Survivor III
From TaikaiWiki
Image:S3.png Survivor III: True Hero Story was a main tournament held from December 29, 2000, to January 3, 2001, on the Final Fantasy Online forums. Hosted by Saint7, Survivor III allowed characters from Square and Capcom games, and took place entirely on a world that was slowly deteriorating. The Sigma Saint eventually discovered that Vante was responsible for the damage caused; the Omega had used the power of the Memory Pools in attempt to merge the world with a segment of The Void. This act was eventually countered through the use of the Entropy Sphere, which was activated by the winner of the tournament, Quistis Trepe (as played by RavishinglyRood).

Continuity
Survivor III involved the Eternals, specifically the Sigma Saint and the Omega Vante. Both the Memory Pools and The Void played key roles in the tournament, as did a special artifact known as the Entropy Sphere.
S-Data Recovered Synopsys
No longer guarding the Memory Pools, Saint accepts a modest position on the Echelon as a Sigma and decides to find a nice quiet world to spend his remaining days in. Unfortunately, his longtime Eternal nemesis Vante, the Omega, returns to conquer Saint's paradise. With the help of Quistis (Ravishingly Rood) and a robed stranger named Gen, they manage to save the dying planet by encapsulating its Essence into an Entrophy Sphere (or Egg). Mishnu is crowned the Highest Echelon position as Alpha of the High Court.
Battle System
Survivor III occured back in the Saint7 days of Survivor, and as such had a very simple battle system that was based primarily on the TV show Survivor. Every character had five A-Votes, which they could use to damage other sponsors in an attempt to eliminate them.
Roster
Survivor III allowed participants to sponsor defined characters from any video game produced by Square or Capcom.
