Characters / Total Blended Drama

Given that there is a large cast, most tropes from canon also apply to the canon characters here but the divergences from canon bring these tropes in play. Some spoilers may be unmarked.

Hosts

The hosts of various seasons of Total Drama are usually the ones running the asylum. Considering they appear in almost every episode they are bound to have a couple of tropes.

Chris McLean, the Host with the Most

• Big, Thin, Short Trio: Forms this with Chef and Dakota. He's the short.
• Creator's Favorite: Zoey is his because of all the drama she produced with all the sanity slippage.
• Everyone Has Standards:
  • Joins the cast in running to rescue Leshawna from the Escaped Psycho Killer with a Chainsaw and a Hook.
  • During the final 3 challenge after a vomit chain reaction he refuses to put the contestants through a dare that involves one kissing the other.
  • He also refuses to out someone unwillingly and actually canoes out to rescue Chef.
  • He notes that had Lauren not been voted out at the first elimination ceremony, she would have been expelled from the game anyway for her antics, noting she is way more deranged than they expected her to be from her interview. They thought she would just be a "scary girl scout" character, not a freak that actually tries to murder people.
• Hidden Depths: Reveals in Tri-Armed Triathlon that he is considered to be an expert on the Wooly Beaver, to the point he earned his master's degree after writing a thesis on the impact of the wooly beaver on the Camp Wawanakwa ecosystem.
• The Nicknamer: Gives out insulting nicknames to the cast of revenge after their run into the forest.
• Sitcom Arch-Nemesis: to Dakota, exemplified in the first episode of Revenge after her father funded the network.
  • Also fancies himself this to the cast and crew at Wipeout because of the previous season's incidents.
• Spanner in the Works: He breaks apart the radioactive marshmallow and causes the remaining cast to suddenly undergo sanity slippage. This angers his boss and Chris is forced to reveal the votes during the first proper merge challenge, undoing several alliances, revealing the true allegiances of other campers, and screwing out other campers.
• The Nicknamer: Does this during the first episode of Revenge. Not everyone is a fan.
• Those Two Guys: With Chef.
• Troll:
  • Notably during the bike challenge he tells Leshawna that she's eliminated only to force her to clean the bathrooms.
  • Episode 12 of Revenge features Chris mentioning the previous relationships in an attempt to rile up the campers.

Chef Hatchet, the Scary Cook

• Big, Thin, Short Trio: Forms this with Chris and Dakota after Dakota becomes an Intern. He's the Big.
• Combat Pragmatist: Surprisingly so. During the hide and seek challenge, when spraying Heather, after Heather points out that if he sprays her at full volume then his kitchen would get destroyed, he changes a setting on his water gun to lightly spray her.
  Heather: Touche.
• The Comically Serious: Also functions as a Cloud Cuckoolanders Minder.
• Deadpan Snarker
• Everyone Has Standards: Bad a cook as he may be, and as jerkish as he comes, he runs to warn Leshawna of the Escaped Psycho Killer with a Chainsaw and a Hook like everyone else.
• General Ripper: Fulfills the same role in canon.
• Lethal Chef: Zig Zags between this and supreme as noted by Dawn. He has cooked good food before but most of the time he doesn't care enough.
• Pet the Dog: During the Hide and Seek challenge he gives Scott immunity after he falls into a river and over a waterfall.
  • He also negotiates a deal with DJ to allow the latter to cook in the camp kitchen after the teams destroy it after Tyler's birthday.
• Those Two Guys: with Chris.
• Wholesome Crossdresser: Fond of being in dresses but doesn't like it when they chafe.

Total Blended Island Teams

• Dwindling Party: Thanks to the double elimination before the merge four Screaming Gophers are eliminated in a row, a deficit that they never regain, only having one member in the merge.
• The Hero Dies: Has some of the more heroic members of the cast but all of them are eliminated.
• Shipper on Deck: Many on the team encourage Dave and Sky to get together purely for the numbers.

The Killer Bass

• The Bad Guy Wins: More conniving in the game and as such produce the final three.
• Law of Chromatic Superiority: Thanks to a double elimination just before the merge they come in with the numbers. As a result three of the final four are members of the Killer Bass and this tribe produces the winner, runner up, and third placer.

• Achievements in Ignorance: Gets immunity during hide and seek when he gets taken down river to a mine.

Unlike in canon though, where Scott framed him of sabotaging them, everyone else knows that Tyler was the one who (accidentally) moved it, and thus B is spared from his canon elimination.

• Celebrity Is Overrated: Holds this mindset.
• Chronic Backstabbing Disorder: Votes for Lindsay in spite of the girl's alliance set up.
• Deadpan Snarker: Snarks fairly often, befitting of her personality and stereotype.
• Defrosting Ice Queen: Already starts to show shades of this when she mentions that she trusts Violet's judgement and willingly converses with Jaiden, another 'normal' person on the show.
• The Eeyore: A bit of a debbie downer, but has a small optimistic mindset.
• Hairpin Lockpick: Does this to open a door.
• Ice Queen: Comes off as one to Violet.
• Jerkass to One: Has a noted dislike of Lindsay based off of petty issue.
• Not So Above It All: After all that's been said and done with her season, she does raise her hand when Chris asks who is willing to return for another season.
• Self-Fulfilling Prophecy: Gwen believes that Lindsay is actually a very dangerous player who flies under the radar due to her Dumb Blonde personality, even thinking it is just an act at times, and that since she is well liked by everyone she has a real chance at potentially winning if she makes it too far. After Lindsay finds out Gwen betrayed her and tried to vote her off, she starts taking the game much more seriously and tries strategizing more often, not only eliminating Gwen but making it all the way to the finals and winning in a 4-3 vote against Mike.
• Ship Tease: Seems to have a small attraction to B as her conversation with Carson indicates. Chris later mentions her attraction to B when discussing the various couples throughout the season to get her riled up.

Jo, The Take No Prisoners Jockette

Placing: 7th (Revenge)

Team: Toxic Rats, Mutant Maggots

• Big Bad: She is the most openly antagonist player of the season and drives the conflict in the first 2 episodes of the merge. She is also voted as the main villain of the season during the Reunion.
• Birds of a Feather: She and Lightning actually bond over their love of football.
• Competition Freak: She and Lightning also raise their hands first when wanting to return.
• Disc-One Final Boss: She is the main antagonist for a majority of the story and masterminds a few eliminations, but is eliminated in the merge once she finally loses an individual immunity challenge with six other campers remaining.
• The Friend No One Likes: A target for several eliminations, yet scrapes by. Granted, Lightning genuinely enjoys her company and it's hinted as being true for the inverse.
• Home Nudist: Even when sharing a room with Carmen she works out naked.
• Jerk Jock
• Lady Looks Like a Dude: At least to Lightning, much to her chagrin.
• Large Ham
• The Leader: Carmen and Jaiden recognize her as the top figure in the Jock Quartet and try to stage a coup by voting for her. She becomes a Manipulative Bitch when she decides to eliminate DJ and leads Owen, Mike, and Lightning to vote for him based off of a misunderstanding.
• Leeroy Jenkins: When she and the rest of the Mutant Maggots are trying to find a mutant to use for the fashion contest, B attempts to draw up a plan to get one and assign each member of the team a role. But Jo doesn't let him finish and simply charges into a cave, forcing everyone else to follow after her.
• Manipulative Bitch: She manages to trick Lightning, Mike, and Owen into blindsiding DJ by lying to them that he broke Quentin's heart by harshly rejecting him when he asked him out.
• Samus Is a Girl: For the most part, Lightning only sees Jo as a guy, so when Jo finally clarifies that she's a girl during her elimination, Lightning has this reaction.
• The Nicknamer: The insulting kind usually towards anyone who opposes her.
• Toxic Friend Influence: Dawn can tell that she does see Lightning as a friend, but that unfortunately results in a more mean Lightning.
• The Unapologetic: Says she hates apologies when she's confronted after accusing Quentin of ogling Violet.

Lightning, the Apex Jock

Placing: 4th (Revenge)

Team: Toxic Rats

• Competition Freak: He and Jo are the first two to raise their hands when asked if they are willing to return.
• Dumb Jock: He's aware that he's not the smartest and continually mistakes Jo for a gay guy.
• Dumb Muscle: This variation of him more closely falls in line with the himbo characterization but he does have some jerkish moments still.
• Graceful Loser: Upon his elimination although he is disappointed that Mike voted against him instead of going with their plan for a tiebreaker he still leaves the game in high spirits and understands Mike's reason for voting for him, forgiving him and even voting for him to win the finale.
• Hidden Depths: Played With; he says that his mom is the team chef of a few football teams, so he knows how to cook himself. Though the dish that he makes is better than half the others, it falls short of winning due to being a bit too basic.
• Jerkass Ball: Holds this when Mike switches off of his team and he rationalizes that he can't room with him anymore. He softens up after this and attempts to make amends with Mike.
• Large Ham
• Odd Friendship: He ends up forming a genuine friendship with Mike, due to being impressed with his athletic skills. Even when Mike confesses his DID to him, Lightning doesn't think any less of him for it, promising to keep it a secret and help him.
• Pet the Dog:
  • As much as a self-centered person he is and how he feels his team would be hopeless without him, he says he can at least acknowledge where credit is due and his teammates accomplish something, like when Mike (as Svetlana) performed some cool stunts during the obstacle course.
  • He also forms a partnership with Mike on account of their bond as roommates, promising to keep Mike in the 'zone' whenever he slips out. After losing the nighttime challenge, partly due to Mike (actually Vito) and Carmen wasting time making out, Lightning voices his trust in Mike and petitions Carmen be eliminated.
  • He is also much more sportsmanlike this time around and is willing to help out his team.
  • After he wins the tiebreaker against Jaiden, he still cheers for her to finish the challenge herself and promises to keep fighting for her.
• Pyrrhic Victory: After his team loses the mutant fashion challenge, he and his love interest Jaiden end up on the chopping block with the votes tied between them. Lightning ends up winning the tiebreaker, but this of course means Jaiden is eliminated. Lightning even says in a confessional afterwards that winning always feels good for him, but this one didn't feel as good.
• Shipper on Deck: Thinks Quentin and Jo make a good couple in spite of the Incompatible Orientation, partly due to mistaking Jo for a guy. It's part of the justification he gives to vote out DJ during the merge.
• Third-Person Person
• Unsportsmanlike Gloating
• Verbal Tic: Sha-Yeah he does!
• Would Hit a Girl: He brawls with Quentin, Mike, Heather and Jo for the case to win immunity, but for the most part he's unaware that Jo is a girl.

Lindsay, The Dumb Princess

Placing: 1st (Revenge)

Team: Mutant Maggots, Toxic Rats

• Accidental Misnaming: Just like in canon she has a hard time remembering everyone's names. This is initially Exaggerated with her being almost unable to name anyone correctly at all, but she slowly starts to stop doing it as the game goes on.
• Character Exaggeration: Her misnaming people goes beyond calling people by names that start with the same letter. She calls Carson 'Bikesister', B 'Q', and Carmen 'VanGenderNonbinary' to name a couple.
• Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Has surprising proficiency in a fair bit of challenges, being one of the two to survive the nighttime scavenger hunt, and is surprisingly observant.
• Determinator: She mentions that she attended three consecutive summers of culinary classes but kept returning, but she gets kicked out every time.
• The Dog Bites Back: After she found out how Gwen betrayed her and tried to vote her off, she ends up voting for her at the next elimination. It only works because Quentin used the idol to save himself, but it still counts.
• Dumb Blonde: Deconstructed; Lindsay starts out as this just like in canon, being not very smart to the point she can't remember anyone's names, annoys others around her like Gwen with her nonsense, and is easily manipulated by others. However, she reveals that she is well aware of her status as this and wants to show others she is more than just that. She still has moments of brilliance that occasionally help her team, and because others don't think of her as a threat she is able to play under the radar without anyone noticing, like making an alliance with Mike and Lightning towards the end of the game and even managing to outsmart Violet a few times.
• Earn Your Happy Ending: Not only does she win her season, she still has her new boyfriend Tyler afterwards and the two mention going on a road trip together after the show.
• The Fashionista: Picked her outfit because it was aerodynamic and strong for the physical game.
• Hidden Depths:
  • Despite being a Dumb Blonde, she actually manages to work out several of the puzzles during the nighttime challenge that helps her team win.
  • She also manages to convince Violet, a character comparatively smarter than her, that she received no votes during an elimination when she actually did, having planned with Mike to use his vote on Violet so they could see how she reacts to it.
• In Spite of a Nail: Still winds up with and outlasts Tyler on her debut season.
• Lethal Chef: She took three Summer culinary classes but was kicked out after the first session each time. She did manage to get 4th place in the cooking challenge though, barley beating Mike and Owen.
• Lovable Alpha Bitch: A classic popular chick who aims to play the social game and for the most part it works (apart from Gwen).
• Ms. Fanservice: Regarded as the most beautiful contestant and she has a gratuitous fanservice moment where she bends low to the ground with her chest and tries to activate a metal detector.
• Red Baron: In-Universe, she realizes that Admiral Lindsay Her Hotness is a catchy name that she wants to save for future reference.
• Secret-Keeper: Manages to figure out that Mike has something more under the surface. She's not very good at keeping Paula's secret though.
• Ship Tease: With Tyler (obviously), escalates to Official Couple status but Tyler is eliminated shortly after they get together.
• Smart Ball: Holds this when rationalizing why Gwen wanted to go onto Reality Tv and when trying to keep Mike on track when planning.

Max, The Supervillain

Placing: 17th (Revenge)

Team: Mutant Maggots

• Evil Laugh: Gives one off during his interview.
• The Friend Nobody Likes
• Harmless Villain: Despite his boasting, all he really does is go around shouting how evil he is instead of actually doing anything evil, coming off more as an annoyance than a threat. Chris even refers to him as this verbatim during the Reunion.
• Large Ham
• The Load: He barely does anything to contribute to his team and just goes around shouting how "evil" he is.
• Never My Fault: His refusal to take accountability for his secrets is why he got voted out.
• Small Name, Big Ego
• We Hardly Knew Ye: Second eliminated and we know little of his home life.

Mike, The Dynamic

• Fantastic Racism: Calls Dawn a pixie in the same manner as one would say a slur.
• Grumpy Old Man
• Older Alter Ego
• Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior!

Svetlana

• Action Girl: Helps Mike over the Bouncy Agony of Double Trouble.
• Jerk Jock: Not to the extent of Jo, but uses Insane Troll Logic to deride Sky for being tied up on her own volition and uses her as a pole vault during the ice fort challenge and wrestles with Lightning over control of the Mutant Gull cannon.

Vito

• Grease Monkey: Seemingly constructed most of Mike's plane.
• Jerkass: Fights with members of the Rats just so he can get the glory.

Manitoba Smith

• Ace Pilot: During the flying challenge he is the one piloting Mike's plane when it gets off of the ground.

• Lesser of Two Evils: Him and Svetlana are who Mike describes as the least disruptive.

Owen, Mr. Happy go lucky

Placing: 5th (Revenge)

Team: Mutant Maggots

• Acrofatic: During a challenge, he winds up in a tree with Mike. The two talk about how Owen is athletic despite his weight.
• Adaptational Sexuality: He realizes he's bisexual rather than remaining an Ambiguously Bi character during a conversation with Quentin.
• Animal Motifs: Dawn compares him to a bear.
• Big Fun
• Big Eater: One confessional has him notably light up when a Bagel falls out of his neck folds.
• Birds of a Feather: His friendship with Violet winds up becoming this because both are bisexual.
• Bi-Wildered: The leadup to his coming out scene has Owen mention that he finds a lot of people attractive but is only aware of liking guys OR girls, not both.

• Cannot Keep a Secret: During the second episode he somehow confesses all five of his secrets that Chris planned to reveal. In the confessional immediately after he talks about some more Noodle Incidents.
• Dumb Blonde: Lacks spatial awareness at points.
• Gasshole: But remains apologetic about it. Uses this as Fartillery in the flying challenge.
• Huge Guy, Tiny Girl: The huge guy to Violet's tiny girl, a platonic example.
• The Load: He performed the worst during the obstacle course, despite being given the first part of the course that was one of the easiest. This poor performance was ultimately the reason his team decided to vote him off first, because his performance cost them the challenge and could cost them any future physical challenges if he stays.
• Nice Guy: Doesn't take his elimination personally and his team gives him their normal marshmallows upon his elimination.
• The Pollyanna: His label this season is the happy-go-lucky and he has a contagiously happy attitude.
• Spanner in the Works: Fractures a 2:1 Rat Majority by his presence.

Sierra, The Crazed Superfan

Placing: 14th (Revenge)

Team: Mutant Maggots

• Ascended Fangirl: Many of the other contestants qualify this season, but she takes the cake because she loves every single character from the first season.
• Early-Bird Cameo: Her first acknowledgement comes from the first season's reunion episode.
• Huge Schoolgirl: Tallest girl of the cast. As per word of god she's the third tallest contestant on the season, behind Quentin and DJ.
• Loony Fan
• Malicious Misnaming: Calls Owen the fatso.
• Most Fanfic Writers Are Girls: She definitely is, and she's written lewd fanfictions about all the cast combinations.
• One of Us: Is aware of the Tvtropes page in-universe and demands for Carson to get a Mr. Fanservice entry.
• Stalker with a Crush: Is this to Carson, especially after Ryan makes a quick cameo.
• Stalker without a Crush: Seems to have dug up some dirt on her fellow contestants in the pre season.

Staci, The Chatterbox

Placing: 18th (Revenge)

Team: Toxic Rats

• Abled in the Adaptation: A downplayed example, but upon her elimination she avoids touching the Marshmallow of Toxic Loserdom, and thus avoids having Ominous Hair Loss from the radiation.
• Character Exaggeration: While still prone to lying, her lies often include too many greats for it to be a plausible truth.
• Compulsive Liar: Most of what comes out of her mouth is a lie.
• Fan of the Underdog: Favorite camper from the previous season was Cameron.
• In Spite of a Nail: She is still the first contestant eliminated in Revenge due to her annoying everyone with her lies.

Tyler, The Clumsy Jock

Revenge of the Island fan characters

Left to Right ^note  Carmen, Jaiden, Quentin, Carson, Violet

Carmen, The Gold Digger

Placing: 15th (Revenge)

Team: Toxic Rats, Lethal Costumers

• Ambiguously Bi: Flirts openly with the boys on her team but appreciates Violet's butt and calls Jaiden beautiful.
• All Girls Want Bad Boys: She finds Mike attractive in his Vito personality.
• Big Bad Wannabe: Seems to want to control and manipulate others living in their cabin. Unfortunately for her, nobody really takes her seriously as a threat, and she is voted out in the pre-merge before her idea for an "all girls alliance" in the post-merge can get off the ground.
  Stew Dissent in the other team. Total Drama Villany 101. Such a good strategy.
• Celebrity Resemblance: Noted as looking like "Blaineley from that one show" in Quentin's interview and Lindsay says she looks like "Mildew".
• Disc-One Final Boss: Causes problems in team harmony and sets herself up to be a villain of the season but is the 5th person voted out.
• Do Not Go Gentle: After seeing that Quentin and DJ reneged on their deal she decides to play what she thinks is an idol and send Jo home with her and Jaiden's vote. The idol, however, is a fake, and Carmen goes home anyway.
• Eating the Eye Candy: Openly does this to the guys on her team but when Vito makes an appearance she comments on how attractive Mike suddenly is.
• Even Evil Has Standards: She says she is many things, but a homewrecker is not one of them, refusing to flirt with someone who is already taken.
• Gold Digger
• Ignore the Fanservice: Rather flirtatious and seems to think that she's garnered the attention of several male competitors but in reality they are ignoring her. Ironically, Lightning petitions that she should be eliminated for the opposite reason, since she wasted time making out with Mike (actually Vito) during a challenge and he reasons she must have distracted him with her "Sha-Boobies", and if she can do that to him than she can potentially do it to any other guy on the team.
• The Tease
• Those Two Girls: Has this dynamic with Jaiden and is in the making of one with Violet before she goes home as well.
• Sir Swears Alot: A gender flipped version who uses a lot of foreign cusswords.
  • "Claro que FUCKING SI!"
• Spicy Latina: Specifically from Spain.
• The Vamp: Appears to be her strategies during the pre interviews.
• Woman Scorned: Her interview has her be rather bitter towards her ex, Don.

Carson, The Athletic Nerd

Placing: 10th (Revenge)

Team: Mutant Maggots, Screaming Gaffers

• Clark Kent Outfit: Apparently has an impressive set of toned abs that Sierra loves to point out.
• Disc-One Final Boss: Contributes to the cannibalization of his own team and cuts off his allies at a whim but is the final pre-merge boot.
• Early-Bird Cameo: Asks a question during the reunion episode.
• Endearingly Dorky: Sierra thinks so.
• Manipulative Bastard: Gets Lindsay and Tyler to vote for Sierra when Tyler is the main target.
• Mr. Fanservice: Or at least Sierra thinks so, who outright breaks the In-Universe fourth wall demanding this entry be added for him.
• Geek Physiques: The skinny variety, but is a track and field nerd so he has athleticism on his side.
• Genre Savvy: Watches a lot of reality tv.
• Legacy Character: Ryan's best friend from their hometown.
• Love-Interest Traitor: Is Sierra's love interest and helps orchestrate her blindside.
• My Greatest Second Chance: And to make sure he makes the most of it, he plans to learn from his lessons from his first time around.
• Otaku: It's in the name
• Unwitting Instigator of Doom: Finds a peculiarly shaped rock during the ice fort challenge and hides it in the outhouse confessional, which Carmen finds and uses to try to sway DJ and Quentin to her side. When it ultimately fails Carson can accurately claim that Carmen is one of his (unwitting) victims.
  Carson: IT WAS A FAKE?!
• Shirtless Scene: Gets one in the main male bathroom in the rich cabin, something Sierra eagerly points out.

Jaiden, The Optimist

Placing: 13th (Revenge)

Team: Toxic Rats, Screaming Gaffers

• Celebrity Survivor: A small version but she mentions running a successful blog.
• Eating the Eye Candy: looks at Lightning rather appreciatively.
• Graceful Loser: Despite losing the tiebreaker to Lightning, she says she is glad she made a friend like him and hopes that he and Gwen make it to the end.
• Keet
• My Greatest Second Chance: Her goal this time around, also has the goal of standing out more from the crowd.
• Nice Girl: Gets along nicely with everyone to the point of Playing Both Sides with the rats.
• The Pollyanna: She sees the best in people and sees something good in the preseason.
• Ship Tease: Has this with Lightning.

Quentin, The Military Brat

Placing: 6th (Revenge)

Team: Toxic Rats

• Advantage Ball: Winds up finding the Hidden Chris Idol and uses it to stay another round to eliminate Gwen.
• All Gays Love Theater: One of his secrets revealed had something to do with the Major General Song which has to deal with this.
• Break the Haughty: Part of his spiral into being a Sore Loser by the time he's eliminated is him becoming less stoic and more emotionally driven.
• But Not Too Foreign: As per Word of God, he's 1/8th Korean.
• The Comically Serious
• Distracted by the Sexy: Happens during episode 6's aquatic challenge when he drolls on and on about how Mike is actually rather toned, how Lightning is pretty well built, and compliments DJ on his physique.
  Quentin: What was I saying again?
• Distressed Dude: Does NOT do well in dwindling party situations and is often the first one captured in those situations. DJ also has to save him when Fang abducts him during the challenge.
• Gay Best Friend: Not by mannerism but Lightning singles him out as Lindsay's.
• Irrational Hatred: Quentin finds Owen returning in the merge to be massively "unfair", since he already lost and was voted out so early, and spends most of his time plotting to vote him out again. This ultimately gets him eliminated when everyone else gets tired of him saying he wants Owen out, and they choose to eliminate him instead.
• It's Personal: He holds a grudge against Jo during the merge for getting DJ, who was his friend and (one-sided) crush eliminated. So, as soon as Jo is vulnerable during the merge Quentin gets his allies to vote her out, with others acknowledging this is more of a personal vote than a strategic one.
• Military Brat
• Not So Above It All: Notably excited when Chris reveals the mutant gull cannon and only gives up his chance of using it to keep the peace between Jo and Lightning.
• Not So Stoic: After the fallout from being rejected by DJ causes DJ to be eliminated he's shouting loudly and has to be consoled by DJ and leaves tears in DJ's shirt for the final goodbye.
• Sore Loser: He throws a fit at everyone upon his elimination for choosing to keep Owen over him. He bitterly tells Owen he isn't voting for him if he makes it to the finale and calls everyone "fuckfaces" before leaving.
• The Starscream: Beginning in episode 6 he tries to supplant Jo as the leader by taking charge in a lot of the decisions, using the Drill Sergeant Nasty skills he learned from his father. Jo ends up being swapped to the Maggots by the end, which leaves Quentin unopposed as the new leader of the Rats.
• The Stoic
• Straight Gay: He shows minimal signs of any stereotypical gay attributes, with him actually needing to admit to others that he is gay when they accuse him of flirting with some of the girls.
• Straight Man: Ironically enough.
• Those Two Guys: DJ is his number one.
• Token Minority: The only American in Revenge of the Island, and even then he's only half american. ^note  Island featured Justin and Scarlett as having United States citizenship while Pahkitew Island featured Sugar and Alexis being from the US
• Unwitting Instigator of Doom: After the first merge challenge, he asks out DJ on a date, hoping they can start a relationship. DJ politely declines, explaining he doesn't swing that way and explains he still wants to be friends but just in a "bro" way rather than a romantic way. Quentin accepts this, but while trying to deal with his heartbreak he accidentally gives an opening for Jo to blindside DJ, due to her lying to everyone that DJ harshly rejected Quentin and broke his heart.
• Would Hit a Girl: Winds up brawling with Jo and Heather as well as Lightning and Mike for the case to win immunity, though the exact specifics of the fight aren't given.

Violet, The Gamer Girl

Placing: 3rd (Revenge)

Team: Mutant Maggots

• All-Loving Hero: Tries to get along with everyone in the house, even those on the other teams, citing that everyone has something worth providing.
• Conversational Troping

• Gamer Chick
• Genre Savvy: She is well versed in video game strategies, and uses her knowledge of them to categorize the other contestants and how to win them over better.
• Good Is Not Soft: She is pretty friendly overall, but when she realizes that Tyler and Lindsay have become a couple, she agrees that one of them needs to be voted off, agreeing with what Heather said in the previous season that being boyfriend/girlfriend is just another term for an unbreakable alliance. She's also unhesitant in voting out the only other maggot when prompted to.
• Huge Guy, Tiny Girl: Tiny girl to Owen's huge guy.
• I Fight for the Strongest Side!: Flips on the original Maggots by voting out Dawn to secure her place with Jo and the Rats and to ensure her girl's alliance gets off the ground. She also votes out Jo when the time is right.
• I'm Not Here to Make Friends: Downplayed; she says in a confessional that she didn't join the competition to make friends, but ended up making them along the way as part of her strategy. However, she still prioritizes the money first and is willing to break a few promises to get ahead, like breaking her promise not to vote for Jo.
• Last of Her Kind: The only contestant to remain on the Mutant Maggots through the swap and make it to the merge.
• Nice Girl: Wants to weaponize this at first.
• One of Us: At the very least is aware of the common video game and reality tv tropes, namedropping Ice Queen and Chekhov's Arsenal tropes.
• Psychotic Smirk: She has an uncharacteristic evil grin at the thought of getting to use the mutant gull cannon to shoot the other team.
• Straw Feminist: Downplayed but she wants to have an all girl's alliance to get to the end, as of now she wants to include Jo, Gwen, and Lindsay. But she eliminated Dawn.
• Would Hurt a Child: Once punched a little girl just to get a Jigglypuff plush.

Pahkitew Island Teams

Tropes Applying to Both Teams

• Bilingual Bonus: Subverted Trope. Their names were originally supposed to be The Soaring Eagles and the Ferocious Tigers like in canon but the teams were stuck with their canon wrong names.
• Throw It In!: Both teams were supposed to have different names, but thanks to mistranslations and a general lack of desire to change anything on Chris' end, they are stuck with this name.

• Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: When treated with a message from home from one of his older brothers, Carlos, the elder Burromuerto mentions that even Jose is rooting for him and Alejandro is touched by this gesture.
• The Bad Guy Wins: Alejandro's cunningness is well on display come the merge, and the jury rewards him for this in a 6-3 vote for the million dollars.
• Even Evil Has Standards: He is noticeably disturbed when Geoff asks him during a challenge if he thinks that Todd is dead since they haven't seen him since he flew off. Alejandro assures him he should be fine since nobody actually wants anyone to die on the show.
• Latin Lover: Invokes this with his natural charisma.
• Mr. Fanservice: Immediately attracts Amy, Alexis, and Bridgette when on the plane in the opening episode. He's also given several scenes where the prose describes his attributes in a nice light.

Placing: 12th (Pahkitew)

Team: Floating Salmon (Initial Team and First Swap), Confused Bear (Second Swap)

• Alpha Bitch: Head of the cheerleading team and not really a nice person.
• Break the Haughty: On top of her usual bad attitude, Amy is confident she is safe and will make it to the merge thanks to the "immunity idol" she found. During the final pre-merge elimination ceremony, she discovers that her "idol" is fake and is unanimously voted off by her entire team. To further rub salt in, Dakota points out that statistically speaking her sister Sammy did better than her.
• Everyone Has Standards: Blows up on Ezekiel with a scathing "The Reason You Suck" Speech because of his sexism.
  Amy: Homeschooled alpha male wannabe socially inept worse than Samey blowhard who is stuck in the backwater of a swamp that's been covered in irradiated toxic waste? Yeah [...] I'm not going to let some chauvinistic, paunchy, pale, vampire living in the shadow of the cool kids when any popular kid of the correct caliber would dump them in the garbage tell me otherwise.
• Last of Her Kind: The last member of the contestants who debuted on Pahkitew Island to be eliminated on Blended Pahkitew Island.

• Hidden Depths: Pretty quickly cues into the alliance Amy and Alejandro set up together.
• Joisey: She's loud and tan just like in canon.
• My Greatest Second Chance: Her main goal in the second season is to make it further. This ends up subverted when she is the first voted off her team and comes in just one place above last, but she at least made a friend in Raihan.

Team: Floating Salmon (Initial Team and Second Swap), Confused Bears (First Swap)

Team: Confused Bears (Initial Team and Second Swap), Floating Salmon (First Swap)

• Be Careful What You Wish For: Going into the merge, he gets frustrated over how he has been to all but one elimination ceremony and rants about his lack of victories in challenges.

But it turns out he just needed to get some frustrations off his chest.

• "The Reason You Suck" Speech: She gives one to Roman after she is eliminated.

Ezekiel, The Homeschooled

He doesn't even vote for him when it becomes clear he is going to be the one leaving.
