Season 3: Camelot's Last Stand

After going to both the heavens and the underworld, the third season of Trevivor landed in old England and the realm of Camelot. On March 13th, 2021, 16 fresh-faced peasants signed up to prove their worthiness to King Arthur and his knights, and they were hit with an immediate surprise: two players from our past seasons were to join them as captains, looking for redemption after disappointing first appearances.

*As sixteen peasants gathered in Camelot, waiting for their game to begin, they were surprised by the appearance of two former contestants in **PYRO** and **CLAY**, who were to serve as captains on the season. They were then thrown for another loop as they were presented with a Day Zero twist, giving them to the opportunity to socialize with whoever they wanted before being sorted into tribes the next day. It was the two captains who drafted their tribes, and once they did the game fully got underway.*

***CLAY'S** Quimper tribe struggled mightily in challenges, going to tribal in each of the first three cycles. With **TANNER** and **SIMBA** spearheading a majority alliance that also included **HOPE**, **POLA**, and **XAVIER**, those left outside of it were in danger, and it was **MELAS**, **CLAY** and **TOMMY** who were eliminated (all unanimously) during this pre-swap portion of the game. On **PYRO'S** Stirling tribe, the only time they had to go to tribal was when they were forced to due to the F16 Wavelength challenge leading to a double tribal, and **OCTOBER** was eliminated unanimously. **PYRO, DAVON** and **IZ** all stood out as early contenders on Stirling. At F14 the peasants were swapped into two new tribes, and on Quimper 2.0 **TANNER** and **SIMBA** were swap-screwed, the only OG Quimpers on a tribe with five OG Stirlings. When **PYRO** beat **HIGH** in the F14 Hero challenge, **SIMBA** did his best to throw **TANNER** under the bus to save himself, but **ASHLEY** had been targeting him since the second they swapped due to seeing him as a liar, and **SIMBA** was indeed voted out. **TANNER**, however, made some good connections with the rest of the tribe, particularly with **IZ** and **SERRA**, and that became a new power trio on the tribe. On Stirling 2.0, after they were demolished in the F13 puzzle gauntlet, OG tribe lines again held firm, as the four OG Quimpers stuck together to vote out **SPIDER**, with **PYRO** and **DAVON** also voting with them to make it unanimous. However, things were shaken up when they again had to go to tribal at F12, as some of the OG Quimpers wanted to keep both **PYRO** and **DAVON** in the game in order to solidify a strong group of five heading into the merge. While **HOPE** initially wanted to vote out **XAVIER**, **REJ** pushed instead to vote out **POLA**, and this was agreed upon by everyone else on the tribe. **HOPE** still voted for **DAVON** with **POLA**, the first non-unanimous vote of the season, and she was rewarded by **POLA** giving her the Legacy Advantage. F11 saw the peasants given the opportunity to claim advantages in a modified Greed challenge, but no one grabbed anything until **SERRA** took the last item (a 50/50 Coin), sending Quimper 2.0 to tribal as part of their plan to unanimously vote out **RAVELT**.*

*Right before the merge, **SERRA** successfully pulled the sword from the stone in the safari, which gave her the OG Stirling idol. She then accidentally sent a message about this in her chat with **IZ** and **TANNER**, quickly deleting it but not before **TANNER** saw, though he didn't bring it up with her. **PYRO** missed her chance at the idol by mere minutes, but in her cross-tribe chat with **TANNER** theorized that **SERRA** had grabbed it after they shared both sides of their stories. When the merge did come, everyone wanted to stick with their swap tribe alliances, five on each side. **PYRO** looked to play double agent, scheming with **IZ, SERRA** and **TANNER,** and pretending that she (and one or two other Stirling 2.0 members) would vote for **DAVON**, when in reality all five of Stirling 2.0 would vote for **SERRA** due to her advantages, with **DAVON'S** Vote Shield making the vote 5-4. However, **ASHLEY** was very suspicious, and correctly deduced that **PYRO** and **DAVON** were working together on this, with **SERRA** as the one in real danger due to publicly winning the 50/50 Coin. She managed to convince **SERRA** that this was the case very close to the deadline, and **SERRA** played her idol at the vote-read. This caused **HOPE** to play her Legacy Advantage on **DAVON**, but auto-rocks were avoided because **HIGH** (stubbornly refusing to vote for **DAVON**) had thrown his vote on **REJ**, causing **REJ** to be eliminated 1-0 with nine nullified votes. The Tribute to Dan alliance (the five Quimper 2.0) stuck together the next vote, as while **PYRO** locked DMs causing a live tribal after the challenge, they all quickly voted for **DAVON**, with **SERRA** using an Extra Vote she had just found in the safari to cancel out **DAVON'S** Vote Shield and eliminate him 5-4.*

*Things were looking pretty bad for A New Hope (**HOPE**, **PYRO** and **XAVIER**), but prosperity was unexpectedly around the corner. First, **HOPE** pulled the sword from the stone, earning the OG Quimper idol, and then the trio convinced **HIGH** to flip, as he was feeling that he was on the bottom of the Tribute to Dan alliance. Due to **ASHLEY** insisting that they split votes between **PYRO** and **XAVIER**, they did not need to use **HOPE'S** idol to vote out **SERRA**, as she was eliminated 4-3-1. The fallout from this vote was big, as **ASHLEY** was furious with **HIGH**, her closest ally, for flipping without telling her beforehand, and she, **IZ** and **TANNER** were all very annoyed that **PYRO**, the clear biggest threat, was still in the game. Her threat level became even more clear when she was the first peasant to find the merge idol clue, though she discovered that she had to self-vote in order to claim it. In order to do this safely, she and **HOPE** concocted a plan where **HOPE** would give her her own idol, and then pretend like she wanted to flip, convincing everyone to vote for **PYRO** so they could idol out **IZ**. This began to gain some traction, but **ASHLEY** was again very suspicious, and after she also found the merge idol clue she realized that **PYRO** was going to self-vote and thus was having votes funnelled onto her. **HIGH**, meanwhile, had grown quite upset with the A New Hope trio, feeling like they were leaving him out of their plans after he had flipped to save them, and went back to Tribute to Dan. That foursome, with **ASHLEY'S** new intel, decided they had to switch the vote, deciding on **XAVIER**. It looked like they were set to regain control, but **PYRO** thwarted this partially by accident, as believing that **HIGH** was leading a big split, wanted to make sure that at least **HOPE** and **XAVIER** both survived, even if it meant she was the one eliminated. So, due to **HOPE** already having a Rock Amulet, she gave **HOPE'S** idol to **XAVIER** and told him to play it, which he did, causing **IZ** to be eliminated 2-1, and **PYRO** gaining a new idol through self-voting, which she immediately gave to **HOPE**. After **PYRO** then won Knight's Move for F6 immunity, the 3-3 split and **HOPE'S** idol meant that A New Hope would all be safe. The now despondent Tribute to Dan decided to vote for **HOPE**, but she idoled to cancel out their votes once again, and **ASHLEY** was eliminated 3-0 due to A New Hope seeing her as the biggest challenge threat of the other three.*

*Now in the minority, **TANNER** and **HIGH** looked to try and convince **HOPE** to flip on **PYRO** as she was the biggest threat, but **HOPE** did not want to do that at F5, feeling that she would be the next to go if she did. **PYRO** then won immunity once again to render the point moot, and **HIGH** was voted out 3-2 due to A New Hope seeing him as the bigger jury threat of the two. It looked like the trio might ride all the way to FTC together, but **TANNER** ruined that possibility by winning final immunity, guaranteeing himself a spot at FTC, and quickly voting for **PYRO**. While **XAVIER** initially wanted to sacrifice himself, **PYRO** refused this, wanting her two allies to go to FTC over her. In the end, **PYRO** was voted out 3-1 as she wanted, and our three finalists were **HOPE, TANNER** and **XAVIER**. At FTC, **TANNER'S** underdog story, good social bonds with a lot of the jury and strong FTC performance carried him to victory, as he won 5-2-0.*
