Cindy Alto-Landgraab

**Days Lasted:** | 39

**Cindy Alto-Landgraab** is the Sole Survivor of *Simvivor: Dragon Valley*.

## Profile

Cindy was ex-communicated from her parents after marrying into the Landgraab family. The Altos are a prestigious family based around “new” money and being kind-hearted individuals, so Cindy’s engagement to Eugene was seen as a severance to those connections. Young and foolish, she followed through with the courtship, but just weeks after her marriage she felt compelled to leave her new husband behind. Having been separated for almost two years now, Cindy has just recently re-communicated with Eugene, but with *Simvivor*’s grand prize on the table, will Cindy let go of her bitter feelings towards Eugene for the money?

## Simvivor

One of the quieter castaways on the Claddagh tribe, Cindy's adventure in *Dragon Valley* was nothing like she could have imagined. The audience, and her tribemates, got to know her as the wife that jilted her husband Eugene Landgraab over a perceived temper tantrum. Getting on nearly everyone's nerves for her lack of work ethic, Cindy seemed to be an easy target once Tribal Council eventually rolled around. Making it to the third episode without an immunity loss, the Claddagh tribe found a new target between two angry castaways, so Cindy was spared and advanced another week.

At the tribe swap, Cindy and Eugene had separated for the second time in their marriage. A lonely castaway on the Claddagh tribe once more, Cindy found solace in a friendship to Luke Holland. Bonding over their marital troubles, Cindy's heart softened towards Eugene and she for once became eager to see him again soon. Luke's encouragement led Cindy to work harder around camp, although she was still perceived as a brat by Corinne Gomez. At the season's sixth Tribal Council, Cindy was blindsided by her tribemates turning the plan to vote off the weak and conniving JP Langley and Cindy's ally Praveena Lawrenz took the fall instead. Shaken by the loss, Cindy turned into survival mode and kicked her friendliness into high gear to try and repair her friendships.

Once the merge took place, Cindy made an apology to Eugene in private over her poor treatment of him in the past. The two made up and Cindy saw success in the Immunity Challenges, winning the first two. While Eugene battled a looming target on his back, Cindy managed to make up with siblings Danica Edmonds and JP, but her cold strategic game left them in the dust on multiple occasions. Cindy and Eugene worked their way through the merge, eliminating everyone in minority positions, but Cindy kept the "Sneaky Siblings" around longer than Eugene had anticipated.

The final five is where Cindy finally put her foot down to eliminate one of the two siblings. Her sights originally set on JP, he won the day's Individual Immunity Challenge, so remorsefully Cindy sided with Luke and Eugene to eliminate Danica instead. The threesome stuck loyal to each other the next round, taking care of JP once and for all, but not before Luke's arrogance at that night's Tribal Council secured his position as the most unlikable player left in the game. Cindy intended to win the Final Immunity Challenge and actually honor Luke by taking him with her to the Final Tribal Council. Cindy admittedly felt paranoid that Eugene's leadership and influence would suffice to give him the win handily, but Eugene won instead. Eugene stated it was a no-brainer and elected to bring his wife with him to the Final Tribal Council.

There, Cindy's "painfully boring" approach to *Simvivor* was trashed by the Jurors, but her husband faced worse criticism for his inability to formulate any personal relationships with the castaways. In all, Cindy received five Jury votes - enough to win, but at the Reunion Show, she expressed that the only joyful moment of the season for her was reuniting with Eugene.
