Damien Thomlinson

**Damien Thomlinson** is a contestant from *Australian Survivor: Champions v Contenders* (2018).

The first amputee *Australian Survivor* contestant, Damien was usually respected by his tribemates for his strong work ethic and kind-hearted persona. Unfortunately, his tribemates feared this would make him a threat down the line, resulting in his elimination over Jackie Glazier.

## Profile

*Retrieved from 10play.com.au*

**Age:** 36
**Occupation:** Former Special Forces Commando
**State:** NSW
**Tribe:** Champions​​​​​

If there has ever been anyone able to be labelled a Survivor, it's Damien. A former commando in the army, he is now an athlete and best-selling author.

When Damien joined the Australian Defence Force at just 24, he qualified as an elite commando and fought in Afghanistan. In 2009, his vehicle drove over an improvised explosive planted by the Taliban, resulting in an explosion that saw Damien lose both of his legs and other extensive damage to his body.

"I now get around on two special prosthetic legs but the recovery from the injury was very hard. I'm stubborn and tough but it has made me refocus on what I want to do with my life. My life post-injury is one of constant focus on my physical and mental health."

Since recovering from his injury, Damien competed in two Invictus Games in wheelchair basketball. He has also walked the Kokoda Track and competed in numerous sporting competitions. He even took up para snowboarding nearly qualifying for the 2014 Olympic Games.

Damien has written a best-selling biography and appeared in the Mel Gibson war film, Hacksaw Ridge. Being an inspiration to so many people, Damien knows that he wants to give back whenever he can and is doing it for his fellow special forces mates.

"Taking part in this is bigger than me. I am doing it to prove to the boys that they didn't go through what we went through for nothing. I am passionate about this and want to win it for them."

Hōzuki’s Mantle

**Hōzuki’s Mantle** is a Water Element technique.

This technique creates a 270-degree dome of water in a 2-metre radius centred on the user’s centre of gravity, with the open section facing directly forwards. The dome has deflecting properties, and tendrils of water lash out from it randomly, making it difficult to attack the user from anywhere but the front. The user reduces enemy multiple combatant bonuses by 1 die per level, and gains +1 die per 3 levels to any close-combat skill.

However, the dome is fully opaque, and the user and anyone on the other side have 0 Awareness with respect to each other. In addition, the dome is slow to move or rotate, imposing a Tactical Movement penalty of 15 – (level x ½) on the user.

It cannot be chakra boosted.

## Plot

Gōketsu Noburi learned it as part of a reward for successfully completing the mission to capture Arikada alive.

Final Immunity Challenge

The **Final Immunity Challenge** is a key individual Immunity Challenge in *Survivor*.

Held on the penultimate day of the game, it is the last Immunity Challenge of the season and guarantees the winner a seat at the Final Tribal Council. It also gives the winner an advantage in selecting their opponent/s for the Final Tribal Council. This is particularly true of seasons featuring a Final Two, as the challenge winner is the only person to cast a vote at Tribal Council. It is typically an endurance challenge, requiring the contestants to literally outlast the competition.

She became a target of Team Uplift after the disaster in Hot Spring.

While she was successful at hitting a member of Team Uplift, her attempt to escape ultimately failed.

She was then interrogated for purposes unknown, while her one victim recovered in the hospital.

The capture made Jiraiya happy and he even let the team inside Leaf.

Chakra

**Chakra** is the basis for all ninja magics, although it is not theoretically exclusive to only ninjas. Around the time of the Sage, which was about thousand of years ago, chakra was either created or discovered. Humans used human chakra or just chakra. Nature chakra exists, but is not normally used by humans due in part to its lethality.

Chakra-conductive metals exists, is used for constructing weapons, and is crazy expensive.

Only very few humans are able to use chakra, and those who do are usually called ninja, and they used it exclusively for warfare and powerful civilians usually opposed its use for economic benefit. Samurai used to exists, but they are all but wiped out.

Isan is probably the only ninja village that developed jutsu for anything other than warfare, such as Elemental Mastery which cool and heat up an area.

There are various disciplines of chakra, they are: taijutsu, genjutsu, Sealing, and ninjutsu.

Georgia Ray

**Georgia Jane Ray** is a contestant from *Australian Survivor: Brains v Brawn*.

When her ally Joey McCann was blindsided, Georgia was relegated to the minority on the Brains tribe. Her position failed to recover after the tribe switch, thanks to Cara Atchison and George Mladenov flipping over to the Brawn alliance. After being briefly removed from the game due to illness, Georgia became the first person to miss a Tribal Council due to medical intervention. Upon her return, Georgia was swiftly voted out by the majority alliance after her tribe lost another Immunity Challenge.

Kate Tatham

**Kate Tatham** is a contestant from *Australian Survivor: Blood v Water*.

In addition to losing her brother Andy Meldrum at the very start, Kate was left out of much of her tribe's strategic discussion early on. She wound up standing out for her weak performance in challenges, and even with David Goodchild putting a target on his own back with his hostility toward Sam Gash at Tribal, she was eliminated with only three votes against her when David played his idol to save himself.

After Kate pushed Andy to apply for Template:S, not only is it Andy's shot at redemption, but Kate hopes to make her own mark on the game.
Caring and selfless, Kate is used to doing everything for her family but is now taking a chance on herself, determined to make her first time playing the game count.
**What is your *Survivor* game plan?**
 think my game plan is to not have a game plan. Being flexible and adaptable in my daily thought process while playing *Survivor* will hopefully get me through the game.
**How do you think the experience will bring you closer?**
I think this will bring us closer and for my kids, it's a lifetime worth of Christmas lunch memories and conversations to be had. My goal is to be out in an environment that challenges all facets of me! And I can't wait.

## Australian Survivor

Kate was initially placed on the Blood tribe, with her brother Andy Meldrum, who was assigned to Water. After her brother was the first person voted out, her tribemates targeted Kate, knowing how Andy played in his first season. On Day 7, after the Blood tribe lost their first Immunity Challenge, Kate felt vulnerable as no one talked strategy with her all day. Kate joined the majority of the tribe to vote out David Goodchild, however David used an Hidden Immunity Idol to negate the votes against him. As three votes were casted against Kate, she was eliminated from the game.

### Voting History

**^1** In "Episode 3", David used a Hidden Immunity Idol, negating Kate's vote against him.

## Trivia

Whisper on the Winds

**Whisper on the Winds** is an elemental justu that creates an isolated pathway through which sound may be transmitted to a target. Use to deliver a verbal message which only the target can hear. Higher levels expand the technique's reach and the maximum length of the message. Line of sight is not required, but you must know the target's vague location, and an excessively complicated path to the target will block the technique.

Perfect Game

## *Survivor* Gameplay

### Description

A term describing a Sole Survivor who never received a vote against them and then received all votes at the Final Tribal Council in a single season.

### Appearances

None

The **Perfect Game** is a rare feat in *Survivor* gameplay, and has never been achieved in *Australian Survivor*. It is achieved when a Sole Survivor receives no elimination votes, and then receives a unanimous jury vote at the Final Tribal Council in a single season.

Because of the ambiguous definition of "no elimination votes" in seasons in which Hidden Immunity Idols are in play, some definitions of the term do not consider elimination votes voided by an idol as votes received by the player.

## List of Sole Survivors by Closeness to Perfect Game

Per this wiki's definition of "votes received", votes voided by Hidden Immunity Idols and votes received at revotes are listed in the column but footnoted.

## Trivia

* The closest a Sole Survivor has been to a perfect game is Liz Parnov in *Heroes v Villains*, who only received two Tribal Council votes in the entire season, and won the jury vote unanimously.
* Shane Gould in *Champions v Contenders* (2018) played the most "imperfect" game of any Sole Survivor, receiving 14 votes against her: 10 votes throughout the game (3 of which were voided by a Hidden Immunity Idol), and 4 votes lost at the Final Tribal Council.
	+ Guy Leech in *Celebrity Survivor Australia* and Mark Wales in *Blood v Water* played the most "imperfect" games of any male Sole Survivors, receiving 8 votes against them: Guy received 6 votes throughout the game, and 2 votes lost at the Final Tribal Council, while Mark received 8 votes throughout the game (3 of which were voided by a Hidden Immunity Idol), and won the jury vote unanimously.
* Three Sole Survivors have received all of the jury votes at the Final Tribal Council of their season, but received at least one vote against them at a prior Tribal Council.
	+ Pia Miranda received 8 votes against her during *Champions v Contenders* (2019).
	+ Mark Wales received 8 votes against her during *Blood v Water*, although 3 of these votes were voided by the use of a Hidden Immunity Idol.
	+ Liz Parnov received 2 votes against her during *Heroes v Villains*.
* Pia Miranda and Hayley Leake hold the distinction of being the Sole Survivors that had the possibility of a perfect game diminished earliest in the game, receiving 3 votes and 1 vote respectively on Day 2, both during the first Tribal Council.
Water

* Day 15

**Water** is a tribe from Template:S. Their tribe color is blue.

Challenge

## *Survivor* Gameplay

### Description

Competitions in *Australian Survivor* where the contestants convene and battle for a certain prize, whether it is for comforts or safety from elimination.

### Appearances

Every season

**Challenges** are competitions in *Australian Survivor* where the contestants convene and battle for a certain prize, whether it is for creature comforts or safety from elimination.

## About

Each episode generally contains one or two challenges. An Immunity Challenge occurs every episode, whether individual or tribal, and commonly a Reward Challenge. Challenges can be physical or mental in nature, and provide prizes, in the form of a reward or immunity from the next vote, to the victorious contestant(s).

## Behind The Scenes

The tribes convene at the challenge area, starting with the tribe that won the previous Immunity Challenge, then followed by the tribe that lost a member at the previous Tribal Council. This is to extract suspense to the tribe that won the last Immunity Challenge.

After giving the instructions of the challenge, the host would give them a further rundown of the challenge (which usually happens off screen) before they strategise. When the tribes strategise, they would assign certain tasks to members, while also deciding which tribe members will be sitting out, if the tribe has more members than the rival tribe. In uncommon situations, both tribes sit out tribe members.

If the challenge is individual-based, the castaways would draw rocks to determine their spots in the challenge.

Contestants are obliged to participate in challenges. If a tribe or single player does not want to participate in a challenge, they are breaching their contract (*see Survivor Rulebook*). As a solution, they purposefully lose to the rival tribe. There have been a few instances of tribes who threw challenges because they want to eliminate an unliked contestant, while players who refuse to do a challenge are still to participate.

## Types of Challenges

### Combined Reward/Immunity Challenge

There have been a few instances post-merge where the winner(s) are granted both a reward and immunity from the next vote.

## Trivia

* Kadina is the first *Australian Survivor* tribe to win a challenge.
	+ Tipara is the first tribe to lose a challenge.
Benji Wilson

**Benji Wilson** is a contestant from *Australian Survivor: Champions v Contenders* (2018).

While initially overshadowed by bigger personalities within the Contenders tribe, Benji proved to be a strong strategic threat that led the charge for numerous blindsides, most notably those of Tegan Gasior, Samuel Hinton and Mat Rogers. Openly playing both sides of each tribe he was on, Benji's deceitful reputation eventually caught up to him and, at the final eight, he was blindsided in a 5-1 vote following a tie between himself and Sharn Coombes.

## Profile

*Retrieved from 10play.com.au*

**Age:** 26
**Occupation:** Entrepreneur
**State:** VIC
**Tribe:** Contenders​​​​​

Even though Benji refers to himself as the happiest person you will ever meet, he plans to be anything but a pushover on *Survivor*.

"I want to be a heroic villain. There is no likeable hero who can coast all the way to the end and win with loyalty and mateship. In order to win, you need to play a strategic game.

"I am going to be extremely likeable and perform well in challenges for my tribe but hidden behind my high performance and fun, goofy exterior will be some very villainous moves. The best way to ensure you are safe is to cause chaos in another section of camp. Just because I will do anything to achieve that won't necessarily make me a heartless villain, I will just be a great game player."

Highly intelligent and competitive, Benji says he is a self-made millionaire working in some of the biggest places in the world from New York to Brazil. One to take chances, he moved to Brazil on a one-way flight and found out quickly that he needed to make some money.

"I hustled. I immediately took on four different jobs, learnt algorithms and went onto become a bestselling author by paying other people to write books for me then used my marketing skills to sell them under my name. I even booked speaking gigs at universities in the US. I've never looked back and now run multiple businesses that bring in over one million dollars, just four years later."

Playing to win, Benji wants to take out the prize not only to prove he can but to help a charity that he founded called 10 Million Meals. "I will feed two million kids, I am determined to and winning the money would be a huge help towards that. I can and will win *Survivor*!"

Living Roots

**Living Roots** is an Earth Element technique. This technique requires that the user be in physical contact with the ground. It renders the user able to sense and interpret vibrations, such as those made by walking, allowing the user to make an Alertness roll even where a target is unavailable to conventional senses, or bonus to the Alertness roll. The target must also be touching the ground, and must be moving. If successful, the user learns (and can thence keep track of) the target’s position.

While the user remains motionless, the technique grants a flat bonus to Alertness equal to 3xEffect. While moving, this bonus is reduced to 1xEffect.

Note that if you are unaware of a target and it is outside the reach of your conventional senses (e.g. silent and in a different room), you will receive the bonus when rolling to detect it, but not the benefit of your normal Alertness dice.

## Applications and Plot

Gōketsu Hazō learned the technique as part of a reward on completing the Arikada capture mission.
Sharni Vinson

**Sharni Vinson** is a contestant from *Australian Survivor: Heroes v Villains*.

During her short stint in the game, Sharni shared a strong friendship with the Heroes' paternal figure, Gerry Geltch. However, short on allies, her game quickly unraveled after Paige Donald accused her of throwing an Immunity Challenge. Fellow Heroes outsider Benjamin Law seized the opportunity to throw Sharni under the bus. After Benjamin campaigned against her at Tribal Council and played his Hidden Immunity Idol, Sharni was blindsided.

## Profile

*Retrieved from 10play.com.au*

From LA to the beaches of Samoa, Sharni goes into each adventure with an open attitude and this adventure won't be any different. She says, "I've never been more ready for a show like this. I'm not planning on coming in and being Sharni, the actress. This is an opportunity for me to actually remove myself from the actress side and bring to light Sharni, the person."

Growing up as a state swimmer and dancer, Sharni loves doing her own stunts at work so is excited by the physical element of *Australian Survivor: Heroes V Villains*. But she's also excited to put her social strength of being 'the mole' to good use. Sharni says, "My friends call me the mole. Just try and keep a secret from me, I will always find out. I'm looking forward to using my inner mole in this environment to find out all the information about everyone. Hopefully where there's some hidden Idols too, the mole will find them."

As someone who is always up for an adventure, Sharni has always wanted to play the game and has no fear of sleeping on the beach or living in the elements. She is hoping all the sides of her personality will be useful in her gameplay and her honesty will help her make and keep alliances.

"Of course, there are going be those moments where it will hurt me to vote people off, that is part of the game, but I'm not trying to come in here and be really anything other than who I am."

Double Tribal Council

The **Double Tribal Council** is a *Survivor* twist where two tribes each vote out a member one after the other, on the same night. Oftentimes, individual immunity is offered to contestants, with reward sometimes offered to the winners.

It is not to be confused with a Double Elimination, where one tribe votes out two members, nor with a Joint Tribal Council, where two tribes attend Tribal Council together as one group.

## Appearances

### *Australian Survivor* (2016)

In Episode 5, both losing tribes attended Tribal Council; second place would typically be immune under the three-tribe format. It was revealed after both Saanapu and Vavau voted, the person they voted out from their tribe would be instead sent to the opposite tribe. The castaways voted out from their tribe would bring one contestant with them. Vavau voted off Nick Iadanza, who brought Tegan Haining to Saanapu. The Saanapu vote was more complicated, with Conner Bethune and Flick Egginton tied on both the first vote and the revote. Connor was chosen by consensus, and he brought Sam Webb to Vavau.

### *Australian Survivor: All Stars*

In Episode 8, it was revealed at the Immunity Challenge that both tribes would be going to Tribal Council, and each tribe was playing for individual immunity. Brooke Jowett won individual immunity for Vakama while Jacqui Patterson won it for Mokuta. At Tribal Council, Jonathan revealed one final twist: the two contestants voted off their tribe would receive one final lifeline. They would duel in a fire-making challenge, with the winner returning to their tribe. Vakama sent Lydia Lassila and Mokuta sent Phoebe Timmins. During the challenge, Phoebe won the challenge, sending Lydia home.

### *Australian Survivor: Brains v Brawn*

In Episode 9, Brains and Brawn competed in a combined Reward/Immunity Challenge, where the two tribemates who finishes first for each tribe would both go on a reward and be immune for the next Tribal Council. Emmett Pugh and Rachel Downie won for Brains while Andrew Ucles and Wai Chim won for Brawn. At Tribal Council, Brains voted for Laura Wells while Brawn voted for Shannon Lawson. The four immune players then had to unanimously decide who to eliminate out of Laura and Shannon, choosing Shannon.
Sam Schoers

**Samantha "Sam" Schoers**(often referred to as **Sammy**) is a contestant from *Australian Survivor: Champions v Contenders* (2019).

Initially in a safe spot on the Contenders tribe as one of their strongest women, Sam was blindsided after being switched to the Champions tribe, when Daisy Richardson targeted her in an attempt to weaken Andy Meldrum's influence on the game.

## Profile

**VIP Gaming Manager, 30**

A former flight attendant on private jets and now a VIP Gaming Manager for the country's biggest casinos, Sam is responsible for the biggest players and making sure they are looked after. So if there's anything Sam knows, it's how to socialise and win people over.

"I'm mentally very resilient but I mostly know how to get what I need from people, how to make people feel comfortable and I have a big social strength."

Sam's no stranger to TV after coming second on *The Amazing Race Australia* but *Survivor* has been on her bucket list for a long time saying; "*Survivor* has been an itch I've needed to scratch. The ultimate Survival game. It's the next best thing to my favourite trilogy, The Hunger Games."

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of two of her favourite players, Sarah from Season 2 and Shonee from last year's *Champions V Contenders*, Sam hopes other players will underestimate her giving her a stronger chance of making the final two.

She believes her fellow players won't see her coming and hopes that if she trusts her gut, she'll make it all the way.

ET Ettingshausen

**Andrew "ET" Ettingshausen** is a contestant from *Australian Survivor: Champions v Contenders* (2019).

Despite being a well-respected member of his tribe, ET was stuck in the minority early, after the Sporty Seven Alliance crumbled following Susie Maroney's blindside. Eventually, close ally Simon Black was viewed as much more valuable by the majority alliance, and ET was sent home after an emotional Tribal Council.

## Profile

*Retrieved from 10play.com.au*

**NRL Legend, 53**

When you think of NRL, Andrew Ettingshausen (ET) is one of the biggest names in the sport's recent history. Renowned as one of the best NRL players of our time, ET played 328 games for the Cronulla Sharks over 18 years.

The longevity of his career and his contribution to the NRL has cemented his status as a legend of the game and was awarded the Daly M Centre of the Year Award in 1994 and 1996.

Living in The Shire in Sydney and the father of four girls, ET now spends most of his time out on the water with his own fishing TV series (Escape With ET) which airs on Network 10.

The thrill of a new challenge like *Survivor* definitely caught his attention saying; "I never thought I would ever have the chance to go on *Survivor*. Playing in the Champions team is awesome and to me this is a once in a lifetime opportunity."

ET also loves an adventure and has spent years cave diving, hang gliding, paragliding and trekking all over the world. Hoping to emulate some of the loyalty traits of players like Mat Rogers and Lee Carseldine, ET says; "I think if you show you have played the game 100% by winning challenges, helping your team mates, getting involved around camp, then you can win it."
