Name: Cynthia Noble
Age: 16
Gender: female
District: 11
Appearance:
mask_21.jpg
Cynthia is taller then most girls and tends to be quieter then most girls her age as well. However she is surprisingly agile witch takes many people by surprise because oh how tall she is. Cynthia has bright green eyes, very dark brown hair (almost black) and usually wears something simple like a sweater. However she will not where anything lighter than blue. Cynthia stands at 6 feet 1 inch tall and weighs in at 144 lbs, and whenever Cynthia is in a corner, people say that that is when she is the most dangerous, both literally when she is in a fight and figuratively
addition to appearance:
Cynthia appears to be calm (or at least try's to) almost all of the time and never shows much emotion. Her skin is kinda on the pale side and she tries to not let herself stand out. Because of this Cynthia tries not to excel at anything. However she does feel like people tend to like her and thinks of her as "not a nobody". The only thing that stands out about her is her physicality and her height.
Personality:
Cynthia is very hot headed and quick to anger and frustration. This allows her to become aggressive to others and she doesn't usually back down. However she usually isn't this way. she is usually protective of others she cares about and usually laid back and relaxed.
Cynthia has a hard time getting to trust others even though she would consider them "friends". However she has friends she does trust and she does anything for them (within reason). She does tend to think things through (occasionally) before taking action, but when she doesn't, she usually messes something up, so with time to think she can make a game plan and go in a short period of time.
addition to personality:
Cynthia never exceled at anything mostly because she never wanted to. This is also because she has a touch of "quiet strength". She never really talks but she is morally good. Whenever she does talk and not hot headed, she has a "can do" attitude along with a "the bigger the better" attitude. However Cynthia is a bit of a perfectionist so this leads back to the short temper that she already has, so you would almost never know.
Cynthia almost knows whenever she is being watched... just kinda clicks whenever she is not alone... but don't ask her why... she will think about it until it hurts, but she will only say "ill get back to you on that one". Many people think that she was scared by something and that is why she is so quiet, but in reality she just wants to be left alone. She almost seems sad sometimes... almost emotionless. Perhaps she just needs some more time to get to know and trust others. However, cynthia always tries to make a good first impression whenever she meets someone new (even if she messes up over and over again when she makes that impression)
Even though cynthia will never let you know, She has many things she is afraid of. Anything dealing with any fear that she has (such as fire or a new/change environment) triggers her into a state of panic and she will almost shut down, and to be honest, Cynthia will never be violent when she is in a state of panic. She will instead become extremely passive and quiet.
Cynthia is also quite reckless and does many things without much thought. many scratches and bruises came from this.
History:
Cynthia was born with ADHD and her family did not have the money to get treatments. She was naturally aggressive and never thought things through when she was young. This lead to many injuries that would heal on its own. However just because Cynthia had ADHD or natural aggression did not mean that she could adapt to an environment or problem. This lead her to be very agile and a "roll with the punches" attitude. However this took time for her and with a lot of effort. When put into a school environment for the first time she struggled to get along with others.
Cynthia always wanted to see the Capital even though she was perfectly fine where she was in district 11. In fact she was interested in almost any other district and enjoys studying other districts and life there. This leads her to watch the hunger games involuntarily. Not because of her wanting to, but because she was curious and wanted to know the people in some way.
addition to history:
a short clip from Cynthia's past
"Finally its time for rest" I thought as I sat next to a dead tree that I was cutting down. I put my ax next to me as I got a brown bag filled with a little water and a sandwich. Before I ate I took a look at the clouds. They were gray, almost completely covering the blue sky. Almost like an old blanket covering a child, the holes and all. I just began eating when a younger boy approached me.
"Um excuse me" he asked "but do you know where I can find Cynthia Noble?"
I raised my head slowly. How did he know my name? Did I know him? It might be best if I stayed calm. "I'm Cynthia" I said " anything I can help you with?"
"Yea" he said "tThe owners of this place said to find you and get me set up for work"
"Oh" I said quickly "I can do that rookie, but first things first, what is your name?"
"My name is Thomas" he said "and please don't call me rookie..." he looked off to the left and mumbled something.
"Um ok rookie." I said "I mean Thomas! Thomas! Sorry..." was that really the best I could do to stop that... I thought, you know better than that.
"Its ok" Thomas said quietly "But can we start with whatever I am gonna do here?"
"Oh right I almost forgot" I laughed " ok so you're going to be cutting down these dead trees... it might look hard but it gets easier once you get used to it."
Thomas looked up, looking at the dead tree. He said "It gets easier? I doubt that but ok"
"Alright well here why don't you finish up this tree I started? Don't worry ill help you." I laughed again " Ok so think of it like this"
"This axe," I said "this axe is your protection, that tree is your foe, a foe so cruel and so harsh that he wishes to kill you now. Defend yourself, and show this foe no mercy"
Thomas winds up, his hands gripping the wooden handle, his knuckles white, his eyes closed. He swings, the tree shakes but does not fall.
I pick up my axe and start to finish up another tree. "That's it Thomas, do it again!"
He swings again and this time the tree begins to fall but does not give up its fight against the axe in Thomas's hand.
"One more time Thomas" I said
he swung, and this time the tree collapses and he lets out a sigh of relief.
"Nicely done Thomas" I said as the tree I was cutting down began to shake. "There is a lesson to learn from this kind of work, the bigger they are the harder they fall"
I swing one last time at my tree and effortlessly, the tree falls hard onto the ground.
We both laughed
"Come on" I said "Lets go back and get out of here, but be here on time... you don't want to get on the owner's bad side early on you know"
"Yea" he smiled " I guess ill see you then
