Natvivor: The Elysian Fields

***Natvivor: The Elysian Fields***, also known as ***Natvivor: The Elysian Fields—All-Stars***, (originally dubbed as ***Survivor: The Elysian Fields***) is the seventh season of *Natvivor*.

## Twists/Changes

* **All-Stars**: A cast of twenty-one former castaways returned for another shot at the title of Sole Survivor.
* **Three Tribes**: For the first time, three tribes will compete starting at the beginning of the season instead of the normal two. Each tribe consisted of seven members each.
* **Hidden Immunity Idol**
	+ **Offered at the Survivor Auction**: At the Survivor Auction, a public Hidden Immunity Idol, in which everyone would know about, was up for bidding.
* **Purgatory**: On Day 7, all of the remaining eighteen castaways temporarily came together onto one beach and would later be sorted into tribes in the following days to come.
* **Tribe Switch**: After the Purgatory twist, the Aeneas​ tribe was dissolved and the eighteen remaining castaways were spread across the two remaining tribes on Day 9. Another switch occurred on Day 14, reintroducing the previously dissolved tribe and shuffling the remaining fifteen players into three tribes of five.
* **Double Tribal Council**: Shortly after the Tribe Switch on Day 9, the newly formed Deucalion​ and Hyllus​​​​ tribes were subjected to a Double Tribal Council, where both tribes would go to Tribal Council separately, and two players would be voted out.
* **Delayed Jury Phase**: Rather than having the jury phase start when there were thirteen players left in the game, the jury phase was pushed back to start when there were eleven players in the game.
* **Extra Vote**: One of the items in the *Survivor Auction*, an advantage that allowed its user the right to vote twice at the same Tribal Council.
* **Curse**: As one of the items in the *Survivor Auction*, a castaway would receive a curse, which gave the player the option to lose the ability to vote at the next Tribal Council, or keep the ability to vote but receive a vote against themselves in exchange. If the castaway with the curse survives said Tribal Council, they get to pass on towards another player.
* **Returned to Final Three format**: The Final Three format, which was swapped out for a Final Two in the previous season, was reinstated this season. This time, said finalists would be facing a jury of eight.
