Kardin

Body of a teenager.

Mind of a child.

Heart of an angel.

Name: Kardin Steller
Age: 14
Gender: Male
District/Area: District 3

Appearance:

Kardin is of average height, and thin. He still has a boyish appearance, but his voice is beginning to crack and he’s slowly growing taller. His big, brown eyes could make your heart melt, and his hair is black, layered strangely because he tries to cut it himself with a knife. He has light skin and is always very dirty because he doesn’t really care what he touches or gets into, and he hates baths. He’s also covered with scars from a combination of accident, and the bullying of kids from his district.

Personality:

Kardin isn’t like most boys his age. He doesn’t act like a teenager, talk like one, or think like one. He’s mentally ill, living eternally with the mind of a child, unable to understand much of what’s happening around him. He doesn’t know anything about the other districts, the Capitol, the history of Panem, why all the kids lines up in the center of town every year, and why some leave and never come back.

Some think this kind of ignorance is unacceptable, but many can’t help but adore his childish innocence, and envy him for this ability to be so careless, so oblivious to the troubles of the world. However, that isn’t to say Kardin never runs into these troubles. Whenever he experiences any pain or discomfort, whenever something doesn’t go his way, his first reaction is to shriek, cry, break things, pound the ground with his fists, and throw an all out tantrum.

Fortunately it’s easy to keep him happy and comfortable, and relatively hard to make him upset unless you take physically attack him. Unfortunately, however, those who don’t accept him feel free to physically attack him, which has made him slightly antisocial and afraid of any person who matches the description of the kids he’s been attacked by. Like a child, Kardin learns from experience, a sort of “if it hurts, don’t do it again” system. A knife cuts you so don’t touch the blades. Explosives blow up people, so don’t go near them. The other kids beat you up, so don’t play with the other kids. That’s how Kardin thinks.

Otherwise, that is one of his only worries. He’s usually a carefree, playful boy, who likes to smile and laugh, something he might not do if he knew that he was in a yearly drawing to be sacrificed.

History:

Kardin’s only parent who he lives with is his mother, Melany. His father left when Kardin’s first symptoms of mental illness appeared when he was four years old, still not talking and barely taking his first steps. His father knew Kardin would never be able to work in the technology industry, which was the industry of the district, and knew that if he stayed he would be in constant fear that Kardin would play with the wrong toy, or trust the wrong person, or be sent of in the Hunger Games to be completely defenseless against people who knew how to fight. He didn’t want to get attached. His father lives on the opposite end of the district now, as far away from his old family as he can; only communicating to them through Kardin’s adult sister, Mara.

Mara is twenty years old, and the first year she stopped taking out tesserae, Kardin started taking them in. The family had no choice, without a father to constantly provide and a mother who has to stay most of the time keeping care of her handicapped son, they were poor, and often hungry. At first Melany had refused to let Kardin put in extra entries in the Games to get food and oil, but she finally gave in, not being able to bear hearing her son squealing like an infant every time he felt hunger pangs or was cold at night.

The other member of the family is Kardin’s grandmother Tarca, his mother’s mother. So for the past two years, Kardin has taken out tesserae for four people and will have fifteen entries and his family is extremely worried, knowing he would have no chance surviving the cruel Hunger Games.

Kardin is my cute, sweet, innocent and lovable character. My next character's pretty much the opposite...

[shadow=red,up,500]Sade[/shadow]
To have
a heart that is broken
is much more painful than it is to have
no heart at all.

Name: Sade Lyretail
Age: 16
Gender: Male
District/Area: District 4

Appearance:

Sade has spiky black hair and thin, slightly slanted, sharp black eyes. He’s extremely pale, which make his very dark eyes stand out very much, even though his eyes would stand out anyway in any group of ordinary people. People say his eyes are empty, emotionless black holes that give a chill to anyone he looks at.

Equally dark are the clothes Sade wears; it’s as if he refuses to wear any color but black. He’s tall and thin but lean, strong and good at sports and other physical activities, not that he ever plays them. Sade almost always comes off as a shady character, even though he’s handsome and popular with the young ladies of District 4. And the other thing about Sade; despite being strong, handsome, and even wealthy, no one in the District has ever seen him smile.

Personality:

No one can be sure of Sade’s personality except that he likes to spend most of his time alone in his house, where only he lives. Compared to the other houses in the District, his house seems like a mansion, and even though he could probably sell it and make himself a lot of money, he decides to stay there anyway.

He seems shy and is very quiet, but only because he doesn’t have anything to say to the people around him. Also, sometimes people see him talking to himself, and tend to think he’s creepy, so they really don’t have anything to say to him either. The only people who want to talk to him are the girls of the District (they find the strong, silent, mysterious type attractive) but he never listens and he never replies.

He seems to hate everybody. He seems to hate everything actually. When he’s angling (District 4 is the fishing district) and makes a catch, the first thing he does to the fish flopping on the deck is kill it by crushing its skull with his foot; but not with a quick stomp. Instead, he places his foot over the head of the fish and slowly lets his weight bear onto it, listening for each crack as the skull splits under the pressure. He seems to get a sort of morbid satisfaction from this, which scares the other fishers. This sadist behavior makes some think he should be considered dangerous, but he has never hurt a person before, and is an excellent fisher, so no one complains to the Peacemakers.

However, what they don’t know is that what Sade wants more than anything to hurt other people. He’s obsessed with the idea of cutting human flesh and hearing screams of pain. When he’s alone in his house, he cuts himself where others won’t see the scars, just to watch the scarlet trickle against the pale white skin. But Sade never acts on his impulses in public. He smarter than to hurt someone and end up locked away forever or executed. What he wants is a chance at the Hunger Games. For the past four years he’s been training himself, ready for the day he could step into the arena and no longer have to hide his true personality; that of a disturbed, sadist killer.

History:

Much of Sade’s problems come from his past and his experiences as a child. His mother was very young when he was born, still just young enough to be eligible for the Hunger Games. At eighteen, when Sade was less than a year old, her name was pulled from the drawing and she left her District and her baby boy to fight others to the death in the arena. She never made it back.

Sade was left with his mother’s brother (he never knew his father), but as Sade grew older and began to resemble his mother more and more, he became a constant reminder of her loss to his uncle. Eventually, when Sade was eight years old and practically a young male version of his mother, it became overwhelming for his uncle. The memories were too great, and he hung himself with a fishing line. Sade found the body.

After the death of his second guardian, he was quickly adopted by a lonely, wealthy old woman and the owner of the house Sade lives in today. However, she too died just a few years later, and Sade was finally left completely alone with no guardians, no family, and no friends. The only things he still had were the huge house left for him and a very damaged heart.

The first thing Sade did to try and help himself heal was to not make anymore attachments to living things; he knew they could be violently snatched away from him at any moment. He turned cold towards other people, and taught himself not to care about them; to spurn anything that would bring forth emotion.

But soon, just not caring, wasn’t enough. When Sade turned twelve, he realized he didn’t just have to prepare himself to see those around him die, he had to be prepared to kill them with his own hands. So he started training. Over the years, he became much stronger, but much colder, and much more dangerous. His life started to revolve around the thought he might have to kill. And soon, he wanted to kill. He knew it would be so much easier if it was something he could enjoy. He began to look forward to the Hunger Games every year, and when he wasn’t called at the Reaping, he watch the Games on his television, carefully observing each killing, wishing he could be there, thinking of the best strategies he would use to survive the Games; the endless ways he could kill the other tributes.

Sade is sixteen now, and he knows this year is his year. Because this year, instead of just hoping to be summoned for the Games, he’s going to volunteer. And he won’t take “no” for an answer. The other tributes will have to watch out, because this year, instead of just worrying about the other kids, they’re going to have to watch out for possibly the darkest contestant ever to step foot it the arena. Sade is confident he can win the Games, but the question; what will he do then? Will his obsession with killing be over or will it leave him craving more? Only the events to come will tell.

What did I tell you? Huge difference there. And did you notice; Sade, sadist...see the resemblence? Yes, I do put thought into the names of my characters. Well, Kardin doesn't mean anything, but...It does sound cute, doesn't it? ;D

[glow=white,1,100]Mercy[/glow]
Dying and going to heaven is better than living in the hell of pain.

Name: Mercy Lee
Age: 19
Gender: Female
District/Area: District 2

Appearance:

Mercy has semi-short reddish-brown hair and hazel eyes. She has pale skin and is of average height and weight. She wears plain, modest clothes. She a doctor, but since she works at home, she doesn’t need to wear a uniform. She’s pretty simple when it comes to appearance.

Personality:

Mercy’s personality is what’s not quite so simple. She’s always been very caring and sympathetic, like many doctors, but most don’t let it get in the way of their duties. Mercy gets much too involved with patients; she feels their pain and grieves for them as if she’s known them her whole life. Her emotions often drive her to the point where she makes rash, unprofessional decisions. The worst of these is killing for mercy.

When a patient is suffering and there’s nothing else she can do, she can’t stand watching them die a long and painful death. So she puts them out of their misery. That’s why she has to work at home, where no one will find out. She’s very talented in the medical field, so she’s even been able to develop her own drug that causes painless, instantaneous death. It comes in pills she calls “mercy pills”, which she keeps hidden for worst case scenarios. And when a patients pain becomes more than she can bear, she uses them, ending both the patient’s and her own misery.

History:

Mercy’s family were not doctors. They were people whose job it was to harvest plants and other things that the doctors use to make medicines and drugs. It was a life that Mercy didn’t mind until the death of her brother, Candor. He was gravely injured by a piece of harvesting equipment, and the family wasn’t wealthy enough to afford surgery to save him; he suffered for 9 hours before he finally died.

Mercy held his hand the whole time, and the whole time, she felt like she was enduring every ounce of pain he felt. Since then (she was thirteen), she’s worked herself up, studying from old medical books she’s found in dumpsters, and begging any doctors she knew to teach her. One saw her potential and taught her everything she needed to know to treat injuries and save lives.

After her training was finished, she returned home, her only reason for learning was so that she could help people who couldn’t afford medical treatment. However, she soon realized there were some people who just can’t be helped. And that’s when she created her mercy pills, to prevent what happened to her brother to happen to anyone else.

Her parents have a special naming system; her name is Mercy, her brother’s was Candor, and her two little sisters are named Patience and Hope. The reason they named their oldest daughter Mercy was because they hoped the world would be merciful to her, but that’s not exactly what happened. She ended up being the one who had mercy on the world; a world where mercy is mostly unheard of.

((If you didn't know, Candor is another word for Honesty, but Honesty would make a stupid name...))
