Name: Fay Alban

Backstory: Fay grew up in a poor family in District 8. Her mother was a previous victor, and her father worked with machines, particularly cotton gins in District 8, even though he didn't need the money. Her parents had a total of eleven children, she being the fourth oldest. Her father loved her very much, but her mother spent most of her time alone. Fay never knew her mother very well. Growing up, kids in her class were jealous because of how wealthy her mother was, and was treated poorly because of it, so outside of home, she had no healthy relationships. When Fay was thirteen, her mother, in rage, pulled a gun out and shot her husband, with all eleven kids in the house. Fay took the two youngest twin boys and rushed them to her room after hearing the gunshots. Even though she didn't see her father being shot, she knew it had to be her mother. She hid them in a closet, and saw one of her sisters, Maria, and instructed her to take care of the twins. She eventually found the fifth-born child, her younger brother Aaron, in the kitchen. He had the closest relationship to his mother, so the two went upstairs and carefully approached her. Aaron carefully approached his mother with Fay on his side. When Fay's mother saw the two, she held her gun up, and backed into a wall. Her hands were shaking, and sweat fell down her face. She apologized to Aaron as she raised her gun and pointed it at Fay. As she shot it, Aaron pushed her out of the way, and she fell onto a blanket, under which was her father. Her father wheezed a little bit, and Fay was shocked. She thought for sure her father had died. Her mother, hearing this, shot at the blanket. The last words her father heard from the world was his wife, telling him that she hated him. Aaron grabbed Fay and darted off, but not before her mother shot Fay in the back. She cried out for Aaron, but he lugged Fay off. She eventually went unconscious, but Aaron rushed Fay back to her room, where Maria and the twins were. The five hid in a large closet that Fay had, and his for nearly two days. Their mother was still in this state, and she found them. She pointed her gun at Aaron's head, shouting that he was a traitor. Fay rushed off with the twins, and watched her sister also get gunned down before her. Fay tried to run out the door, but it was locked. Her mother followed her to the door, and took the gun and pointed it at one of the boys, only two months old. Fay screamed, and tackled her mother. She grabbed the gun and pointed it at her mother, and for a little more than an hour, her mother sat in a corner, shouting crude things at Fay, but it eventually stopped, and she began crying. Suddenly, the doors busted open, and Peacekeepers began hooting and hollering. Fay looked in confusion at what was going on. They later explained that they had hijacked her mother and put surveilance cameras in the house so the Capitol could watch this. Fay shouted, screamed, and asked how many of her siblings were killed, other than Aaron and Maria. The oldest, Gregory, and the third-born, Jason were killed, then the fifth and sixth oldest, Aaron and Maria, then the eighth, Pamela. Five of her siblings and her father were killed because her mother was programmed by the Capitol, so they could watch and laugh. Almost like the Hunger Games. She sat down in a corner and cried like her mother. The two twins lay, on the ground, unaware of what happened, but the other three eventually made their way down and watched in horror as they lugged the dead bodies of their siblings and father out. Their mother said she was sorry over and over again, but none moved closer. After that, they lived uncomfortably, and lamented over the deaths of their family members. Since then, Fay has become interested in psychology, after seeing what happened to her mother. She began doing research over various conditions, particularly forms of PTSD, after seeing not only her mother, but now her siblings' lives deteriorate. She recently took in a girl named Vennica, who Fay's grown attatched to, in a sisterly kind of way, and became her unofficial psychologist. She had been raped by a Peacekeeper in District 3 and sent to District 8 to keep her from speaking of it. Like Fay, Vennica had been victimized by Peacekeepers. She constantly talked of her boyfriend Noma, who she wanted dearly to come back to her.
