Total Drama Letterz

A pair of Total Drama Island fanfics by cragmiteblaster that is obviously inspired by Frank15's Total Drama Alphabet.

The first story, Total Drama Letterz, takes place roughly a year after the Total Drama Island and subsequent seasons never happened. Twenty six new characters are introduced, each with a different letter name, such as creepy Uzuri, sweet innocent Jimmy, bad guy Wallace and multi talented chef Gary among others. In the end one of them will win one million dollars.

Unlike the real show all of the characters get roughly equal screen time so predicting a winner is harder. While the main plot is fairly common there are a number of subplots such as Lavender trying to prove cheerleaders are not dumb, Xaria's troubled past and couples forming.

The second story, Total Drama Letterama, is hosted by Spider and Quana and features ANOTHER twenty sicx characters. The sequal is where the story 'really gets serious. Several characters from the first story are revealed to have sad backstories (such as Tabitha) and the story has an overall darker tone. Every character from the first story reappears and each of the new twenty six has something new to offer. The story is currently in progress.

 * The Bully: Quarla.
 * Cloudcuckoolander: Opal is the most obvious example, but Vay Vay also qualifies.
