**Nikki** is a contestant and finalist from **MintORGs Season 1: Hogwarts**.

A strong social player, Nikki's game spiralled out of control after Trelawney's first trip to tribal, where they were even tempted to ask people to vote them out due to the circumstances of Trelawney losing the challenge. They then fell out with Riley, which caused a rift in the Lupin tribe, and was very emotional and paranoid, burning lots of bridges with potential allies. While almost any merge player would've brought Nikki to FTC with them, unfortunately the reason for that is that Nikki didn't play the best game, and rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. However, they set themselves up to be at FTC no matter what, and especially stood out with their honest assessment of their game at FTC.

## Survivor

**Episode 1**

Nikki is finding the Great Hall hectic, but fun! They're currently working on building social connections with their tribe mates. Nikki was approached by Wei for an alliance, but didn't seem too interested. Nikki isn't feeling well, but has let their tribe mates know. They're in a safe position in a majority alliance.

Wei wanted to work with Nikki, and has reached out to Nikki for help with the idol hunt, but to no avail.

**Episode 2**

Nikki likes their new tribe, finding Eris and Imke to give off the best vibes. Nikki noticed that Rips seemed hellbent on getting rid of Eris if they lost. By the end of the challenge, Eris dropped to the bottom of Nikki's trust ranking.

Kieran is finding Nikki draining, stating that they only talk about themselves.

**Episode 3**

Nikki was pleased to not be at tribal, but was also worried that Trelawney might have a target on their backs for winning. Nikki also noted that Rips wants to vote out the weakest challenge performer if Trelawney go to tribal.

**Episode 4**

Nikki really struggled with the challenge, taking it very hard. They really didn’t want to go to tribal. They felt it was really unfair to Eris, and were really frustrated with the challenge. They were even tempted to ask people to vote for them instead.

Rips had a parchment ready for Nikki , due to Nikki potentially wanting people to vote them. Wes was worried that Nikki would walk from the game.

**Episode 5**

Another rough round for Nikki, who was struggling with some IRL issues. They were very impressed with Hufflepuff's score in the challenge. Nikki is becoming concerned about how much time they’re spending playing ORGs, which we totally understand and respect. Nikki says they only really trust Kyle, which is exactly what Hayleigh said. In the end, Nikki was left with little choice but to vote Jamal, as their ally Rips had been flipped, and they didn’t want to vote in the minority or risk getting rocked out.

Rips trusts Nikki the most.

**Episode 6**

Nikki was glad to be with Kyle, and missed Imke too. They felt as though they didn't help too much in the scavenger hunt, but was glad not to go to tribal - they said they wouldn't know who to vote if Lupin had ended up at tribal.

Kyle believes he has Nikki "as a number" on the Lupin tribe. Riley is targeting Nikki during this phase of the game due to him believing that Nikki is 'gonna be a problem anyway'.

**Episode 7**

Nikki thinks the Lupin tribe is chaotic, and they didn't want to go to tribal. They heard Duolingo and Riley were fighting, and was fed up of the situation. They feel like it's their fault Riley started treating Duolingo badly, saying they should've kept their mouth shut. They were happy to see Riley voted out after an emotional and stressful tribal.

**Episode 8**

Nikki was very happy to see Riley gone, and had an emotional round. They wanted Meredith or Jace gone, and voted out Meredith. However, they received Meredith's stray vote, which caused them to be very upset.

**Episode 9**

Nikki submitted a **video confessional** this round!

**Episode 10**

Nikki trusts Kyle most going into the merge. They were hoping to vote Jace but now can't due to him winning immunity. They can't figure out which name to tell Andy. They're aware of a split on Hayleigh and Andy coming together, but is worried that if Horcruxes get played, Rips will go. They were extremely upset about Rips being voted out in the end.

**Episode 11**

Nikki was feeling very sensitive after the Rips vote, and was angry at Hayleigh for allegedly ‘attacking their entire character'. They tried to win immunity in the auction but failed. Then she learned Tomato told Hayleigh the lie about them, and then they told Andy, causing her to be mad at Tomato . They thought they would get idoled out, but ultimately, Hayleigh was voted out.

Jace noted that Hayleigh is targeting Nikki this round. After Nick got hold of information that Hayleigh and Andy gossiped about Nikki, his alliance started to target Hayleigh this round. Tomato had a conversation with Nikki where they said they don't go on invisible mode. The next day, he caught them using invisible mode.

**Episode 12**

Nikki locked in their score for the challenge 11 seconds too late, disqualifying them. They went along with the plan to split between Andy and Tomato.

Kyle thinks he might be able to get to the end with Nikki. Wei wants to get to the end with Nikki, believing that Nikki will get 0 jury votes which guarantees him at least 2nd place minimum.

**Episode 13**

Nikki was glad someone from their side won immunity. Andy willed them the Cursed Necklace, meaning they weren't able to vote. They believe they're a free FTC goat, so there's no need to target them.

**Episode 14**

Nikki is tired of all the flipping. They want to see Wei or Wes voted out. They heard that Tomato, Wei and Kyle wanted Imke out, which confused them because they were talking earlier with Kyle about going for Wes . Nikki wants to keep Imke around.

Duolingo believes his best shot of winning will be against Nikki and Kyle. Kyle wants to go to the end with Nikki, but doesn't see a possible scenario whereby it is possible. Nick noted that Kyle, Nikki and Duolingo are aligned. Tomato doesn't know what to say to Nikki, Kyle or Duolingo. Wei noted that Imke, Wes and Nick are secretly aligned and planning to flip on Nikki and Kyle.

**Episode 15**

Nikki felt they needed to fight for their ride or die, Kyle, who just got voted out of the game. They acknowledged that the odds are against them at the moment and they have to win the challenge. Nikki felt doomed as they believed there was no incentive for Imke and Nick to vote with her, with the added fact that Imke and Nick did not talk to her. Their assumptions were right as Imke and Nick did vote for them. However, they were also left in the dark when Imke got blindsided in a 3-2-2 vote.

Imke is targeting Nikki and believes that once Nikki is voted out, the ravenclan alliance will be able to pagong the rest out. Nick is leaning towards voting out Nikki. Tomato was filled - in on a plan to vote out Nikki but did not like this idea, which led to him initiating Imke's blindside. Wes was flipped by Tomato and Wei into voting out Imke, he initially wanted to vote out Nikki.

**Episode 16**

Nikki felt really surprised and shocked to still be around after the last round. They feel that they are on the chopping block next if Duolingo wins immunity. They did end up being on the chopping block but Tomato and Wei reached out to force a tie of 3-3 and eventually keep them alive at the re-vote. They feel thankful for what Tomato and Wei have done. After surviving this tribal, Nikki has officially reached the finale!

At the revote, Nick switched his vote from Nikki to Wes. Wes attempted to push a Nikki vote but was blindsided instead.

**Finale**

Final 5

Nikki has been vibing after Wes's exit and wants to go to the end with Duolingo.

Nick believed that Nikki and Duolingo bought his words and attempted to push for a Tomato boot, but to no avail. Wei believes that at F4, Nikki and duolingo will more likely want to go to firemaking against Tomato than himself.

Final 4

Nikki feels one step closer to FTC after Nick's vote-out and wants to go to the end with Duolingo and Wei. However, they are also aware that they haven't made impressive moves all game. As Nikki lost the challenge, they are worried about going into a F4 tie-breaking fire. They feel that them and Duolingo will need to convince Wei to flip on Tomato for them to be safe. Eventually, the vote went on as planned and Tomato was voted out 3-1.

Tomato wants to go to the end with Nikki and Wei, but couldn't do so after Duolingo yet again won immunity. Wei wants to sit at the end with Tomato and Nikki, but also couldn't do so for the same reason. Tomato attempted to convince Nikki and Duolingo to go for Wei instead, but to no avail. Wei discussed with Nikki and Duolingo to solidify the votes on Tomato. Tomato and Wei discussed. possible fire between Tomato and Nikki, but the plan was botched.

FTC

Nikki took an alternative route in being truthful about how they really feel and expresses views on how they felt their game paled to the other two. They shared their opinions on the final three and believed that Wei might've just taken the crown.

With no jury votes, Nikki has received 3rd place (2nd- runner up) for MintOrgs S1: Hogwarts.
