Total Drama: The Phantom Cruiser

by Prof. Leafeon

Chris, with multiple Gemmys in his hand, has appealed to the producers to get his island back from the dead. Instead, the producers give him a boat. Chris invites 20 contestants on board with the prospects of winning, but all of them must beware the dreaded Plank where a certain unknown Fate awaits them. Trailer and Character intros are up now!

If you can guess the naming theme for the contestants, you win a virtual cookie!

In all seriousness, the person who gets it first will be able to choose the first elimination. I do have most of the season laid out, but it's a small concession for participating! (Disclaimer: All but ONE follows this theme)

Okay. Episode One is in progress, but here's the character intros (the first episode will go more in detail):

Contestant #1:

Quiet

"..." Quiet simply sat in her chair, while Chef waited expectantly for anything.

Contestant #2:

Awkward

"Are you like a psychic or something? I was literally just thinking about how I threw away my cat! You should be part of the government or something. Or the insane asylum."

Contestant #3:

Garden

"Well, I'm not really concerned with how I'm dressed," Garden said reasonably. "If I'm at least more wise than my other contestants, I'll make it pretty far. Plus my weird dress helps me be more relatable with the audience."

Contestant #4:

Ross

"I intend to paint a beautiful picture of this competition!" Ross cheered. "It's going to be a blast, let me just tell you!"

Contestant #5:

Violet

"I was working on beating the records on Splatoon when you called me here!" Violet crossed her arms unhappily.

Contestant #6:

Traeger

"Wow! That's amazing! That is literally the greatest thing I've ever heard!" Traeger said cheerfully

Contestant #7:

April

"I gave you a little line and then I yanked it away! It's what we in the business call an APRIL FOOL!"

Contestant #8:

Maestro

"We can conduct a beautiful concerto! I believe in this show after all," Maestro said arrogantly.

Contestant #9:

Sandra

"I'm basically a reality TV show veteran right now," Sandra bragged. "I'm going to crush this!"

Contestant #10:

Crystal

"This is like some kind of weird place," Crystal muttered.

Contestant #11:

Nearly

"I get a lot of slack for my name," Nearly said. "But I try to achieve all my goal, and I almost always nearly achieve them!"

Contestant #12:

Spore

"Can we please move on so I can go to sleep?" Spore yawned. "I'm already exhausted."

Contestant #13:

Karma

"Retribution, but with inclusion!" Karma cheered. "I heard that somewhere, but I can't exactly remember where..."

Contestant #14:

Jeff

"Honestly, it's kind of insulting." Jeff muttered. "I thought I was on top of the world, but here I am on a knock-off of Survivor!"

Contestant #15:

Dionysis

"I've been making farming tools for over fifteen years. I know a lot about basically everything."

Contestant #16:

Bianca

"This is just the greatest thing to ever happen to me," Bianca said. "Even if I don't win, hopefully I come back for a season two!"

Contestant #17:

Legs

"I'm known for my lower body strength," Legs bragged. "Running, swimming, I'm great at all of it!"

Contestant #18:

Hungry

"I hope that there's at least some kind of food on the ship.." Hungry sighed.

Contestant #19:

Destiny

"Everything comes down to fate. In everything you do, skill and luck are factors, but luck is more than skill."

Contestant #20:

Devin

"Honestly? I still have no idea what I'm doing here. I got signed up out of the blue, so here I am I guess."

Hopefully you'll check out the official first chapter, but this should give you a taste of all of the characters (and their weird names that hopefully someone figures out...). Any way, have a great day and I'll see you for the first episode of The Phantom Cruiser!
