Izzy, in Noah's own terms, is as "nutty as a ten-ton bag of pecans smothered in peanut butter, encased in a cashew the size of China". She is fun but hard to handle and to the other contestants, more trouble than she is worth. Izzy has extraordinary athletic and fighting abilities, and also sticks herself to the wild environment. She is also number eight on the RCMP's "Most Wanted" list, presumably for accidentally blowing up a kitchen, but it is unclear whether she was telling the truth. As a running gag in the series, she will leave in an unusual way after being eliminated, such as her departure in a puff of smoke in Wawanakwa Gone Wild!. In Total Drama Action, she frequently changes her persona to another that she has created for her own amusement. She has also been shown to enjoy plotting bizarre solutions to various situations. Despite her strange ways of showing it, Izzy does care about others (mainly Owen) and means well even if her results don't reflect it.
