Name: Desiree Anders

Age: 16

Gender: Female

District: 3

Appearance: Either posted above or I'm posting the moment I post this because I derped and forget :3

Personality: A brilliant-minded person, who thinks fast, is caring yet also shy around others, she finds herself to be very isolated but very capable for the simple knowledge involved with staying alive.

Weapons: Brain (primarily with knowledge but also a little tinkering too, I suppose), Daggers

Backstory: Desiree into her family with her twin sister, Leanna. Being that the two were very different, the butted heads... constantly. Basically, if one wanted to sit around tinkering with wires and such (Desiree), the other wanted to go outside and play with other kids (Leanna). From the start, they've been off-set, and it was very obvious from the beginning. Desiree preferred to sit around reading while Leanna wanted to jump around and play with frilly things, which was always something Desiree found off.

In school, Desiree was quickly labeled one of the odd-ball kids, since usually a love for having your nose in a book didn't develop until later on in life, around middle school or high school. So, for Desiree, she was an outcast and her sister became the golden star of the school. Due to this, this caused Desiree to become very isolated from interactions and gave her a small sense of social anxiety that would grow into something larger with her.

Although several other kids soon found a love for reading and technology around the time of middle school, Desiree was still the outcast of them all. Leanna used her sister as her advantage to staying ontop, which is something that would later effect Desiree emotionally. Due to Leanna, Desiree became isolated and Leanna just learned to fester of this, using her sisters smarts to keep up her own grades and use that to her populatiry.

Come high school, Desiree is pulling up to the top of her class, surpassing other kids with her profound knowledge. Several people tried to become her friend but because of all the emotional stress she was put under at a young age, she set herself apart from others and was isolated, not coming into her light and not appreciating the friendship offered to her. However, there was one girl who made an impression on her and was her best friend throughout this. Her name was Ellie Belleview, and she knew exactly what Desiree was going through, having a twin sister herself who was all high-and-mighty. Ever since they figured this out about each other, they have been best friends for life... That is, of course, until the reapings came along.

They both went to the reapings, not expecting much. No one ever got picked that wasn't a someone, so why matter? Still, when Ellie's name was drawn, it didn't stop Desiree from volunteering for her friend, which was strange and something out there. It was something different for Desiree, definitely life changing. Saying goodbye, though, was probably the hardest thing for her that shoved her back into isolation.

Strengths: Desiree has a brilliant mind-set, or extraordinary way of thinking that makes her unique to others. She is also very slim, which makes manuvering very simple for herself.

Weaknesses: She is not an athletic person, making simple things like running a bit difficult for herself. She is also very isolated, which means finding allies is very difficult.

Fears: Isolation, which she has to deal with all the time, frankly.

Tokens: A small locket that she has never quite gotten to open, but her mother says contains a picture of Desiree and Leanna when they were little children.

Alliances: Someone like-minded, and that she can feel won't betray her. She probably won't be involved with large alliances, but if she is, then there is a chance that she won't be the most active person.
