Character Type/Restrictions:

  • ONE…………………… Naomi Bell, 24-26, she/her, any race, the best and she knows it, but she’d never say it. Some people think she’s fake, but she’s actually just annoyingly perfect. Plays the PR game like a pro.
  • TWO……………………Val Davis, 30-32, she/her, any race, once the best, resentful she isn’t anymore. Jaded. Bitter. Addicted to this. Didn’t have a lot of opportunity growing up, rough around the edges as self defense.
  • THREE………………… Trish Peck, 26-28, she/her, any race, incredibly intelligent in a way that’s self destructive. Has gone too far in her love of this. Culty. Superiority complex. Losing herself to an ideology in a way that’s scary.
  • FOUR…………………... Carol Martin, 50-60, she/her, any race, has been doing this for decades. She met her husband here! “Sweet” boomer who is actually so judgmental. Thinks her way of life is the way of life. In an instant, her charm can flip into cruelty.
  • FIVE…………………… Paige Long, 20, she/her, any race, first time and she’s so thrilled to be here! Naive and sweet and maybe kind of annoying to the other, more seasoned competitors. Naomi fangirl.
  • THE HOST………………30s-40s, he/him, an Andy Cohen type, master of ceremonies, probably very gay. The face of the organization. Big and bold and so happy to be here, but more importantly, so happy you’re here. Sneakily sinister.
