Name: Pearl Presnell

Age: 63

Residence: Sheridan, Wyoming

Occupation: Baker

Minimum 50-word biography: Pearl was the heir to the Presnell Bakery that her family owns for many years now. Giving birth to three children with her husband Carlos (60) she is now proud grandmother. The first Survivor contestant that caught Pearl’s attention was none other than Chaos Kass who is the main inspiration why Pearl applied to the show.

Background (no need to get too detailed if you addressed most of it in the bio): Born into the Presnell family, Pearl grew up with rather wealthy lifestyle, Pearl didn’t like the way her family was treating poor people but kept it to herself since the only thing she knew was to follow her father’s orders. After her father passed when she was 20 years old, Pearl inherited the family’s bakery and she quickly moved out with her now husband to live more like normal people. Enjoying the new lifestyle, Pearl gave birth to three children. Adrian (30), Crystal (24) and Wyatt (19) with Crystal being the next heir to the Presnell Bakery. Pearl lived a pretty peaceful life from the time she moved out until the passing of her mother who she was very close to. This motivated Pearl to start doing more interesting things in life before it’s too late and one of those things is Survivor.

Character Archetype (Hero, Healer, Hustler, Villain, Mastermind, Blubbering Idiot, etc.): A desperate player/caring grandmother

Strategy: Scared to be voted out early, Pearl will not be scared to do anything to get out of the chopping block. Flipping back and forth, lying about someone to get ahead but at the same time she tries to use her sweet grandmother persona so that others don’t think of her as a big threat or a devious player. If Pearl gets deep into the game (Swap/Merge) she would calm down as she would have completed her main goal, she would play more calmly and more level-headed game with making bonds with new and her old tribemates. Despite wanting to play loyal, Pearl will flip or do anything if she feels like she is at the bottom in the alliance but given her paranoia from the start of the game, Pearl isn’t able to tell the difference between real signals and people just talking together, suspicious about every conversation that doesn’t involve her.

Strengths/Weaknesses (Surviving, Gameplay, Challenges, etc.): Pearl’s biggest weakness is for sure the physical challenges and her paranoia over being one of the first people voted out. Pearl is really good at puzzles and logical type challenges and can easily comfort somebody thanks to her sweet grandma personality.

Anything else?: Pearl is 6'05 and slightly overweight.
