Ennui

Ennui was a contestant on Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race as a member of with Crimson.

Personality
Ennui is a dark, brooding soul who has been described to have the emotional range of a stone gargoyle. It is unclear as to why he and his girlfriend Crimson are participating in the show, or if they're even enjoying the experience. Despite his dark and creepy appearance, Ennui actually has an animal magnetism that affects cute and fluffy animals like rabbits, much to his and Crimson's initial disgust. However, he soon adopts one and becomes emotionally bonded with it. While Ennui gravitates towards looking alone and avoids forming alliances, he never shows any malice towards other contestants, with the exception of the Ice Dancers.

Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race
Ennui makes his debut in None Down, Eighteen to Go - Part 1, along with his partner, Crimson. They remain completely silent for the first two episodes, even when spoken to, and ends up creeping out Don with their lack of emotion. They place 14th in the first challenge.

Ennui speaks for the first time in French is an Eiffel Language, where he draws a caricature of Crimson and asks whether she wants to look alive in the picture. Later on the Goths come across Jay and Mickey who are terrified by the catacombs, however Ennui comments how he thinks the catacombs could be opened as an amusement park or a kid's camp. The Goths end up in thirteenth place.

They also proceed through the challenges in Mediterranean Homesick Blues, with little trouble and conversation, ending up in eighth place. In Bjorken Telephone, the Goths preform exceptionally well. Their fluency in Icelandic gives them an advantage in reciting the Icelandic phrase, and their strong stomachs allow them to consume the Icelandic feast with ease and end up finishing first. Don is still unsuccessful in his many attempts to get them to show excitement over winning, though in an Interview, Ennui states in an emotionless tone he was so excited he could pee himself (which he does).

Both Ennui and Crimson are very pleased to find out the country they will be visiting in A Tisket, a Casket, I'm Gonna Blow a Gasket, is Romania. They take their time to enjoy seeing the hometown of Vlad the Impaler, who was the Goth king according to them. During the coffin pushing challenge, Crimson swaps places with Ennui so that he wouldn't miss out on the opportunity of experiencing one while he's alive, despite knowing they will likely be penalized. The Goths end up performing well in the challenge, though Don does end up giving them a penalty. However they are unphased by this, and feel it was worth it believing it to be one of the best experiences of their life.

The Goths are disappointed in having to leave Romania in Hawaiian Honeyruin. They lose time during the All-In due to Crimson refusing to wear the traditional dress until she has colored it black with a marker, though they still end up in tenth place. They continue on in New Beijinging, where Crimson frees the bats during the eating challenge believing that they were beautiful creatures who were not to be eaten.

The Goths seem to be excited about getting to visit Finland in I Love Ridonc & Roll. They hitch a ride with the other teams on their way to the airport after Spud offers. While in the sauna, their makeup starts to melt and comes off after they are accidentally pushed into the river by Kitty. They panic due to not having looked at one another without makeup and cannot accept each other. Due to their appearance, Don does not initially recognize them at first but allows them to compete after seeing their camera crew. Ennui tries to perform an air-guitar but the audience dislikes his performance which saddens him. Not knowing what to do, both of them decide to quit and try to accept each other for who they are but change their minds after seeing gothic clothes in a costume shop. Ennui has no trouble at all pleasing the audience this time around and save themselves from elimination.

After breaking out of prison and building a raft in Shawshank Ridonc-tion, the goths place in seventh.The goths have no trouble at all catching bunnies in Down and Outback due to their affectionate behaviour towards Ennui which sickens him. They seem to be glad when the challenge is over only to realize how the rabbits were terrorizing Australia with their population and acquire one as a pet, naming it Loki. They choose the bungee jumping challenge in Maori or Less and do so without showing any emotion whatsoever.

In Little Bull on the Prairie, Crimson has no trouble at all riding the mechanical bull due to having experience riding bulls while staying at her grandmother's house one summer although she does not seem to want to talk about it. Although the goths are the first team to complete the challenge, they place fourth due to getting distracted by a skull they found on their way to the Chill Zone.

Both Ennui and Crimson seem intrigrued by Devin's behaviour due to his recent breakup in Lord of the Ring Toss and ponder whether or not they should form an alliance with the best friends but end up declining the offer because of Carrie. Ennui has no trouble at all ringing a narwhal but later admits in the confessional that it was pure dumb luck. The blocks seem to melt into snow before the goths can form an igloo, leading Ennui to suggest that they should just mold the snow into an igloo instead. They come in sixth place.

The goths seem to have trouble trying to get venom from the komodo dragons in Got Venom because of wearing deodorant that had been extracted by animals from the same species which frightens them. The ice dancers try to sabotage them by making them believe that it is not safe for Loki to be on challenge grounds but the goths carry on after Ennui communicates with Loki who wants them to continue. Loki is then chased by a komodo dragon up a tree who drools into a bucket the goths had placed to collect venom. After finding a branded carpet, they end up in first place.

The goths continue their winning streak in Dude Buggies by impressing the judge by performing an improvised magic trick which involved Loki being pulled out of the lion by Ennui. The judge later comments that it was the greatest magic trick he had ever seen. After having a footrace with the daters, they come in first place. This angers Josee who continuosly tried to sabotage their chances of winning. In El Bunny Supremo, the Ice Dancers sabotage the goths by kidnapping Loki. It is only during the cliff dive that Ennui notices Loki is missing and puts off the challenge in order to find him. Crimson tries to calm him down after he panics due to having lost a pet in the past. The goths continue the challenge after Loki is found but due to having taken alot of time end up in last place.
