There will be a vast mountain range, topped with snowy peaks and scattered with open caverns.

The Rules...
Spoiler
Usual YWS rules.
Absolutely no godmodding. If your character was chosen to die, they better keel over. We will be using the Random Thing Picker for this process, which will be discussed further in the DT prior to starting, so that everything is fair.
No killing off someone's character without their permission and without informing both LoyalHeart and I of the agreement made.
No sex. Romance is allowed, but seriously? That should definitely not be something you're thinking about when fighting for your very survival...
BE ABLE TO POST CONSISTENTLY. Every other day at the very least.
The SB belongs to TheLuckyTurtle and LoyalHeart, meaning that what we say goes. If you have any questions/comments/problems, take them to us or to the DT.
Finally, all OCC should be taken to the DT.

Name: Alex Graveborn

Age: 17

District: 2

Appearance:
Spoiler
Image

Alex has blonde hair and green eyes. He's well built and muscular from working alongside his father back home. He's pretty tall, around 5'11'', and has a bronze complexion.

Personality: Alex is strong, both mentally and emotionally. He's charming and has an aura that lifts the spirits of others around him. He's not quiet but not exactly social, meaning that he's somewhere between outgoing and shy. He's smart and good with tactic, but sometimes acts without using either.
Strengths: His strengths are his stability, charm, and strength. He is also used to hard work.
Weaknesses: His weaknesses are his rashness and awkwardness.

History: Alex worked side-by-side with his father back in the district and learned the hard way that life isn't as sweet as his mother told him when he was a child. One of his best friends left for the games last year and didn't come back, so when the only friend he had left was picked for this year he voluteered himself instead.

Other: Up for love and alliances. Prefers blades of any sort but is skilled with a bow and arrow as well.

Name Halo Strikes
Age: 15
District: Two
Appearance: (No picture sorry!) Description: Shes a tall girl with a lean body, she trained how to fight and work out with her father giving her a both greath figure and knowledge on how to fight, she has blond hair with black eyes and wears a long sleeve shirt, with black jeans.
Personality: Kind and sweet, her training gives her an upper hand against most tributes. She'll take favor on those who she believes deserves her allience.
Strength/weaknesses: Knowledgable on fighting and stratagy she makes for a fine opponet. But she knows nothing on how to survive on the land so therefore she'll be vurnable to poison like plants and animals.
History: With her life being rather easy, all she ever needed to do was go to school and train on a dailiy basis. Her father feared her being taken by the games, so to give her a chance in the games, her father trained her to fight, but due to a recent insident at "The Nut" the girls reaping was rigged by the capitol to ensure she was taken in the games.
Up for alliances?: She'll be looking for allies.
Other: She can't bring herself to kill her district partner.

Name: Gina Appleby

Gender: Female

Age: 16

District: 11

Appearance: She has the traditional dark skin and hair of her district; but instead of the usual matching eyes hers are the brightest blue of the sea, the most noticeable part of her young, childish face. Only a little thing, short and skinny; due to the lack of food in her family she barely shows the signs of becoming a woman despite other girls her age.

Personality: Gina is the quiet one. Shy and finds it hard to talk to people, she finds that this is one of her strengths because it means that people would underestimate her because of her size and personality.
Other strengths include her vast knowledge of plants; she knows which are good to eat and which aren’t. She’s also fast and can get into small spaces pretty easily.
Her weaknesses are obviously her lack of strength and knowledge of weapons and fighting.

History: Growing up with only her father and brother after her mother mysteriously disappeared during an event concerning missing crops in the fields, she has never known the feel of a mother’s arms. She had been working in the orchards for most of her life; starving but surrounded by food.

Other: Up for alliances; she could do with all the help she can get! Up for love. Because she has no experience with weapons her best would probably be something she could use from a distance, so a bow and arrows or a gun...

Gender: Female

Age: 17

District: 12

Like the picture but with big green eyes. Average height, around 5'5". Has a nice athletic build, long blonde hair that goes down to her middle back. Tan skin and Side bangs that cover one of her eyes. Usually keeps her hair down, using her beauty as an advantage in the games. She likes to wear skinny jeans with a black tee shirt and gloves that show her fingers.

Personality: Rayah has a sense of humor. She's very nice and somehwhat childish. She has two older sisters, and one younger brother. She makes lots of people laugh, is very open towards people. She is good with the bow and arrow, is fast and sly. She isn't good at math or reading or any other subject. She's great at hand-to-hand combat, was trained by her father when she was younger so she has an advantage in that. She's not very educated and is unterestimated in that. She also drinks...pretty much acts like she's 21.

History: As said in personailty, she has two older sisters, Jesse and Becca and one little brother- Christian. Her father is onto coal mining, but her family is poor and very unorganized. She works at a market in the district, selling the products that other people have brought in for money. She looks more like her mother than anything, gets good deals with other people in trade. She has about three friends in the district, goes to school with them.

Other: She prefers the bow and arrow for a weapon, maybe small knives she uses for climbing trees. She is up for allies. And up for love.

I would like the female from district 3 please. I will send you my profile shortly. I would also like to be the male from that district but I don't know if you allow the acting of two characters...

If you think you can handle it, you can have two posts. You just need to be able to post consistently.

Name: Ellee Shade

Gender: Female

Age: (14-19) 16

District: 10

Appearance: Ellee has dark red shoulder-length hair, pale skin, freckles, and dark brown eyes. She's extremely tall with a delicate, small nose. She has thick, dark eyelashes and small lips.

Personality: Ellee is a determinedly optimistic person. There's something elegant in the way she holds herself and looking at her, you'd think she was quite delicate. She isn't. She's pretty thick-skinned in more ways than one. Her strengths are physical and emotional strength, her agility and her knowledge of food. Her weaknesses are her inability to kill a fly, much less another person. Also, she sometimes has trouble concentrating sometimes, and she's unlikely to recieve any sponsors since she doesn't look like someone who would last long.

History: Both her parents died in a work-related accident at the age of eight. She moved in with her aunt and her five cousins. Later, her other aunt passed from sickness and her two children moved in. The surviving aunt's health began to decline and Ellee, being the second oldest, took on as much responsibility as she could.

Name: Joseph Appleby

Gender: Male

Age: 19

District: 11

Appearance: Very tall and well built; despite the lack of food in his district he works out a lot so has a pretty good body. With very short, dark hair and dark skin, so dark he’s almost completely black; his eyes a hazel/orange colour. When he smiles a dimple appears on his right cheek, but he doesn’t often do that.

Personality: Stubborn and confident, although he isn’t a loud mouth and is a real gentleman.
Whilst he grew up his father taught him how to defend himself, simple things like boxing and wrestling, but he also taught him how to use a knife in the right way. Another strength is (like his sister) his knowledge of nature.
A weakness is that he can never win because he would never kill his sister; so he’ll do all he can to save her.

History: His sister is Gina Appleby; so the same.

Other: Preferred weapon is a knife and a gun, because they’re pretty easy to use. Up for alliance; if there is somebody he can trust not to kill his little sister. Up for love but that’d have to be someone special to get his attention away from his one goal.
