Tris

**Tris** is a contestant from Tropic Survivor: Kauai.

## Cast Assessment

Tris is an incredibly optimistic person with a positive outlook on life. She’s extremely extroverted and will use that quality to establish a great social game. You can expect Tris to become a camp favorite due to her personality and teamwork skills, and potentially even a fan favorite as the season progresses. She loves being part of a group and doing her part to get things done. Tris will thrive in the tribal portion of this game, but whether or not she’ll make it to and do well in the merge is up for debate. However one thing is for sure, If she doesn’t end up winning the season, she will be remembered.

## Kauai

Despite having a somewhat lackluster social game within the Kai tribe, Tris had a lot to offer in other aspects of the game. More specifically in the challenges. At the start of each challenge Shaun and Tris would do a lot of strategizing and organizing which ended up being a large part of the Kai tribe’s success before the swap.

After the swap Tris’ relationship with Shaun grew stronger and was her best angle moving forward in the game as they were both swapped onto an evenly split Lā tribe with Raini. They were pretty much forced to work with each other in this stalemate situation but it remains unclear if they were actually going to vote with each other or if one of them was going to flip. Due to key contributions from many members of the tribe, including Tris, they were able to avoid tribal council up until the merge.

When the merge came the original Kai tribe members naturally came back together with their 5-4 numbers advantage. However, there was more going on underneath what appeared at the surface. They were successful in eliminating Logan, their initial target due to his more visible leadership status among the original Lā tribe members, but a sixth vote on Logan made things much more complicated. With their being six votes in total on Logan it was clear that someone from the Lā tribe had been clued into the vote. Since Kaden had just survived three tribal councils on the new Kai tribe despite being in a minority it quickly became apparent that it was him and he had a tighter relationship with Alyssa and Jacob than what was initially expected.

At the final eight Shaun and Tris wanted to make a move against Kaden in an effort to keep the original Kai tribe members strong. However, Jacob and Kaden had their own plans. With Alyssa still in their corner, they were able to flip Raini as well due to Jacob’s initial connection to him during the early days on the Kai tribe. This left the the vote at a 4-4 tie with tension that lead to a rather heated discussion between Raini and Tris at tribal council. But ultimately Shaun was eliminated after Kaden played his idol. Having just lost her main ally, Tris entered the final seven determined but not too confident. After her argument with Raini there was no way she would be able to flip him, which meant her only hope was to continue working with Aidan and Velma and try to flip Alyssa. They were unsuccessful in doing so, resulting in Velma’s elimination.

Come final six, after Aidan won immunity it was do or die. Tris needed to flip someone from the foursome in order to have any chance of staying. After two tribal councils something finally shook. Aidan and Tris were able to convince Alyssa to flip to their side to force a 3-3 tie at the vote. Both sides were willing to go to rocks, which would’ve left Alyssa, Jacob and Raini in danger of getting rocked out. But after Alyssa didn’t want to take the risk Tris was eliminated 3-1 on the revote.
