User blog:The Targaryen of District 4/Xbilliex's 3rd Hunger Games; Destiny vs Jared

Introduction
I know I said I was going to take a break and that these games were going to start during a time when I can actually update but I have just found out that I have a school holiday soon so that's why I've decided to start them now. Also, it might take a while for people to send in characters/tributes since the storyline is quite big.

I appreciate anyone that signs up.

Rules and things to remember

 * 1) Capitol and District 13 allowed.
 * 2) I will write in POVS.
 * 3) I will write outside of the Games as well as in (due to the storyline)
 * 4) The person that has the support of the district of the victor will be named President.
 * 5) You can send in 3 tributes and a victor each.
 * 6) You can send your tributes items.
 * 7) Remember to send in advice for your tributes to increase their chances of survival.

 * How they became victor: Claide was a very unusual citizen of District 11, as she had no problem brutally killing her enemies. Durring the Cornucopia, she ran as fast as she could to get the knifes, axe or an emergency bow, and managed to get it. However, a female career tribute from District 2 was headed to get the knifes too, and reached them before Claide did, so Claide decided to use her fangs and bite her hand in order to get the knifes. It was succesful as the knifes fell out of her hand. However, in order to be safe she won't have to kill the District 2 career tribute anymore, she threw a knife in her neck. After that, she grabbed a backpack and ran hidding in the woods. She managed to get into the final four by basically hunting, and killing a few attackers- when the only ones left were the three career tributes and herself. She realised they'd be after her, so she waited untill they went in the woods, and went out of the forest and set it on fire, while she herself ran to the other side of the arena, where she was rather safe. After an hour, she heard a canon bang, then another two and she became the victor.
 * Weapons: Throwing knifes, axes, bow and arrow, teeth (when it comes to bow, she doesn't have the best aim, whereas she's an expert in knife throwing, she's handy with a close range of axe (can't throw them), she also had her teeth cosmetically changed, and they end with a sharp point and are inlaid with gold, like fangs- just like it was for Enobaria.) She also knows how to climb trees, but can't swim.

The Announcement - Destiny Maysall's POV
It had been two days since Father died. I was forced to visit all of the districts, along with my half-brother Leo, to announce Father's death. The Capitol and the rich districts like 1 and 2 were sobbing their hearts out. This was not the case in the poorer districts. They were celebrating his death with dancing, stolen food supplies and breaks from their jobs.

I wasn't offended by it. Father had never treated the poor districts fairly. But he never treated them like dirt on his shoe to an extent. He carried on and on and on. He even went as far as to convince the rich districts that citizens of the poor districts should be avoided like a disease.

The remarks of my father caused a brief conflict within Panem. That's when I intervened. I was only 13 at the time so most people expected me to not understand what was going on and to be a normal Capitol kid, obsessed with fashion and be upbeat about The Hunger Games.

But I'm not like that. I had my father imprisoned, since he was the ringleader of the conflict. It was the only way to silence everyone.

Then for six months, I became the temporary President of Panem. made new laws. Made Panem a safer place. I abolished The Hunger Games. This made the richer districts angry so the only way I could please them was by increasing production of luxurious items. While I made sure some of the products went to The Capitol, I allowed for the citizens to help themselves to the other half of the products. Just to cheer them up.

As of the poor districts, well I was worshipped. My main priority for those districts was to give them more food. In return, I received gifts from the citizens and endless stories of how young children considered me as their role model. Tears filled my eyes.

But happiness wasn't going to last for long. My father broke out of prison and plotted to overthrow me. He did, successfully.

As punishment for imprisoning him, I was forced to watch him descend Panem into chaos again. He re-established The Hunger Games, reduced the amount of food the poor districts had and returned Panem back to it's old ways.

I tried to stop my father again but he threatened to put me into The Hunger Games. So I had to just observe him.

But now, he's dead. And I'm 15. Leo's now 10.

Yesterday, I declared live on television that I would take a shot at presidency again but not temporary. Permanent. That was when Jared Malone, an old friend of my father's and a Peacekeeper, also offered to be President.

Due to this, the Gamemakers agreed that the tributes for this year's Hunger Games would be forced to support either me or Jared. The person who the remaining tribute was supporting would be named President. I didn't agree with this. I would have preferred an election but I decided to follow along with the Gamemakers' plans.

In a few minutes, I had to reveal that to the districts and The Capitol.

But before I would make my way onto the balcony, I gave myself some time to prepare in the library.

I wore a knee length a-line lace dress and a black fascinator, which sat on the side of my head. Even though I wasn't on good terms with Father, I still had to wear black. If I didn't, I would be put under public scrutiny.

I stared at the mirror, which had been hung up on the wall for years on end. Many considered me beautiful and fashionable.
