Topher

Topher, labeled, is a contestant on Total Drama: Pahkitew Island, as a member of the Pimâpotew Kinosewak.

Personality
Topher is a huge fan of Chris McLean, and often tries to catch up to him. He doesn't make much of an effort to help his team, as he would rather spend his time talking to Chris. He thinks of himself as a Chris 2.0 and thinks he'd do great as a host. He's sometimes a little full of himself, and carries little regard for anybody else. He is shown to be ambitious as he secretly stole Chris's phone, that way he can call the network and ask to be Chris' replacement.

Total Drama: Pahkitew Island
Topher is introduced in So, Uh This Is My Team? on the zeppelin with the other thirteen contestants. He is first seen running around the zeppelin looking for Chris. He soon bumps into Sugar and asks her if she knows where Chris is, which irritates her, leading her to pin him to a wall and yell at him. As soon as Chris appears, Topher begins fawning all over him. After the blimp begins to go down, Topher offers Chris a parachute so he may safely escape the crash. Chris then reveals he isn't actually on the zeppelin, and is instead a hologram.

Once on the island, Chris places Topher on Pimâpotew Kinosewak along with everybody else who had a working parachute. During the challenge to build shelter, Jasmine orders her entire team to bring something good to help construct their shack. Topher makes a confessional immediately after this claiming he'll bring his face. Topher then climbs up onto the boulder where Chris and Chef are standing on and asks Chris if the show will be going to commercial soon, as he has always wanted to see Chris do. Chris then exclaims he likes Topher, after he compliments his abilities.

After the commercial, Chris pushes Topher into Chef's arms, who then throws him near the pile of scraps used to build the team shelters and shoots him with tennis balls. After the challenge is over, Chris informs the contestants that Pimâpotew Kinosewak won the challenge and the reward. Topher is last seen celebrating with his teammates and also being hugged by Rodney.

In I Love You, Grease Pig! he takes the pig from Rodney and zip-lines with it across the gorge. He then attempts to go to commercial break until Chris stops him and does it himself. His team wins the challenge once again, due to Jasmine and the celebrate whilst walking back to their tree house. In Twinning Isn't Everything he hosts the fight between Amy and Samey, akin to Chris. Moments before the challenge starts, Topher converses with Chris. They speak for a majority of the challenge, and Topher winds up not even attempting to help. While talking to Chris, he points out his crows feet and mentions it may lead to the network replacing Chris with a newer, younger host. This prompts Chris to cover his face with makeup, to which Topher replies that it makes him look like he's thirty again, which annoys Chris as he claims that this is his actual age.

In I Love You, I Love You Knots he complements Chris on his idea for the challenge, slightly annoying Chris in the process. Topher is not selected to participate in the challenge, but is spared from elimination due to Rodney losing the challenge for his team.

In A Blast from the Past he notices a change in Chris' appearance, realizing Chris has applied Slotox to his face. Topher then fears that he may not be able to become host should Chris continue to look younger. He later goes on to collect the first dueling stick for his team. He shows surprise when Ella gets shocked by Max. He then tries to go to a commercial break while Chris was being attacked by the scuba-bear only to be interrupted when Chef comes back with Shawn. His team ends up losing the challenge, but he does not get eliminated.
