Needle is a transgender female contestant on BFDI, BFDIA, BFB and TPOT.
She was on the Squashy Grapes until she was eliminated in Episode 7. Ironically she has slapped various people 13 times (as mentioned by the Announcer) before she was eliminated, which would cause the TLC to become full for the first time. She is known to dislike the name "Needy", slapping those who refer to her by the name Needy. She started the catchphrase "Awww, Seriously?" which the newbie David would carry on after her elimination. The first time she is called "Needy" is in episode 3 when Leafy asks if she thinks non-existent Icy is mad at her, prone to slapping after being called Needy. Needle is also known to have a possible crush on Coiny.
Needle is competing in Battle for Dream Island Again on W.O.A.H. Bunch. Needle's best friends are Coiny, Ice Cube, Pin, Teardrop, and Leafy, however after episode 3, Needle and Leafy are enemies due to Leafy calling her "Needy" many times.
In BFB, Needle was on the team The Losers! She became CGI in BFB 11 for some time after eating a realistic cake.
She is currently competing on Team8s in TPOT.
Appearance
Needle appears to be a sewing needle. She is very tall and thin and is colored light gray. In "Get to the Top in 500 Steps", her body is turned into CGI by the Photo Cake that Leafy gave her.
Personality
Similarly to Ice Cube, Needle is a fairly quiet and vengeful character. She is mostly known for her irritable behavior whenever she's called "Needy", as she will slap anyone who says the word, sometimes when it isn't even directed at her. Needle has never specified the reason she dislikes being called "Needy", but it's likely because the word needy defines as "lacking the necessities of life; very poor".
In BFB, Needle has become kind, approachable, and supportive, such as telling Donut in "The Liar Ball You Don't Want", that what Loser did would not affect the number of votes he would get. However, she appears to be somewhat irritable again after "The Four is Lava", where she is sufficiently annoyed by Leafy meddling with other people's business to slap her, how she loudly yells at Firey and Leafy to shut up and do the challenge, or how she shouts "Finally!" when Coiny comes up with plan in "You Know Those Buttons Don't Do Anything, Right?". She frequently displays a grouchy personality throughout those episodes.
Abilities
- Super Speed: Needle is on many occasions shown to be incredibly fast compared to the other contestants. In "Barriers and Pitfalls", she was the first to finish the obstacle course. In "Get to the Top in 500 Steps", she finished the race up the stairs almost immediately after the contest started, while the remaining contestants spend the rest of the episode trying to get to the top. And in "The Four is Lava", she was able to run from Four to grab Coiny and run back to Four before Flower or Naily could even finish.
