Nigel

Nigel Roberts, labelled The Gameplay Hyperboy, was a contestant in the Total Dragon series. He competed in Total Dragon Island, Total Dragon Comeback to the Island, Total Dragon Timewarped (which was later cancelled), Total Dragon Top of the World and was going to be competing in Total Dragon Livin' It Up before the seasons' cancellation. He was played by crashfan500.
==Nigel Roberts==
Nigel has always been known as ‘The Silent One’. Even when he was first born, not one loud sound emerged from him. For the first 4 years of his life, Nigel was mute, he didn’t say anything. He would just happily sit down and do whatever he wanted to do. 
When he was 6, he went shopping with his mother until he got distracted for a split second by a strange, black figure in the shadows. When he looked away, he realized his mother was gone. Desperate to find her, Nigel searched all around the city only to be interrupted by the sound of a gunshot. He ran straight towards where the sound came from only then to see his mother dead on the floor. Nigel was absolutely devestated.
When Nigel was 9, his father married another woman. She looked nice on the outside, but inside laid an evil witch. His step mother forced him and his younger brother to do all the housework.
During this time, Nigel would usually lock himself in his room to try and prevent himself from doing all the work, however, this never seemed to work. Instead, his step mother would somehow break the lock, march in, and abuse him. 
Another 2 years passed and Nigel had finally had enough, causing him to run away from his home, in a desperate attempt to escape from his step mother, and vowed he would never return.
Eventually, after a long and gruelling road, Nigel managed to successfully escape. He is currently living in an apartment, along with his girlfriend Zara, who had decided to move in with him. This gave Nigel a chance to forget about the past and start over, which he has wanted to do for years.
Personality
Overall, Nigel is a very laid back guy.
He is very reclusive, and not too much of a talker. He prefers to keep to himself, although he has made a few exceptions. Other contestants, including Zara, have said that Nigel has a mysterious aura about him, due to him being so secretive about himself. When he does open up, he is kind and respectful, and tends to get along with everyone, although he can, occasionally, be a little restless and short tempered, especially when he's frustrated.
Nigel is very supportive of his friends, and his loyalty knows no bounds. He tends to care more about his friends and allies, even if it puts him at risk of losing the game. He has also shown to be protective of Zara, and often labels her as his top priority.
Nigel does sometimes have a habit, of going into hyperactive tangents. Although some people perhaps claim that this is because he hangs around Zara too much, Nigel claims that this has always been a thing, but he never felt comfortable expressing it.
It is extremely evident, however, that Nigel does suffer from severe anxiety. He frequently expresses his lack of confidence, mainly through stating that he never feels safe when he is up for elimination, which many people have picked up on. Nigel often uses his hyperactivity as a coping mechanism, to try and deflect his attention from whatever is triggering his anxiety.
Nigel on Total Dragon
===Total Dragon Island===
Nigel was placed on Team Bandicoot along with: Cedric, Simon, Jasmin, Danica, Penelope, Sam and Julianna.
He was pretty much a stand-alone guy and did his own thing. Nigel didn't really have any contact at all with his fellow teammates, he tended to keep to himself. Nigel was eliminated quite early as he accidentally forgot to inform his teammates his user was on vacation.
===Total Dragon Comeback To The Island===
Nigel returned this season after a 2 season absense and participated on Team Fearsome Sixxsome alongside: Jasmin, Sonny, Gary, Lizza and Tammy.
When they were sent to the first elimination, Nigel was actually certain he was going to be the first to go. However, to his great surprise, he wasn't. Nigel consistantly placed average amongst his teammates throughout the season. But he was also still very reserved and made no contact, which ultimately lead to his downfall, despite performing well in the challenges.
===Total Dragon Timewarped===
Even though this was the un-official season, this season was probably by a large margin, Nigel's best. During Timewarped, Nigel was on top form from the very start. He was placed on Team Reverse along with: Zara, Albert, Cedric, Tammy, Annella, Sonny, Xander and Kelsie when she joined later on.
At the very beginning of the season, Nigel developed a friendship with Albert, making him Nigel's first official friend in Total Dragon. In fact, Nigel developed friendships with almost everyone competing in the season and more, after Albert and Zara helped him break out of his shell.
This season, Nigel was desperate to prove himself to be exceptionally good player as he felt people were under-estimating him. Before Nigel was eliminated, he placed 1st in 5/9 challenges for simply being the fastest.
During this time, he and Zara had started to bond with each other. This escalated significantly after Nigel stood up for Zara against Xander. It was a largely unexpected statement, but it proved that Nigel cared immensely for Zara, seemingly willing to take a bullet for her, with his selfless act. This earned Nigel the respect of many of the contestants, and Zara was incredibly grateful for what he did, solidifying their friendship.
After what happened with Xander, Nigel and Zara continued to grow close behind the scenes. Their friendship rapidly became so strong, it eventually blossomed into a romance, thanks to a little encouragement from Albert, as it became obvious to him that the pair had developed a crush on each other. However, Nigel was eliminated the very next episode Team Reverse were up for elimination, so their relationship wasn't really made official, despite their confessionals largely hinting at it.
===Total Dragon Top Of The World===
In Top Of The World, Nigel was placed on Team Destruction along with: Albert, Cedric, Tammy, Annella, Zap, Hilda, Makato and Marco. 
Nigel’s personality had transformed completely and it was almost like he was a new person. He became a lot more open, and was no longer a silent observer. In this season, Nigel was very ambitious and would always set himself small targets. He continued his stride as a strong player as it was part of his new-found ambitiousness, and once he climbed his way into the safe-zone, he was never to be bumped back out.
Before the merge, Nigel was in an alliance with: Albert, Cedric, Makato and Tammy and were very successful overall. Team Destruction lost the first 4 challenges, which infuriated Nigel, thus forcing him to fight harder.

At this point, Nigel was now in an official relationship with Zara, which progressed steadily throughout the season. As they were placed on opposite teams, their relationship had a fairly slow start. Nigel even skipped a few elimination ceremonies so he could spend more time with her. This eventually lead to them sharing their first kiss, upon Zara's request for Nigel to accompany her, to her infamous Stone Circle.
From there, their relationship really started to pick up the pace, quickly escalating from being sweet and subtle, to being borderline obnoxious. They were very open with their relationship.
When the merge came, Nigel went from super confident to quite unsure; as it was the first time he had ever made it to the merge. He instantly found himself in a sticky situation: he found himself working both sides. 
Nigel's loyalty lied with Zara and Albert, but Rune, who was part of another alliance, was attempting to bring Nigel over to their side. This, however, was short lived, and backfired on Rune tremendously. Nigel tricked Rune into telling him some information about his alliances' potential plans. After Rune told him that their plans could possibly involve threatening Zara, Nigel didn't hesitate to inform her. The two agreed that this made Rune a potential threat, and decided that they needed to eliminate him as soon as possible. Together, they convinced Albert, and perhaps the rest of their alliance, to vote for Rune, thus causing Nigel to backstab him and cause his elimination. Nigel wasn't proud of this, but felt that it needed to be done.
At the next elimination, Albert found himself in trouble as Makato had turned against him and was attempting to eliminate him. Nigel and Zara conversed with each other, debating which one of them would use some of their points to buy a 'Friend in Need' for Albert. They agreed that Nigel would do it, as he had more points. He bought a ‘Friend in Need’ for Albert, ultimately saving him and probably the main cause of Makato’s elimination. However, it was never revealed that Nigel actually made that move as it wasn’t shown in the episode and it seemed like he didn’t do anything.
Nigel, now being responsible for 2 eliminations in a row, started to feel a massive amount of guilt and didn’t sleep well for a while. This eventually caused a nightmare that ended up haunting him, and deeply damaged Nigel’s trust for Albert for a while. They stayed friends, but Nigel came off as a little more skeptical.
Once the double elimination was announced, Nigel instantly knew this was going to be the end of his line, and he was right to believe it. Accepting his fate with open arms, he took a chance to state in the confessional, that he had respect for everyone in the game, and finally expressed a little bit of pride for what he had achieved. Cedric was eliminated via the vote and Nigel was eliminated via Cedric’s choice. Despite all of Zara’s pleading for him to stay, Bladzz showed no remorse and sent Nigel and Cedric away, leaving Zara completely heartbroken.
Despite all the controversy surrounding the double elimination, Nigel claimed that the outcome was nobody's fault and stated that everyone did what they had to do. Everyone had to vote for someone, and since it was a vote between the whole of their alliance, it was inevitable that someone was going to get backstabbed. Nigel doesn't blame Cedric for his elimination at all, as the entire alliance (Nigel, Zara and Cedric), were clearly following what Albert was telling them to do, although Nigel did eventually admit to being slightly bitter about it, as he felt he worked harder for his place.
Nigel came out of the season finishing 6th. 
Total Dragon Livin' It Up
Before the season was cancelled, Nigel was given an opportunity to compete in this season as Simon's replacement as he was 'un-responsive'. Nigel would have been the team captain for The Deadly Irish who would have consisted of: Cedric, Landon, Evan, Benjamin, Madeleine, Elinor, Laura and Genesis .
