Twila Tanner
Vanuatu's blunt, bacon-hunting workhorse who played hard, owned it, and paid for it at the final vote.
Known for
Twila took one look at the Yasur women and decided most of them were pampered, and she never really softened. She built shelter while the younger crowd lounged, clashed with Mia Galeotalanza and began a season-long feud with Eliza Orlins. A tribe shake-up dropped her among the men of Lopevi, where she clicked instantly and got folded into Lea Masters' alliance.
At the merge, Twila left the men to rejoin the women against Rory Freeman, and she and her right hand Scout Cloud Lee flipped again when it suited them. Along the way Twila used her son's name to vouch for her loyalty to Ami Cusack and Leann Slaby, then helped vote both out. She won an immunity over Chad Crittenden and fought Chris Daugherty to the end of the final immunity before slipping. At Final Tribal, jurors called her out for it. She apologized, and Scout and Ami backed her honesty, but Chris won 5-2.
