Survivor: Oman - Heroes vs Villains

This is the first collaboration season written by Jong,Uke and Tangle

Twists
Returning Players: 20 players across the wiki will return for this season, mostly from the three of our seasons. These are Caroline Islands, Finland, Montserrat and Eyre Peninsula

Heroes vs Villains: 10 heroes will face off against 10 villains in this season

Merge at 12: The castaways will merge with 12 people left

Jury at 9: Like the original HvV seasons, there will be 9 jury with a final 3

Hidden Immunity Idol: There will be idols for each tribe which is hidden during an immunity challenge when a clue to the idol is found, the merge tribe idol will be hidden near the tribe's camp

Citizen Idol: The idol will be split in half and one half is hidden at each tribe's camp, and it is only eligible for use at merge. This idol can be played for two people, but the two halves of the idol must be combined and owned by a person before being use

Kidnapping: The winning tribe of the reward challenge can kidnap a person from the losing tribe to stay with them for a night, the kidnapped person will receive a clue to the citizen idol, and would stay until the next immunity challenge

Castaways
DISCLAIMER: For any castaways that may be participating in another season as we're writing Oman, Oman is a separate season. These particular castaways are being treated as though they flew to Oman immediately after the filming of their ongoing season has ended and were ordered to not discuss the events of said season. This is similar to Russell Hantz in the original Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains which took place immediately after the filming of Survivor: Samoa as well as Malcolm Freberg (Survivor: Philippines and Survivor: Caramoan).

Author's Notes

 * This idea came about on chat when the three of us discussed what it would be like to have Carlos Shannon, Yolanda Marquis and Audrey Pearce all on the one tribe.
 * In this continuum, everyone has had a chance to watch everyone else's seasons. Everyone is a year older this season than they were in the previous one.
