Cillian Knowles

Cillian was a castaway on Essential Survivor: 
==Anarchy==
Cillian’s story is just a little bit tragic. Being the second boot of Essential Survivor 7, he didn’t get a ton of screen time, but Cillian nonetheless made an impact - albeit small - on the season.
Early in the season, Cillian went to work, searching for idols and advantages. He found the Legacy Advantage - an idol that can only be played at the merge tribal and Final 6 tribal. Cillian soon lost immunity and was forced to go to the first tribal council of the season. 
Cillian was relatively under-the-radar in the chaos of Dom’s boot and Parker’s “advantage”. However, he was beginning to flounder in the department of social connections. Cillian was soon seen as invisible, or at best, expendable. He nonetheless was inducted into Tal’s “revolution” alliance and helped his tribe vote out Dom.
After tribal, Cillian mistakenly began to think he had deep connections in the tribe due to consistently receiving fish as part of the food system. He was mistaken. Going into the second round, Cillian failed the challenge and found himself going to tribal. With the easy target in Parker being immune, he was in trouble. While Cillian didn’t show much strategizing here, his close - and only - ally in Lauren began to campaign for him to stay and Elle to go. 
Lauren appealed to the most influential player in Barney. However, her discussion about Joseph being a trustworthy contestant stressed him out, and didn’t motivate him to go against Elle, Lauren’s target. Barney’s pull in the game, combined with Cillian’s inactivity, caused everyone in the tribe to vote him out of the game in a 7-2 vote.
With Cillian’s elimination, Lauren was the odd woman out in the group of eight that went to tribal. Before leaving, he secretly gave her a lifeline in the game - his Legacy Advantage - showing that perhaps Cillian had one real ally after all.
