Choose your Main Character: 

1. Everest "Eve" 

Everest, often referred to as Eve, is a reserved and enigmatic figure with a natural brilliance that sets them apart. Identifying as non-binary but still closeted, they navigate the complexities of their identity privately, tucking it away behind their sharp intellect and graceful demeanor. As an only child, Eve grew up in a quiet, controlled environment, shaped by homeschooling that focused on cultivating their immense intellectual potential.  

Their mind is their greatest asset; they're a prodigy with a knack for absorbing knowledge like a sponge, excelling in everything from advanced mathematics to intricate coding. Despite their academic prowess, their isolated upbringing has left them unpracticed in social interactions outside the boundaries of their home and online communities. While they can hold articulate and well-informed conversations in virtual spaces, face-to-face interaction tends to leave them feeling awkward and self-conscious.  

Physically, Eve is strikingly attractive, their beauty a mix of effortless elegance and quiet charm. With delicate features that catch the light just so, they possess an ethereal quality that often leaves people captivated. Their androgynous style enhances their allure, blending soft, flowing fabrics with clean, sharp lines, reflecting the duality of their hidden self and outward presentation.  

2. Anastasia 

Anastasia is a determined and fiercely independent 16-year-old with an imposing presence that commands attention. Born in Russia, she moved to Canada at 14, bringing with her the discipline and grit of a future Olympian. Standing tall at 5’8”, her height, athletic build, and piercing gaze make her a natural at intimidating anyone who dares to challenge her.  

She’s tough as nails, refusing to tolerate nonsense from anyone and unafraid to speak her mind. Anastasia has a competitive streak and will stop at nothing to achieve her goals, whether it’s dominating in sports or proving her point. Beneath her steely exterior, however, lies a deep passion for her craft and a strong sense of loyalty to those she cares about. A relentless achiever, Anastasia is not just an athlete but a force to be reckoned with.  

3. Ashley "Ash"   

Ashley, better known as Ash, is a fiery and spirited tomboy who’s often mistaken for a guy—a misconception her short red hair and laid-back style only reinforce. Living with her mom and little sister in a cozy house near a boxing arena, Ash grew up surrounded by the thrill of the sport, spending countless afternoons watching matches and soaking up the electric atmosphere.  

Her personality is as bold as her hair—rowdy, tough, and unafraid to stand her ground. Ash thrives on energy and action, often roughhousing or getting into playful scuffles. Yet beneath her boisterous demeanor lies a compassionate heart; she has a soft spot for her family and friends, always stepping up when someone needs her. Fiercely loyal and unapologetically herself, Ash is the kind of person who’ll fight for what she believes in, both inside and outside the ring.  

4. Christian 

Christian is a towering presence at 6’5”, a height that might make most assume he’s a basketball player—until they learn he’s a talented baseball athlete with his eyes set on the big leagues. Quiet and reserved, Christian tends to keep to himself, preferring to observe others from a distance rather than engage in idle chatter. Despite his introverted nature, he possesses a quiet determination and drive that fuel his ambition to one day make it to the professional level.  

Christian is bisexual but leans more toward an interest in men, though his reserved personality means he keeps his feelings close to his chest. While his demeanor may come off as aloof, those who take the time to know him find a thoughtful and deeply dedicated individual who puts his all into every endeavor. For Christian, it’s not just about the game—it’s about proving himself, chasing his dreams, and one day shining under the stadium lights.  

Who are you?

Chapter Text

You stood on top of a small yacht, You friend had dared you to go on a random TV show and you foolishly agreed. Yet the closer the boat got the more you regretted your decision 

"This is stupid, why am I even doing this, reality TV? Seriously" You mumbled as your boat approached the private island spotting a few contestants your age and a man looking to be in his late twenties. 

"And here comes Christian, Nice name by the way" Chris Mclean, the Host and face of the show, greeted you as you hopped on the dock.

"This looks like a summer camp." You note 

"It is" Chris shrugs 

"Isn't that like.. false advertising?"

"Wow! who knew baseball players could be so smart?" He chuckles. 

You walk to your fellow contestants only to have one of them laugh at you.

"What freak show did you come from, Giant?" A delinquent with the most horrific fashion sense you have ever seen. "The same one you got your hair dye from, Chernobyl" You could see a few people laughing which boosted your ego a tad bit. Before you could do anything else you spotted another Jock and grinned. Yes! someone you could relate to! 

"Hey I'm Christian, you can just call me CJ, you?" The brown haired boy pointed at himself, making you nod. "Uh Tyler, Woah dude, you're tall." You cringe, what was with everyone pointing out your height? "I know…What do you play? I play baseball if you couldn't tell" Tyler purses his lips in a thin line "uhh everything?" He says unsure making you nod awkwardly and walk to end of the dock

You distracted yourself until you heard music, "where the hell is that coming froo- whoa" you cut yourself off because your eyes had seen a man blessed what you could only call the beauty of Aphrodite herself. You gulp "I'm so glad I came to this show" 

"First things first! We need a group photo for the promos. Everyone at the end of the dock!" You didn't notice the rest of the contestants but could hear the cracking of the docks. "There's no way that's holding everyone properly" You mutter, deciding to stand at the edge next to a cute blonde ditz and a ginger. 

"Okay! One, two, three. Oops. Okay, forgot the lens cap! Okay, hold that pose! One! Tw– oh. No, wait. Card’s full." A black chick complained about the stalling. "Got it. Okay, everyone say “Wawanakwa!”" 

Everyone did as told before the dock collapsed in on itself. You groaned "knew something was wrong.." you see a big guy with a "D" on his shirt panicking and decide to help him out "hey grab my hand dude!" He grabs your entire arm instead, causing you to stumble in shock before swimming to shore. 

"You okay big guy?" You wrung out your shirt. "Yeah, thanks man, Name's Dj by the way" Dj introduces himself making you nod "Christian" Chris calls you all to a campfire. You don't manage to find a seat so end up standing. 

"This… is camp Wawanakwa, your home for the next eight weeks. The campers sitting around you will be your cabin mates, your competition, and maybe even your friends. Ya dig? The camper who manages to stay on Total Drama Island the longest without getting voted off will win $100,000!" Everyone cheers.  

"Scuse me. What will the sleeping arrangements be? Because I’d like to request a bunk under her" the delinquent that had commented on your height pointed at an Asian chick that looked like she really didn't want to be here. The girl in disgust or maybe fear asks if the beds are co-ed to which Chris replies no. 

"Excuse me, Kyle? Can I have a cabin with the lake view since I’m the prettiest?" The ditz blonde you were next to said, causing you to grin. "Okay, you are. But that’s not really how it works here, and it’s Chris." And your grin fell just as fast 'is he… flirting with a 16 year old?' you frown, deciding not to think about it too much. 

Two "twins" proceed to whine about not being together. A goth girl complains about the situation and Tyler complains about sleeping next to the delinquent who is currently bullying a deer. 'What the hell is wrong with these people?' 

Chris starts speaking again "Here’s the deal. We’re gonna split you into two teams. If I call your name out, go stand over there. Gwen. Trent. Heather. Cody. Lindsay. Beth. Katie. Owen. Leshawna. Christian. Justin. And… Noah. From this moment on, you are officially known as… The Screaming Gophers" Chris threw Owen a banner, Causing the overweight boy to celebrate.

"Wait, what about Sadie?" Said one of the twin girls. Chris ignores her like the asshole he is and names the other team, "The rest of you over here. Geoff. Bridgette. DJ. Tyler. Sadie. Izzy. Courtney. Ezekiel. Ash. Duncan. Eva. And… Harold! Move, move, move, move!" The second half of the twin pair started whining as well causing a girl to try and comfort her. 'How can you rely on someone that much?' you shook your head in pity. 

'At least most of my team is hot. Maybe this wasn't a total waste of my time' You stared at the "Hottie with a body" Justin in front of you "Yeah this was 100% worth it." You mumble.

"All right, campers. You and your team will be on camera in all public areas during this competition." Chris informed us. "How nice…" you roll your eyes. 

*Confessional*

You sit down in the confessional "This is disgusting, I'm not having fun. Stupid dare, Jerry if you're watching this" You threw up a middle finger. 

*Confessional end*

"All right. Any questions? Cool. Let’s find your cabins." Chris leads you all to small cabins and the girls enter theirs, you're about to go to yours when you see a skinny brunette guy getting thrown out of the girls cabin. You walk towards him and pick him up. "The hell were you doing in there?" He gulped "uhh I got lost?" You dragged him and threw him into the guys cabin. "Thank you!" You heard the goth girl girl from earlier yell giving her a thumbs up in response. 

You hear an eye piercing scream from the other cabin and decide its best to mind your business. If someone's getting murdered, it ain't your business.

You and everyone else stood in the cafeteria where a burly man proceeded to yell at you before plating the souls and hearts of his past victims on your trays. 

"Yeah I'll just starve" you walk to sit down pushing the disgusting meal away from you. 

"Welcome to the main lodge." Chris walks in and the chef attempts murder after Geoff tries to ask for pizza. "Your first challenge begins in one hour!" You hear Dj jinx everyone by saying "how hard can it be?" 

You're standing on a cliff…below water…with sharks swimming below. "I came to die. I came to die. I came to die." I mutter. 

"Your first task is to jump off this 1,000 foot high cliff into the lake." Chris announced. 

"Ohhh fuck" 

Do you jump? 

A - Be brave and jump

B - Chicken o ut 

C - find and excuse to not jump without seeming like a coward
