"Crios Cath is currently under production," Chris's voice announces as the Total Drama Crios Cath logo is shown on the screen surrounded by 5 different symbols, a red stag skull, a green dryad, a blue shaman using a staff to cast a spell, a yellow king and queen sitting atop thrones, and a pair of dull grey broken chains "and to get you all excited for it, allow me to talk about the five major teams, and another new twist Total Drama Crios Cath boasts! Clan Kings and Queens!"

The screen switches to a picture of a crown as Chris continues to speak. "Of our five main clans this season, four of them will be led by a King or Queen, who gets final say in team decisions, automatically wins tiebreakers at elimination ceremonies, and reserves the right to request their clan host an elimination ceremony to get rid of any troublesome clan member. In addition, Kings and Queens are given special abilities depending on what clan they rule over. If a King or Queen is voted off of their clan, they alone may choose their successor. However, there are downsides to being the clan leaders as well. Any King or Queen of a clan that is dissolved will be promptly sent to the Shame-Terranean. Furthermore, should a King or Queen request an elimination ceremony, they are putting their own game on the line against the player they wish to eliminate, but I'll talk more about request eliminations some other time. For now, let's talk about the major clans and what they mean for our Kings and Queens!"


Clan 1: Cumhachtach: Symbol of a Red Stag Skull

"The Cumhachtach Clan is the clan of Strength!" Chris's voice announces as the red stag skull overtakes the screen. "In ancient Crios Cath, the strongest men had all the decision making power over the island, and the strongest of all of them was given the honor of King. This team is entirely male, and out of all the boys on the team, one lucky player will be declared Cumhachtach's first king! The Cumhactach King, along with one other clan member if he so chooses, though they must accompany him at all times, may move freely throughout the island, and may rest or spend the night at any tribe's campsite!"


Clan 2: Mealltach: Symbol of a Green Dryad

"The Mealltach Clan is the clan of Beauty!" Chris's voice announces as the green dryad symbol overtakes the screen. "In ancient Crios Cath, the more beautiful a woman was considered, the higher up in social status she was allowed to marry, and using their beauty, many a queen of ancient Crios Cath controlled their husband kings from behind the scenes! The woman on this all female clan determined by the Cumhachtach king to be the most beautiful will become the first Queen of Mealltach! The Mealltach Queen, and two other clan members of the queen's designation reserve the right to forcefully summon any member of another tribe to their camp, where said member must remain until either the next challenge is announced, or until nightfall, at which point, they will be sent back to their own camp."


Clan 3: Ffydd: Symbol of a Blue Shaman Waving a Magic Staff

"The Ffydd Clan is the clan of Spirituality!" Chris's voice announces as the blue shaman symbol overtakes the screen. "In ancient Crios Cath, anything the people couldn't understand was explained as the work of island spirits, and priests, priestesses, shamans, and diviners all were often sought after to appease these spirits. The most spiritual member of this clan determined by the interviews will be selected as the first King or Queen of Ffydd! The Ffydd King or Queen and two other clan members of their choice may watch all Tine Naofa eliminations."


Clan 4: Cyfrwys: Symbol of a Yellow King and Queen on Thrones

"The Cyfrwys Clan is the clan of Cunning!" Chris's voice announces as the yellow king and queen symbol overtakes the screen. "In ancient Crios Cath, cunning was a desirable trait in all people, male or female, old or young, and many ancient Crios Cath heroic tales involve a clever peasant overthrowing their rulers through mind games and taking the throne for themselves. One lucky member of the clan will be determined at random to be the first King or Queen of Cyfrwys! Whenever a member of another tribe finds a hidden immunity medal, plays a hidden immunity medal, or creates an alliance with another player, the Cyfrwys King or Queen and one other clan member of their choice are given the information."


Clan 5: Alltud: Symbol of Dull Grey Broken Chains

"The Alltud Clan is of a different breed than the other four." Chris's voice announces as the broken chains symbol overtakes the screen. "The members of this clan didn't quite make it into any of the other clans over those that did. Instead, they will be sent to this clan. Alltud is a clan of exiles and misfits, forced to play by harsher rules in challenges, and without a King or Queen to guide them, what they do have, however, is a special other-ness to give them an edge in the competition. For you see, the Alltud Clan, and all the acres of land Alltud may lay claim to, cannot in any way be affected by any of the other clan Kings' or Queens' powers. Cumhachtach cannot set foot on Alltud soil. Mealltach cannot summon an Alltud clan member to their camp, Ffydd may not watch Alltud's Tine Noafa Bonfire Elimination Ceremonies. Cyfrwys will not learn of any immunity medals found or played, or any alliances formed by members of the Alltud Clan."


The screen returns to the five symbols surrounding the Total Drama Crios Cath logo.

"Those are our five clans this season!" Chris announces happily. "Who will be the first Kings and Queens? Will Alltud be a force to be reckoned with or a complete pushover opponent? Most importantly, how will these twists and changes shape Total Drama's largest game yet? There's only one way to find out, and that's to watch

Total!

Drama!

Crios Cath!"
