Hopefully, this will help the characters become more than just a name and a label until the story gets going.
"While I tend to not like chance…"
[ Harold "Harry" Zukenmeyer - the Gambler ]
"I feel good about my odds against you."
Harry comes from a not so well off environment. His mother and he would normally resort to gambling their money, using their winnings for nourishment. By honing this skill for seventeen years, he's sure he can stretch his mind for a reality competition in hopes of winning his mother a retirement fund. While a gambler might be one to act on the thrill, Harry is one who floats more on logic. His mother actively taught him growing up that gambling was not only for the fun of it, but rather a game of chance, and one can bend the chance to their will. Stay tuned to see how Harry's gambler strategy fares in Total Drama Qatilat.
"Of course I trust them…"
[ Christopher Hide - the Happy-Go-Lucky Idiot ]
"They're my best friend!"
As you can probably tell from the title, Christoper isn't the sharpest tool in the shed as production realized when he said "Totally Theatrical" and "Full Theatre" in replacement for Total Drama. It also happens to occur throughout his childhood; see, he has never really made any friends before, and he joins the game in hopes of creating some as well as having a fun summer. Christopher plans to glide this game using the power of friendship. Hopefully, he doesn't rub the contestants the wrong way with his immense optimism and his partial awkwardness. Stay tuned to see if Christopher can make friends at all in Full Theatre Qatilat.
"Everyone has a price…"
[ Tony Marmalade - the Greedy Conman ]
"I just make sure they come at a discount."
Tony comes from a well off background. His parents are successful car dealers, which, due to their charisma and ease of bargaining, is what put him on track to being a conman. He has, not so much as committed crime, there are ways around that, you see, but he has pulled enough to grant himself his own property and create a fortune of his very own. Why Qatilat, you ask? Well, the money, of course, but also experience. He wants to see how far his skills stretch. On teenagers, it should be easy enough. Or will it? Find out on Total Drama Qatilat…
"Me is strong. Me is fight…"
[ Katniss Monroe - the Wild Child ]
"And Me is win!"
Until about a year and a half ago, Katniss lived in a jungle, just like Tarzan did. A well-off family, known as the Monroes, found her and rescued her. She tends to know little about society, aside the parts that her guardians taught her for the little time they have had her. Her family had signed her up so she could make new friends and possibly learn about the world around her, in a survival-esque way, which might not have been the worst idea in the world. As long as she can cooperate enough with her teammates, she should be a survival and physical threat, which may get her kicked out of the show if she isn't careful. Will Katniss be able to make friends, or will her lack of self-control get in the way? Find out on Total Drama Qatilat…
"I promise this to you…"
[ Larissa Banks - the Rich Matchmaker ]
"I will help you find your true love."
Larissa wants to spread love like butter. Not so much as get into a relationship herself, but she would be totally down for it. Yeah, she'll play the game, but creating long-lasting relationships is what will truly make her feel like a winner. She could matchmake for hours; it's one of her favorite things to do. Though, if you get on her bad side, it will be a world of rage for you. Larissa has a hell of a social game up her sleeve, but it could get blown up at once. Stay tuned for Total Drama Qatilat.
"If you're in this with me, you better be 100% committed…"
[ Selena Henson - the Reckless Racer ]
"Because if you aren't, I won't hesitate to run you over!"
By first glance at Selena, you wouldn't believe she was raised as a well-off child, given all the toys she could have ever dreamt of. She got a little tired of her parent's lack of attention and abundance of rules, thus, she drove away in her father's favorite sports car, becoming the queen of the streets within days. Selena auditioned to this show on a dare, rather than anything else, and now that she's in, she's in it to win it. She might be a big social threat in this competition, as she knows how to really let loose, and has a little experience on picking up some street smarts. Stay tuned to see how far Selena's car goes before it crashes, if it crashes at all, on Total Drama Qatilat.
I hope that gives you a grasp on what the character is about. Let me know what you guys think about the first few characters so far.
