44th Annual Hunger Games RP
See if you have what it take to survive being reaped as you go head to head and fight for your life. Be warned ahead of time, death is DEFINITELY going to happen, considering only one person may survive. As before, you can RP as a sponsor, a stylist, or a tribute. A small forward will be included, to recap the 43rd Annual Hunger Games. May the odds be ever in your favor! Note: This page will start on February 4, in order to allow people to join and make OC's.
Name: Elsworth Mattern
Age: 15
District: 8
Personality: Cheerful, friendly (A little too friendly),
Backstory: He can remember clearly his father telling him stories about his mother but he was too young to remember her at all. He never knew his mother really because he was only two when she was reaped. He's helped his father as he's grown, taking care of his younger sister Anna, who they adopted after her mother passed. It's not been easy but he keeps a constantly positive attitude. See More
Extra: He only has four fingers on his left hand. (Pinky is missing.)

Announcer: And the male from District 4 will be...um...Dude Rad-Sick? *he read the name, thinking this must be some kind of joke*
*looking around, he heard a scream of joy, followed by a longer haired boy raising both his fists in the air, which confused him*
*turning to one of the peacekeepers nearby, he murmured to them, away from the mic* Isn't he suppose to be scared...?
Dude: *hearing him name called, he started cheering, as everyone parted away from him, their eyes wide* See More
*many looked on in confusion at his joy, but he didn't let it get him down* Alright, this is like the best day of my life man!
*seeing the boys part the sea of people for him, he ran down the land bridge, climbing up the few stairs onto the stage*
*moving quickly over towards the announcer, he smiled wide, and raised his hands in the air again*
This is righteous dude! I'd like to thank my family and all my friends who made this possible!

Amicus: *Adding the finishing touches to a his stunning costumes. They are quilts made from a tasteful patchwork of fabrics representing each district* The games are bigger than all of us. We need to remember that we are not them. They're going to love you both. Play to the crowds. They're not the ones to fear.

Sarah: *she had gone back to the District 08 quarters, looking around, the place bringing back bad memories*
*in the middle of the dining room, there was a projection on the wall of the parade, it about to begin*
*knowing there was nothing she could do to help them for the time being, she took a seat and watched on*
One time...*she pleaded with See More the crowd, wanting them to favor District 08, considering what happened last year*
Just show us some sympathy one time...*holding her hands together, saying a silent prayer, eyes glued to the parade*

Crystal: *as she walked past the District 8 Tributes and mentor she snorted a bit as she saw them hugging as if the would all srr each other again* [Pathetic. All of them. As if I would let them win....] *she thought haughtily and bitterly to herself, remembering her friend Jade's gruesome death, and vowing to never face a fate so awful and grotesque as the last See More tribute's*
Colin: *nervously trots behind Crystal's stalking form, glancing at everything, as if the walls and floor were out to get him* [Well, all the tributes are...] *he thought, shuddering, and swallowing nervously* [I won't last two seconds out there... Especially with HER as a tribute.] *he thought, throwing a quick glance at Crystal, remembering all those years he saw her training in case she was reaped, knowing that she was stronger than she looked*

Lavender: *thanks her mentor and stylists quietly as she was led to the District 11 quarters*

Sarah: We'll talk a little about what to expect once you're inside the games later, I promise.
*taking a deep breath, calming herself down a bit, she looked over her shoulder at Amicus again*
But for now you two have to prepare for the parade. Amicus is an expert at what he does, I assure you.
*shooting Amicus a smile, she turned back to face Elsworth and Yvonne See More again*
I guess I should turn this over to him now. I'll see you after the parade, okay?
*she knelt down and gave Yvonne another hug* Just be yourself out there, and you'll be fine.
*with that, she stood, and looked over at Elsworth, hesitating at first, but then gave him a hug too*
I know what it's like to fight for someone back home that needs you...*she whispered in his ear*
Don't ever lose sight of what's important, and never give up, even when things are looking grim.
*pulling out of the hug gently, she gave them both a final nod, and headed out of the room*

Elsworth: *He looked down at the scarf around his neck, reaching up to touch it.*
*He closed his eyes for a moment and clenched his jaw, feeling a lump rising in his throat.*
*He sighed softly before looking back up at her, forcing a small smile onto his lips.*
Thank you...*He murmured quietly to her as he left the scarf around his neck.*
*He swallowed the lump See More in his throat, forcing his emotions to go away as he refused
to cry in front of them although he was secretly touched by her act of kindness.*

Sarah: *on her victory tour, she sat on the train, alone, as it sped towards the next District in line*
*looking out the back window of the train, she watched as the serene scenery rolled on by*
*sighing once, she folded her arms over the back of the seat, and rested her chin on her arms*
*the events of the games were still fresh in her mind, as she tried desperately to get them out*
*looking down at the necklace she wore, she felt tears starting to well up in her eyes, thinking See More of Iris.*
*hearing her mentor come in, she turned towards him, not feeling any attachment to him*
*knowing it was time, she let herself be lead out of the train, a few notecards handed to her*

*looking quickly to Iris's family, which consisted of only her father and another girl she could only guess was a sister*
*unknown to her, it was actually Iris's cousin* I'm sorry! *she cried, tears rolling down her face, being pulled away* See More

Sarah: *walking out onto the stage in District 07 had to be one of the hardest things she'd ever done in her entire life*
*the image of Iris caused tears to instantly form in her eyes, as she remembered the end of the games, Iris's final words*
*as she had done before, she found herself pocketing the cards again, already knowing what she was going to say*
*taking See More the necklace off, she held it in the air, the flint visible* I come here today to share in your grief....

Sarah: *her greeting at District 09 was anything but nice, considering they blamed her for driving Sebastian insane*
*sticking to the notecard speech this time, she was taken offstage before a riot ensued, people giving her death threats*
*back on the train, she didn't feel even the slightest remorse for Sebastian, though she had noticed no one standing under See More his image*
*thinking: He really didn't have anyone at home to come back to...*
*linking this to his behavior, she found herself forgiving his spirit, praying that he found eternal rest and happiness*

Sarah: *turning towards Sunny's parents next, she saw them both in tears* Sunny was a bright, beautiful girl...
Taken cruelly before her time was up...*closing her eyes, the image of the Mutts tearing her throat out coming back*
I know I can never bring them back to you, and for that, I'm truly sorry...*she trailed off, feeling an arm on hers*
*looking back around, See More she saw a peacekeeper, who then proceeded to drag her away from the microphone, causing the crowd to protest*

Sarah: Thank you for allowing me a chance to speak to your wonderful district. *not good with giving speeches*
I'm not going to waste your time today talking about how I overcame all odds to survive the games.
Instead, I'd like to skip right to honoring your fallen tributes. *looking over at Hagan's three younger brothers*
I didn't know Hagan long. In fact, I See More never learned his name until he was already gone...*she trailed off, finding it hard to speak*
*despite the distance, she could see the hardened expression on the oldest brother's face, the youngest crying*
But I was honored to fight alongside him. He was a noble, brave man, always thinking of others before himself.
*remembering how he tended to Sunny, she felt a tear stream down her face* Up until the very end.
*hearing someone clear their throat behind her, she knew she was deviating from what might be "legal"*

Forward:
In the previous Hunger Games, the female tribute from District 08, by the name of Sarah, was crowned the victor after an unseen turn of events.
Starting from the beginning, Sarah allied herself with the girl tribute from District 07 (Iris), and the male tribute from District 09 (Sebastian).
Working together, they were able to run from the cornucopia, hiding the woods nearby for shelter from an opposite alliance.
This alliance included the District 08 male, the District See More 04 male, and the District 01 female, by the names of David, Jax and Jade respectively.
Sarah's alliance met up with the District 10 tributes, Hagan and Sunny, and promptly helped them survive against all odds.
However, after the Mutts were released, the remaining 3 tributes were Sarah, Iris, and Sebastian.
Since they were allied at the beginning, they were all going to protest continuing the games any further, when tragedy struck.
Sebastian had been using Sarah since the beginning, and while her back was turned, stabbed Iris, leading to her death.
Unarmed, the odds against her, she managed to survive by pushing the psychotic Sebastian over the edge, causing him to commit suicide.
This was the story of the 43rd Hunger Games. Also worth note, it was the fastest Hunger Games to date, lasting only a day and a half.
