Zynna Yondall
Age: 16
District: 9
Appearance:
Zynna is about 5' 9" and weighs around 135 pounds, her body is lean and strong from hard work and long hours spent hunting.
She has dark brown hair with golden blonde streaks in it, which is unusual, but one hundred percent natural. Her hair falls down slightly past her shoulders, but she usually keeps it tied back when she's hunting. She has dark, hazel eyes with flecks of gold in them. They are beautiful, but not her most prominant feature.
The first thing people tend to notice is right under her eye. She has a dark, jagged scar running from below her left eye down to her jaw from an animal attack. She is tan all year round, partly because she spends so much time outside, but it is also mostly her natural skin color. She is almost always wearing supple leather hunting clothes, except when she is in school.
Personality:
Zynna is a hard worker, and gets easily annoyed by those who slack off. She hates working with others, because she tends to feel like she could get things done quicker and easier without their help, and she tends to just push them aside and do all the work by herself anyway, just to prove she can.
She is, however, a great friend who is very loyal, but you have to really earn that friendship. She won't talk to just anyone, and stays on the sullen, anti-social side. She is sensitive about her family, her life, and her past, and won't talk much even if she is your friend.
She is very observant, which helps when she is tracking animals. She is intelligent and learned from her mother all about wild plants and animals. She is strong,and would give anything for her family and friends. She works hard to take care of the people she cares about. She is really good with a bow and arrows, and she uses her skills to hunt and help earn money for her family. Besides, if she didn't hunt, she feels like she wouldn't know what to do with herself. This is at least something useful she can do.
History:
Zynna used to be an open and talkative person who was always smiling, until the day her seven year old sister, Nin, was killed while hunting, in the same attack that gave Zynna her scar. She and Nin were very close, and after Nin's death, Zynna closed up and focused all her attention on hunting and taking care of her family so she wouldn't have time to talk about it. She tries to make herself useful to her family, also because she feels partly resonsible for her sister's death.
Her mother owns a tailor shop where she makes clothes out of the animal skins Zynna brings home. It's a small business, and doesn't bring much money, but they make do with what they can get. Her father lives in district 4, though. Zynna's parents are divorced and Zynna never gets to see or talk to her father.
Zynna is the oldest of four children. She has a brother who is fourteen, and two sisters, Kai, thirteen, and Fara, twelve. Nin was the youngest. Her brother and the older of her sisters, Kai, now live in District 4 with their father, and Zynna, along with her other sister, live in District 9 with their mother.
