Leshawna

Leshawna is a contestant from Survivor: The Australian Outback.

Leshawna was very strategic throughout the pre-merge of The Australian Outback. She founded a few alliances and was in an extremely good position going into the merge. However, things changed when the balance of power shifted and Heather formed majority alliances which completely isolated Leshawna and as she knew how big of a threat she was. Heather also took Leshawna's original allies away from her. This sparked a huge rivalry which lasted until Heather managed to get rid of Leshawna in 8th place.

## The Australian Outback

In episode 1, Leshawna was placed on the dominating Ogakor tribe and helped to construct a shelter. The first challenge rolls around and the Ogakor tribe win by a mile. Leshawna, knowing how important allies are in this game, bonds with Sam and ends up forming an alliance with both Sam and Sadie to get an early advantage in this game.

In episode 2, the tribe continues to dominate in both the reward and immunity challenges. Eva and Sadie bond strongly and want to form an alliance, Sadie wants Leshawna to be a part of it as she knows she is strong. This leads to Sadie asking Leshawna to dissolve the alliance with Sam and be a part of an alliance with her and Eva as Sam isn't a strong ally. Leshawna obliges and dissolves the alliance with Sam and forms a new one with Sadie and Eva.

In episode 3, the tribe continues to win both the reward and immunity challenges. Despite this, cracks in the tribe start to show as Leshawna and Lightning have a minor disagreement as Lightning was arguing with Ella earlier. Eva also feels that Leshawna cannot be trusted so leaves the alliance with Leshawna and Sadie.

In episode 4, the tribe continues their winning streak in both the reward and immunity challenges. Nothing much happens in this episode but as cracks are starting to show, Heather tries to calm people down by working hard at camp.

In episode 5, the tribes performance dips as they lose their first reward challenge but they still manage to win the immunity challenge. Eva now decides that Leshawna has proven herself trustworthy and joins back with the alliance of Sadie and Leshawna.

In episode 6, the tribe pick up their winning streak again winning both the reward and immunity challenges. They realize that the merge is coming up so they don't really do much in this episode.

In episode 7, the 8 original Ogakor and the 2 remaining Kucha tribe members merged into the Barramundi tribe. Heather immediately starts to gain control over the tribe by forming a majority alliance consisting of Cameron, Eva, Lightning and Sadie. Heather knows how much of a threat Leshawna is and wants to isolate her allies from her. Only an immunity challenge took place this episode and Sadie won. Luckily for Leshawna, Heather's alliance targets Ella as they can't stand her any longer. Leshawna unsuccessfully tries to convince Eva and Sadie to vote for Sam as he has won before. They don't listen and vote for Ella along with the alliance. Ella is voted off 5-4-1.

In episode 8, Leshawna begin to realize that she is at the bottom of the tribe and that Eva and Sadie are working with Heather. Infuriated, she confronts Sadie and a fight ensues which makes Leshawna leave the alliance with Eva and Sadie. Heather also forms a separate alliance with Brick and Gwen, the two original Kucha members to protect herself from all angles. This further worsens Leshawna's position. Leshawna, realizing how much she is in danger, manages to win the immunity challenge this episode, keeping her safe. The only other natural target for Heather's alliances is Sam as he isn't included in any alliances. Sam is voted off 6-3.

In episode 9, Leshawna knows that she is the next person gone if she does not win immunity. She wins the reward challenge this episode with Eva as they were a pair. Despite this, during the immunity challenge, she loses to Heather despite her best efforts. Heather finally gets her way and votes out her biggest threat Leshawna in a 6-2 vote.
