Dusk District 12 (Done!)

Dusk is a simple child, with a simple face and simple clothes. She is not very pretty, but not ugly. Dusk looks very young for her age, and she hates this because it causes people to treat her differently. She has hair as blonde as the sun in the winter, which tucks neatly right above her shoulders. Dusk's face is very serious, with a touch of boredom to it. It is true though, most of the time her expression is that of boredom. But when Dusk rarely smiles, it is actually quite dazzeling. Her eyes are like a storm, gray as an angry cloud.

Dusk has a slender figure, but is very skinny from her familie's conditions, and is extremely skinny. Her ribs show, and it is quite unactractive. But most of her life her ribs have shone, so it doesn't bother her. Dusk has smallish feet and slender but skinny legs. Also, people are amazed in what situations and condictions she can be in but still come out without a single hair messy, or any of her dirty. Dusk isn't nesesarily clean but she is neat.

Dusk is quite dark. She knows about all the bad things in the world, about the Games, about starvation, about death. All these things except the Games she has faced, a poor family, a dying mother. She is actually quite brave but is living in a serious and guarded shell. She doesn't like to play a lot, and is very protective. But on the inside she's just a lost little girl who desprately wants her mother back.

Dusk doesn't trust anyone and nobody trusts her. She can steal an apple in a flash but she doesn't. She is surprisingly easy to control. Once you get past her hard outer shell you can practically make her do anything, even if she hates it. Dusk hates violence, yet sees it almost every day. Sometimes she's even the one causing it. Often Dusk likes to get away, like squease into a small area between a bed and a nightstand and stay there, thinking for awhile.

Dusk is quite mysterious, and can disapear for hours at a time and nobody can find her. She is also very curious and likes to read books. She is very smart and clever but doesn't put it to use a lot. Dusk is thoughtful, and probably thinks a little too much about things others won't. Like about maybe taking over the Capitol. It would work. But whenever she has a good idea her dad brushes them away and says they will never work. So now she mostly keeps to herself.

Dusk was born into an extremely poor family. She is the eldest of 5 siblings. After she was born her family started begging on the streets for money. When Dusk was 8 years old her mother got a horrible disease. Her father got a doctor and he said that they had medicine for it. We had a party that night, consisting of an orange and some sweet bread the size of Dusk's hand. The sweet bread was the best thing they had ever tasted and the orange was even better. The next day the doctor brough in the medicine and Dusk and her siblings were asleep when it happend. Muffled voices rose from downstairs, and Dusk crept out of bed, carefully stepping over the small bodies of her siblings.

After that night Dusk was never the same. The screaming started as soon as she got a good look at what was going on. Her father had grabbed a knife and was now trying to steal the medicine from the doctor. The screaming seemed to shake the house as her father chased him around the room. Two peacekeepers entered and imediatly disarmed him and took him away. The doctor followed out with a bloody shoulder. Dusk didn't dare wake her siblings yet.

The next night their mother died, Dusk gripping her hand so hard it turned white. Silent tears dripped from her eyes and her voice cracked when she told her siblings to get the shovel. They couldn't aford a priest, or even a stone for the grave so they burried her body without a coffin and made a grave from some sticks. Dusk took charge of the family and had all her siblings cleaning and working. Their father returned two months later, and that was the last time Dusk controled anything. Her father drank a lot but still bossed all the children around. He started forcing Dusk to steal from the stalls, saying it was her fault her mother was dead because she didn't help him get the medicine from the doctor.
