Name: Sagittaria (Taria) Jade
Age: 13 Gender: Female
District/Area: District 1
Appearance:
Sagittaria has very, very pale skin, almost snow white. Piercing brown eyes, with flecks of gray and green in them. They are relatively normal-sized, but not squinty. Her nose fits her face, and is thin and rounded. Her lips are not full, but not scrawny. They are a natural ruby-red, and she is quite proud of them. Her skin is almost flawless, as she has no acne, but a handful of freckles dispersed along her cheekbones.
Taria is a little thinner than the norm, and 5'1. Her hair is brown, but so dark that it looks black. You can only tell that it is brown in bright sunlight. Her nails are always coloured with a rainbow of hues, but never with "dull" colours (i.e. black, brown, dark shades). Her legs are thin and toned, and are perfect. Her arms are very thin, and she is not strong.
Personality:
Sagittaria has many traits. Around her family, she acts selfish and uncaring, about everything. Around her friends, she is a free and wild spirit, singing, dancing, and talking, quickly and randomly. She feels safe around them, and doesn't care if others think she is crazy when she is with them- because she knows that they will stand up for her and protect her. Around strangers she usually acts quiet and cold, until she is convinced that they aren't looking or thinking about her in the wrong way.
She second guesses herself a lot when it comes to her talents, even though she is very intelligent and can act on stage better than almost anyone. She is stubborn, and is not afraid to wear her emotions on her sleeve. She sometimes believes the world revolves around her, and sometimes that everyone hates her. She cannot tolerate boys, after a middle-school crush made her look stupid in front of the entire school, and broke her heart. She hates them all, and has vowed to never fall in love again.
Her favourite colours are orange, pink, green, and aquamarine. She has a collection of outrageous headbands, her favourite one bright pink with an oversized, sequinned bow to one side. She never wears makeup, for two reasons: Her mother will not let her until she's 14, and one time, after a production, she went to school with stage makeup on, and all the older kids thought she was trying to impress someone. She wasn't. She cries easily if provoked, but after the tears comes a range unlike any other. She has broken 2 kids' arms, 1 kid's finger, and caused too many nose bleeds to count. She likes to read, and is a teacher's pet, for sure.
History:
Sagittaria lives with her mother, father, and little brother, Agate. Her little brother is, she thinks, the biggest drag on her life, and spends almost every day he's not in school playing soccer. Her mother is a physician, only for the very rich, and turns away patients even though deathly ill, because they do not have enough money to pay for her services. Her father is a stay-at-home dad, and is very strict, but less so than her mother. Her mother does not approve of her friends, who are nice, friendly girls, who do not judge, from the same neighbourhood. She barely lets Taria wear what she wants, even though she rarely wears anything inappropriate. Her mother also pushes her very hard for school, and Sagittaria knows that if she so much as misses an assignment, she's done for.
Her father is a little more open to her ideas, and hopes that she will get over her wildness, but will let her embrace it for a little while, at least. She doesn't know this, so she just assumes that he is an uptight party ruiner. Her little brother, while he tries to make Taria's life harder, genuinely admires her and looks up to her. He is actually jealous of her efforts, but could never admit it, of course!
Her friends are many, but she has 5 good friends: CallaLily, Zirconia, Jasmine, Ly, and Verde. The 6 of them have been friends ever since they can remember, and most likely always will be. They stick up for each other and rarely fight. She has a part-time job in a candy store, which she both loves and hates. She is not allowed to just eat candy non-stop, contrary to belief, and must buy it, like everyone else. She loves it because she likes seeing the looks on little kids' faces when they can spend their allowances on candy, and when they sneak a few candies out in their pockets.
Name: Kanadario (Can-ah-dare-yo) (Kenny) Alun (Ah-loon)
Age: 16 Gender: Male
District/Area: District 4
Appearance:
Kanadario is a tall, medium-build boy, who is 16 years old. He looks much older than he is, and many girls in their early twenties flirt with him. Kenny is tanned, the colour of cork even on his toned skin. His hair is a sandy mix of blonde and light brown, and shines in even the smallest amount of sunlight. It is longer than a buzz cut, but sits atop his head, playfully flipping with every movement. His eyes are a deep blue, with no traces of other colours present. They resemble two pools of sparkling water, or Kanadario, in the Aboriginal Hurons' language. He was named because of his eyes. His nose is not noticeable on his face, and is very under pronounced. His lips are copper, and are not huge, but certainly not thin. His chin is round, no cleft or indentations present.
His arms are protruding with very prominent muscles, and his hands are as rough as a tilapia's fins. His nails are uneven and pale, which contrasts greatly with his dark skin. His torso is also very sculpted, but he doesn't think so and is very uncomfortable when it is visible. His legs also have very visible muscles, and his feet are quite large.
Personality:
Kenny has a quiet personality, talking only when he needs to. He is friendly, and has a welcoming face. He doesn't get mad too easily, and usually tries to take conversation away from the topic of himself. He's shy, and can be socially awkward, but not unliked, at times. His voice is soft, as if he talks in a constant whisper.
Kenny, around his buddies, is dubbed "the mute one", because he rarely speaks, and would rather just laugh, or show emotions without words. The only person he speaks to out of his free will is his father, who he genuinely admires. He has never has a girlfriend, and doesn't appear to want one, but secretly he wishes someone would be there for him, other than his father.
He's gentle, and, as everyone in District 4 is, an amazing swimmer. He prefers to gather seaweed and the like, not fish, because he cannot stand the thought of killing something with a "heart and soul". His favourite colour is dark, cadet blue, and he enjoys cycling and lacrosse.
History:
Considering the standards in Panem, Kenny's lived a pretty soft life. He was one of two twins born to his mother and father (obviously), and during a divorce early in the twins' lives, Kenny's father took custody of him, and the mother his sister, who he has yet to meet. His mother moved to District 11, hoping to get as far away from the waters as possible, but Kenny's father, Destan, was determined to raise his son in a wealthier, safer District, and for him to begin training, in case the unthinkable ever happened- if he was Reaped as a Tribute.
His friends, which are few and far between, have always lost patience with him. They start welcoming, and warm, but as their expectations seem to drift away, they too drift away, and most likely, never come back. The fact that he talks so rarely is hard for people to grasp, and friendships are almost always built on words. His current group of "friends" accept him mostly because they need someone to rant to, who won't give advice or try to shut them up.
In school, he doesn't participate in class discussions, and does his work poorly and usually hands it in late or incomplete. When asked if he ever wants a decent job, he replies "Fishermen don't need to know how to write essays on the good government of Panem." Teachers don't know how to reply to this, and usually give up. His father doesn't mind, and tells his son to always do what he wants to do with life, not what others say is right, because...
"Like fishing for sea-urchins, life is a one-shot deal. You either come out with a catch, or you come out with nothing and a bloody hand. It's that simple."
