Brandan

Brandan was a Contestant on Trinity Survivor: Nonary Game.

An aggressive & ruthless player from the very start, he become leader of the Jirenma tribe, dominating strategically, however his cutthroat gameplay, made him a target and after brutally blindsiding Zac, everyone saw him as the biggest threat, voting him off at the next tribal, his gameplay earned him Villain of the Season.

## Nonary Game

Starting on the Jiremna tribe, Brandan quickly integrated himself into the middle of the tribe, establishing himself as one of the leaders along with Tyler. A hard worker, Brandan consistently performed well in challenges throughout the pre-merge, helping with the early game dominance of OG Jiremna. Brandan also was a pivotal part of the Bracelet twist, managing to reach door 9 with JJ, Marvyn, Tyler, and Carson, convincing them to hand him the Hidden Immunity Idol hidden behind the door. Losing only one challenge throughout the pre-merge, where Sunshine was easily picked off at Tribal Council, Brandan remained in a position of power throughout the rest of the time on OG Jiremna.

During the swap, Brandan was a part of a majority of him/JJ/Marvyn/Zac/Carson, with Justin and Kynzee from OG Bitoku being placed in the minority. Despite avoiding the first two tribal councils post swap due to immunity wins. Nu-Jiremna was forced to go to tribal council during the double tribal. Wanting to keep Justin around due to his lack of connection with Kynzee, Brandan got his tribe to vote Kynzee over Justin, despite most of his allies' wishes to keep Kynzee in the game.

Coming into the merge, Tyler's leaks to OG Bitoku put a target on Brandan's back as a huge threat. However, Brandan's connection from the other side, Callum, helped steer the votes away from him. Anticipating an idol being played on the Jirenma's target, Michael, Brandan played his idol on himself but watched as Marvyn was sent home. Coming into the Final 9, Carson leaked to Brandan plans from individuals in OG Jiremna to target him. Enraged, Brandan orchestrated a hit on Zac due to his central position in the group of Zac/John/JJ/Justin, roping in people from both Jiremna and Bitoku for the blindside. Zac planned to play his idol on Brandan due to Justin's targeting of Brandan to gain trust. Despite the kind gesture, Brandan went full steam ahead with the blindside, having lost all faith in Zac. Zac ended up playing the idol on Brandan, as Brandan then proceeded to dab on Zac's elimination in one of the most brutal blindsides in Trinity's Survivor history.

After Zac's elimination, Brandan tried to downplay the backlash surrounding Zac's blindside and attempted to soothe the burnt feelings of JJ and Justin. However, Brandan's target had grown too much for him to manage, as his safety nets fell out from under him. When he lost immunity to JJ that round, the tribe united against Brandan for being too big of a threat, combined with his aggressive gameplay, and he was subsequently voted off and sent to the jury.

At Final Tribal Council, Brandan grilled John about his handling of the Jason and Calum eliminations. Brandan also grilled JJ about his reliance on immunity wins and his decision to bring John to an end instead of Carson. Brandan ended up voting for JJ, having developed more of a connection with him than John, and feeling that JJ had played a great endgame.
