Cecelia

Cecelia was the District 8 female tribute who participated in the 75th Hunger Games. She was also the victor of an unspecified Hunger Games.

Biography
Katniss Everdeen stated she was about 30. Her motherly instincts caused Katniss to want to become her ally. Effie Trinket expressed dismay and commented "Oh, not Cecelia" when she was reaped for the third Quarter Quell. It seems Effie feels bad for Cecelia because she's the mother of three small children, that clung to her at the reaping.

The Games
In training, it is revealed that her fellow tribute from District 8, Woof, stayed fairly close to her. They eventually invited Katniss to the bug station, who tried asking them about the uprising in District 8, but changed her mind at the last second. It is revealed at the end of Catching Fire that she was one of the victors who knew of the rebellion and was part of the alliance to save Katniss.

Interview
Cecelia joined hands with the other twenty-three tributes as a sign of rebellion in the interviews.

Death
Cecelia was killed in the initial Cornucopia bloodbath. She arrived shortly after Katniss and Finnick had left to go get Peeta. She grabbed a sword and found Enobaria inside the cornucopia. She swung her sword at Enobaria's head but she ducked swiftly. Enobaria quickly grabbed the back of Cecelia's head and threw her into a crate. Enobaria grabbed the sword and stabbed Cecelia in the leg; she tried to do it again but Cecelia ripped the sword away. Enobaria slapped Cecelia across the face, but Cecelia punched and kicked Enobaria brutally, as did Enobaria to Cecelia. Cecelia fought with Enobaria over the sword, until Enobaria stabbed the sword into her chest, killing her. She placed 20th in the games.

Katniss was dismayed by her death
