Safety Without Power

The Safety Without Power is an advantage that allows players to leave Tribal Council before the votes are cast, gaining immunity at the cost of their vote.
==Overview==
Before the votes are cast, the holder must announce their intention to use this advantage. Upon handing the advantage to Jeff, the holder may then grab their torch and leave Tribal Council. As they are no longer present for the vote, the holder cannot cast a vote at that Tribal Council, but in turn cannot be voted out.
The Safety Without Power cannot nullify the use of another advantage.
==Strategy==
The main use of the Safety Without Power advantage is to protect the holder from being voted out. This is especially true for players who are on the bottom strategically, as losing their vote may be a small drawback if it would not have changed the outcome of the vote regardless.
For players not on the bottom, however, using the advantage can be an active detriment. Unlike a Hidden Immunity Idol, which can be used to grant safety and break close votes in the user's favor, the Safety Without Power resulting in the loss of a contestant's vote can severely harm the capabilities of an alliance, possibly putting them in the minority and leaving them open to a pagonging at the hands of an opposing alliance.
The other drawback of the Safety Without Power is the holder being required to leave Tribal Council by using it. Though the holder will know who was voted out after the other contestants return to camp, they will not know the events that transpired after their departure, potentially resulting in the loss of crucial information if the holder has no allies to fill them in on what they missed.
==History==
===Island of the Idols===
On Day 17, Janet Carbin was selected by random draw to visit the Island of the Idols. There, she was greeted by mentors Rob Mariano and Sandra Diaz-Twine, who gave her the chance to play a game for the chance to win the Safety Without Power advantage. Janet ultimately declined the offer, with the advantage never entering play.
===Winners at War===
The first time the Safety Without Power entered play was on Day 5 of . Natalie Anderson found the Safety Without Power on the , which could be used until there were ten contestants remaining in the game. She was instructed to sell the advantage to a player in the main game for one Fire Token; she chose to send it to her friend and ally Jeremy Collins, who purchased the advantage. Jeremy ultimately used the advantage at the Day 25 Tribal Council, saving himself from elimination at the hands of the opposing alliance, but leaving his alliance exposed and resulting in Tyson Apostol's elimination.
===Survivor 45===
On Day 4, Bruce Perreault of Belo, Brandon Donlon of Lulu, and Drew Basile of Reba were selected to go on a journey. After taking time to get to know each other, the three men parted ways to each find a matching game with a box containing an advantage that could be opened by completing it. While Bruce elected not to not play the game and Brandon played the game but lost, Drew managed to win the game and obtained the Safety Without Power advantage, which could be used at any Tribal Council until the final ten. Upon reaching the final ten Tribal Council, Drew elected not to play his advantage, leaving it to expire unused.
