Iguana

**Iguana** is a male contestant on The Wildest Prize. He did not compete in Pre-Season until "Can't Weight to Win", where he barely won the debut over Duck. His time as a contestant was short-lived, though, as he was eliminated only a few episodes later in "Pre-Season Recap". He is among the 24 contestants that will join Season 1.

## Appearance

Iguana's appearance isn't the most accurate to real iguanas, though this may be for the sake of making him easier to draw.

He has green scales on most of his body, except for his head which has turquoise scales. He also has dark orange frills along the back of his head.

His original design featured lighter green scales on his belly, though his was dropped with his current design. Nothing else about it has changed from his old design to his current one.

## Personality

Iguana is shown to be very friendly, willing to help others out and generally being kind to others. Usually, he's very polite and respectful, not displaying a rude attitude unprovoked. He is especially respectful to his friends.

However, he also gets defensive of people who are undeservingly mistreated, and isn't afraid to stand up for them if need be. He's also willing to go far out of his way to protect people he cares about if it comes to his attention that they are in danger, such as when he disintegrated Gage without a second thought for being an accomplice to Cat and Red's unlawful imprisonment.

He is also nervous and hesitant, being seemingly overwhelmed when others go out of their way to do nice things for him, even if it's his friends doing this. His nervousness can also be shown in the flashback in "Pre-Season Recap" when he quickly apologized to Red after bumping into her. In fact, he can sometimes need advice from his friends to move forward, such as in "Time for Action" when he asked Sheep if his romantic relationship with Red was happening too soon and too quickly, to which she responded that everything was fine.

Above all, though, is the length he is willing to go to just to so his friends a favor, for example when he willingly gave up an immunity in "Ocean Floor Riches" just so Sheep could be safe, despite the fact that he found the treasure chest. He doesn't regret doing anything that helps his friends, even if he takes the fall for it.

It's unknown how he will change in Season 1, if at all.

## Relations

**Red**

Iguana's strongest positive relationship is with Red, as shown throughout the latter half of Pre-Season. Although their relationship only went from platonic to romantic as of "Deadliest Race Ever", it was revealed later on that he actually had feelings for Red since high school. After Red kissed him in the same episode, they started dating, as revealed in the episode's stinger. By the time "Time for Action" took place, he was ready to propose to her, though he encountered a problem; she was nowhere to be found, when got him incredibly concerned. He had a panic attack upon hearing the bad news, wanting to help her and going out of his way to do so. Unfortunately, this would lead to Iguana being captured himself, and eventually being separated from Red once again as Greg attempted to make off with her. After Iguana was given the chance to catch up to Greg (thanks to Matt), he was tempted to kill Greg, though after the latter attempted to use Red as a living shield, Iguana eventually decided against it, not wanting to hurt Red and thinking that letting Greg go was worth it if none of his friends got hurt. Once he and his friends were safe, he decided it would be a good time to propose to Red, which she accepted. Later on in the episode, months after the rescue mission took place, Iguana and Red were shown getting married. In the episode's stinger, they were shown vacationing on Wild Island, which is where their friends suggested they host Season 1.
