. That's where YOU come in, hopefully. Now, you've submitted your audition tape and we LOVE what we saw. In this interview process, we'd like to get to know you a little bit better before the producers decide to greenlight you for our show. Just answer the questions we have for you and you're all set. And remember, there is NO wrong answer!" Chris explains.
You can choose whether you answer the questions as if you were responding to Chris McLean or not, it doesn't really matter. Put in as much info as you'd like me to work with and as long as you have the information down, you're good to go! :)

You can leave your applications in the reviews or my PMs. Though PMs is suggested because they are easier to respond to and I can actually inform you of my decision. I have 12 slots for guys and 12 slots for girls!
COUPLE OF FYIs:
1. Though I will try to portray your character to the best of my ability, I will not to able portray your character 100% to your liking simply because there are many characters I must portray the best I can.
2. If I reject your character, I will usually leave you with a reason that you can revise upon and re-sumbit.
3. Do not be offended if I have your character go out early or have a not-so-good ending. There are 24 contestants, not everyone gets the Holy Grail of endings. I have absolutely nothing against you or your character.
4. I am open to constructive criticism but please do not flame me with hate comments just because your character didn't have the ideal path.
5. I may not use everything you've sent in your application. Remember, your character submission is simply what I have to work with.
6. If a chapter is that bad, I will revise it but I probably won't change the main idea of what happens.
7. I will commit to finishing the story but it will take time for chapters to be uploaded. Planning the chapter is harder than writing it and I have to do a lot of planning. Plus I have other interests too. I will try to have a consistent upload time.
8. If you didn't see it already, I don't like Mary Sues/Gary Stus.
9. There will be the fictional element of virtual reality, but please: REALISTIC CHARACTERS!
