Name: Aem (Pronounced ‘AM’ like the quote “I think, therefore I am.” Her real name is Elizabeth Ringolde, but she only goes by her nickname.)
Age: 18
Gender: Female, although she is mistaken for male
District: 7
Appearance:
She is roughly 5’8 and has long arms. She was born in to the lumber district, so she has a strong jaw and arms. Though she is strong compared to people from other districts, she is on the weaker side of her own district. She usually climbs to the tops of trees and sits there for hours on end, soaking up the unfiltered sun. Because of this habit, she is much tanner than her family and has lighter hair. Her hair color is an almost dirty blonde color, compared to her parents brown hair. She has large, blue eyes with a green stripe running through the left eye. Her arms are long and slender, but rather strong from her always climbing trees.
Her hair is close to her head, so it doesn’t get caught on branches, and she usually has it spiked up. This didn’t happen on purpose, at first. She had sap and dirt in her hair constantly that would keep her hair sticking up when she would run her hands through it. This would give her the look of a boy, and several people mistake her for a skinny man. She is attractive to most of the females of her town (that think that she is a man) and she knows this, usually using it to get free food or books. Boys were always attracted to her for some reason, but played it off as something else until they found out that she is a girl. She honestly doesn’t care much if someone knows her gender, as long as she stays attractive and gets free food she’s fine.
She is very quick on her feet and has a great reaction time, due to her dozing off in tree tops without remembering which are to be cut down that day. She also has deft hands and is good at crafting traps and disabling equipment. Hand to hand combat or any fighting in general is not her thing. Her long arms usually get in the way and tangle her up, causing her to fall or injure herself in the process.
Personality:
She is a very independent person, and usually only talks if she’s close to the person. She relies on her facial expressions and crazy body motions to get her point across. When she is alone with close friends, she curses like a sailor. She is also quick to anger and quick to judge. People tend to try and be overly nice, as to not upset her. Due to her not talking, people think she is mute or deaf and would sign to her. Being the sarcastic person she is, she learned sign language and uses it more than actual talking. Those who have heard her talk say that her voice is like “the first sip of cool water on a hot day” and always want to hear more. Once she talks, everyone knows she is a girl, for it is a higher pitched and sultry sound.
She is always eager to help her grandmother, and always helped her parents before they died. She doesn’t like to actually work, though, and always skips out on people by hiding in the forest. She also likes to think of herself as someone that would read a lot, but she gets distracted by something and ends up leaving her book in some random tree.
She comes off as flirty to her close friends, and she does this on purpose. Since she knows she's extremely attractive, she flirts to make people do what she wants. This wasn't on purpose, at first, but now she just finds it fun. She's been called sadistic by her grandmother, but she says that she just has a different sense of curiosity and likes to see how people tick. She is also very good at reading people, and is always able to tell when someone is upset with her so she can hide from them and not deal with it. She puts off an air of her not caring about much, but she cares a lot about everything. She is always having a constant conversation in her head and overthinks a lot. This tends to make her have breakdowns every once-in-a-while, and she just curls up in her bed and sleeps it off. This breakdowns include her screaming (just screaming, no words involved, she just screams for some reason) as she grabs her head, she then rolls in to her bed and cries herself to sleep. She also has constant nightmares, and has yet to find a cure for this other than not sleeping very often.
History:
She was born in to a humble family, and was an only child. She had the perfect childhood and loved going to school. Her mother was killed in a lumber accident when she was 13, and her father committed suicide two years later from his depression. This was when she moved in with her grandmother and continued on with her life like nothing even happened.
Before all of this happened, when she was around 9 years old, she watched a power-hungry peacekeeper kill her close friend, Meredith, for attempting to leave the gated area of the forest. He saw her and told her that it was an accident and if she told anyone about it, he would kill her family. After this, she stopped talking so that she wouldn’t tell anyone. After her parents died, she had no reason to keep quiet about it, but she was still scared of that peacekeeper and didn’t want to try her luck.
When she was 17, she got the opportunity to travel to district 6 to help deliver supplies. When she got there, she didn’t want to leave. She had decided that she wanted to get out and travel, even though the Capitol wouldn’t allow her. Since then she spends her days in tree tops, looking over the fences and houses, dreaming about getting out. And when she gets her name drawn for the next Hunger Games, she realizes that she doesn’t want out that bad.
