Name: Grania Goldheart

District: 11 (9, 10)

Gender: Female

Age: 16

Personality: Grania can have a lot of personalities, it depends which event is happening on the time. She is usually smiling and sweet and mostly kind to everyone else around. Before the event on her past which killed her parents, she was extremely selfish and never wanted to share her toys and clothes. But when they were killed and she was moved by the government to the orphanage of her district, she changed all her personality. She begun to think about the good things on her life and remember that many girls on her district are poorer and have a worse history. So, she is usually smiling and helping everyone else. Grania is not the type which the girls like to hang around with, because she is a bit shy and does not like to stay at the center of the attention. All the kids on her orphanage like of her life style and she loves them all, except for the head master called Julio. She hates that man, and she can do anything on the world to slit his throat off. When she wants to destroy something, she thinks on Julio spanking her parents and Cotrao to the death while she was paralyzed on the corner, just looking at it like a small prey. She never wants to look his face again, because she knows that she will not control herself.

Backstory: Grania's history started some years before her birth. Her mother was always a brave and carefree woman and her mother built the biggest wheat industry in the entire district. Although, her father was always a stupid and drunk man who worked as janitor in the worst school around Panem. By a coincidence, her father called Brieno was found by some peacekeepers drinking some beer next to the wheat industry of Grania's mother. The peacekeepers thought in killing Grania's father, but her mother did not accept it. She fell in a love instantly with that man. They two begun to share some hugs and kisses, and they started to live together. When Grania's mother who was called Geralda, or simply known as Gera, got pregnant of their first children, they two decided to marry with each other. They got married on a simple marriage inside a small house on the poorest part of the district. Their first kid born with normal circustances, and they had a happy relationship during years and years. They two started to rule over a cotton industry too and they begun to be extremely rich. When Grania born, the family was with many problems. They lost both of the industries and they were selling the rest of their few supplies on the center of the square on the district. Grania's older brother. who was called Cotrao, loved to take care of their grain farm shops with his parents, but Grania had a perfect life. She was raised during all her childhood just eating what her parents selected for her and she had what to eat and drink, while her parents and Cotrao were selling cotton and wheat on the square. She always tried to help them on the store, but they never let her work for them. So, the disaster happenned on her family. One day, some peacekeepers purchased the wheat, but the head peacekeeper of her district (Julio, 47 years old) was very fierce, annoying and brutal, so he was always trying to destroy some families. In one day when they were buying the wheat, Julio denounced Grania's family to the Capitol and he said that them were eating the food that they produced. They all denied it, but the Capitol was trusting on Julio. One day, Geralda was tortured by some peacekeepers in public and Brieno became drunk and stupid, like before his marriage. Cotrao tried to manage Grania's life, so they two ran away of her home and went to the poorest orphanage in the district. During the first days there, the orphanage seemed the heaven compared to their early life. All the kids liked Grania and Cotrao, and they were really happy during that time. But when Grania was just thirteen years old, the leader of the orphanage was found dead on the street's and the old head peacekeeper assumed the poor orphanage. Grania and Cotrao were terrified, fearing their lives. Torturing and abusing were unallowed on the district, but no one knew that Julio was spanking and torturing Cotrao during all his childhood. One day, Cotrao was found killed on the orphanage, but the Capitol did not blame Julio for it. He continued as the head master of the orphanage and kept torturing Grania for years and years. All that Grania wanted was her family back. But when she was fourteen years old, she managed to run away out of the orphanage and she lived by herself on the forest on her district. Anyway, Grania never forgot her happy and carefree personality and always tried to camouflage the pain in her soul using a wide smile. So on the reaping day, she exited the forest with a sad look and surprise... she was reaped for the Hunger Games. She tried to appear confident, but she knows in the deep of her soul that she has no chance. But she needs to try, for her mother and father, for Cotrao.

Height: 5'7

Appearance:I imagined Grania with two appearances and you can decide which you imagined her:

Option 1: Grania has a long and straight dark brown hair, which falls exactly over her shoulder. Her eyes are considered empty and the grey colouring it makes her eyes something depressed. She has a pale porcelain skin, but some scars around her body due her torturing sessions on the orphanage.

Option 2:  Grania has a long and curly dirty blonde hair, which falls over her shoulders. She has some light blonde highlights on the front. Her eyes are light gray, and it is extremely hypnotic. Her skin is a porcelain white colour, and she has some scars around her body due her torturing sessions on the orphanage.

However, I will give you both of the lunaiis with the appearances. The lunaiis will be up later.

Weapon: Grania never worked with any type of weapons before the time that she went to the forest, but when she arrived at it, she begun how to work with bow and some arrows. Also, she can throw some knives if she needs to.

Strengths: Grania is very fast, and extremely quick. She can sprint between two places in the highest velocity ever. She is really flexible, and she can work with many types of gymnastics. It means that she can divert and dodge a lot and quickly, and it is an advantage on the arena. By the way, Grania can feel pain and never scream or shout, because she passed mre than three years being tortured by Julio. Being nimble as a monkey, she can climb any type of thing. Trees, rocks, a building, everything. Also, she knows about some plants and if they are poisonous or no.

Weaknesses: Grania never had strenght enough to hold some bags full with wheat and cotton, and she was becoming weaker and weaker each day feeling the pain of the tortures. Because of that, she is extremely fragile and vulnerable to extreme hot or cold. Also, she sucks at swimming. She saw a lake just once and she can only swim for some quick minutes. She will probably drown or make an aquatic animal like her and then, trip on their back.

Fears: Anginophobia, fear of Choking. Julio never choked her, but she saw he doing it to her brother, so she fears it a lot.

Interview Angle: She sucks socializing around with people who are not from her district and she is a bit shy, so she will just try to act as younger as she can. When she feels that the interview is starting to be extremely boring, she will put her old her personality off. She will look a bit young and innocent, so the other tributes will not pay attention at her. She is not able to say about her parents, her brother and her worse life on the orphanage, so she will just ignore it while the questions fly around.

Bloodbath Strategy: Grania will aim at a bow and a quiver with arrows. She will spend the sixty seconds of the countdown seeing the arena around and checking if her allies are close enough to an attack. When the gong rings, she will dack off her platform and aim directly at her future bow. She will catch the bow and kill if necessary to grab the quiver with arrows. Then, she will guard it and flee away. If she sees a backpack or something important on the way, she will pick it up and guard it to herself. If anyone who is not her ally approaches her way, she will shoot one arrow at the person and run away quickly. She will try to go to a place with wild life enough for her.

Token: She has a little silver necklace given by her brother some hours before his death. On the center of the necklace, we can find gold in a shape of heart, which reminds of Grania's surname, Goldheart. She always touch at it to remember of her brother.

Alliance: She will try any alliance, but never with someone from the career districts. She cares about the size of the alliance, because she is a little shy. So the alliance has a maximum of five people. She will show her plants and archery skills secretly to her allies, so they will be able to see her real strenght.
