Hello, one and all. This time around, we'll be sending *Insert number here* amount of contestants to our summer camp, Wawanakwa. In this RP the entire goal is to create stereotyped characters to represent your common reality show personalities. These parodical individuals will then be sent to our island for six weeks to participate in a series of challenges the would probably cause any human rights activists to lose their minds. The campers will all be competing for $100,000, and after each challenge, the ever eventful bonfire ceremony will be held to determine which camper will be voted off. Who are the voters, you ask? The other campers of course! The game will start with the cast being split up into two even teams, and the first challenge will be held the moment the cast arrives, so as to determine who gets the reward selected. This is an example of a Reward Challenge, where the players will not be competing for survival, but simply additional luxury to take advantage of along with their... Basic accomadations. After so many campers are left, the teams will be dissolved, and a dramatic free for all will ensue. That's where the fun begins. Also, on the island, contestants are free to use the Confessional any time they choose... Actually, they have to, at least periodically. Part of the contract. Rules: •Make more than one character. the votes will be determined on characters' experience, not the players'. It's key to make sure that you remain in the game after your character was voted off, since someone will be booted at every bonfire. •Make your character reasonable. Everyone has varying morals, fears, and standards- some more than others. Variety=Interestingness... Not a word, but still. •New characters are more than welcome at the end of each season, when the setting is changed. •Keep it funny. Ludicrous and far-fetched. That's the entire idea behind this RP. Drama and comedy. •The Confessional is a camera taped to the inside of an outhouse door... So, that's to give you an idea of what it is, how to use it, and etcetera. Also the kind of ridiculousness accepted in this RP. •Know your limits. This applies to... Well, everything. •Let's have as much fun as possible. I'll be playing your extremely narcissistic host, Chris McLean, and your chef who couldn't give a crap about whether his food is still alive or not, Chef Hatchet. I may throw in a contestant or two as well. Questions? Feedback? Wanna go ahead and sign up? You are more than welcome to do so here! Name: Age: (this show's participants are all 16-18) Gender: (If name is gender neutral) Appearance: Motivation: Backstory: Personality: Misc: (Fears and stuff go here) Accepted Characters: Chris McLean

Interested - this could be nice and entertaining! I'd be happy to whip up a character or two (or more if need be). I've always liked these kinds of ideas

I'll write up a CS for Chris, even though I could just link his wiki page. I have free time. May do Chef Hatchet too. Name: Chris McLean (Pronounced McLane) Age: Presumably late 20s-early 30s Appearance: Motivation: Chris's sole motivations on the show are to torment the kids as much as possible while keeping it legal, and to get his paycheck. This is to be expected, if anyone knows the guy well enough, they'd all agree. Backstory: Chris has been featured in many movies and shows- namely reality shows. He's won several awards for Best Reality Show Host at the Jemmy Awards, and continues to be incredibly popular in pop culture- something that probably continues to inflate his already massive ego. He has also been in a boyband once before, but he's done an excellent job of keeping that under wraps. Only the creepiest of stalker fans probably know about it today, since the band was a massive failure. Personality: Chris is a full-blown narcissist. He'd probably be the next best replacement for Narcissus himself in the old myth. He generally creates challenges and other things with the themes being about him. In the second season of the show, the marshamallows at the bonfire were replaced by Gilded Chris Rewards at a ceremony of the same namesake. He also enjoys torturing the kids as much as he can, always staying on the fence between breaking the law and not. He tends to underspend on challenges, which further adds to the danger for the campers, but increases his own paycheck. Chris gets incredibly upset when he is interrupted- most of the time. He tends to use interruptions to lead into his next topic of discussion in most instances- a valuable skill for reality show hosts. He may also surprise you later on with a few quirks in his personality. Misc: Chris is afraid of his show being cancelled, ergo not getting any more paychecks from it. He is also afraid of lawsuits, in situations where lawsuits are actually threatening. This is not common though, as the lengthy novel-thick contract he made all the campers sign covers almost every front.

Name: Renée Windsor Age: 16 Gender: Female Appearance: Renée looks somewhat older than she actually is, a life dedicated to maintaining and preening her appearance helping her to seem mature and much more responsible than she actually is. Her hair is golden and silky to the touch, always carefully brushed and made into one style or another. Her eyes are a sparkling emerald colour, always enhanced almost perfectly by smoky eye makeup. She wears pristine clothing, usually not practical and always slightly too revealing (not that she’d agree!). All in all she is a very attractive girl and knows it, maintaining and enhancing her natural beauty as much as she can. Motivation: What motivation other than $100,000 would you need? I suppose fame would be a close second for Renée, her desire to live a life in the lap of luxury high on her wish list. Since she has not yet found a man wealthy enough to maintain her desired lifestyle she has entered the contest with the hopes of being able to win the prize money and make her own way in the world. Backstory: Renée grew up in a small seaside town in the United Kingdom, finishing school at 15 before traveling with a few of her friends to numerous locations around the world, all paid for by her parents. It was all going perfectly until they suddenly decided their daughter wasn’t achieving anything by her own merit, before promptly ‘cutting her off’ – financially speaking. Fortunately she had always suspected this day would come, having slowly siphoned off enough money into an account of her own which she now lives off. But with the balance rapidly plummeting time is running out for her to find another way to survive. Personality: To the casual observer Renée is sweet and innocent, a perfectly polite and kind young woman, but that isn’t quite the whole story. She is actually manipulative and self-centred, caring little for anyone or anything that doesn’t fall within her interests, though still young it doesn’t look so good for Renée in terms of becoming a whole and balanced individual before it’s too late. Misc: Renée is scared of quite a few things, poverty, hard work, failure – basically anything that is contrary to the lifestyle she believes she deserves. She is determined to win the competition by any means, legitimately or not – despite knowing that she may have to do quite a few things outside of her comfort zone to even come remotely close. ------------------------------ Name: Toqir Fogg Age: 18 Gender: Male Appearance: Toqir has a somewhat unkempt appearance, his hair constantly messy and his clothing generally scruffy. He has a friendly face and a grin or smirk is never far from his features which compliments his strong jawline. He has blue eyes, brown hair and is somewhat tall and lanky, though not excessively so, his skin tone is somewhat naturally tanned giving him all in all a rather positive appearance considering the lack of effort he puts into his looks. Motivation: He original applied to be a contestant for a joke, not realising that there would actually be a chance that’d he’d be accepted. Now he just figures that he may as well try his hardest to win, the prize money of course being quite a tempting amount that would make a difference in anyone’s life. Aside from the money he also thinks that it could be quite the experience, so either way win or lose he is determined to have a good time. Backstory: Toqir is the ‘IT director’ to a small independent company, which in reality is just him and his friends attempt to make their way in the world by selling and buying advertising space to companies and individuals. He actually isn’t an expert with IT systems, but he is a little bit of a wiz and enthusiast, and anything else he needs to know he can just learn on the job (he is a product of the google generation – generally googling any question he has). Personality: Generally he is quite relaxed and laid back, always staying within his comfort zone when possible. He isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed but has quite a sense of humour and a decent work eithic – if something needs to be done then it’ll get done eventually. That being said he is a little bit of a minimalist and truly he is a little lazy, through with the right incentives he can be motivated appropriately. He has a habit of giving up when things get difficult, and avoiding serious issues with humour. Misc: Toqir is generally willing to try anything at least once, though he doesn’t appreciate being taken outside of his comfort zone – something he is sure will happy many times on the show. He has a fear of heights and a deep water, having managed to avoid these two things almost completely for most of his life. He also smokes plants.

Perfect! Thread ASAP. By the way, Pie, accepted. Both of them. Just be aware of that electronics won't be allowed on the campground in the "spirit of camping." Mr. Google Generation Guy may get some internet withdrawal.
