Tools and Gear

Gear and tools are things used to help a person. Most of the things in the Cornucopia are tools or gear. Weapons are tools in a sense. Tools can be anything from a cooking pot to a Holo.

Sleeping Bag
A sleeping bag is a piece of gear used for sleeping. There are usually three layers that make up the sleeping bag. The outside layer is usually water proof of water resistant, to protect the sleeper from nighttime dew. The middle layer is warm. It insolates the sleeper and keeps body heat from escaping. The last layer is in the inside of the sleeping bag. It if usually made of soft material that feels go against the skin (often made of sheet material). A zipper usually runs all the way along one side of the sleeping bag.

In the 74th Hunger games Katniss had a sleeping bag. It was inside the backpack she got at the horn. The sleeping bag was made of the same fabric as the tribute’s jackets. When she burn her leg she cut a hole in the bag for her leg. When she went to the Career camp she was supposed to get another bag for Rue, but Katniss forgot. During the story she shares the bag with Rue and Peeta.

Wire
Wire is very thin wire. It is provided in the Cornucopia of the 75th Hunger Games. This type of wire was invented by Beetee, and is said to be as thin as hair and stretches for miles. Throughout the games, Beetee guards the wire with his life, but gives it to Wiress occasionally to guard herself. She even pulled it into the water with her after Gloss killed her and her dead body was shot into the ocean, making it so Katniss had to retrieve it. Beetee revealed that to end the Careers' alliance they were going to connect the wire to the water and a tree that was continuously struck by lightning, this would mean when Enobaria and Brutus got anywhere near the damp and electrocuted beach they would die. Katniss and Johanna were sent to connect the wire to the lightning tree, but Katniss was knocked out and during this time Johanna managed to remove both her own and Katniss' Hunger Games tracking chips. When Katniss later followed the wire to Beetee, she found he was stabbed and she figured out his plan to blow up the arena, so she attached the wire to one of her arrows and shot it at the force field after the lightning struck, destroying the arena. Plutarch Heavensbee had purposely put the wire in the arena, for Beetee as Plutarch, Wiress, Beetee, Johanna, Finnick and Mags were all part of a resistance/alliance against the Capitol, in order to keep both Katniss and Peeta safe.

In the 74th Hunger Games, Katniss finds a small coil of wire in her backpack, but has no use for it.
