Name: Magpie Mars
Age: 18
Gender: Female
District: 10
Appearance: Even though I’m 18, I’ve never left behind my childhood habit of tying my straight blonde hair into low pigtails. When let down, it falls to just about my elbows and my 2- to 3-inch bangs fall slightly into my brown eyes. My face is oval in shape and too thin for my liking. My eyes are to almond-y, my nose and dark red lips are too slender, and my ears are too large.
My body frame isn’t much, either. I’m 5’6” and only 125 lbs. Given my skinny, shapeless form, I don’t have very much physical strength. I do, however, have relatively high stamina. I’m fast and can run for long stretches before I run out of energy.
My hair, my endurance, and my well-tanned skin are probably my best features. They’re pretty much the only things I like about my body, anyway.
Personality: I like animals and fresh air and sunshine, and I love children. I’m pretty frank around people I know well, especially Gran, but around anyone else I usually put up an act. The act depends on the person and the situation, but I’m usually really good at convincing other people of things.
I have a very childish side to my personality, but I feel like everyday that little girl inside of me fades further and further away. I know I have to grow up, but doing in the world I’m in is suffocating.
I have a very maternal nature and I hate to see harm come to anyone who in my eyes is innocent, like a child or someone striking back in self defense. I hate bullies with a passion. And even though I can’t do anything about the ones who run Panem, I will step in to protect anyone being abused if I can do anything about it. It’s enough to send me into a fit of rage just to watch someone getting whipped for a non-crime just because the Capitol sees it fit.
When it comes to looking at myself and my own performance, I’m a perfectionist. I hate having to struggle to master anything because so many things just came naturally to me when I was young. I’m a very good student; I love to just absorb whatever knowledge I can. Whether it’s academics or learning a new skill, I push myself until I feel I’ve become efficient, and then I keep pushing myself. I’m not used to failure or defeat and I won’t accept them until I’ve expended all my energy trying to outdo them.
The only thing that I try not to care about is my appearance. Even though I expect perfection from myself in most areas, I’m not stupid, and I know that I can’t possibly change my ugly features, so I settle for what nature gave me.
History: I grew up in a family too large for my parents (and grandparents) to handle, so I was always parent #3. I have five younger sisters and a little brother to wrangle. The good thing about a large family is a lot of extra hands to help out with the work.
Most of us work on my family’s farm, doing whatever chores need to be done.
My mother’s parents were living with us back when I was born. Gran is still here, but Gramps was killed by a peacekeeper several years ago when he tried to stop the whipping of a young woman. Because of his murder, I’ve become even more resolved to do what I can to help the innocent and abused around me. Gran sometimes forgets that he’s gone and calls for him to come feed the pigs with her or round up the younger kids. It’s heartbreaking enough for me to have lost an amazing man, but it’s even more painful every time she remembers that her husband of 53 years is dead.

OOC: Hi, I’m CM. I’m new, so I’m not really sure if I’ve got this right. If anything needs to be updated, I’ll be glad to get on it right away. Even though I’ll probably be figuring out how to navigate this site for a while, it looks awesome and I can’t wait to start roleplaying!
