The adrenalin rush she may or may not get is another reason. [b]Backstory:[/b] For the most part Eil was a normal girl, the differences being that she was pulled out of school and home schooled from the age of ten. Instead of proper schooling it was just letting her run wild, learning what she wanted to learn. This mostly included running lose and causing havoc, tagging random signs also turned into a hobby. Now that she’s sixteen her parents want to send her off to a pretty, prim, girlish, all-girls boarding school. The sort of place Eil would never go. So she signed up for the show as a way out. She had been told she had to buckle down and do something, so she did [i]something[/i], just not what her parents were hoping. [b]Personality:[/b] Eil is a wild girl who always preferred being outdoors. Except when she had a good book and then she wanted to be where no one can find her. Wild and carefree, Eil has a slight anger management problem, but for the most part she is really to kind for her own good. Her mood swings are sudden and shocking, and very obvious as well. She is not an idiot; she just can’t be bothered to learn normal things. Also a bit of a daredevil adrenalin junkie, she will take unnecessary risks just for the sake of it. [b]Misc:[/b] She is claustrophobic and any feeling of being trapped makes her go berserk, lashing out at anything nearby, especially if it will get her out. She is also scared of most spiders and doesn’t like touching some bugs, though she is fine with most. Ants disgust her with the way they swarm, and the smell of oranges or similar fruits makes her want to puke. She both loves and is a little afraid of the dark, but if there is even a tiny bit of light she is fine, blindfolds however don’t affect her the same way. To counter her fear of dark she wears a glow in the dark pendant for cloudy nights, or being inside. Her only really calm state is when she sing to the stars, however she doesn’t really like others hearing her sing to often.

Nada. Nicht. Zip. Zill. (You get the picture) Not even for the money. Sure it’d be great if he did win, that money would keep him happy for a long time, but really? Moneys not all that great. At least, not in Sam’s opinion. [b]Backstory:[/b] Sam, having little motivation in his life for anything, grew up being dragged off to things by his dad, in an attempt to interest him in something. Other than books. He has been dragged to sport games, to music concerts, workshops, rallies, and recitals. The latest, and most drastic thing his dad has done is sign him up for this reality show thing. Sam has only a vague idea of what he’s getting into, and is in for a pretty nasty surprise. [b]Personality:[/b] Sam is a fairly simple person, he doesn’t want much from life Quite unmotivated most of the time, he will stick to things through and through, [i]if[/i] they perk his interest. Books are one thing Sam likes, that and a bit of good music. Good food is also another thing. Quiet for the most part, Sam can be quite smart but nearly never shows it. He actually quite enjoys many of the things he gets dragged to, (except for the often-present loud noises,) but that doesn’t motivate him to participate in anything else. [b]Misc:[/b] Loud, excessive, or constant noises, being left behind, huge crowds, large amounts of water; these are things Sam fears. Bad food is even worse. However if Sam can find a reason to be bothered with anything he will stick it out; through thick, thin, and dog poop (if he has to).
