Right, that's the end of it.
"May the odds be Ever in your favor."
The Hunger Games. A book based RP
The Hunger Games.
The Hunger Games takes place in an unidentified future time period after the destruction of North America, in a nation known as Panem. Panem consists of a wealthy Capitol and twelve surrounding, poorer districts, originally 13.
As punishment for a previous rebellion against the Capitol, every year one boy and one girl between the ages of 12 and 18 from each district are selected at random and forced to participate in the Hunger Games, a televised event where the participants, or "tributes", must fight to the death in a dangerous outdoor arena until only one remains.
There is just one rule. Kill or be killed.
The tributes can be either from the poor side of the district, or the wealthier side of the district.
The Districts are as follows:
District 1: Luxury items for the Capitol
District 2: Medicine/ Mining/ Providing Peacekeepers
District 3: Electronics/Techology
District 4: Fishing
District 5: Breeding/Splicing DNA
District 6: Scientific Research.
District 7: Lumber and paper products
District 8: Factories
District 9: Food Processing
District 10: Livestock
District 11: Agriculture
District 12: Coal mining
<s>District 13: Graphite mining and nuclear power</s>(Been destroyed)
Main Information:
It's now up to you to decide.
Decide who your character shall be; their strengths, their weaknesses.
How long will they last in this game of survival?
Now, you need to sum things up.
Let's use district 12 for example: if your character is from the seam, which means lower working class- coal miner ect... than they will be poor, and possibly quite malnourished, and have to sign up for the teserai, which means you get grains, and a small amount of food for your family but there's a catch each time you sign up your name gets added into the games once more for each family member, making you more prone to being chosen for the games.
(Every time you sign up for the teserai your name gets entered once for each family member say you have 5 mouths to feed when your twelve your name will be entered 6 times, when your 13, 12 times, 15 its entered 24 times, by the time your 18 it's entered 42 times.)
Or you could be from the wealthier part of the district, and have enough money to not sign up for the teserai, this causes quite a separation between the classes, thus making more interesting games.
However you could imagine in district 1, where they are closer to being the Capitols pets, they are treated more fairly, and have more food, they could possibly train for the games, even though this is against the rules, and you could be punished severely by the peace keepers if caught, but for districts like these, this is not the case, and the games is a huge honour instead of a punishment.
Okay, so hopefully now you get the gist of how fair these games are.
Now the tributes are chosen they are taken to rooms for their family, friends ect.. to say their goodbyes.
They then go onto a train, they have their own dorms, and can eat as much as they like of food from the capitol and other districts.
On the train is where they meet their mentor, a previous victor from the games.
If theres a male victor he mentors the male tribute, like wise for the female if there's a female victor, however if there's one victor they mentor both male and female victor, either privately or openly whichever the tributes choose.
When they arrive at the Capitol, they get all dolled up by their styling team, and get driven around so they can wave and say hello and blow kisses and stuff, gaining *sponsors, fans ect..
Then there is a week of training, where the tributes learn how to use weapons, camouflage, and learn what plants ect.. they can eat.(They may have a specific talent, but lets be realistic if you're poor that's not very likely)
After that week you get scored on a specific talent of your choice 0 being the lowest 12 being the highest.
If you get a high score you will most likely get good sponsors. (*Meaning they send you stuff in your hour of need- food medicine ect...)
Once that's over with the tributes get interviewed individually by Caesar Flickerman, and the crowd gets to know the tribute a little more,, the tribute should have a specific kind of "style" like controlled, nice, bubbly, silent and strong, ect... whatever is going to get them sponsors.
The very next day the tributes are sent in to the arena..to fight to the death until one remains, they then win their district honour, luxuries and the victor gets a luxury house in the victors village and lots of money to keep them supplied for the rest of their lives, their family may live with them.
The victor is also then immune from the games.
Okay so I have that over with...(This has taken AGES believe it or not, considering I had to attempt to word it correctly...I still think it's rather confusing, any help just contact me.)
Rules:
There can only be ONE boy and ONE girl from each district.
We need at least 3 characters to be sacrificed at the cornucopia .
You do your own interviews, but I shall be the game keeper. (ie. control weather, keep the tributes together to fight or team up ect..)
Some have to die, not quickly but some need to die in order for it to continue, I understand you get attached.
There can be romance, the whole forbidden love thing can be rather intriguing to act out but I don't think anything to graphic please.
Also, make sure you interact, please don't be a "Loner" in this as it'll die quite fast, and I want it to be ongoing.
Okay so the character sheet.
