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. ----------------- Name: Delilah Green Age: 18 Gender: Female Appearance: Delilah is fairly short, though not excessively so she is generally one of the shorter people in any room. Her left eye is a light blue with her right being brown, having what’s known as complete heterochromia. Her naturally straight hair is a gently amber colour, usually tied back into a ponytail for practicality. She has often been told she has a very ‘cute’ face with an almost innocent look always spread across her features. Motivation: Delilah wants to come out of her shell a little more, as well as possibly learning to be a bit more assertive and impulsive. The prize money would be great too, but she doesn’t really think she’ll actually win – not that it will stop her from trying as hard as she can. She also hopes to make some friends whilst she is there. Backstory: What is there to say, she grew up in a small rural community as a part of a small family. Both her parents are quiet and gentle people and she has picked up many of their traits. Finishing school she stayed at home to help around the farm being an animal lover through and through, though her parents loved this they often spoke to her about spreading her wings and doing something big that she really cares about. It was hard to tell them that she was perfectly happy where she was, but over time has come to understand what they mean and is now starting to try new things and expand her circle. Personality: Soft, gentle and a generally calm and very caring person Delilah is a little withdrawn and definitely shy at times. Generally happy and very calm as well as a bit of a pushover she will go with whatever the majority of people want most of the time. That being said she is trying to change and become more independent and bold, but it has yet to be seen if she will be able to go through with her plans. Misc: Lover of animals, music and gardening amongst other things. Generally anything tied to farm living she is more than happy to do. She has quite a few fears that have yet to be discovered seeing as she has lived a very sheltered life, though already quite a few things get to her. Things like uncomfortable situations or horrible people mostly, but surely Chris McLean will help her find out just what else she is really scared of.
