**Name:** Helix

**Between Mind and Heart, which group do you personally think you fit into better?** Mind for sure a million percent. I can be both though honestly. This is a rare theme for me where I fill both, it's really all about perspective, although I prefer Mind. Because I'm all about positivity and friendship, people might think I'm one of the "Heart"s but that ain't it at all chief, because that group is driven by emotion. The whole point I'm driving above is about rising above that Emotion that causes bitterness and ugliness and play a gool ol' rousing round of Survivor, that should just be a game of Perception, duality between shields and goats, threats and resumé, and allignment on common interest. IT SHOULD BE ABOUT NUMBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERS. AS SHOULD EVERYTHING. I understand why Survivor is also a personal game, and that's also beautiful. But I like the conflict of minds. For me, 50% of the fun is the cold strategy and 50% of the fun is meeting new people and making new friends. Mixing those together though? Well I'll do it I guess if it's the best way to win because at the end of the day I'm out there for the W but it's a yikes.

**Tell us about yourself. What makes you, *YOU*?** My name's Vitor but you can call me Helix. I'm a 16 year old high school senior from Brazil, absolutely in love with Football/Soccer, Pokémon, Survivor, and eating good food. That's a quick top 4 but I like a lot of things; In fact, I'd describe that as what my personality is. I'm trying to think of a term for it, and I'm leaning towards "Professional enthusiast". You know, I am really knowledgeable on stuff I like. I wish I knew the periodic table like I know the Pokédex, or who scored each goal in every match in Inazuma Eleven, or listing off the entire line-up Palmeiras had for any year. I'm a guy who enjoys stuff, and cares about the stuff that brings him joy, and ORG's are no different. I absolutely LOVE Survivor and since I've started playing ORG's (Which is as soon as I found out people do them on Discord. I was so happy and so pissed I missed out for so long since I use Discord lol). They've become my favorite hobby BY FAR and in those ORG's I'm proud to have developed at least a bit of this reputation of being this enthusiast. My favorite word to describe my perspective on the game is definitely "positivity". In my previous ORG's you'll see me having a higher ranking in character rankings than my placement every time, and often have the hosts call me a "positive presence" and that's really what I set out for. I constantly push a game-first philosophy for the season as a whole and try to suppress any silly drama and bitterness people may have. Well, if it benefits my game I'll let it fly but after it's use is done I'll shame, and that brings me to my next point. This doesn't mean I'll be a "4fun" player. I play to have fun. And it just so happens that playing Survivor well is fun as fuck to me. You see, I rate my intelligence really highly. And I love Survivor. So playing in big servers and trying to prove to people how good I am is my drive. So, don't mistake me for a meme player. I'm one of those snobs that thinks he's god's gift to Survivor. Just not the cynical ones. I play hard, but when not strategizing, I'll be a constant agent of good in the ORG. I swear.

**What is your proudest characteristic of yourself, and what do you wish you could improve upon?** My proudest is definitely my positivity and calm nature that lets me be cold on a game sense while really friendly when just meeting people ,regardless of allegiance. It's really rare to see me bitter or truly mad but that's where I get to my next point. I'm too proud in discussions. I know this is gonna sound like a dumb excuse but the stuff they say about Abi Maria being seen as more of a hothead than she is due to culture is true (In that case she's still a crazy woman either way lmao but point stands). If I'm in a really hot discussion and I think, or rather I KNOW I'm 100% right, I'm not gonna apologize. And I often end up talking kinda aggressively with whatever bitch person I'm talking to, that's not a contradiction of the coldness I've talked about before though as it's never for a game thing , but rather for any toxicity I feel is personal that someone might bring into the game. As my game philosophy goes, I'll NEVER bring anything in the game down to a personal level. If someone else does though, against me, I often do scoop down to their level and fail to think of what's best for my game. Because even if they're not playing the game the way it should be played, or even playing the game at all tbh as they're probably dumb; We're still in Survivor so I should treat them like a number and not seek what I would in a real discussion. I definitely gotta work on that. I try to be cold in the decisions but friendly and genuine in the conversations , but if anything gets too personal I should take a step back and just not try anymore with that person , and just do what's best for my game. I swear I'll try. I'll be nice to the dumbasses.

**How do you plan on improving on your game?** CHALLENGES. Oh god, did I SUCK. Just really gotta practice more and try harder. Also, as much as I may be proud of being an underdog...Being minority ain't that fun. And I want my future tribes to have a lot of the numbers, for sure. Then I can work my magic to make sure I wouldn't be the one flipped on , but the one that would be let known about the flip. I'd also like to be able to keep more secrets, Like Spider and Will, you know? The way they played everyone was great. I kinda experienced that in the swapped tribe phase, because Kyra did think Penzo was going had he not quit all the way to the end. But mostly I was stuck having to expose myself and throw it all out in the table just to survive. I guess what I mean is that I don't want everything I do to be only common interest based , and therefore all pretty much public. Tristan was the only one I could brainstorm 100% with. I'd love more of that.

**If you were any Greek god, who would you be and why?** Easy. I'd be Demeter because I get that bread. Well I guess a bit of Dyonisius, I'm not a drinking guy or a party guy, but if we're taking his purpose to inside the season, since the game's theme is the reason of the question in the first place...I find it incredible that one of the so coveted spots in the Olympus is covered by.. The bringer of some of the pleasures in life. Not love, water, harvest... Wine. And parties. I guess if you parallel that to the Olympus of Natvivor All-Stars, him, and therefore me, would be the bringer of Skribbl.io and cowboy hat memes. A job certainly important enough to get a spot up there, just like the Greek said.
