Fabian is a contestant from *Survivor: Millennials vs. Gen X* and *Survivor: Island of the Idols*.

## Survivor: Millennials vs. Gen X

Fabian originally competed on *Survivor: Millennials vs. Gen X*. He was originally placed on the orange Vanua tribe, labelled the 'Millennials' for being 31 years of age at the time of filimg. The Millennials were an extremely tight bunch, playing games and having fun whilst still winning the two immunity challenges they had together. The tribe never attended tribal council together, but all ten members had a close bond. At the tribe expansion, Fabian was placed on the purple Takali tribe along with original members Gabe, Jessica and Sarah. After an immunity win, the tribe lost on Day 12. The Millennial Alliance had control over Gen Xers Dimitri and Jayne, banded together to send Jayne home when they lost. They were lucky enough to win immunity and not have to attend the Double Tribal Council on Day 15, but lost the next challenge. Dimitri, feeling that he was on the outs of the tribe, convinced Jessica and Fabian to join forces with him. He believed that Sarah and Gabe had the potential to become dangerous later on, with Sarah being voted out at tribal council.

At this point, Fabian made the merge and was in an alliance with the Millennials, and another with Jessica and Dimitri. The sub-alliance banded together with post-expansion Vanua members, making an alliance of nine with Fabian, Mac, Igor, Aura, Gabe, Michael, Dusk and Tasha. At their first tribal council, the nine split the votes between Dimitri and Gail. Even though Gail used a Hidden Immunity Idol, it did not matter because Dimitri was voted out anyway. He then voted with Millennial men Mac, Igor and Gabe for Peter, but the majority sent home Michael. The Millennial Alliance banded together at the next vote, with Dusk and Jessica voting for Gail and the four Millennial men sending home Peter when Mac used his idol.

Fabian made a Final Three deal with Mac and Igor, with the boys continuing their strong bond. On Day 28, Aura moved back to the Millennials Alliance. However, The Gen X Three convinced Dusk to join their alliance. Fabian, Mac and Igor voted for Gabe, but the Gen X Alliance voted out Aura for switching her allegiance. The Millennials alliance was clearly falling apart, with most members joining the Gen Xers. Fabian and the Millennials felt that the biggest reason for this was Mac and his want to play big. At tribal, they voted for him. but he used another idol. With the only other votes that counted for Mac and the Gen X Three, Gabe was voted out and followed shortly by Jessica.

Realising that they know held the majority, Fabian convinced Igor, Mac and Dusk to vote together and send home Gail. The Millennial Mens Alliance continued to work together and joined forces with Tasha and Patricia to unanimously send home Dusk at their next tribal council. All seemed well with Fabian and the men. When Tasha won the Final Five immunity challenge, Fabian and Igor thought it was clear that Patricia would be voted out. This proved to not be the case because Mac convinced Tasha and Patricia to vote with him and Fabian was made the ninth member of the jury. At the Final Tribal Council, he voted for Igor to win the title of Sole Survivor.

## Survivor: Island of the Idols

In his second appearance, Fabian competed on *Survivor: Island of the Idols* originally on the orange Lairo tribe. He was sent to the Island of the Idols by Vokai, where he met *Survivor: Caramoan* winner Bianca and found an idol with her. Feeling more confident when he returned to the Lairo camp, Fabian formed a majority of six with Emma, Jaclyn, Jose, Sasha and Tatianna. At the tribes first two losses, they eliminated strategic threat Michelle and her ally Chad. Lairo then won the remaining two immunity challenges they had together. Though he considered sharing information about his idol to his allies, Fabian kept it to himself in case they decided to turn on him.

At the Tribe Switch on Day 13, Fabian was switched to the purple Vokai tribe along with original tribe members Emma, Jaclyn and Tatianna. Fabian and Tatianna were quickly put on the outs of the new Vokai when Emma and Jaclyn jumped ship to fellow Old Schoolers Bethany, Penny and their ally Ellis. In response, Fabian and Tatianna bonded with Dre whilst wanting Ellis to flip on the women. After their first loss, the trio knew that Ellis wouldn't budge and they responded by throwing him under the bus to the Old Schoolers. At tribal council, Fabian played his idol for Tatianna (whom he thought the Old Schoolers were targeting) and voted for Ellis with his allies. However, the Old Schoolers thought Fabian was less likely to have an idol and voted for him. With his idol wasted on Tatianna, Fabian could only watch as he became the fifth person voted out on Day 15.
