Malissa Dawn {Capitol}

M A L I S S A


I was born in the year of the 44th Hunger Games
So that makes me Twenty!
I've lived in the Capitol for all of that time.
Though I've never left my home, I am almost obsessed with district two.
For my entire life, I've wanted to be a stylist for the Hunger Games!
I've started a few trends already-
Remember when anyone who was anyone wore Sapphires and Emeralds on their wrists?

Yeah.
That was me.




Hey! Listen!

Morning in the Capitol Shimmers!

Malissa stands at a rough 5'3, and weighs around 150 lbs. She has no desire to change her weight- she wants to stand out among the other socialites. Her hair falls to about her bra-strap, and is naturally a dark blonde. Layers rake up the sides, with the tip of each strand of her hair dyed a vibrant lime green to match her green eyes. (She wears contacts to make them MORE green.)

She has a round face, and large, excited, wide eyes. A smile is always on her face, her lips shining with pale pink plumping solution, (No botox or injections for this girl!) and she seems to bounce around wherever she goes. She comes off as unusually happy- how could anyone ever be that happy? Her ears are heavily pierced- seven in her left, and five in her right, with a rumored stomach piercing.

She always wears the brightest fashions, mostly pieced together from her own hands. Always, always, always, she wears makeup on her eyes. (She's allergic to something in foundation, so that's out.) The rest of her is very curvy, around her sides, thighs, and chest. She holds herself openly, and is easily approachable. (Just don't tell her your personal problems... Soon, the entire Capitol will know.)





Morning in the Capitol Shines!



Malissa Dawn is a hyperactive ball of energy who enjoys every single Hunger Games, if only for the outfits during the Tribute presentation. Naturally, she is excitable, and very passionate about the things she cares about. The only way she could kill someone is by talking them to death. She loves fashion, and anything couture. Her life's dream is to become a stylist for any district's tributes, although her favorite is the second district. (Gems, and shiny things and all that.)

Though each coin has two sides- being so hyper and talkative means she can hardly contain herself at formal events, and tends to be a tad... Inappropriate with the speed of her language. She can fly by someone faster than a jet, and finish a complete conversation in less than a minute. She is a terrible critic of her own work, and cannot find fault in anyone else's. She constantly beats herself up over tiny faults in her work.

She is one-hundred percent desperate for attention. She wants to be the one who everyone talks about during the off season, and the one stylist everyone focuses on during the parade and such.

As a stylist, she focuses on the gaudy, the flashy, the blingy. She believes in using artificial means to slim the body instead of things like liposuction, she prefers vertical stripes. On that note, she also prefers work with the female form versus the male. (But she'd take any district, or anyone at this point!) Malissa KNOWS the Capitol has it far better than any outside, though she wants to believe the propaganda, that the miners in 12 love their jobs, or that 11 is full of rough-and-tumble hooligans, if only to make it easier to loose her tribute.



And I Know for Absolute Certain~


Malissa has had a remarkably DULL past. Her family is part of the upper class of the Capitol, with money to spare. They always manage to sponsor a tribute, and her father is usually correct in placing bets upon winning tributes. Others may think the game rigged, with Mr. Dawn's winning streak, but Malissa knows it's just luck, a lot of math, and a lot of planning. (He says the course type is actually relevant. District four would do better in a humid course, while district twelve would do better in a colder environment.)

She found her passion around the time she was twelve, watching the 52nd Hunger Games. It was the first time she actually sat down and watched it with her parents instead of calling it boring and scuttling away. She was fascinated with everything- the colors, the fabric choices, the hair. The day after the tribute parade, her mother took her into the city and bought Malissa her first sewing machine. The first thing she ever pieced together was a cupcake dress that very closely resembled the dress Two's female wore into the interview.

Her higher education consisted of many a styling class. She claims it is a skill she had to hone, but she really is talented. Currently, she owns a boutique on main street, competing for the attention of the capitol residents. With support from her father in the form of a check every month, she never has to worry about selling too few outfits. (Though plenty of people seem to like her things.) All she wants is to be noticed by the gamemakers, really.





That Everything is Certainly Fine!

Huzzah! Finished!
