Backstory: Venus comes from a small family. Her mother died of starvation when Venus was only five, her father works in the mines so she barely ever sees him, her older brother is paralyzed from the waist down from having his legs crushed under a large pile of rocks when he was just about to escape a mine caving in.

She has a lot of experience with a bow and arrow since, before he was paralyzed, her older brother taught her how to use one and then she starting practicing with a few of her friends when she had the chance. When Venus was older, around 14 or 15, she starting teaching younger kids how to use a bow and arrow, if their parents would let them, so they could be prepared if they were ever chosen for the Hunger Games.

When Venus was reaped into the Hunger Games, she didn’t show fear or worry, though she was trembling on the inside, but instead made a joke about hopefully “being the next Katniss Everdeen.”
