History Characters / Endurance

* TeensAreShort

* TeethClenchedTeamwork: It seemed they might have ended up as this at first as Sarah stated before the partner challenge that she did not want Reece as a partner as she thought he would likely want someone like Linda as a partner. It was thus unexpected that Reece (despite having every girl except Linda to choose as a potential partner) pick Sarah. Despite this, they won the first endurance mission and tended to be one of the better performing teams in the seasons. Later in the game, Sarah did lament along with Nicole and Linda that the guys tended to hang out with Bryanah more then them but otherwise never seemed to get into any fights with Reece.

* LovedByAll: Despite their mission success, Green generally lacked enemies with Isaac in particularly bonding with members from several times. Notably, they were spared Temple after losing the superteam mission even though Yellow had not won a team mission at the point. Purple did later give them a samadhi in the final 3 but only because they would not be able to save each other in the next mission.

* HatedByAll: Nobody wanted Garret for a partner. He was not well liked by the guys either. Some even planned to pair him with Taylor so that they both potentially be eliminated in one go. He ended up with Anna though as Ike apparently told Connor he wanted Taylor.
* OddCouple: Garret made it very clear that he wanted Cealey as his partner even though she wanted to be with Alex (and vice versa). When he ended up with Anna, he didn't seem interested in communicating with her.

* CantCatchUp: After failing to complete a single lap due to constantly falling in the water (every other female contestant was able to complete one) and losing energy with every fall, Martina decided to quit during the challenge. Granted, she would have needed to complete 5 laps before 2 of the other girls in order to stay. Adrian and Rafael also struggled to the point that they failed to complete a lap which allowed Cameron and Ike (who also really struggled in the mission) to complete their laps with a massive lead. Stefanie was slightly downplayed as it was relatively close race between her and Anna for the final spot.

* PetTheDog: Despite the fact his alliance was targeting Yellow, along with Blue, Max made an attempt to convince Purple to send Green instead of Yellow after Purple won Superboats as he didn't think it was fair that Yellow would have to go to temple twice in a row (though the fact he asked Dakota this in Cealey's presence might have been a reason why Green sent Orange to temple after winning the next temple mission).

* BreakTheHaughty: Purple in the finale. While they were the dominant throughout the season in terms of mission success, as well as having a role in creating much of the dramatic moments, their closest friends managed to take the lead in the final mission and then defeated them to become the champions.

* HonorVersusReason: Due to his partner issues with Nicole, Demian encourage the other teams to make decisions that could have been costly to orange. Specifically:

* [[ChickMagnet Dude Magnet]]: While the P.R.O.G alliance sought to eliminate Yellow for most the season, by the final 4, the remaining guys had started to hang out with Bryanah more than their own partners, to annoyance of Nicole, Lindi and Sarah.
* FromBadToWorse: Occurred during the final 5. First Gray won ''Pipeline'' which allowed them to take Yellow's 2 pyramid pieces. Then Gray won 'I'm Pulling for You'' and gave the samadhi to Yellow which prevented them from competing in the following temple mission. Their only consistent allies, Brown, lost a teammate and Purple ultimately won the challenge and picked both to go to temple. Yellow did bounce back in the final 4 as they acquired Brown's piece and won another by winning the next endurance mission. They even forged an alliance with their main rivals, Orange, which got them to the final 3.

* ManipulativeBastard: Despite Bryannah's crush on him, Chris wanted Lindi as his partner. Rather than being honest with Bryannah, he and Lindi plans on making it look like he wanted Bryannah, only for Lindi to steal him away. Notably, Demian notes that Chris could have taken the number 1 ball which would have allowed him to pick who he wanted but he seemed to let Demian have it. Chris and Lindi's plan worked perfectly as Lindi got the number 2 ball and used it to bump Bryannah for Chris (and ending up pairing her with Monroe). Even though Bryannah wouldn't like Lindi, they assumed her crush on Chris would keep them safe from Yellow. This may have saved Gray when Yellow won the first temple mission. Yellow would target Gray later in the game though this was after Gray took their pieces and gave them a samadi.

* TeethClenchedTeamwork: It seemed they might have ended up as this at first as Sarah stated before the partner challenge that she did not want Reece as a partner as she thought he would likely want someone like Linda as a partner. It was thus unexpected that Reece (despite having every girl except Linda to choose as a potential partner) picked Sarah. Despite this, they won the first endurance mission and tended to be one of the better performing teams in the seasons. Later in the game, Sarah did lament along with Nicole and Linda that the guys tended to hang out with bryanah more then them but otherwise never seemed to get into any fights with Reece.

** Rachel seemed to imply that Red was quite close with Purple (whom they stated were the most trustworthy and were the recipient of their piece, the only time an eliminated team voluntarily gave their pieces to the team that sent them to temple) though this seemed to be one sided as Purple did not seem to raise objections to sending Red to temple in order to save Orange following the superteam mission.

* TheLoad: When deciding Superteams, Yellow didn't pick them because they were relatively weaker than the other teams.

* DudeMagnet: Like Ashley most of the guys wanted Sabrina as her partner.

* ImNotHereToMakeFriends: Sabrina, and she even voiced it in one episode.

** Rachel seemed to imply that Red was quite close with Purple (whom they stated were the most trustworthy and were the recipient of their piece) though this seemed to be one sided as Purple did not seem to raise objections to sending Red to temple in order to save Orange following the superteam mission.

* GracefulLosers: Even though Purple sent them to temple twice, resulting in their elimination the second time, Shae wrote in his team's elimination letter that he had no hard feelings towards Jonathan.

* TeamClenchedTeamwork: Seemed to be this at first but then averted. Daniela originally wanted Michael to be her partner and was a bit upset when Chris paired her with Jonathan instead (he was not aware of who Daniela wanted) and they did not do particularly well ''Blocked''. They did however quickly rebound when they once ''Raft Pull'' and, with the exception of ''Waterworks'', typically performed quite well, winning 4 missions throughout the season. While they did have a bit of debate after they won ''Cubed'' on who to send to temple, they never shown actually fighting (especially compared to Green by the later point of the season).

The team was first formed when Ashley caught the Blue ball, and partnered them up according to the List. From the outset, the Blue Team was the strongest team on the island: they managed to win the first two Temple Missions in a row. They also established an earlier alliance: the Brotherhood, along with Green, Purple, and Orange. However, they would immediately break off when the Blue Team gave the first Samadhi to Orange, and sent Green up to the Temple of Fate, along with Gray, with the intent that Green would be eliminated. When Green returned, both teams turned against Blue for their supposed betrayal. Instead, largely due to Aaron's crush on Sabrina (which she exploited) and his friendship with Christian, instead allied with Yellow and Red.

* TheSocialExpert: Ashley. This came in handy in the Squeeze Play mission since it was based around what everyone guess got the most the popular response toward survey questions and Ashley was the only one to get every single question correct, thus winning the mission for the team. Downplayed though in ''Waterlogged'' where she was outspoken about wanting Blue's pieces as this actually caused Sabrina to consider targeting Red as she wanted to keep Blue for protection. Fortunately for her, Jon would not entertain the idea of giving the samadhi to Red while Blue choose not to target Red despite Ashley's remarks(likely due to Aaron's friendship with Christian).

When Max caught the Green ball, he noted that Trevor pointed to Lana, and paired them up, breaking up the list. Not much later, the two partners would clash with each other; their lack of teamwork showing in "Tilt" and "Knotted Up". While Trevor was part of the Brotherhood alliance with Skyler, Brandon and Aaron, the latter ended up finding Trevor to be annoying This prompted the Blue Team to send them up to Temple along with Gray, because the latter was stronger and would take them out. Much to everyone's surprise, the Green Team came back, leading to rivalry between Green and Blue. Green was sometimes on friendly terms with Yellow and Red.

* BadassDecay: Zigzagged. They won the first two temple missions and nearly won ''Fireball'', making them easily one of the strongest teams early in the season. However, they started getting overshadowed by Brown and Purple in missions, with their performance in ''Face to FAce'' being particularly embarrassing in how quickly they lost the mission. However, after a fairly lengthy losing streak, they won ''Plank Maze'' which ensured they got to the final 3. While they did have to go to temple after losing ''Pathfinder'', they beat Orange who had won their two previous temple trips. They ended up tying with Brown in the final piece mission and ending up having the longest final game in the history of show despite Brown having a two piece lead (even if Brown still ultimately won).

** Vanetta's friendship with Nicole indirectly led to the elimination of Green as, in ''Squaring Off'': during one of Brown's turns after the Yellow-Green-Brown alliance had been giving control where Vanetta convinced a reluctant Tom to let Orange have a turn again even though Orange and the other teams were aiming to get Yellow, Green and themselves out. Orange did not give Brown another turn and the Yellow-Green-Brown alliance were the first three teams out. Orange, who won when Gray eliminated themselves, spared Brown but sent Yellow and Green to temple, eliminating a consistent ally.
