**Cody Conroy** was the Sole Survivor of Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains, a contestant on Survivor: One World, the Player of the Season and a contestant on Survivor: Blood vs. Water: Redemption Island, and was a contestant on Survivor: Legends.
Known for his phenomenal game in Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains, Cody was able to slide his way through alliances and blindsides to gain control of the game that helped him get the win. In Survivor: One World, Cody would be able to blend himself in against his competition and get very close to the win.

## Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains

Cody showed a bit of shock at the unexpected tribal lines not being drawn at the preconceived Heroes vs. Villains. However, he would not let this get to him. Cody would be placed onto the Rojo Tribe, where he would immediately bond with his tribemates and help to paint the target on Seth and Bailey, who were already on the outs due to their preexisting relationship. No one would have to worry about this playing out quite yet though, as the Rojo Tribe would win the first immunity challenge of the season, keeping them safe from the first tribal council of the season. Unfortunately, they would lose the next immunity challenge, and the lines were drawn quickly. Cody and the rest of his tribe knew what was about to occur. Their preconceptions were correct, and Seth was voted out in a 6-2 vote, the other two votes going to his ally Kyle.

Cody would see himself get swapped back onto the Heroes Tribe with Kyle, Darius, Jake, Bailey, Bri, and Kaleb. They would win the next immunity challenge, and Cody would begin to get good information on how everyone was on the Azul Tribe before the swap. After the Heroes Tribe lost the next immunity challenge, he would consider working with Jake and Kaleb for that next tribal council in order to get out Bailey, who he still felt was the bigger threat over Kaleb. Cody would not be shocked with the results, even though he was on the wrong side of the vote as he watched Kaleb get sent out in a 4-3 vote. The Heroes Tribe would win the final tribal immunity challenge of the season, guaranteeing Cody to see the merge.

Cody would be elated to make the merge, and he wasted no time mingling and making a Final 2 deal with Christian to ensure his safety. At the first individual immunity challenge, an offer was made to the contestants, give up your spot in the first individual immunity challenge of the season, and get an advantage. Cody and Bri both wanted to do this, and after a draw between the both of them, Bri came out victorious, and Cody would get no shot at immunity. However, Cody would use this time to find a hidden immunity idol while the others were at the challenge, and he would keep this to himself for as long as he could. Cody would find himself to be at a perfect spot once again, as he had people come up to him about the vote and with how they now saw Bri as a bigger threat then they did before due to her advantage. Cody would help the others blindside Connor at the next tribal council in a 10-1 vote. After losing the next individual immunity challenge to Darius, Cody would be one of the few people in a group approached by Christian to turn the vote from Kathy to Bri, as they felt that Kathy's hidden immunity idol being known to everyone was not as bad as Bri's advantage being unknown. Cody and Christian would then discuss the hidden immunity idols and the information they had with them.

Knowing that there were four hidden immunity idols in play during that season, Cody and Christian both determined that there was a possibility of their ally, Jake, being in possession of the fourth one that they could not find. At tribal council, Cody would help vote Bri out of the game, as he felt that she was the most threatening person going forward in the game. After being informed that the next tribal council would occur only mere minutes after Bri's voteoff, Cody immediately went and talked to the others to find out and help decide the vote. Cody once again was not at any risk whatsoever, and he would see Bailey get sent out of the game in an 8-1 vote. After Cody lost the next individual immunity challenge to Christian, he would be approached by JP, Kyle, and Jake, all of whom would have the intent on voting Kathy out. However, when later talking to Christian, Darius, and Jake, they would come up with a new plan to keep Kathy and hope she wastes her hidden immunity idol by playing it on herself, and then put all of their votes, plus Kyle's, onto Nathan, who was her closest ally left in the game. The purpose of this plan was to get Kathy to waste her hidden immunity idol and flush it out of the game, and then to have someone close to her get taken out of the game. The plan however, only partially worked. While Nathan was voted out of the game, the men could not convince Kathy to play her hidden immunity idol, keeping it in the game just a little bit longer than they had hoped for. After losing to Christian yet again in the next individual immunity challenge, Cody would find himself as one of the main targets for the first time in the game, as JP would be leading a charge to get him out for how under the radar he has been throughout the game. While this happened, Christian and Cody attempted to find the other hidden immunity idol, and they talked about the vote as well as the possibility of Jake having the other hidden immunity idol. Cody would get wind of what would be occurring around him, and he and Christian would set their sights on Jake. When Jake got wind of this, Cody and Christian suggested to Jake and Darius a deal, if the two wanted to keep Jake safe that tribal, then they would have to vote JP with them. Cody and Christian would get Jake to spill everything he was told about the vote, and Cody would get his way, as the four men would align together once more, and JP would be taken out of the game in a 4-3 vote.

Once Christian won his fourth individual immunity challenge in a row, Cody knew he was not at any sort of risk. He would immediately group himself, Christian, Kathy, and Kyle together after the individual immunity challenge to put a target on Jake. He would then go on to tell Darius and Jake to vote Kathy, and he claimed that Kathy and Kyle would put their votes on someone else, and he claimed there would be a 2-2-2 split at tribal to send Kathy or Kyle out of the game. However, he had different plans than what they thought. Cody would vote alongside Christian and Kathy and would help to blindside Jake with only three votes after Kathy finally used her hidden immunity idol. After Cody won the individual immunity challenge at the Final 5, he would be approached about the blindside on Christian. Confronted by a moral dilemma, he would consider his loyalties and Final 2 promise to Christian and the issues that would occur with taking him any further into the game. He would then vote alongside the others, and just to add a bigger name for himself in this blindside, Cody would play his hidden immunity idol on Darius, negating Christian's sole vote to eliminate Darius from the game. Cody then went on to win the Final Individual Immunity Challenge, and he once again would be faced with a dilemma. While he knew Kathy had a great underdog story that her many friends on the jury would appreciate, he and the others also recognized that Kyle had a pretty good social game and had also made a few friends along the way. Once Tribal Council came, he would vote alongside the other men to vote Kathy out of the game, as he knew she was ultimately his biggest obstacle going forward. It was at this point that Cody had secured himself to get to the Final Tribal Council, the end of a long game.

At the Final Tribal Council, Cody opened up about his gameplay by stating that he was on the right side of almost every vote and that he won individual immunity challenges when he needed to the most. Cody then went on to say that he was excited to hear everyone's questions for him and highly encouraged conversations with him. Although some people asked him in confusion or anger about their voteoffs and the reasons behind it, most notably including a frustrated Christian, others asked him more about what made his game different over Darius' and the thought processes behind other moves he made. Cody was able to calmly explain and maneuver his way through this intense interrogation from the jurors to separate his game from Darius' and to also give a lot of insight as to how he had a lot of control over his game. His answers also showed why he made most of the moves that he made during the game. This was just enough for him the get the votes of Christian, Jake, Bailey, and Bri, crowning him as the winner of *Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains*, placing 1st out of 16th.

## Survivor: One World

Cody would be brought in as a member of the Masterminds Tribe, as his previous game was very much more known for his strategic game. Despite his best efforts, the Masterminds would lose the first immunity challenge. However, his tribe would gain Kathy as a part of the season's first twist. He would waste no time attempting to align with Kathy and Devin, and the three of them, alongside Bailey and Jack, would target Ashley and vote her out of the game. The Masterminds Tribe would then win the next immunity challenge, and they would finally get some rest in the game.

After the swap, Cody, alongside Kathy, would get swapped onto the Black Team with Christian, Sam, and Seth. Cody would align immediately with Christian, and the reunited duo, alongside Kathy, devised a plan to separate the alliance of Sam and Seth where they would tell Sam to vote Seth, and then the three of them would vote for Sam. The trio prepared for Sam telling Seth that he was the vote. However, what they did not prepare for was either of Seth's idols that he would play for himself and Sam. He would end up still being safe, but he would end up losing his ally Christian in the process.

Despite a rocky start to the game, Cody would make the merge, and although he would not win the first individual immunity challenge, he would find the *Safety-without-Power* advantage and he would not waste an ounce of his time waiting to talk to the others about ideas for the vote. Cody would eventually go with the others and help to blindside Sam out of the game. Cody would gain much suspicion after this, as he and Seth locked the doors to one of the rooms to have a strategic talk after the merge, gaining the distrust of Devin and Jake almost immediately. However, his honesty and trustworthy game to that point was enough to keep him on the good side of both of the men. Cody would be the first one out of the next individual immunity challenge. Cody was then immediately approached by Seth, Devin, and Jake, and while Seth asked him to help him vote out Kathy, Devin and Jake accused him of throwing Devin's name out there, as well as having an idol he hid under his hat during the prior individual immunity challenge. Jake would then propose an alliance of himself, Cody, Devin, and Seth to help the four of them get to the Final 5. However, people became more and more aware that Cody had told a lot of people what they wanted to hear in terms of him wanting to vote with them for the upcoming tribal council. Cody would still be safe though, and would only receive Jack's vote at tribal council. However, he would lose another ally in the game, as Kathy would be sent out of the game after Jake used a hidden immunity idol to save Hunter from being eliminated.

Immediately after tribal council, it was revealed that Kathy gave Cody her special hidden immunity idol, that he could only play when there were ten or seven players left in the game, right before she left the game. After losing the next individual immunity challenge, Devin was quick to align with Cody to try to get Jake out of the game. Even though Cody was a large target still, Bailey would still campaign much on his behalf and with how she did not want to take him out, and Cody would reach out to her and say that if he survived that they should try to work together after that tribal council. Cody then revealed that he had the special hidden immunity idol he was willed with and he used it to save himself, saving himself from four votes and sending Jake out the door with the help of Devin and Bailey. After losing the next individual immunity challenge, Cody's *Safety-without-Power* was a huge topic of conversation, as many were preparing to either vote him off if he did not use it, or vote Seth out if he did use it. Cody would indeed use his advantage, and after an idol play from Seth, he would once again see another ally of his walk out of the game when Devin was blindsided by Seth's and Bailey's votes.

Although Cody did well, he would still lose the next individual immunity challenge to Jack. Cody would immediately give his respects to Seth and Bailey for their impressive games at that point and suggested they vote for Hunter, and after this he talked to Hunter and Jack to secure that their targets would be based on Seth. Cody was not at a crossroad with a game-changing choice, either take out Seth and break up the power couple of the season, or to take out the only other former winner in the game, Hunter, and try to get a better shot at the rest of the game. He ended up siding with Hunter, and luckily Jack decided to go with him, and the three of them were finally able to take out Seth in a 3-2 vote. Although Cody would come close, he would ultimately lose the Final Individual Immunity Challenge. He would immediately approach Hunter and Jack about the potential to get rid of Bailey, as he knew she would win against him in a heartbeat due to her surviving as long as she did. Unfortunately, he was not able to convince either of the men to save him, and he would find himself being the sixth and final member of the jury, placing 4th out of 12th.

At the Final Tribal Council, Cody congratulated the finalists and gave his respects to them. He gave his appraisal to Bailey for being able to make it to the end and play with Seth, as he called it out that playing as a duo made the game harder for the two of them. Cody would then ask Bailey about what conversation she thought made her game the most. Cody would vote for Bailey to win the game.

At the *Survivor: One World Reunion Episode*, Cody mentioned how they all recognized how big of a target they all were and expressed his surprise regarding the blindsides of the season. Cody later said that he regretted not voting Hunter at the Final 5, as he said he thought going against Hunter would have given him a better shot at the end of the game. Cody admitted Hunter had a great appeal as an alliance member and that he was very good at persuading people to work with him.

## Survivor: Blood vs. Water: Redemption Island

Cody would begin the game on Tribe Natalie, where he would help his tribe to find much success as his tribe won the first three immunity challenges. At camp, Cody would attempt to bond with everyone on his tribe, and would make an alliance with Breanne and another alliance with Corey and Nathan after he discovered Corey had found the hidden immunity idol. Although people recognized Cody's threat status, everyone would want to work with him as much as they wanted to get him out. However, Cody's concerns over Breanne would grow, and he would start talks about throwing challenges to get rid of Breanne.

A tribe swap would come in the way of this plan and would be a similar story for Cody, as he and the new Tribe Tyson would go on to win the next two immunity challenges. At camp, Cody would bond with Christian, despite their initial hesitancies to work with each other in the game. Cody would then continue to bond with his tribe, ensuring his safety as he entered the merge.

When Breanne returned to the game from Redemption Island, he would immediately link back up with her, and the two of them would approach Christian about a plan to get rid of Vin or Corey, seeing them and their alliance as a major threat in the future of the game. However, during this conversation, Christian would accidentally reveal where his true alliances lied as he told Cody and Breanne that he would not vote for Vin or Corey. Cody and Breanne would then lead a charge to target Christian, specifically approaching swing voters John, Lita, and Nathan to get them on board. This would end up being a success, as they had everyone on board before Breanne won the first individual immunity challenge of the season right before they rolled into an immediate tribal council where Christian would be blindsided in a 6-3-1-1 vote. However, his success would be short-lived, as he would soon be on the chopping block after Corey won the next individual immunity challenge. Cody would immediately strengthen his bond with Nathan and would target Breanne as the two former winners and allies would find themselves pitted against each other for survival. At tribal council, Cody would reign supreme, saving himself as Breanne would be eliminated in a 6-3 vote.

Cody would catch a break in the game as he won the next individual immunity challenge, saving himself but putting his ally, John, at risk. Cody and John would attempt to do their best to throw the target onto Corey, and he would even lie to Corey when approached by him and Vin in their attempts to save Corey, although Cody would not promise the duo that he would not vote for Corey. At tribal council, he would vote go ahead and vote for Corey, but would ultimately fail as Corey's hidden immunity idol play would save himself and would guarantee that Cody's worst case scenario would happen at that round. After losing individual immunity to Lita, Cody would once again attempt to drive a charge against Corey. However, tribal council would prove to be yet another failure for him, as Corey would once again play another hidden immunity idol on himself, sending Cody out of the game with only three votes against him. Cody would place 7th out of 14th and would become the fourth member of the jury

At the Final Tribal Council, Cody would congratulate the finalists and would point out how Vin and Em were a strong team, despite Vin coming off as cocky and arrogant, and asked Vin if he should give his vote to Em if Vin claimed that he never voted anyone he claimed to have targeted. Cody would then ask Em why her strategy should be rewarded over her boyfriend's strategy. Finally, Cody would give praise to Lea's quieter game and would give her credit for trying to not become a huge target at the beginning of the game, and he would give her an opportunity to answer what time in the game she took control of her fate instead of being dragged along as people claimed her to be. In the end, Lea would win Cody's admiration and vote as he hoped for his girlfriend to follow in his successes in the game with a win.
