Female
District 11
LINNEA HAYSMITH
appearance:
Linnea (which is pronounced lin-nay-a.) has dark features, much like the rest of her district. With a dark skin tone, deep brown hair and dark brown eyes. In the night she can easily go unnoticed. She's also small and frail for her age, standing at only 5 foot 2 inches she weighs a mere one hundred pounds from lack of nourishment.
Her most notable features would be her large puffy lips - and her strong and thick eyebrows. Her long hair is usually hidden under a knit cap made from her mother, her locks sitting on one side of her shoulder. Despite her lack of food and proper nutrients, Linnea is considered rather pretty within her district. Most would describe her as cute and harmless - however there is a lot more behind those dark eyes than most will realize.
Linnea dresses very simply, she only really has two to three different outfits that basically just reflect the weather. In the summer she wears a white tank top with cargo shorts - in the winter a black top, cargo pants and knee high boots that cover the bottoms of her pants. In the spring she'll wear her black top and her cargo shorts. The only definable piece of clothing she owns is her cap which she wears over the back of her skull.
personality:
Linnea is some what of a mystery to most, she keeps to herself and internalizes a lot of her emotions. Being conflicted about the death of her twin brother and the involvement she had that led to his demise - she holds onto a lot of guilt. Those feelings materialize in the way she interacts with people and how she makes decisions. Although she tends to make brash choices - she always second guesses herself afterward. Every move she makes - every word she speaks.. will mean a million questions flooding her head.
Linnea puts a lot of effort into her school work, finding it her best escape from the every day struggles in her district. After her brother passed she finds very little enjoyment out of anything in life. The single thing she's found comforting was music and singing. However - she will rarely be seen singing in public. But when she thinks she's alone - she uses the power of song to release what she needs to without actually having to face it head on.
She believes her family also blames her for the death of her brother - given the distance it created within the family. Not being able to find trust or warmth from her own parents - she has a hard time trusting anyone enough to let them through the wall she's built around her. Linnea has the mind set that if people get close to her - she'll only hurt them like she did her own flesh and blood. It's almost as if she sees herself as a human land mine.
code word:
odairtemplate by kateybear ! of caution 2.0. this credit needs to stay hurr or she'll eat your face off.
I was trying to imply how he died without actually saying it. He actually died from hunger in his district, I think there is a part in the history that she says she was "glad he never had to participate in a reaping" because he died before he was even eligible to go into the games. I'll try and edit it to make it more clear.
