Full Name: Lenina Tristen Cross
Age: 18
Birthday: April 25th
Gender: Female
District: 2, Weaponry and Stone Mining

“May God have mercy for my enemies because I won't.”
― George S. Patton Jr.

Brief History:
Nestled in the Victor's Village lies a house occupied by the Cross family which consists of Craven his wife Marina and their three children Lenina, Henry and Fanny. Being the firstborn to a previous victor it is only natural that one must prove herself worthy; and Lenina has trained her whole life to hear those words, "Lenina Cross, victor of the Hunger Games!" She has dreamed of that moment since she was 10 years old, and she has every intention of volunteering as the female tribute for District 2.

Family:
Craven Cross - Father; a previous victor and strict parent. Craven is more like a drill sergeant than a father. He has been training all of his children to participate in the games and carry on the 'family business.' In his eyes, one's worth is determined by their ability to survive. He is distant from his children, seeing himself more as their trainer than their parent.
Marina Cross - Mother; Marina is a very hands off parent, not really there and always out. She was known as more of a party girl when she was younger and thought she hit the jackpot when she decided to marry a previous victor. She would never need to work again and hasn't. Fanny takes after her looks wise, sharing the same face structure and light blonde hair.
Henry Cross - Younger brother; 15 years old. Henry is almost as stubborn and arrogant as Lenina, causing lots of drama and fights between the two. He looks almost exactly like Craven, sharing the same square face and dark black/brown hair. His hair is usually slicked down onto his head and he has the look of a soldier as well as the attitude of one.
Fantine 'Fanny' Cross - Younger sister; 9 years old. Fanny has only just begun her career training and is still very innocent and childish. She is a girly girl, more than Lenina ever was at her age and hates going through her training everyday. Fanny has light blonde hair, similar to her mother's and making her look like the odd one out compared to her dark haired siblings.

Pets: None
Economic Status: Rich

Physical Appearance: Lenina is 5'5" with a thin build and muscular shoulders. Her skin is as pale as ivory and her dark black/brown hair and greyish blue eyes gives her a surreal look. She is pretty and she knows it and is not afraid to use it to her advantage if she must. Her hair is straight and cut into a bob to make sure it doesn't get in her way during training. She has a small scar between her eyelid and eyebrow from a training accident with her brother Henry.

Personality: Lenina is a deadly combination of smart, manipulative and resourceful and that is because of her father. Not only was his cold demeanor towards all of his children a factor towards her cold behavior but also the intense training that he has beaten into her since she was 7 years old. Trained to kill and desensitized to most human emotions she is more of a robot than a person at this point. She is arrogant at times and tries to always exude an air of confidence.

Weapon of Choice:
Swiss dagger - Her weapon of choice, the Swiss dagger is small enough to conceal and lightweight enough that her agility is not compromised. She has been training with the dagger since she was 10 years old, making it the one weapon that she is most proficient with and most comfortable using. Her most favorite way to wield them is dually, but she will make due with only one if need be.
Throwing knives - Lenina's deadly aim makes using throwing knives and even throwing axes very useful to her. She can hit a small target from far away and has been known to hit a small rodent in the eye with one.
Talents: Her desensitization and logical view on everything around her makes her very calm in stressful situations. She has been trained with throwing knives and a Swiss dagger, as well as extensive stamina and agility training. Her father's training has made her a true career. She is also very smart and is trained for almost any situation the Gamemakers may bring in thanks to watching the previous Games and studying everything about them.
Flaw: Lenina is arrogant and sometimes overly confident in her own skills, which can get her into trouble. Her cold demeanor and serious nature is also seen as far to intense for some and she has a hard time keeping friends. Her hand to hand combat is the weakest of all her fighting skills.

Preferred Angles: Bloodthirsty, sexy, and smart
Angles this tribute will not do: Innocent, and nice
Token: None
Playby: Charlize Theron
Theme Song: Cat People (Putting Out the Fire) by David Bowie
Black Sheep by Metric
We Are Young by Fun.

Ari's Character Place Tumblr_m6uyuswLYs1qmf6dmo1_500

Full Name: Faye Amelia Crescent
Age: 16
Birthday: August 16th
Gender: Female
District: 4, Fishing

“I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them.”
― Robert A. Heinlein

Brief History:
Growing up near the water has given Faye plenty of opportunities to bond with her father. Being around him so much has passed on some useful skills to her like how to tie knots and make fishing hooks. Growing up as only one of two children was hard, mainly because her mother always made it known that she wanted more children. This always made Faye more distant with her mother, even seeming to rebel against the advice she seemed to try and give her. Her free time is filled by spending time on the beaches, swimming and sometimes fishing.

Family:
Thomas Crescent -Father. Thomas is a man of the sea and spends most of his time on the open ocean and fishing. Standing at 6'0" Thomas can be imposing, but his height gives him a good advantage when he swims. He has passed on his knowledge to his daughter, teaching her how to tie certain knots as well as other useful skills that he has picked up along during his experience.
Marion Crescent - Mother. Marion is a baker, her specialty is baking the seaweed flavored breads that the district is known for. Faye got her curly brown hair from her mother, whose long hair looks like it hasn't been cut in years. She is caring, and overprotective of her daughter; as well as being good with children. Marion always wanted to have more children, but Thomas did not want that. She usually bakes and gives them away to the more needy children in the district as a way to make up for the fact that she never had more of her own.
River Crescent - Younger sister; 14. River is that sister that follows Faye around almost relentlessly. The young girl is similar to Faye in the sense that she is spunky and rebellious, making them both a dream team of trouble makers when they want to be. River looks up to Faye like a role model, and at times their mother hates that fact. She doesn't like that Faye teaches River her manipulative ways and she tries to school her sister in the ways of being rebellious and mischievous. River is naive and acts young for her age.

River:

Pets: None
Economic Status: Middle class

Physical Appearance: Faye stands at 5'4" and has a medium build. She has olive skin and and always seems to have a bit of a tan. Freckles cover her round face and surrounds her almond shaped brown eyes. Faye's hair is medium length, curly and brown. It can be unruly at times and she usually pulls it back into a bun or ponytail.
Personality: Faye has always been mature for her age, even though as she hasn't needed to show much responsibility with her mother. She is naturally a leader and usually volunteers for any job that is offered to her. Faye is always up for a new challenge and is always willing to learn a new skill if she needs to. She can also be rebellious, and tends to not listen to others advice when it is given.

Weapon of Choice:
Nets and snares - Basically anything that involves a good rope Faye can make work to her advantage. She can braid a rope with anything that will suffice. She hasn't used a net to trap a person before, but the ones she has used have caught plenty of fish.
Fishing hooks - Although it is an unconventional weapon, Faye can make them work. When combining them with thread or fishing line it can make a deadly whip weapon.
Talents: Like so many people from district 4 Faye is handy with nets and fishing hooks. She can make a hook out of almost anything as well as make a rope from any sort of threads. She is also a strong swimmer, having grown up next to the beach has given her lots of time to practice that skill. She is also a great liar, being very manipulative with her words has gotten her her way enough times.
Flaw: Faye has a bit of a rebellious side to her. She is known to get into trouble and tends to not listen to her mother in particular. She is also willing to take risks, making it dangerous if she is put into a life or death situation. Although she can swim, she cannot run to save her life. If she had to participate in a land race, she would most likely lose.
Preferred Angles: Intelligent, Crafty

Full Name: Roe Alexander Glass
Age: 17
Birthday: September 10th
Gender: Male
District: 5, Power

“I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.”
― Douglas Adams

Brief History:
Rhea and her twin brother Roe are the only children to a power plant worker and his apothecarian wife. After losing his mother to illness, Roe became more withdrawn. He even got a job at the power plant that is father works at as soon as he was able in order to help support his family. Roe is very smart and can look very imposing, but in reality he is actually a sweetheart. When Roe watched his sister walk up to the stage in the reaping, all of the emotions that he swept under the rug from his mothers death resurfaced and now he is more broken than he ever thought. He has a crush on Evie Northwood, and upon telling his sister this she became jealous. He knows Rhea sacrificed herself so Evie wouldn't have to go in, she did it for his sake.

Family:
Otto Glass - Father; in his late thirties Otto has the worn look of someone who has been working for his whole life, and he basically has. Working in the power plants has been his job since he was 17. When it comes to his son he has an easier time connecting to him than his daughter.
Terra Glass - Mother (deceased); Terra was a kind woman who seemed to soften Otto's hard exterior. She was skilled in the art of apothecary and medicine making and while she was alive passed on the basics of this to Rhea. When Rhea and Roe were 7 years old, Terra passed away from an illness that she had for he majority of her life that weakened her immune system. Rhea's appearance she inherited from her mother, getting her hazel eyes and sandy blonde hair as well as her lean, tall body.
Rhea Glass - Twin sister; Rhea is Roe's younger twin sister by 5 minutes. While Roe is more reserved, she is more outgoing. She took over her mother's work when she passed away and makes medicines for the people in District 5 when needed. Roe and Rhea are very close, they spend most of their time together and share secrets with one another.

Pets: None
Economic Status: Poor

Physical Appearance: He is tall, about 5'10" with a square face and two hazel eyes that seems to have no expression at times. His hair is sandy blonde and is cut short but still is a little shaggy on top. He looks more like his father, sharing the same face structure, build and nose. He is thin like most people in his district due to the fact that they lived in a poorer district and her family would go through periods of time where they had barely enough food to survive; but he is muscular from the work that he does.

Personality: Where Rhea is outgoing and more talkative, Roe is more reserved and more serious. He is slow to trust and hardly opens up to anyone and when he does he extremely loyal. He doesn't communicate his emotions well and can only do so with his sister Rhea. He can be cold and mysterious to some, due to his quiet nature and rough exterior. He can be extremely protective of his sister, and usually gives her advice on who she associates with.

Weapon of Choice:
Fists - Roe, after using his fists and a tree to take out his anger has learned to not feel the pain in his knuckles anymore. He is a heavy hitter, and his large hands make sure of that. While he may not be the most agile, he can dish out a punch. Constantly hitting tree bark has given him the experience of hitting a human face, and that no longer stops him for getting in a few punches.
Sledgehammer - Working in a power plant has given Roe experience with the heavy hammers. He can use hammers of all sizes, but has found that his good upper body strength makes him a great candidate for using the sledgehammer when someone needs something taken care of.
Talents: Roe is strong, muscular and knows how to pace himself. He is also handy with hammers, a talent he picked up when working in the plants with his father. He is a hard hitter with a sledgehammer and is the go to guy when someone needs something put into place or busted up. Roe has also learned to separate himself from his emotions, making him seem cold in certain situations. A talent that has proven useful when dealing with his mother's death and his sister's volunteering for the Hunger Games.
Flaw: Although Roe a force to be reckoned with if provoked, he can only keep up a constant high activity level for a few minutes at a time before having to take a break. And if there is running involved he is sluggish. One could compare him to a tank, strong and slow. Mentally Roe cannot handle to much stress before he starts to crumble underneath it and at times can seem closed of and cold to others. He cannot communicate his emotions well.

Perferred Angles: Calm, intelligent, mysterious
Angles this tribute will not do: Bloodthirsty, Sexy, Charming

Full Name: Medea Marie Maddox
Age: 16
Birthday: April 1st
Gender: Female
District: 8, Textiles.

“Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.”
― Elbert Hubbard

Brief History:
Medea lives in a tiny shack in the poorest part of district 8. Her father, Peter is a factory worker and her mother Johanna washes dishes for whoever pays her to do it. She is the second oldest out of 5 kids. Her family is very poor, having barely enough money and rations to feed their family. Because of this all Jason, Medea and June all take tesserae to try and make up for what they lack. Medea is what one would consider a bit of an oddball, being the one person in her family that is very obviously different personality wise. She tends to have dramatic mood swings and can usually be found outside because she tends to have a lot of nervous energy. This makes her unable to stay still for long periods of time.

Family:
Peter Maddox - Father. Factory worker.
Johanna Maddox - Mother. Houewife and homemaker.
Jason Maddox - Older brother; 17.
June Maddox - Younger sister; 14.
Diana Maddox - Younger sister; 10.
Edward 'Echo' Maddox - Younger brother; 8. Nick named that because he looks almost exactly like his father.

Pets: None
Economic Status: Poor

Physical Appearance: She stands at 5'6" and is an average height and weighs around 115lbs. Her straight, reddish-brown hair falls past her shoulders and bangs are swept away from her greyish-green eyes. She has hardly any muscle tone on her body, but she is surprisingly strong. Her general coloring is slightly pale, and she looks almost like she is barely surviving on the food that she eats.

Personality: Slightly bipolar, in the sense that it seems her moods change so drastically. One moment she is laughing and goofy, the next she is depressed. When she gets mad she is like a firecracker, usually blowing up at anyone who is around her. She is very strong willed and is very determined when she puts her mind to something.

Weapon of Choice:
Mace - In the training center Medea would go for using a mace. It is most similar to something that she has done in her daily life and she has a good swing. Making a mace an ideal weapon.
Talents: Medea is very determined. When she decides to do something she will do anything to reach that goal. She is pretty strong and has a strong swinging arm. She is also pretty fearless, not caring about what might happen but more interested in how to make something happen. She also likes to climb trees, having a lot of nervous energy pent up makes her find mindless hobbies like climbing trees and running around aimlessly.
Flaw: Medea is extremely stubborn and very strong willed. And while she can be very determined, it is a double edged sword. She won't back down from accomplishing a goal and so that means she has a tendency to rush in to things with out thinking it through first. She also has a bad habit of saying things before thinking. She is a girl of action and not one to think about the consequences before she does something.

Preferred Angles: Independent and Strong Willed

Full Name: Dane Henry Zelker
Age: 17
Birthday: February 29th
Gender: Male
District: 10, Livestock

“If I weren’t too proud, I’d boast of my exaggerated opinion of myself.”
― Benson Bruno

Brief History:
Travis was a well known rancher around District 10, providing his family with a pretty good life. That is until his untimely death when Dane was 15. Being the oldest of three children meant that he had to become the man of the house and help keep the family afloat. He now works on the Lemming's ranch in order to help make some extra money and earn some extra rations. Using the skills his father taught him, namely rope work and knots, has helped Dane keep a job for himself. He can be considered the best in the area when it comes to knot tying. His best friend is Talmon Philben. Their relationship is odd, yet works in many ways. They are complete opposites, Dane being the more extroverted of the two and Talmon being very introverted.

Family:
Marianne Zelker -Mother; the widow of Travis, Marianne has found herself almost lost without him around. A once vibrant woman, she now seems to be always depressed causing her children to constantly worry about her. She once used to hum a little song around the house, but tha has stopped altogether since Travis' untimely death.
Travis Zelker -Father (Deceased); a once prominent figure around district 10 as well as avid outdoorsman. Travis was always known for being friendly and charming, much like Dane is. He passed on a lot of his knowledge to Dane before his passing, teaching him different knots and how to herd. Though only one of those seemed to stick with Dane, he tried making him practice as much as he could to give him a good work ethic. Could be quite a bit of a workaholic.
Gemma Zelker - Younger sister; Age 16. Gemma is Dane's bossy, younger sister and the only daughter to Marianne and Travis. She is straight forward and has no problems speaking her mind. Half of the time Gemma is bossing Dane around, reprimanding him for his schemes but then the other half she spends helping him out and messing with the other people around district 10. He loves his little sister, but just like any other person around him he cannot help but mess with her at times and even finds pleasure in doing so when he is at home.

Gemma:

Preston Zelker - Younger brother; Age 14. Preston and Greg are almost inseperable being so close in age and all. Preston is the more naive of the two, but he is quite intelligent. He just doesn't have much in the way of street smarts it woul seem. Just like the rest of his family he has brown hair and always seems to have somewhat of a tan.
Gregory Zelker -Younger brother; Age 13. Preston and Greg are almost inseperable being so close in age and all. Greg has a very dominant personality and could be considered an alpha male. He can be bossy and demanding, often times forcing Preston to do his dirty work while he watches. Greg has the distinct Zelker look, and in a way could almost pass off for Dane's twin if he was a few years older.

Pets: A Pembroke Welsh Corgi named Bear and a brown tabby named Manx. Bear is a herding dog and loves to run around. Whenever Dane is home he makes sure to take Bear out to run. Bear is more attached to Dane than any of the other members of his family.

Bear:

Economic Status: Middle

Physical Appearance: Dane has a chiseled, square face; his looks at some point seem almost unnatural. His short brunette hair is usually messy and looks like it hasn't ever been brushed. Dane stands at 5'7" and has some muscle tone, with a slight farmer's tan. Dane is known most for his huge smile which can be seen from a mile away.

Personality: Dane's most noticeable personality trait is his flirty demeanor. He is extroverted, and could be considered a 'social butterfly' in any social situation. He is also the type to manipulate any situation to his advantage and is extremely manipulative when it is beneficial to him. He uses the fact that he is good looking to his advantage constantly. Dane always has a nickname for anyone, usually stemming from one thing he notices about the person the first time he meets them. He is quite cocky and very sure of himself and his relationships with others. Dane is also commitment phobic, he has never been in any committed relationship with any girl. Or at least on that could be considered committed to him.

Weapon of Choice:
Snares and Traps - Having to use ropes while working with his father before he passed gave Dane the skill set necessary to learn how to make a few decent snares and traps. He has tried it out on a few squirrels every so often, catching a few in the process.
Knife - The only other thing besides rope that he has used that he would consider to be a deadly weapon. Knives also compliment his fast reflexes, making it the number one choice for a weapon in the arena.
Talents: Light on his feet, and fast. He can sneak around without being detected, usually. He is also talented with a paint brush, although it doesn't seem like he should be. Dane is able to tie almost every kind of knot. Doing something with his hands often calms his mind and he practices his knots everyday, most of the time without even realizing it. He also likes climbing trees.
Flaw: His manipulative nature makes those who have been taken advantage of think not to highly of him. He is also one to never admit his shortcomings, almost believing that he has none. And although he is charming and a people magnet, this can also get him into trouble. He is strong, but his physical strength and hand to hand combat are not his strong suits, preferring to hide rather than fight unless he has to.

Preferred Angles: Charming, Flirty and Confident

Ari's Character Place Tumblr_lnmzycODuP1qi6d7ao1_r1_500

Full Name: Lorence "Lori" Samantha Sullivan
Age: 17
Birthday: November 13th
Gender: Female
District: 12, Coal Mining

“It is better to recognize that we are in darkness than to pretend that we can see the light.”
― Hedley Bull

Brief History:
Down in the Seam lives the Sullivan family, a family that has been torn apart by the Hunger Games. When Lorence was only 12 years old her older brother Gunnar was reaped and chosen to be the male tribute that year from district 12. He never came home. Having to watch him die on screen made her more reserved at first, and then as she got older her personality began to morph and change until she became the person she is now; cynical and apathetic. She can only see the negatives in things and waits for the time when she is ineligible for the Reapings and she can finally be allowed to forget her brother's untimely death. Now an only child, her family has become more and more broken, her father is practically mute, her mother is unrelentingly depressed and Lorence herself being the cynical and uninterested teen.

Family:
Spencer Sullivan - Father; a coal miner in his late 40s, Spencer is more of a serious man. After the loss of his only son, Spencer withdrew into himself more and more with every passing day. He is now practically mute, hardly saying a word and communicating with audible grunts than actual words. He is hardly home, spending most of his time working in the mines; he hardly spends any time with the one child he has left.
Ophelia Sullivan - Mother; depressed since the day her son died, Ophelia is barely a shell of a person at this point. She spends most of her time alone and crying in the small shack that the Sullivan family calls home. Much like her husband she hardly talks, speaking only in a few word sentences when she does say something. Although she isn't crazy, there are rumors around the district that say that she is and her depressed demeanor doesn't help but solidify that claim.
Gunnar Sullivan - Older brother (Deceased); would have been age 21. Lori's brother was reaped 5 years ago and was killed during the games in the initial bloodbath. He never stood a chance against the careers as he ran into the Cornucopia for supplies. He was intelligent and bright, but could be overly confident and arrogant at times usually overestimating his skills.

Pets: She has a black and white cat named Milo. He is more spotted than the traditional tuxedo pattern on most black and white cats. Althought he doesn't live in her house and would be considered more of a stray, but she feeds him daily so in her mind she is more or less his owner.

Milo:

Economic Status: Poor

Physical Appearance: Lorence stands at 5'6" and weighs only 115lbs. She looks rather thin for her height and has hardly any muscle tone except for a small amount in her legs and calves. She has the distinctive 'Seam' look, having dark brown hair and dark brown eyes. Her skin is olive colored and surprisingly smooth and clear. Her almond shaped eyes are quite large and her eyelashes are long and she has full lips.

Personality: Extremely apathetic to the world around her, Lorence is not one to show much interest in the things going on around her. She has an extremely serious nature and is quite cynical. Though she can have her sweet moments, they rarely come out and are still very harsh like most of her personality. She has a sharp with and is a fast thinker, usually being able to talk herself out of almost any situation with ease. Lying comes quite easily to her and she has no problem doing so.

Weapon of Choice:
Bow and Arrow - Gunnar began teaching Lorence how to shoot a bow and arrow before he was reaped. He was quite talented with one and would usually use it to hunt for small animals like squirrels and rabbits helping to feed his family. She inherited his bow after he died and has practiced with it here and there ever since. She is no where near as good as her brother was, but she can hit a target from a far distance.
Pickaxe - Would be more of a secondary weapon, Lorence has some experience using a pickaxe. But not in the way of using it as a weapon or as a way to defend herself. This would not be her first choice in weapons, because it would require her to be near her target, but she would make due if she wasn't able to get a hold of a bow and arrow.
Talents: Lorence has a razor sharp wit and a silver tongue. She can talk her way out of almost everything and has many times. She has no problems telling lies and being deceitful and her moral compass is a little skewed making her feel little to no regret for wronging another person. She is good with a bow and arrow, though not as good as her brother was; but she is able to hit a target and that is what really counts. She is also pretty a pretty speedy runner, even her walk is more of a power walk.
Flaw: Lorence's cynical nature can be very harsh at times, making some people avoid her because of it. She usually shoots things down, and thinks most ideas are stupid and isn't afraid to share her opinion. She can be somewhat of a loose cannon and isn't able to control her emotions when they start to build up. Once she has hit the threshold of her emotions, it is hard for her to come back down to a relaxed state. Physically she is not very strong, and would be unable to beat anyone is a fist fight.

Preferred Angles: Serious, Apathetic, and Cynical
Angles this tribute will not do: Sweet and Innocent
Token: Lori's token is a lucky rabbits foot tied onto a piece of twine. Her brother caught the rabbit while he was wandering around the district one day before being reaped and made sure to save that foot as a memento for his sister, hearing it was good luck to carry one around. She has somehow managed to keep it in good shape since she got it 5 years ago.

Ari's Character Place Tumblr_m3refw2vUe1rvo8xyo1_500

Full Name: Kara Lynne Fox
Age: 14
Birthday: October 25th
Gender: Female
District: 6, Transportation

“Life would be tragic if it weren't funny.”
― Stephen Hawking

Brief History:
The Foxes began as a family composed of Harry and Abigail Fox and their 4 beautiful daughters. The family lived a pretty normal and peaceful life until Abigail passed away. Soon after Harry met Juliana, a recently widowed woman with two children of her own and the two fell in love and soon married. Now a large, blended family the Foxes have been crammed into their home making for a very claustrophobic feeling. Kara's general feeling when she is around her siblings is usually to say whatever witty comment she can think of, and usually adding on to whatever chaos her older sisters Angel or Nadia are creating; most of which revolves around bugging Callie.

Family:
Harry Fox - Father. Always the 'fun' parent, Harry has always had a special connection with his youngest daughter. Kara shares more of her looks with her father, who is a towhead. After his wife's death, he eventually started seeing Juliana whom he married. Kara was always a bit closer to her father than she was with her mother, being known as a 'Daddy's Girl.'
Abigail Fox - Mother (Deceased). Abigail was a kind and even tempered woman. Her personality complemented Harry's more child-like demeanor. During her life she had 4 children with Harry: Angel, Callie, Nadia and Kara.
Juliana Fox - the 'new' mom. Sometime after Harry's first wife passed away, he began seeing his new wife Juliana. She had two children from a previous marriage; Hudson and Ariana. Kara has no problems with Juliana, but the two aren't very close because she feels that this woman is trying to take a place that can't be filled.

Angel Fox - Older sister; 18. The oldest of Abigail's children. Angel is what one would consider a party animal and more carefree; especially compared to her Callie. When it comes to Kara's relationship with Angel it is friendly, but like her relationship with all her siblings she knows they exist. Out of all her sister's Kara and Angel are the most similar, making them a tad bit closer than she is with her other sisters.

Angel:

Hudson Fox - Stepbrother; 17. Oldest of Juliana's children. Hudson is the only boy out of the Fox children and gets very protective of all his sisters, even his step-sisters. He is kind and humorous, usually able to put a smile Kara and his other sisters' faces with his ability to ease any tension. He, like his only other blood related sibling, has brown hair which is the look that Juliana's children have compared to Harry's blonde and red haired children.

Hudson:

Calico 'Callie' Fox - Older sister; 17. Callie is the second oldest of Abigail's children and although Angel is older than her she acts as if she was older. When their mother died Callie tried to take over as the surrogate mother for her younger siblings. While Nadia and Angel found it annoying, Kara didn't really care to much. Kara doesn't always appreciate Callie's habit of trying to get her to share her feelings with her.

Callie:

Nadia Fox - Older sister; 15. Nadia is the prankster of the family, and shares the same dry, sarcastic sense of humor that Kara has. She knows what bugs each of her siblings and uses it to mess with them relentlessly, like knowing that Kara doesn't like to be touched or has boundary issues. Although she is very keen on bugging her siblings, she can be very protective of them when she needs to be.

Nadia:

Ariana Fox - Stepsister; 13. Youngest of Juliana's children and now the youngest child in the family. Kara used to be the baby of the family, very used to being swooned over by the members of her family especially her father. Kara doesn't like that she has been pushed from that spot by her stepsister which causes a bit of friction between the two.

Ariana:

Pets: A pure white ferret named Roxin. Roxin goes with Kara everywhere, usually sneaking into her bag when she goes out. He has a nasty habit of stealing anything shiny, particularly jewelry.

Roxin:

Economic Status: Middle class

Physical Appearance: Standing at 4'11," Kara is short for her age. Her dirty blonde hair goes to her a little past her rib cage and has a mind of its own it seems. One day it may be more wavy while the next it is as straight as a pin. Her green eyes are the doors to her soul so to speak, and one can usually tell how she is feeling by looking in them.
Personality: Outgoing, goofy and a little snarky, Kara is the jokester of the family, and has an uncanny ability of making people laugh, even if she isn't trying to be funny. Her short stature gives her what is known as a 'Napoleon complex,' making her more aggresive than her size would suggest. She hates when people enter into her 'bubble' and doesn't like hugging and people touching her.

Weapon of Choice:
Boomerang - After her father gave her a plastic boomerang as a toy and quickly it became Kara's most favorite plaything. She was determined to master it, and after much practice she was able to finally learn the throwing technique. She often throws it when she is bored or feeling stressed out.
Bow and Arrow - If put into the training center, Kara would gravitate towards a bow and arrow because of her good aim. Learning how to use the boomerang made her learn how to concentrate on her aim. She would have to learn how to actually shoot the weapon, but she would be building on her skill set on the end of aiming.

Talents: Kara is very good with her hands, able to craft anything from a woven basket to whittling. Her room is decorated with the numerous wooden items she has whittled down from sticks she found around the district. Her humor is also one of her greatest strengths, making it easy to disarm a tense situation. Kara's aim is very good, and her concentration in turn is very stable as well. One of her most noticeable talents is her focus, making her a force to be reckoned with when she uses a weapon.
Flaw: Kara is funny to a fault, while she uses humor to try and disarm an uncomfortable situation it can get her into trouble. She also uses it as an emotional shield, making it seem like she is mean in more serious situations. Kara can also be extremely stubborn, making it very hard for her to accept her own flaws or take advice from others. The fact that she doesn't let people touch her makes her more distant as well as unable to let people help her.

Ari's Character Place Marcellanamebanner

Full Name: Marcella "Ella" Anne Thyme
Age: 15
Birthday: June 16th
Gender: Female
District: 11, Agriculture

“And that's the thing about people who mean everything they say. They think everyone else does too.”
― Khaled Hosseini

Brief History:
Marcella or otherwise known as 'Ella' or even 'Mars' is a goofy girl from the poorer district 11. Her family, although poor, is very full of love and having three children eligible in the Reapings is hard every year. Ella loves the outdoors, and can always be found running around the orchards killing time as well as making her own random adventures in different areas around the district. She is extremely friendly and able to make friends quite easily, hoping to find at least one person to go on adventures with. She is usually in her own head, making up her own imaginary worlds that she tends to find herself in most of the time.

Family:
Ronald Thyme - Father; Ronald is an older man in his early 50's. He is a harvester and spends most of his days out in the orchards or wherever else he may be needed. He take work where he can and in turn that means he isn't around much. He is a loving faher though, and tries to be there for his kids as much as possible.
Rosetta Thyme - Mother; Rosetta is a quite petite woman in her late 40's. Her golden brown hair is still as youthful as it was when she was young, not even starting to grey after all this time. She works as a gatherer, much more lately now that her children are older and more independent.
Dougland "Doug" Thyme - Older brother; Age 18. Doug is Ella's oldest brother and looks up to him quite a bit. He is responsible and intelligent, but very quiet and shy. He can be extremely protective of his younger siblings, especially Ella because she tends to find herself in more trouble than Erron ever does.
Erron Thyme - Younger brother; Age 13. Erron is that obnoxious little brother that you love to hate. He can be a real pain, but he does have his moments. Ella can feel very protective of him, much like her brother Doug feels about her.

Pets: None, though she likes to imagine that the birds around her are like pets and constantly find her again after they leave.
Economic Status: Poor

Physical Appearance: Ella is about 5'2" and a thin build. Her arms and legs are as thin at sticks, and rightfully so because she hardly eats much and looks like that. Ella's hair is long, wavy and brown and has hints of blonde in it from the sun bleaching. Her skin is surprisingly light for how much time she spends outside, more of an ivory color than tan. Her eyes are a deep brown and very pretty, probably the prettiest part of her appearance.

Personality: A little spacy, and somewhat goofy Ella could be considered a little off. More naive then anything, Ella always seems to see the best in everything around her, even when the world seems to be bleak. She loves being outdoors, finding herself trying to be in nature than inside. She finds herself getting antsy when she is stuck inside for too long, getting terrible cases of cabin fever.

Weapon of Choice:
Sickle - She has used sickles to help in harvesting the crops and gathering. Any experience is better than no experience when it comes to possible weapon handling. She has never used one to attack a person, but really all it requires is swinging and hoping that it hits its target.
Talents: Ella's love for the outdoors has given her some very handy survival skills. She knows how to start fires and other necessary skills one would need for survival. She is great when it comes to identifying plants and berries, and knows some healing techniques as well. Ella is quite friendly and is able to make friends and allies quite easily, mostly due to her naive nature. In the games allies would be something easy for her to come by because she would have no problem thinking that they would not kill her.
Flaw: Ella is non-confrontational and is more of a lover, not a fighter. Her naivety would be a downfall of hers because she sees the best in people, the idea that they would turn around and kill her is just not something that crosses her mind. Betrayal is a very real reality for Ella because of that fact. She is also not physically strong, hand to hand combat would not be a real viable option for her.

Ari's Character Place Tumblr_m6v91cFSuh1rsli9r

Full Name: Flicka Estella Tremaine
Age: 29
Birthday: March 29th
Gender: Female
Stylist District: District 2 (This year that is)

Years as Stylist: Technically she has been a stylist for close to 4 years, but she took the last two years off to 'soul search' as she likes to refer to it with her dog Roosevelt. If she continued through everything she would have had 6 years of continuous stylist experience.
Preferred District: Flicka is what we like to call a district hopper when it comes to styling. Being considered one of the best stylists in the Capitol gives her the luxury of being able to choose whatever district she wants most of the time. Even if she did take time off from styling, she still gets to pick her district first every time. Flicka usually chooses what district she will style for depending on what she has the most ideas for.

Pets: Black and white spotted Great Dane named Roosevelt. He follows her everywhere, and he is like her sidekick helping her style the tributes while she is there.

Roosevelt & Flicka:

Personality: Flicka is spontaneous, easily excitable and tends to chirp when she she is happily talking. She has a habit of calling everyone dear, and sweetie; even those she doesn't know well. She also, like many other Capitol citizens, love watching the Hunger Games ever year. It is her favorite time of the year, not only because she gets to watch the excitement of the games but also because that is when she gets to fill her time with work.
Appearance: A real Capitol citizen Flicka changes her look as often as one would change their socks. Her natural hair color is light blonde and usually she keeps it a bright, bleach blonde color; though she has been known to dye it an odd color or two. She is 5'6," has brown eyes and quite skinny compared to some of the people in the Capitol. Wearing bright makeup, especially around her eyes is all apart of her signature look.

Ari's Character Place Tumblr_m8yz9raSbi1rtzlzf

Full Name: Heath David Selkirk
Age: 23
Birthday: October 30th
Gender: Male
Stylist District: District 5

Years as Stylist: This is Heath's first year as a stylist, starting out as a grunt worker for other stylists by doing the prep work that is needed before hand. He finally got his break in the styling game when one of the more well know stylists that he worked for saw his designs. Now he is ready to prove his worth.
Preferred District: Currently he is happy to be the stylist for district 5. After their recent victor it is a district with more attention on it but still is one that is good for beginners in the sense that it isn't a high pressure district like 1, 2 or 4. He hopes that eventually he will be able to move up to a more desirable district as he gains more experience.

Pets: None

Personality: Cold and stoic, Heath has a mysterious air to him. He doesn't talk a lot and he seems to be the opposite of most people in the Capitol. His figure can be slightly imposing, and his demeanor only solidifies that assumption. Fortunately for him he embraces this persona that has been given to him.
Appearance: Heath is about 6'2" with a muscular build. His face is well defined with a square jaw and thick eyebrows. His dark brown hair is shaggy and usually falls where it will or is slicked back neatly. His most prominent feature is his bright blue eyes that seem to hold all of the expression in his face. Heath always wears an ornate, golden ring on his ring finger on his right hand.

Ari's Character Place Tumblr_m4rtp7dBlb1qbabvao1_500

Full Name: Rhea Elizabeth Glass
Age: 17
Birthday: September 10th
Gender: Female
District: 5, Power

"No one really knows why they are alive until they know what they'd die for.”
― Martin Luther King Jr.

Brief History:
Rhea and her twin brother Roe are the only children to a power plant worker and his apothecarian wife. After losing her mother to illness, Rhea had to take on the responsibility of carrying on her late mother's work by providing very basic care to her family and anyone in her district that needed it. Just like many people in the Districts, they rarely enjoy a hearty meal and both Rhea and Roe find themselves claiming tesseraes as soon as they were able. Rhea would never tell her brother, but she always made him think that he was putting is name in equally by claiming the tesserae, but in actuality she always made sure her name was the one being put into the lottery. Rhea participated in the 28th Hunger Games and rose above as the victor. She had inflitrated the careers, using her charm and appearance to her advantage and killed Skye Walker from district 4 to take the spot as victor. She loved Kaspar Locke, who later died in the games.

Family:
Otto Glass - Father; in his late thirties Otto has the worn look of someone who has been working for his whole life, and he basically has. Working in the power plants has been his job since he was 17. When it comes to his daughter he has trouble connecting with her and spends most of his time with his son working.
Terra Glass - Mother (deceased); Terra was a kind woman who seemed to soften Otto's hard exterior. She was skilled in the art of apothecary and medicine making and while she was alive passed on the basics of this to Rhea. When Rhea and Roe were 7 years old, Terra passed away from an illness that she had for he majority of her life that weakened her immune system. Rhea's appearance she inherited from her mother, getting her hazel eyes and sandy blonde hair as well as her lean, tall body.
Roe Glass - Twin brother; Roe is Rhea's older twin brother by 5 minutes. While she is more outgoing, Roe is more reserved. He is tall, muscular and good looking with a square face that seems to have no expression. Roe and Rhea are very close, they spend most of their time together and share secrets with one another. He looks more like his father, sharing the same face structure, build and nose.

Pets: None
Economic Status: Rich now, but grew up very poor.

Physical Appearance:Rhea is about 5' 7", thin build with a little hint of muscle tone. She has long sandy blonde hair and light hazel eyes. Her legs are long and slender with a hint of tone in her calves and her arms have no muscle tone to speak of. She is thin like most people in her district due to the fact that they lived in a poorer district and her family would go through periods of time where they had barely enough food to survive; but somehow she manages to keep a glow to her that suggests she gets at least the necessary nutrients from what small rations she does eat.

Personality: Rhea is laid back and kind. She avoids confrontation where she can and wants to please people, especially her father. Rhea is slow to trust and doesn't let people get to close. But that doesn't mean she has no friends, on the contrary she has no trouble talking and meeting people, she just is careful with who she lets in. People have found her to be more kind than most and almost too forgiving at times. She can get extremely jealous though, especially when it comes to the attention of her brother.

Weapon of Choice:
Spear or Pole - To go along with her height and long arms and legs and to match her experience using weapons, her best bet would be something that is long range. Anything that would give her distance between her and her attacker and allow her to have a wider attack range.
Talents: Apothecary and medicines would be considered her greatest asset. She knows what plants are poisonous and dangerous and which have healing capabilities. She also spent the later years of her life with her brother and father, making her more of a tomboy and more accustomed to rough housing. While her brother is stronger than she is, she has more stamina than him and could beat him in a foot race any day. And although she could never kill something she was not bothered by the look of injuries, illness and death when she needed to treat someone.
Flaw: What Rhea has in speed, stamina and knowledge of herbs and plants, she lacks in physical strength and weapon handling. The closest thing to a weapon she ever held was the knife she used to cut up the vegetables to make her favorite stew; which was so rare that she isn't sure it would even count as experience. When it comes to handling stress, she can only handle so much before she starts to crumble underneath the pressure. She also has a weak stomach, she was never able to bring herself to kill a fly.

Preferred Angles: Innocent, selfless and charming
Angles this tribute will not do: Bloodthirsty, sexy, and malicious
Token: A sliver leaf charm on a matching silver chain. It once belonged to her mother and was locked away in a safe place by her father. Only coming out when Rhea volunteered. Otto gave it to her as a way to protect her and hope that someone from her family would be there if she did die in the games.

Full Name: Beatrice Martine Tremors

Full Name: Abel Lee Rhine
Age: 17
Birthday: January 15th
Gender: Male
District: 1, Luxury

“I'm too young, too smart and too good-looking to die.”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon

Brief History:
Growing up as an only child meant two things for Abel, his mother was extremely overprotective and his father always had him strive for perfection. This can easily be seen when you look at Abel Rhine, his body and mind is trained not only for the Hunger Games but in the game of life. He is cautious with anything thanks to his mother and always strives to be the best because of his father's influence. Abel is torn on his opinion of the Hunger Gams, even though he is a career and has been trained to be one. The conflicting opinions of his parents on the subject have him arguin with himself as to whether or not his training will get put to use or not.

Family:
Twill Rhine - Father; a older man of about 50, Twill Rhine took his young bride after he made his riches, deciding that a beautiful young woman would be a more suitable wife for him than a woman closer to him in age. He had picked the 'most beautiful' woman he could find and only a short while after Laurel and Twill were married. They had only one son, Abel and Twill made sure to imprint on him the importance of always being the best at everything. He feels that Abel should take the opportunity to volunteer for the Hunger Games while he still has the chance to try and bring honor to their family. He sees the games as a test of worth and the ultimate competition. Abel has a lot of issues with his father and always feels that he let's his father down.
Laurel Rhine - Mother; the 36 year old still holds her youthful appearance and makes sure she always looks her best. She has axieties about only two things in her life, her appearance and constant pursuit of her youth and her one and only son Abel. She would be described as your typical overprotective mother and now that Abel is older she has loosened her grip on him a tad bit. Though she still worries about the Reapings he only has one more year to go before being in the clear, so to speak. She contantly struggles with her husband's thought that Abel should volunteer for the games in a hope to bring honor to not only their district but to their family. Abel is closest to his mother out of everyone in his family.

Pets: His mother has a pure white Persian named Snow. Snow is like most cats and extremely independent, but doesn't think much of Abel. They tolerate each other and it is a good thing he doesn't have to take care of the cat because he wouldn't.
Economic Status: Rich

Physical Appearance: A tall 6'0" and a muscular 175lbs, Abel is a sturdy specimen and a very stereotypical looking career. His shoulders are broad and muscular and his torso is the bulkiest part of his body and while his legs have some muscle in them they aren't extremely large. Abel has light blonde, short hair his skin is a lighter ivory skin tone. His eyes are almond shaped and a light blue almost a sky blue than a greyish blue. In terms of attractiveness, Abel is quite handsome but unlike most people in his district he is not one to brag about his appearance and hardly pays attention to it.

Personality: Confident, quiet and even a little cocky, he is always one to strive for perfection in everything even if that is not humanly possible. Abel is not one to lead, but instead is more comfortable when he is following orders. Plus it puts him out of the spotlight, making him less of a target when it comes to whittling down the career pack. He is strong enough to help be a key decision maker, but not one to take the credit for it. Abel is incredibly loyal and is not someone to go back on his word. When he is apart of an agreement he needs to have a good reason to go back on it. Though he is loyal, he is extremely cautious around those he first meets as well as in any new situation that he is put into, always fearing the worst may happen. This is a trait that was drilled into him by his mother. He doesn't talk much, and really only talks to when spoken too, though he thinks to himself a lot.

Weapon of Choice:
Claymore - Although Abel is adept with using most one handed swords, his favorite type is a Claymore. It has enough weight to pack a nasty punch, but lightweight enough to still only require him to use one hand and maneuver with it swiftly. With it he can showcase his large upper body strength and make use of it. His broad shoulders and muscular torso gives him a great swing as well as great strength to put behind it. His extensive traning with the sword has made him quick on his feet whe fighting with one and he is able to pull of long stretches of attacks with the weapon with little difficulty.
Knives - A secondary weapon for him, Abel has been trained with all sorts of knives for any close combat type situations. He would never go for a knife if he could choose between a sword or knife, but he is still a deadly foe when he wields one. Abel has also been known to have a good hand when it comes to using a knife, being able to carve ornate decorations into pieces of wood with a knife easily. Not saying that he uses them to carve things into human skin, but he certainly has the skill to do so.

Talents: Abel's greatest strength is that being a career and being trained since he was quite young he has been trained to kill. He has used almost every kind of weapon but is quite adept with a claymore or any other one handed swords. Abel is also quite muscular and strong. He build and height give him an advantage in the sense that he is hard to move and extremely strong. He is a tank of a man, and in any combat situation he is the first line of defense because of it. Abel is very loyal and once he has given someone his word he will not back down from it, he is also willing to follow that person to hell and back if that is what is needed. He is not one to lead himself and has no problems following directions making him a useful ally to have.
Flaw: Abel is better at following orders than giving them and so if put into a situation that requires him to lead he tends to crack under the pressure. His loyalty can also act as a double edged blade, as he will not question is allies which makes it harder for him to attack them when the time comes. Abel's larger size makes it so he is not as agile as some of the other tributes may be. What he lacks in speed though he makes up for in brute strength. When it comes to running, he is an average speed but a tad bit sluggish. Abel's very quiet personality makes him more closed off and makes finding allies harder for him. He really only speaks when spoken to and his intimidating figure tends to scare some people off; which in turn means others find it hard to approach him.
Preferred Angles: Confident, Mysterious and Capable
Angles this tribute will not do: Innocent and Mean
Token: Around a golden chain hangs an ornately decorated golden ring that was a gift from his mother Laurel. Along the outside of the ring are carvings of leaves and laurels, which is his mother's namesake. For the longest time he was able to wear the ring on his pinky finger but as he grew older it got to be too small. Now he wears the ring on a matching gold chain around his neck.

Full Name: Kalina Mae Hollis
Age: 15
Birthday: September 7th
Gender: Female
District: 7, Lumber

“Sometimes it is the quiet observer who sees the most.”
― Kathryn L. Nelson

Brief History:

Family:
Klaus Hollis - Father; Klaus is a man in his mid thirties and still looks very young for his age. He could easily pass off for being in his mid twenties, and his face shows hardly any wrinkles and his hair is still the same dark brown that it was when he was younger. Kalina got her young looks from him, and as he always jokes 'the Hollis family has always been able to fight off the cold hand of aging.' He is very bright and extremely smart. He runs a store in the Upper District that has been in his family for many years, specializing in woodwork. Kalina is much like him in the sense that she can make something out of almost nothing and is very good with his hands.
Natalia Hollis - Mother; Natalia is in her mid thirties and much like her husband she looks hardly a day over 28. She grew up quite rich, her father owned a successful logging company that let her grow up very comfortably. But when she met Klaus it was love at first sight and she had no problem giving all that up in order to be with him. She is quite smart, and helps out at her husband's shop doing work as an accountant and etc. She loves both of her children unconditionally but tends to spoil Mikhail making him somewhat of a spoiled brat at times.
Mikhail 'Mickey' Hollis - Younger brother; age 9. Mikhail or Mickey as his family calls him is almost the opposite of Kalina. They look very similar ad share the same dark brown hair and dark blue eyes. He is outgoing, loud and not too bright, he is also quite spoiled thanks to his mother always taking care of him. His seemingly low inelligence makes him the black sheep of his family. Him and Kalina have a typical sibling relationship, they love each other as one would a family member but if they were not related they would neve be friends. Kalina basically just tolerates him and doesn't go out of her way to spend a lot of time with him.

Pets: A yellow canary named Flitter. Kalina found Flitter one day while she was wandering around the district. Her wing was broken and the girl picked her up and brought her home and nursed her back to health. When the bird's wing had healed, Kalina went to release the bird but it did not leave. Kalina decided to keep the bird after a few failed release attempts.

Flitter:

Economic Status: Lower middle class

Physical Appearance: Small for her age, Kalina stands at about 5'0" and weighs only 110 lbs, maybe 115 when she is wet. Her dark brown hair goes down past her shoulders and the waves frame her oval face. Kalina looks very young, being able to pull off looking as young as 12 or 13 even though she is almost 16. Her eyes are a deep blue, much like the deepest parts of the ocean. Her build is very thin and has hardly any muscle tone except for some in her shoulders and calves that she gets from climbing trees and walking to get anywhere in the district.

Personality: Kalina is not a girl of many words, being more of a quiet observer than anything else. She is very shy when she gets around new people and has a little bit of social anxiety around large groups of people. But when she gets to know someone she really starts to open up and her personality blossoms. She is much more talkative and funny when she is surrounded by a very close friend. Kalina is someone who would rather have one or two really close friends than a large group of acquaintances. Her observant nature has taught her many useful things in life making her very intelligent in things that people say and do. She is almost an expert in the human psyche and like to 'people watch' so to speak. Most times people seem to forget that she is around which is fine with her. This gives her more time to sit in her own mind and entertain herself which is something she does quite frequently.

Weapon of Choice:
Slingshot - Kalina has a makeshift slingshot that she made for herself from a strong stick, a few pieces of leather and a rubber band. Although it isn't the best looking thing it works. She keeps it hidden in her bag at all times and will take it out whenever she knows there are no peacekeepers around. She has pretty good aim, but that is with rocks and other small stones and not necessarily something that can is transfered over to any other weapons like a bow and arrow.
Traps and Snares - Kalina loves a good trap, and she is knowledgeable on where they should be put and how to hide them so that they are most effective. Her observant nature and knowledge on human nature gives her an advantage when it comes to successfully using snares and traps. She is also pretty good at activities that involve her using her hands like making some of the items she has like her slingshot and the necklace she wears around her neck.

Talents: Kalina is quiet and observant, making her a great hidder as well as a knowledgable one. She tends to learn what she can from what she sees and can usually guess what they are going to do next or how they will react. If Kalina played chess she would be a very good player, so to speak. Kalina is also quite small which makes her much more maneuverable and agile than some of the bigger kids in her district. Though physically she isn't that big of a threat, her mind is and she is very smart.
Flaw: Kalina's small size puts her at a great disadvantage whe it comes to hand to hand combat. She isn't physically very strong and could easly be overpowered by someone much larger than she is. Kalina also has social anxiety when it comes to meeting new people and being in large groups, so making allies would be very difficult for her. If she were to have an ally in the arena it would only be one other tribute, maybe two but nothing more than that. She also tends to think too much. She will usually overthink a situation instead of acting and because of that she has lost out on some good opportunities.
Preferred Angles: Quiet, Observant and Intelligent
Angles this tribute will not do: Bloodthirsty and Outgoing
Token: A necklace that consists of a few yellow feathers from her bird Flitter as well as a few beads that she had traded for some miscellaneous items in the Upper District. The colorful beads and feathers are strung on a delicate silver chain that she got when she traded the rations she got from the tessera.
