Changes

Dora joined the [[HaZe Online Sports Troupe]] after seeing one of the [[Hoster]]s for the team while out on a [[stroll]]. It made her realize that she hadn't played any [[game]]s with other people in a long time, mostly playing single-player construction and strategy games. Despite some [[anxiety|anxieties]], she attended the first meeting of [[Host]], and was relieved to find that there were only two other members. However, as more members joined, they became more and more reserved, until they ended up sitting in the back of the room just sketching plans in their [[notebook]]. At a later meeting, [[Nurse Cap]] happened to catch a glimpse of their notebook. Interested, she asked her about what the drawings were. Excited to share, Dora explained their plans for contraptions and setups, talking until the meeting ended. As they parted ways, Nurse Cap recommended that Dora try [[Urien]] in [[Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike|3rd Strike]] because <q>he has really good setplay.</q> Dora ended up trying the game, and was fascinated by the different tricks possible with Urien's [[Super Art III]], spending hours [[labbing]] combos. However, they quickly became [[frustrated]] with themselves for [[Skill issue|not being able to execute moves well against real opponents]]. Putting her own ability aside, she decided to instead act as a coach for the team, drawing up [[strategies]] and ideas for her [[Team8s|teammates]] to use in their games of [[cow|choice]]. This helped Dora become more comfortable around their team members, and they began settling in [[nicely]].

Unfortunately for her, the [[Mike and Spike|moderators of the wiki]] had other plans for the future of the team, [[merge|merging]] four [[Homepage of Separate Teams|homepages of separate teams]] into one [[Hodgepodge of Shitty Text|hodgepodge of shitty text]]. Distressed by the change and the large influx of new members, Dora briefly [[quit]] the team and isolated themselves. Once she calmed down, she realized how much the [[connection]]s she'd made in the original Host team meant to her. They resolved to go back to the team for the sake of those [[friendship]]s, even if the new changes to the team were [[confusing]]. With the support of the original members of the esports team, Dora slowly but surely [[warmed up]] to the other contestants on the team. She has stated that she's <q>still wary of a few of them [...] but for the most part, it's kind of a refuge for [her] in this camp now.</q><ref>[[Dora/Interviews]]</ref>

Host placed first out of 18 teams with a score of 297.4. Dora was excited to win a challenge, though they couldn't help but feel as though they didn't contribute as much as they could have to their team's page, due to their temporary absence.
