Name: Volcanic Activity "Vol"

Age: 17

District: 12

Gender: Male

Appearance: Vol has long, dark red hair that reaches his shoulders, so he usually has it tied back in a ponytail that falls down along his back. His skin is nicely tanned and he has deep, mysterious red eyes. He is very fit and muscular, and his legs are strongly built, giving him an advantage when running. He can be considered quite handsome, however he rarely smiles and always wears an emotionless expression.

Personality: Three words can pretty much sum up Vol's personality; dark, intelligent, and violent. He's never had any friends, and he normally prefers to keep to himself. He doesn't show much emotion on the outside, so you never know what exactly is going on in his head. He could be considered a gothic, and is very quiet and mysterious. Some people that know of his history think he is depressed, because he never smiles. Vol is also very smart, though he would rather keep his thoughts to himself rather than sharing them. He is capable of figuring things out on his own and prefers to have a successful education rather than focus mainly on popularity and gossip, and then not have any brains that would help him pass through the Hunger Games. He volunteered for the Hunger Games so that he can rebuild his life. He appears to be strangely calm on his way to the Capitol, and when he kills another tribute, he will do so without mercy, not a single trace of guilt floating within him. He is considered psychotic but really, he is just misunderstood.

Weapons: Vol has the knowledge of how to use daggers in his blood, since his father would often use that weapon and it is what he used to kill the bear that tried to attack him. While training at the Capitol, he learns how to use a sword and proves to be quite prominent with it.

Strengths: Vol is smart, clever, and cunning. He knows how to slip by without be heard or seen. He's great at recognizing plants, and he's fast and physically strong. He's also a great climber, and although he isn't much of a painter, he can keep himself well hidden without using camouflage.

Weaknesses: Vol cannot swim, since he is from District 12 and has lived mainly in the foster home all his life (since he was 10) which means he's been unable to sneak out into the forest and swim in the lake like Katniss did. This also means he's never learned how to hunt and is not good at making allies.

Bloodbath Strategy: Vol will do the simplest thing there is to do; grab the nearest pack and/or weapon, and run. If someone happens to make the mistake of attacking him, he will wrap his hands around their throat so that they will either choke or he can snap their necks. If they injure him from afar, he will throw a dagger at them or turn and run up to them, sword in hand, and slash them across the chest, stomach, or back with whatever blade he is equipped with. He will then continue to run as fast as he can, and he will not stop running until the Cornucopia is just a golden speck in the distance.
