A D R E S T R I A

I was given my name by my loving parents.
They say it resembles the name of an ancient hero.
My mother birthed me just before the 48th Hunger Games.
I suppose that makes me around 16 or so.
Though I am Female, some choose to make fun of my muscles,
But never in front of my face. Must be afraid of my fists or something.
If I'm not feeling generous, I'd knock their lights out.

Hey! Listen!

I Don't Have The Right Looks

This teen stands around five-foot, six inches, and weighs around one hundred and sixty five pounds, most of it muscle. Her body is very, very built- a trait she earned from training. Her arms, calves, and thighs are very thick, something she detests about herself. She wants to look like the 'Pretty Girls,' the ones with the waifish figures, though Adrestria would admit she likes herself better this way- easier to tear out the 'Twig Bitches' throats. Most of her time is spent indoors, so her skin is fair- she sunburns easily.

Adrestria has a fairly pretty face that usually has a frustrated frown upon her thin lips. She smiles, sure, but only when she feels it appropriate- like if she earns praise from one of the die-hard instructors in her district. Her forehead slopes down gently to her medium sized nose, and her high, pale, cheekbones accentuate her slightly tilted blue eyes. Obviously, her hair is dyed a shade of blonde, though the natural color is dark brunette. Normally this is kept in a messy bun or ponytail, but when it is down, it rests around her shoulders.

Quite often, she is seen favoring her right side, (particularly the leg) from an old injury that never healed perfectly. She is small-chested, and hates this fact about herself for it, while her two siblings inherited her mother's looks- such as being well endowed, natural blonde hair, and the skinny figure Adrestria so desires.

She prefers warhammers and polearms to bows, knives, or swords simply because of the bashing force behind it. At her maximum, she was able to bench her own body weight, though she struggled to do more than three reps.

Or The Right Name

The humorless Adrestria never appears happy with anything. She always seems like she woke up on the wrong side of the bed, and frustrates much easier than many of her peers. Adrestria works best alone- be it training one on one, or studying in he bedroom, or even playing on a team; she would definitely be the first career to turn on the others. She craves he parents affection, their praise, their approval of anything she does, particularly her mother who obviously loves her sisters more than her. Not only do they have skill, but they have pure beauty too. She identifies better with her father, who gave her the name 'Adrestria' in the first place. She was very intrigued by the 62nd Hunger Games.

She has plenty of 'Companions' but no real, honest friends she can run to in times of need. She is, however, extremely close to he father. If she is not chosen for either of the next games she is eligible for, he promised he would teach her how to follow in his footsteps. In this instance, she teared up and vowed to make it into the next games- the 65th. Her father is concerned about Adrestria finding a mate; she seems disinterested in any suitors he's secretly slid past her.

Bugs. Addy hates bugs, be them on her, next to her, in the next house over. she can not STAND them in any form, just as with rats, hamsters, and other rodents (beavers and rabbits excluded.) In her spare hours when she is not at school training or at home guarding her room, she likes to spend her time in the family's living room, where they have an old heirloom- a grand piano. Her sisters have more time for it and play far better than she, but Adrestria still likes the sounds it produces.

But I Have Twice The Heart

For Adrestria's past, there is not much to say- she was born during the 48th hunger games, while her two sisters, twins, were born during the 50th games. The three of them grew up easy- the twins close to each other, but not with their older sister. Their father works as a demolitions expert in the district's mine, while their mother stays at home fawning over capital couture. Addy cannot understand why her father loves her mother when they seem so different from one another. He answered with a simple 'Opposites attract' and left her to ponder on that for a long while.

Adrestria never had a problem in school- she loved learning about the capital, and especially about the district's revolutions. To this day, she thinks the thirteen outlaying communities were in the wrong. The most notable event in her childhood, aside from the birth of he siblings, would be when she was eight. A boy from class teased her about her size, and she beat him up for it- breaking the young boy's nose. Trainers of the tributes for district two instantly caught notice of the girl and pulled her in to start training for the games. Her mother screamed in excitement at the news while her father frowned, and said nothing. He never approved of Addy wanting to enter the games, but what's a parent to say?

She never had to worry about being hungry, never worried about being ill, never felt the winds of revolution. She finds no need to change her ways, nor does she want anything less than perfection. When Cricket won, he mother swelled with pride and happily exclaimed, 'I wish that was my daughter!' What a morale booster.

All Addy can really do is keep pushing herself to the next extreme, to bench more, to swing faster, hit harder, all to prove to the woman she is worth the breath she steals.
