Francesca 'Frankie' Black / District 2

Francesca is of a tall and lean build, standing at around 1.7 meters with rather toned muscles from her constant training for the Games. Her stature means she can run quite fast and is a very good climber. She also has long, light brown hair that is often wild and messy in a strangely attractive way. Her skin is rather pale and her features are sharp. Frankie has dazzling green eyes that express a lot of her emotion - if someone crosses her path and angers her, there will be no mistaking the rage as her glare is deadly. Frankie is quite aware that she's unconventionally attractive as she gets a lot of female attention effortlessly. She has a few tattoos on her body as well. There is an intricate design of black and white plants and astrological symbols on her left forearm with a wolf skull in the middle, which she got done on her 17th birthday. More recently, she's had a small butterfly knife tattooed onto the back of her neck and subtle moon phases tattooed onto the inner sides of her fingers of her right hand. Her skin is flawed, however, as there are quite a few fight scars on her abdomen.

Despite coming from a wealthy district and wealthy family, Frankie doesn't often dress to that standard. She spends a lot of her time training in the mountains, so is mostly seen wearing quite scruffy and worn clothes. However, whenever she attends parties or sneaks out of an evening, she can dress quite stylishly. Her attire is often masculine and there aren't any dresses or skirts anywhere in her wardrobe. Yet, despite rejecting her districts' female beauty standards, she impeccably follows the current male fashion trends and pulls them off well.

Anyone who gets to know Frankie will immediately comment on how charming and playful she can be. She is shamelessly flirtatious which has gotten her into quite a lot of relationship troubles already throughout her life. She's dated almost every other gay girl in her year at her Training Academy and has broken many hearts, but the drama hasn't changed her ways. Frankie is also quite mischievous. Despite her parents being strict with her, she often disobeys their rules and sneaks out of an evening to venture around town and get up to no good. She gets into a lot of trouble and has nearly been kicked out of her Academy multiple times. However, she can get quite cocky and big-headed which can sometimes very negatively effect her. She doesn't take failure well and can't cope with being disciplined. She can also frighten away a lot of people when she lets her sadistic side show. She is standoffish and rude, so spends a lot of time alone. She is trusting in very few people and only has a handful of close friends.

Academically, she has never been very 'typically' clever. She detested mathematics and science and couldn't write a decent essay to save her life. However, she's always had a passion for combat, so is training as a career tribute. Ever since she was young, Frankie collected knives and daggers and has quite the talent with blades which she has focused on throughout her years at the academy. Now she is 18, she is the best knife fighter in the academy and is very proud of this. Her collection of weapons at home is very large and very valuable, but she has a few favourites that she always fights with; the first being a old family dagger that was passed down to her and the second being a specially forged 13 inch knife with tribal engravings in the steel and a pommel in the shape of an eagle head. She is very precious about these weapons.

When she isn't training or causing mischief, Frankie quite enjoys vanishing into the permitted areas of mountainous forests for a few days to explore and train her mind. Many would be surprised to discover that she enjoys meditation and adores nature. Additionally, Frankie very much enjoys working out and is a keen listener to metal/heavy rock music.

Frankie's life has already been quite difficult. When she was a young child, she fell behind at school and was teased for being unintelligent. Her parents scorned her for this as well, and she developed an insecurity which she eventually rid of as she got older and discovered her combat talent. Her mother was especially disapproving when she discovered her daughter was gay, and she received a lot of verbal abuse about it for quite some years. Nowadays, Frankie's mother refrains from making her cruel comments as shes grown quite scared of her daughter's abilities. Her father works as one of the top blacksmiths in the district which is how she has so many weapons and he has taught her quite a lot of his knowledge. Frankie and her father get on quite well despite her rocky relationship with her mother. Her mother was also very disapproving when Frankie told her parents she wished to become a career tribute. Her father, on the other hand, fully supported the decision as he knew his daughter had the talent.
