Serena

***STATISTICS***

***PERSONALITY***

**Serena Powers**, labeled "The Try-hard", is the epitome of giving it your all. The second daughter of an Olympic family, Serena has some big shoes to fill and has built an incredibly strict routine to make sure she reaches all of her goals. She is super athletic and absolutely loves to compete in physical competitions, always giving it 110%. Because of her relentless over-competitiveness, many people find her annoying and hard to be around for long, especially if she isn't winning. She is a huge sore loser and prides herself on being able to complete whatever physical task you have for her.

Her older sister Marina was training to be an Olympic skater whilst growing up, and seeing her sister's athletic feats inspired and motivated Serena to give it her all too. A little attention deprived for most of her childhood, Serena adopted her parent's attitude and drive for athletic success in hopes she'd gain their approval. Her parents' strict guidelines included forcing them to participate in a multitude of sports and extracurriculars, which is why Serena is in such good shape. Once Marina opted out of Olympic training to focus on her studies, their parents projected their aspirations onto Serena, which made her work even harder. However, this also caused her to develop a super destructive personality, causing her to have trouble making lasting relationships with others.

## Island

**Serena**, like the other 19 contestants, was brought into the savanna. Right off the bat, Serena exuded in positive energy and strong combat skills. However, this also proved to tarnish her throughout the season. In Episode-2, Serena was caught alongside fellow contestant, and new frenemy, Iris, eliminating both of their chances to be a team captain. Serena was the first person chosen by Brent to be on the Barbaric Bones, due to her combat prowess. However this would prove to be a mistake, has Serena caused most of the arguments on the team, either due to poor team management by Brent, people pissing her off like Khandi, Milo, Arya, or Krystal, or her strong leader personality clashing with Iris and Lizzie. Although she was an outcast by her team, she managed to make her way to the merge, unlike most of her team-mates. Serena performed consistently well in the first few merge episodes, growing a fondness to Jordan, who is a fellow strong-leader, albeit more polite. Despite this, she was eliminated in Episode 14, due to both her consistent performances, and Sean's meddling. She ranked in 10th place. Serena, unlike most of the other contestants rooted for Blair in the finale to win due to her status as an "underdog."

## Action

**Serena**, unlike the first season, was a Team Captain, of the Proud Producers. The team she chose consisted of Willow and Jesse, due to powerful presences and placements, Ray, Chloe, and Arya due to balance, and Penny due to being stuck with last choice. Right off the bat, Serena's team lost two challenges, in both she showed to be turning into a much more bossy and antagonistic character. She won her team the Pirate challenge, due to Chloe's quick thinking combined with her athletic ability. Up to Episode 5 [regarding the Aftermath], her team, along with Jordan's team, were getting sick and tired of their competitive clashing personalities, thus explaining Jordan's elimination in said episode, and Serena's right after. Serena placed 10th once again for going psycho in the challenge, however many fans have pointed out Serena got 10th twice in a row.

## Uncanny Isle

**Serena**instantly went into this season butting heads with Iris, however Jordan was avoiding her due to her more then toxic personality last season. However, Serena soon began to change in this season. Being placed on the problematic team of Iris, Milo, Ariana, and April [aka, Team Grief], it seemed like Serena would take over has boss again, however was balanced by Iris's wit and Ariana's ... Everything. In Episode-2, Serena spent most of her time arguing with the two previously listed contestants, however was saved by April. Eventually throughout the pre-merge, after losing April, Iris and Serena team up against the other two, and become good friends. At merge, after losing Iris, Serena teams up with Jordan and Blair, becoming friends with both again, and forming the Trifecta alliance. However they lose Blair right after and replaced her with Trevor, however then Trevor was lost. Eventually, Serena loses to Ariana in a combat challenge, and places 4th place. In the finale, Serena is chosen by Jordan to be his "date", and is eventually the one to encourage him enough to win.
