Name (Age): Varla Rook (28)

Relationship to Other Significant Castaway: Adopted Daughter

Reason for Going on Survivor: For a once in a lifetime experiance, My Momma is a very special lady and she aint gunna be around for ever, so i wanna share the experiance of Survivor with her cuz it's always been her dream and i wanna make her happy. She's applied like so many times ive lost count.

What is You Main Strategy on Survivor?: Be Loud and proud, Aint nothing or no-one that can stop me achieving my goal if i put my mind to it and i aint gunna sugar-coat it when i gotta vote someone out, If they gotta go they gotta go. Whatevs makes me and my mom stay in the game longer.

What Makes You Unique?: Well i dyed my hair purple for the Lols but yeah I'm lead guitarist of a gothic rock band called "The Sawring Eagles" so i'm definetley out-there and abit of a wierdo. (My momma always did tell me i was special) I also say it like it is, That might get me in trouble but luckily i got my Mom for all the strategic and thinking parts of the game.

What is it Like to Play With Your Loved One?: I was orphaned when i was 5 so i never really knew my real parents. My mom adopted me when i was young and took me under her wing. I was welcomed with open arms and lots of hugs. She's the best so to play Survivor with her is like the best thing ever. It means i can repay her for all the times she's looked after me.

Are You a Brains, Beauty, or Brawn?: I hate being called pretty so i definatley aint a Beauty, My Momma does all the thinking so she's the Brains. I guess i'm a Brawn.



Name (Age): Blanche Rook (60)

Relationship to Other Significant Castaway: Adoptive Mother

Reason for Going on Survivor: To furfill a dream that started along time ago when Survivor Borneo first aired, I love Survivor, never missed an episode. I've applied so many times i lost count. I want to play Survivor while i still can and while i'm still healthy because if wait much longer i'll be too old to compete.

What is You Main Strategy on Survivor?: Simple really dear, Molly Coddle. If the younglings are anything like my own brood then they'll love to be molly coddled. Everyone misses there mother and so i aim to try and play that card if possible. That being said, I've also watched enough Survivor to know when to tell the truth and when to lie so throwing the kiddos under the bus when the time comes will be no problem. Unless of course i get too attached to them and start mothering them too much. As you tend to do at my age.

What Makes You Unique?: I've raised 7 children, 3 of my own, 4 adopted. Varla was the youngest and the last of my adopted bunch so i spoiled her a little. I've been about for a long time so i know a thing or two when it comes to playing the game, I used to be a kindergarten teacher til i retired so i'm pretty quick at noticing when someones lying to me too. Not a single cookie was stolen from the cookie jar in my house without me knowing about it.

What is it Like to Play With Your Loved One?: Varla's my pride and joy, I should'nt say this really but i spend more time with her than my other children. Yes my little girls abit kooky and abit as the kids put it (Far-out) but she's a nice person once you get to know her. I hate to say it but the challenges are going to kill me so Varla's going to have to be my strength out on the island.

Are You a Brains, Beauty, or Brawn?: I was considered a Beauty when i was in my 20's maybe but now i'm just considered an old gal, So Beauty is out of the question. Brawn is not my specialty as you can tell by my weak hip so Brains is all i got going for me. At least they still work.
