⭕Day 1⭕ Blood vs Water

[Sandy]

We're here in the Blasket Islands off the west coast of Ireland for our most experimental season yet!



These islands were once home to the Irish natives but in the mid-1900's an evacuation due to the uncertainty of their safety took place. And whilst many chose salvation, those who stayed remained in a primitive way of life with even the word 'Blasket' meaning 'a dangerous place' in the Norse language.



Soon these islands will be home to pairs of loved ones who are about to begin the adventure of a lifetime! They come from all walks of life and each pair has a unique reason to play and compete against one another.


New players Andrew & Rosie; dating.




Chris returns from Congo & Tibet with his niece, Arielle!




New players Carina & Mikey; siblings.




Constance returns from Russia with her sister, Jennifer!




Dan is joined by his wife & returnee from Russia, Maranda!




Davis from Jordan returns with fianceé & returnee from Tibet, Tierra!




New players Eddie & Josh; brothers.




New players Hassan & LeBlanc; childhood friends.




Joanne from Haiti & Macedonia returns;
Alongside, husband & alum from Venezuela, Trevor!




New players Mary-Beth & Scarola; dating.




O'Henry returns from Andaman with his cousin, Ty!




New players Shane & Sydney; exes.


For these next thirty-nine days, their relationships will be put to the test as they outwit, outplay and outlast the others. But, can they put aside their personal connections to win, or will it be their bond that carries them to the Final Tribal Council? In the end, only one will remain to claim the title of SOLE iSURV1VOR!

39 DAYS
24 PEOPLE
1 iSURV1VOR!

This season of iSurv1vor we chose to inhabit, yet again, one of the most unforgiving environments. To start off the Generation V - the HP twist is back in play and so is Exile Island!

If, at any time, you are feeling vulnerable at Tribal Council you may have a chance to go to Exile and avoid having your torch snuffed.  When placing a vote in the urn at Tribal Council, each castaway will be given the chance to sacrifice some of their HP to escape Tribal Council, before the votes are read. The single castaway to bid the most of their HP will have it deducted from their total, and will chopper on out to Exile Island. 

When casting your vote at Tribal Council, let Production know how much HP you are willing to sacrifice in order to go to Exile. Living alone on Exile is going to take a toll on you physically. HP will be deducted from any bid winner's HP total prior to voting, and any votes placed on that tribe member during the revealing of the vote will be negated. Keep in mind that the Exiled tribe member's vote will still be intact and count during the reveal. 

And as always, the person with the most votes will be sent home.

AGAIN, GOOD LUCK CASTAWAYS!

Let me officially welcome you to iSurv1vor: Blasket Islands - Blood vs Water!

This season you have the opportunity to experience this game with a loved one, be it your significant other, a friend, ex-partner or a family member. Having somebody who has your back can make these thirty-nine days easy. But that comfort for two of you will be short lived as you're all about to take part in your first decision.



This passenger ferry, the Mystic Waters holds space for twenty-two people only. We've been advised by the captain that anymore is dangerous and unlawful, so we have a problem. This is the only means for us to get off the mainland and to our location on Blasket Islands. In order for us to step foot on the ferry - the adventure begins here where twenty-four 'Blood' relationships decide which of them physically get there.

We need to leave people behind on the mainland, a decision that will be determined by you. Below is a parchment with every pair in the game. With your loved one, you will vote out another pair.


The two pairs that have the highest amount of votes will not make this journey together. This is a very big decision and one not to be taken lightly. Every pair has twenty-four hours from this post going live to decide and vote to Sandros via Skype (sandy.e.p)

By now you have all been given access to a large Skype chat group. Take this time to get to know your competition and make your decision. All questions please direct to the Production team. Good luck.

Please step forward.

Earlier I stated that the two blood relationships that received the most votes would not be making this journey together. Now, when each pair placed their ballot you weren't necessarily sending the team you voted straight back home... The first test of a loved one's strength starts right now, as Constance & Jennifer and Shane & Sydney must decide which one of them will board the ferry, claim their spot in the game, and which one of them will remain here on the coast.

Sydney & Constance decided to let their loved one's continue on, thus have become the first two casualties of the game. Thank you both for your time and though your time was cut short, we trust that you'll continue to follow your loved one's progress throughout the season. With that said it is time for you to go.



Time to board the ferry castaways, the Islands are waiting! 

       


You'll be divided into your respective tribe chats during this sea voyage, with the Bloodless as team captains who will be in charge of the division. Shane & Jennifer are now headed below deck to their Captain's Quarters where they will spend this journey making important decisions for their game and yours.

Head on out, rest up, update your confessionals, and await your first treemail that will detail you first Immunity Challenge.

And with that being said, game. on.
