Name: Katia Gallows. Known as Kat
Age: 16
Location: District 1: North Africa. (this what u mean?)
Appearence: tall, skinny, curves in the right places. Long brown hair, bright blue eyes which never rest on one thing for more than a few seconds. People think of her as a pretty girl who should be at home cooking and being happy but she is the exact opposite.
Personality: she is fierce and mean. Tends to be a little kinder to younger kids but can be ruthless when need be. When she is mad, she gets sarcastic. And usually ends up laughing and pinching the offender somewhere painful.

Family: mother is Dianne. She is pregnant again but is to weak and will probably die before the child is due. Her father, Darran, works all day, only just bringing home enough to feed the family. He is a brutal man. Punishing severely and teaching his kids from the age of 3 on how to fight, having lost his sister to the games. She has 3 little sisters. Talia, 2, Fearn, 6 and Darra 19. Two brothers. One 20 called Sard and the other 1 called Raka.
Friends: Gase, a fellow student in school who is just as ruthless. And Reck whom she has feelings for.

Talents: Bow and Arrow, Speed (if powers are allowed), sword, hand to hand fighting, climbing trees.
Weakness: petrified of fire.
Vol/Chose: Volenteered for the thrill.

We will start the games soon. We just need a few more people.

I think we should do the role play here in the group, then we can write a collab around it. Maybe? I dunno...

Name: Paislee Tomasik
Age: 14
Country: Canada (district 5)

Appearance: Fair hair up to her elbows which is very thick, always up in a high, neat ponytail and out of her face. She is medium height, and quite skinny and able to reach into tricky spots due to her long arms and legs. She has lightly tanned skin due to being very athletic. She has broken eyes and normal-length eyelashes, which she is always (secretly) trying to get to grow longer.

Personality: Paislee is very gentle and shy, but once she gets to know someone she opens up and can be quite friendly. She likes to stick close to friends and familiarity, and can come across as unsociable due to that fact. She is in the 'popular group' at school but can be kind. She's slightly arrogant and naive about some things due to her being raised in a relatively wealthy household, and having very protective parents who want to tell her nothing about life and how things work, and basically want her to live her life thinking that everyone in the world is happy and food will always be on the table without her having to do anything.

Family: Two little brothers, Tristan, who is 11, who is constantly a sort of nuisance to the rest of the family because of his laziness, and Joshua, who is 6, and the one who is always doted on. Her parents are Irene and Samuel Tomasik, who are both alive and well. Samuel, her father is the breadwinner, but really, he needn't work as hard as he currently is, because he is earning enough money to only have to go to work two days a week. He is a figure in the state parliament.

Friends: Abigail Smith, her fellow athlete whom she meets regardless of whatever sport she's doing, and who's at the same ability as her in athletics, and someone whom she feels she can trust, and Haley Bouchard, her friend from school who was always there for her and always was ready with another funny joke to cheer her up in hard times.

Talents: She's good with children and can be very patient and calm when others are under intense pressure and panicking. She's willing to give new things a try even though others might not like change. She is stubborn, but in a good way. She always soldiers on with whatever task she is given, determined to finish it. She's fast at running because of all the athletics she does, meaning she is also a bit stronger than people who aren't as active as she is.

Weaknesses: She trusts people too easily and she isn't particularly academically gifted. She isn't very good with medicinal herbs and can often get them mixed up by accident. She finds it hard to change her mind about something once she decides what to believe, meaning if someone told her a piece of very important information she mightn't believe it. She is also gentle and naive, so she will find it hard to compete in the Writers Games, because she doesn't know how to survive in the wild and will find it hard to live roughly and kill people so that she herself can survive. She isn't used to those types of sacrifices. Also, she is not very good with weapons, not ever having encountered one before, living the sheltered life that she has,

Volunteered/Chosen: chosen

Name: Nathan Price
Age: 17
Location: District 12-West Europe (England)

Appearance: His ash blond hair is usually messy as he constantly runs his fingers through it. His eyes show that he is mature beyond his age and always look tired. Fairly tall and thin. He doesn't seem athletic at all but he's stronger than he looks. Pale skin that show scars from being beaten when he was younger.
Personality: He is kind but when he is lied to or hurt in any way, he gets cruel. He usually doesn't become violent because he remembers what it feels like being on the other side of the fist. When he's being nice, he knows how to have a good time and is usually the life and soul of the party. He doesn't care for material things very much but will always have a small picture of his little sister and the small teddy bear she gave him when he left.

Family: Both Nathan's parents died when he was 14. His father accidentally killed his mother as she was protecting her children and when he realised what he'd done, he committed suicide. Nathan took care of his 12 year old sister, Emelie, for almost 3 years but when she was chosen, he volunteered because she was extremely clever and could have changed the world.
Friends: He doesn't have many friends as he was always wary about who he trusted but when his dad died and the beatings stopped, he became more outgoing, resulting in a life-long friendship with a girl called Anastasia.

Talents: He's fast at running and strong. He's handy in a fight as he seems able to just switch off and not remember what it is he's done. Not particularly good at ranged combat and works best at close range.
Weaknesses: Young children remind him of Emelie, his little sister.
Volunteered/Chosen: Volunteered. He would tell you he volunteered because he was bored but it was actually to stop his younger sister being taken.

Name: Tasha Thunders
Age: 16
Location: District 7-South America (Brazil)

Appearance: Sunkissed skin from living in Brazil her whole life. Her hair is halfway between being blonde and being brown. Her eyes sparkle with life and the need for fun. Average height. Not especially thin, but thinner than normal. Muscle definitions in her shoulders, arms, legs, and stomach.
Personality: Bubbly, outgoing, flirty, carefree - which means she often gets guys but doesn't seem to particularly care. She is kind and doesn't enjoy being mean but is when she has to be.

Family: She comes from a family at the upper end of upper class and has never had to worry about food or money. Her parents love her but she doesn't seem to notice as she spends most of her time out of the house. Her older brother thinks she's always up to things she's not [if you know what I mean]
Friends: Loads of people who say they're her friend but Tasha knows she can't trust them as they only love her money. She has one proper friend called Elina whom she would trust with her life.

Talents: As she didn't train particularly for the Games, she's not as skilled as the others will be but good nevertheless. She can use people's trust against them if she doesn't like them or thinks they're going to betray her. She has a way with animals from being brought up in Brazil, to the extent that they will seem to listen to her and do what she wants.
Weaknesses: When she finds herself in a spot of bother, she tries not to panic but often doesn't succeed. If animals are hurt, she will go out of her way to help them, even if it means she gets hurt.
Volunteered/Chosen: Chosen

I am going to do both characters from my district if that is ok. I am going to write the male now.

Name: Fern
Age: 15
Appearance: Tall. He is big built with muscles everywhere. He has short, ginger hair and small green eyes. His face is extremely grown up looking for his age. He has a small red birth mark on his right pam.
Personality: He is very trusting of other people but is cautious of who he lets in his inner circle. He is snotty and believes himself above all others.
Family: he lives with his mother father and twin sister. He loves his sister and they share everything with each other.
Relationships: he HATES the female from his district. Has hated her ever since primary one when she bet him at an arm restyling match, making people make fun off him. He can't wait to kill her. He has friends but never talks about them to other people.

Abilities: he is goog with sword and dagger. He is stealthy and a fast runner, although he is strong, which gives him more stamina than normal. He is good at close range fighting, tending to maim his victim before moving in for the kill and only when the person is begging for death.

Weaknesses: he refuses to fight a girl. He will never harm a female (the girl from his district disclouded) so he will g for the males. Leaving only one and hoping he will be the one he has to kill. He knows he will lose if a female is left.
