History:

Kiki was born Kendra Kang, in the Capitol, to parents Demetrius and Elsadora Kang, a couple of both wealth and repute. Demetrius was a politician in good standing, and eventually was appointed as an advisor to President Snow. Elsadora played her role as a philanthropist and socialite wife. She organized and attended lavish parties for the Capitol elite, usually under the guise of helping the underprivileged in the poorer Districts, even though it was widely known such charity rarely reached its intended recipients.

Therefore, for the first ten years of her life, Kiki grew up in the lap of Capitol luxury, attending the best schools, enjoying the best toys, and receiving the care of the best nannies and stylists. This began to change, however, shortly after her tenth birthday. All was not right in President Snow's cabinet. Demetrius Kang, through perhaps a long delayed stroke of conscience, or a very patient long con, began surreptitiously proposing reforms to Panem laws that, to many, seemed both radical and dangerous. Rumors circulated that he even sought to pass legislation to halt the Hunger Games, citing an unfair disadvantage to Panem's poor due to the tessarae stipulation. When asked about his supposed outrageous platform by the media, he reportedly said, "When I look at the faces of the Tributes dying in the Arena, I see my own little girl, nearly old enough for the Reaping herself. I know I would do anything to keep her safe, and it is my duty to do the same for all children of Panem. The system is unfair."

The move and the interview would prove disastrous for Advisor Kang and his family. Not only was the legislation voted down, but a there was a public outcry against Demetrius in the Capitol and wealthier Districts, and many called for his resignation. He stood his ground, and was viciously outvoted while





Presentation: What's the outside like? Their personality? How do they present themselves to the world? This section, along with motivation, should be the meat and potatoes of your app, with at least 2-3 paragraphs.

Motivations: And what's going on on the inside?

Setting: How do you plan for this character to react to the Games setting? We are not looking for specifics, but more of a general idea for how you plan to play your character reacting to repeated, violent events, and their agency being stripped away from them.



SAMPLES
First Person Thread: An example of a first person post, at least 200 words minimum. Feel free to use introspection and scene setting if your character is not chatty. Please use one of the two following prompts:



For Capitols OCs and AUs: Somehow you ended up privy to a private post just gushing about how much they just LOVE the new games, how they think they are the best thing since sliced bread. Then the poster (Your friend? Some random person from a party who decided they wanted to send you their private thoughts? A rival trying to pin you into an uncomfortable spot?) namesdrops you for your opinion on the new format, versus the quaint, old-fashion style of the game.

Everyone on the broadcast is just waiting for your input.



Prose: 200 word minimum. To mimic the style of the game, please write your third person sample based on the following prompt:

You have been set in a room in front of the Gamemakers to be judged on a score of one to twelve, with one being the lowest and twelve being the highest. The Gamemakers sit safely behind a force field and watch, and you are provided with an array of weapons and targets, though no gun to be seen.

If you are a new Tribute, you have been plucked from home and rushed in here with only a brief explanation of what is going on: You are about to enter an Arena death match that only one person will make it out of, and impressing these people will help you live.

If you are someone from Panem, then you are very unlucky. You know what's going on but... you were told all the Tributes were from a foreign land now. So why are you in front of the Gamemakers fighting for your life now? Are you a criminal, a traitor, deeply in debt? Or do you even know why you were shoved in to this room?



What is your character scored: When scoring your character take into account their physical strengths and weaknesses, mental strengths and weaknesses, and crowd likability. The score on your app has nothing to do with the Gamemakers session in your sample, it is an OOC score for mod purposes and should not be based on how they actually are in front of the Gamemakers. In addition, please list their powers, for Arenas that allow powers.



Token: Please list one item that the character would want with them in the Arena as a personal memento or symbol. This item can be anything from a piece of jewelry to a family photo, as precious as a gemstone or as innocuous as a slinky and anywhere in between. If this is a weapon or something else that gives an unfair advantage, it won't be allowed, but the Tribute's stylist team will make sure the Tribute gets a pin with a symbol of their weapon on it. Pins are all the rage right now. This token can be changed at will later so don't worry too much about it if you can't think of anything.



Additional information: Questions specifically for certain character types. Feel free to delete if it does not apply to your character type. Please answer all that do (For example, a past victor AU would answer both their question, and the past victory question)


Hunger Games AU and OC: What is your reasoning for the Capitol to include your canon doppelganger if they app in? What district is your character from? How do they feel about home?
