Name (First and Last): Catherine Lynyshyn

Age: 50

Hometown: Minot, North Dakota

Occupation: Family Lawyer

Tell me about their personality: Catherine is a very passionate woman, and always has been. She's very competitive, will never go down without a fight, and never fails to fight for what she feels is right, which is what has led her to becoming a successful Family Lawyer. Catherine is also a pretty social woman with a quirky sense of humour. She can also be quite sassy when she wants to be. Catherine loves spending time with her husband, her 3 children, and 1 grandchild, as well as her Siamese Cat, Lester. She also loves reading, especially Stephen King novels, as well as playing the piano and watching horror movies with the girls.

Tell me about their backstory (Sorry if this is a bit long): Catherine was born on a grain farm in rural North Dakota into a traditional farming family. She has two brothers: Vladimir (who is now 54), and Ronald (who is now 48). Due to being born into the traditional farming family, Catherine was mostly designated to help her mother in the kitchen and in the garden as she grew up, and was merely expected to find a husband, have kids of her own, and live the same kind of lifestyle as her mother. Although she doesn't resent her family for this as it was the only lifestyle they knew, by the time Catherine reached high school, she decided that she wanted to make something of herself. Eventually, she decided that she wanted to become a lawyer and was rewarded a scholarship to attend the University of North Dakota once she finished high school. However, her parents couldn't afford to send her to law school (nor did Catherine expect them to pay for it at that point), so Catherine decided to get a full time job and pay her own way through law school as that was the field she wanted to get into. By the time she finished law school, she met her now husband, Marcus, who is a plumber. Over twenty years later, Catherine has represented over 500 clients as a Family Lawyer, although she also has some experience in Civil Litigation, Wills & Estates, and Criminal Law. She is also a well respected lawyer, currently living in Minot, North Dakota with her family.

Are they more strategic, Social, or physical and why?: Strategic. Catherine is a very competitive person and won't settle for anything less than getting to the end and winning the title of Sole Survivor. Although she does have good social skills, she plans to play a more strategy-based game than anything else.

What would their go to strategy be in the game?: Catherine's main idea is to play the game by ear and be flexible with her strategy. She'd like to lay low for the first couple of days, but due to her age and weakness in challenges, she's not afraid to play big early on in order to keep herself in the game if that's what she needs to do. Basically, if possible, she'd like to be calling the shots a little bit behind the scenes, but she won't be afraid to take control of the vote if she needs to.

Who would their family visitor be? (please include a name): Catherine's husband, Marcus Lynyshyn.

Give me a confessional from them so I can have an idea of how they talk: "Yeah, of freaking course they're going to blame the challenge loss on me. I get it, I'm the weak old bitch, which therefore means that I'm the easy target! But whatever, as far as I'm concerned, it's game on! I don't care what I have to do to stay in this game, because whether these people like it or not, I will be here tomorrow!"
