Name: Mew Windlass

District: 4

Gender: Female

Age: 12

Height: 4ʻ7

Personality: Mew is energetic, outgoing, and eccentric. Unlike her cousin Wave, who is known for his serious attitude, she is adventurous and enjoys long distant journeys away from her home. She also has an attachment to birds, another fact that contrasts her with her relative. She adores seabirds the most, as her family actually owns a breeding home for these types of aviaries. She can name countless of species on sight thanks to this, as she was trained by her father Silver to be capable of identifying different varieties of fowl. She's also a kind and courteous girl that does not mind getting down and dirty to help someone. She's compassionate to anyone that comes across to her as a loving person, but does not appreciate it when people mention her height. She despises remarks about how tall she is, and hates being belittled because of this trait of hers. She doesn't mind being flattered, but dislikes being referred to as cute. She finds adorable people to be the ones that need help, rather than the ones giving others aid. Similar to Wave, she also detests liars, such as his father Aer. Deceptive individuals disgust her as a whole, and she also incorporates the Capitol with this bunch. She loathes the concept of the Hunger Games, and would be more than happy to see it disappear.

Appearance: As much as she would hate to admit it, Mew is an adorable little girl. Her appearance is somewhat similar to that of her cousin Wave's, as he took mainly after his mother rather than his father. He typically keeps her locks held back in the form of dual braided pigtails, while the rest of her bangs cover the majority of her forehead. Like most people in her family, she has their usual hazelnut-like curls. She normally keeps a blue flower hair clip from her mother Ivory in her hair, although this isn't her actual token, and will probably either leave it behind or take it regardless. She has olive skin that tans fairly easily whenever she is out and exposed to the rays of the sun, which is often considering her place of origin. A trait alike of Wave, she has gleaming sapphire-sky eyes that seem to radiate and shimmer. She is quite petite and short, and isn't as athletically formed as the other people from her district, as she doesn't do Career training like the others as she usually helping out in the breeding home. Her actual token, a golden pendant, is connected to a fine piece of black silk that is tied around her neck span.

Weapons: In spite of the fact that Mew has not trained to be in the Hunger Games, she still has her perks thanks to her life helping out her family with the seabirds. Because of this, she has unconsciously learned how to use several weapons without even realizing it, as she completed tasks that incorporated these two types of weaponry on a daily basis. Was it not for the aid of these tools, she would not have been able to work, as these were crucial assets to her job. The thing she is most familiar with is the basic net. She would use a net in order to gather up fish for both her family and their birds. She would travel down to the sea with her brother Heron and sometimes her cousin Wave until they finally reached a vacant spot. Then, they would cast their nets and hooks and waited patiently until their buckets were full of herring and snappers. She can also craft one with vines or other rope-like materials from the arena if she had to, as her father Silver taught her the various knots that were used to make such things. Another utensil she used was a knife. She was supposed to cut up and serve the caught piscine animals to the ospreys, gulls, and other aviaries, which taught her to be somewhat equip with one. She also sometimes threw blades at the walls for fun with her other brother Tern, although her aim isn't that precise.

Backstory: Mew was born as the youngest child of a large District 4 family. She has a twin brother named Heron (12), and three older brothers named Tern (14), Ross (16), and Caspian (20). She also has two older sisters named Lava (19) and Gray (21). Her parents are Silver (49) and Ivory (47) Windlass, and her mother Ivory had a sister named Turquoise (26), but they never talked to each other after Ivory went on to marry Mew's father Silver. Her family was famous for owning a seabird sanctuary, although only a few of the aviaries actually belonged to them, as most of the time they just tended to sick or wounded ones before releasing them back into their proper habitat. They managed to keep this small business of theirs going on for years thanks to being in favor of the mayor, so funding was never a situation for them. They also never worried about being in the Hunger Games, as whenever one of them was reaped, such as Ross when he was 14, there was always someone who would volunteer. Mew and Heron were the curious ones of their family, and always enjoyed going outside to play along with the other kids of their village. They got along with every else easily, and the adults adored them. The identical twins often sought exploit and adventure with their friends, and they also enjoyed showing off their birds, most specifically the ospreys. Their daily lives usually involved them going out to sea in order to catch fish, such as herring, for the gulls. One day, however, Mew had decided to take a day off while swimming in the ocean with Heron. They were around five when the incident occurred, so they were being watched intensely by Silver who had approved their request. Despite the youth of their age, they were already excellent swimmers, so Silver at first wasn't worried. A few seagulls made an appearance as well, and Mew and her brother enjoyed watching them catch snappers in the water. Little did they know what was about to struck. A massive tiger shark, attracted by the shoals of fish, appeared. Mew and her brother screamed as they attempted to race out of the waters. The shark devoured a number of the gulls and fish, before swimming away while leaving the water stained crimson. She and her brother were traumatized by the scene, but while Silver tried to calm a crying Heron, Mew noticed a little small white figure in the midst of the massacre. She swam towards it, despise her father calling out to her, and took it into her hands. It was a small mew gull, the animal Mew was named after. It had survived, although it was missing a wing, and bleeding heavily. It was near death. Knowing the shark might possibly come back, she swam back to shore swiftly with the avian in hand, before bringing it to her father. They went back to the breeding sanctuary, and nursed it back to health. Except it was still missing a wing. They decided to adopt the little common gull, naming it Wing. A year later, another occurrence would happen. Six year old Mew ran towards the osprey area after hearing mangled screams, before witnessing a ten year old boy (Wave, 16) who looked similar to her, being attacked by the animals. She calmed the ospreys effortlessly, but before she could ask why the boy was in her home, Peacekeepers appeared and took the boy away. They thanked Mew, who was quite confused, as they left. A week later, the boy appeared again, except this time he introduced himself as Delta "Wave" Bourne, who was apparently her cousin. She was puzzled by this at first, as she had never knew about her cousin's existence until now. But then, she remembered what her mother had told her before, that she once had a sister. A sister who, just before giving birth to her son, died. It all fit in together after that, and the two would become friends, despite the age difference and contrasting personalities. Wave got along with the members of her family, although he preferred to stay out of the sanctuary, as he seemed to have something against the birds. The two would, along with Heron, often go out to fish as they grew up together. Wave would attempt to give out advice to craft nets, although it seemed as if Mew was the one teaching Wave, as she had more knowledge about the topic than he did really. Wave would also tell Mew about his father Aer (41) and how he would continue to make his life a living Hell. Mew wasn't surprised when her cousin told him that the fact that Aer was really a fraud, but she was still shocked and furious nonetheless. Later on, while Wave went on to hang around with Mew instead of going to training, he became enraged. He had the mayor rig the Reapings for Mew to get reaped when she was twelve, and so she did. No one volunteered, and her sisters could not either, as they were already too old to take part in the Hunger Games.

Strengths: What Mew lacks in strength she makes up for in intelligence. She is smart and determined, and can use her own brilliance to prosper throughout the Hunger Games. While she may not be as knowledgeable as her cousin Wave, she can still stand ground if she tries hard enough. She may not be able to come up with brilliant tactics and plots, but she has knowledge in other topics as well, such as knot-tying and identification of fauna and flora. She can use this to her advantage if the arena turns out to be a jungle or forest, as her grasp on the earth around her will prove to be of her use, giving aid in any way possible. She also has some medical skills thanks to the teachings of her mother Ivory. While she may not be an advanced healer, she can still use the herbs her mother told her about in order to stop or at least delay infections, which will help in case she or one of her allies get a cut that later gets attacked by ailments. Like with nearly all of District 4's tributes, Mew is an excellent swimmer that goes out to into the water at least once every day, be it for fishing or just for the fun of it. She is more graceful in the ocean than she is in land, and will be hard to catch once within a body of liquids.

Weaknesses: As mentioned before, Mew is not the strongest person in the world. Physically, she is quite weak and petite and won't be able to last against an opponent several times bigger than her. She is most likely one of the smallest tributes in the Hunger Games, if not the shortest. This means she will be on the ground in an instant if she is facing a stronger foe, and it wouldn't take long until she is either defeated or maybe even dead. Compared to some other people from the poorer districts, she didn't live in poverty. As such, she didn't experience the thirst or famines they went through. Because of this fact, she is much less resistant in comparison, and is least likely to handle those types of afflictions if she must come across them, which is highly probable. It will be a challenge for her to overcome and endure ravenous conditions, especially considering that in spite of the fact she was born in a large family, she was fed as good as the other kids. Finally, she is very hesitant to kill. She doesn't want to become what the Capitol expects her to; a person that just thinks about her next kill in the Games. She's an innocent little girl that was just so unfortunate to get wrapped in Aer's schemes. If she wants to become victor, she wants to remain the way she was, most preferably while making none to few kills.

Fears: Selachophobia, Fear of Sharks; After witnessing the brutal deaths of the gulls caused by a tiger in her district when she was only five years of age, Mew has gained a morbid fear of sharks. Just the mere mention of the animal to her ears brings back bad memories, and she will be to act bitter to the person who mentioned the fish if they're not Wave. While Wing's existence was a constant reminder of what happened, it pushed her to help others the best way she could, as she believes no one deserves to suffer from the actions of others. Because of this dread of hers, she is very paranoid whenever she is out in sea, and always makes sure she has someone around her in case she wants to go out swimming in the ocean. While she could have always swam in a lake or river, she prefers the vast blue more than other bodies of water, so she strives to be constantly aware in the water. While she is not afraid of anything else that lurks beneath the surface, she is still wary in case a shark makes it's presence a reality. And if it does, she will struggle to stay calm and escape from the jaws of a hungry predator.

Interview Angle: Although she will hate doing so, Mew will rely on that cute factor of hers in order to entice the audience in order to gain more possible Sponsors. Instead of her usual hair pin, she will have a pure crimson blossom where it would usually be placed. Her locks will be brushed and braided into a single elegant ponytail, and she will be wearing a sky-blue dress that matches her eyes. She will veil her annoyance while doing so with that wide smile of hers, keeping the Capitol citizens interested as she answers questions about her life and possible plans she has in the works. If she happens to be in the same Games as Wave, she will probably mention the fact they are related by blood if the Capitol hasn't learned about their relation already, which is highly unlikely knowing how perceptive the Capitol Gamemakers are. If asked about their relationship, she will say that she holds her cousin in deep regard and cares for him deeply while looking flushed. She won't have to fake blushing, as she really does care about Wave, and admires him greatly. She will reply to the queries with a soft tone of voice, and try her best to remain respectful to the interviewer as he continues to inquire her. By the end of her interview, she will politely bow towards the viewers, before skipping away cheerfully.

Bloodbath Strategy: Her strategies depend on whether or not her cousin Wave is in the same Games as her, as her alliance also depends on his appearance. If he isn't in the same Games as her, she will steer clear from the deadly Careers as she and her other allies invade the Cornucopia, gaining supplies of their own before disappearing into hopefully covered part of the arena so they may rest in safety. She will attempt to avoid conflict, as she is unlikely going to win a fight on her own if she has no one to aid her knowing she lacks the physical and brutal strength that helps the Careers prosper in the Hunger Games. She will evade enemies the best way she can, and will focus on the task ahead of her. Obtaining provisions is always the priority in contrast with the concept of killing and slaying others, as that is the purpose of having a Cornucopia. But if she is in the same Games as Wave, she will follow a different strategy. Hopefully the Careers decided to comply with Wave's request for her joining, as this may prove to help in case she gets attacked. Her cousin will protect her from the enemy tributes, and she will strive to not stand out from behind him. She will deftly stick to his side, and will follow where he goes.

Game Strategy: Her strategies depend on whether or not her cousin Wave is in the same Games as her, as her alliance also depends on his appearance. If he's not in the same Games as her, Mew and her alliance will begin setting up a shelter far from the Cornucopia, as the dreaded Careers are more than likely to make that certain spot their place of operation. She and her little band of allies will try to be distant from the eyes of the Gamemakers, and won't stand out as much as the other tributes. This makes them less of a threat, but if they are noticed by wandering eyes, their lives could end as quickly as one push of a button. And in some cases, that could be literal if the Capitol wants them dead and gone from the Hunger Games, as if they were never even a part of it. She won't abandon her associates, and will aid them in the best way she can possible as they work together to survive. If she is in same Games as Wave, her plans will be different. She and her cousin will often request to stay behind and guard the Cornucopia, which they should be fine about for Mew, since she only serves the purpose of being a healer. She and Wave will plot together as they both name the other tributes left in the arena, including their own coalition. They won't be planning the downfall of the Careers however, as this could lead to treacherous results if they fail to eliminate them. Together with Wave, she and her cousin will ultimately ditch the Careers near the conclusion of the Hunger Games, as they prepare for the end.

Alliance: Female or mixed alliance (if not in the same Games as Wave), Careers (if in the same Games as Wave); Her alliance depends on the appearance of her cousin Wave, as he will ultimately determine her purpose in the Careers. If not in the same Games as Wave, she will pursue different associates compared to the Careers as they will most likely not accept someone as weak as her. They will think that without physical strength and the will to kill, she will be a useless and utterly worthless asset to them. She will gladly be an alliance with other female tributes or maybe males as long as they aren't brutal killers who wouldn't hesitate to slit her throat while she sleeps. She will sought kind people such as her, but she won't join the union of anti-Careers knowing that that will only put herself in danger of dying from a District 1 male's blade or a District 2 female's knife. If Wave is in the same Games as her, he will immediately request that she joins the Career alliance. If the Careers seem like they aren't impress at first, Wave will mention the fact she does have medical and other flora and fauna knowledge, although he won't exaggerate knowing his beliefs. He will be stubborn if the leader says no at first, and will continue to name her other strengths to him or her until they finally stop resisting and agree.

Token: Pendant; At first glance, her token seems like any regular old pendant, that's until you notice something is inscribed on the golden pyrite metal. Carved onto the steel is a figure that represents a gull with it's wings spread across. It's a rather simple carving really, as the gull taking flight isn't incredibly detailed, as it looks more like the letter "V" than anything, much less a seabird. It's hardly worth anything as well, but to her it means almost everything. While the price for her token wouldn't be grand, the sentimental value of the pendant with it's inscribing means more than any piece of gold or platinum in the world to her. Just before she was going to be sent into the Capitol, her mother and father visited her in the Justice Building, along with her siblings. Her twin brother Heron gave her something right before they were kicked out, and Mew was supposed to go inside the train towards her ultimate destination. It was the pendant she made from pyrite given to her when she was only five years old, a year before she met Wave and her life changed. Her father Silver helped her etch something onto it with a stylus, and she claimed it was a seagull. She thought she lost it after seven years, and cried tears of joy once this was given to her. After that, she declared she will return home safely to her district, and to her family.

Name: Delta "Wave" Bourne

District: 4

Gender: Male

Age: 16

Height: 6'1

Personality: Wave is much unlike his younger cousin Mew, whose fondness of adventure and exploit does not seem to reach his standards. He's serious about everything, and is quite philosophical as well. He is also not fond of deception or lies of any kind. If asked a question, he will immediately turn to the truth, and nothing but the reality of things. He believes in verity, and is not afraid of telling someone off in order to reach a point. He can tell a person the most thickest, hurtful honest truth there is, and wouldn't even hesitate while do so. Some may say his candor is his best quality, but others might like to differ. Other than his veracity, he is also prominently known for his intelligence, as opposed to some people, he is actually keen on knowledge. Along with his Career training, it was never an odd sight to see him against a tree, studying a book of some sort. No one ever tried bothering him, which resulted in his conscience being filled with tuition. He's righteous in a way, and respects his opponents, no matter how strong or weak they are. In his opinion, everyone is equal, in spite of birth or royalty. He's impartial to any one he meets because of his beliefs of equity.

Appearance: As you would expect from a boy from a Career district, Wave certainly has the charming and attractive looks of one. The only thing about him that contrasts with his serious personality, really, is the way he keeps his hair conditioned. His mane is naturally unkempt and untidy, as light brown locks threaten to cover his vision. He honestly does not care about the condition of his mass, as he keeps himself quite busy and occupied back home, always on the move due to his interests. He truthfully does not find it much of an inconvenient nuisance, and as such leaves it be. Due to his life in the fishery district, his skin is tanned as a result of often staying outside, which makes his sky-blue eyes shine a way. He has a small, somewhat noticeable scar on his right hand and another on his left shoulder due to suddenly being attacked by one of Mewʻs ospreys, which would later lead to him fearing birds in general. He typically wears a turquoise pendant that was given to him by his father Aer, who claims it once belonged to his late mother who shared the same name as the gemstone.

Weapons: Wave has trained long and hard to participate in the Hunger Games someday, as expected from one that originated from a Career district. He has prepared himself with the knowledge of weapon expertise, knowing that having the proper skills in weaponry is critical if one were to desire coming back alive, and not in a casket. Absolutely few Games are won through luck alone, after all, and he always knew he would have to end a couple of lives in order to bring home the golden trophy of victory. As a result of his training, he has his own preference when it comes to the topic of knives or staffs, as he believes the following weapons are the ones heʻs more suited with compared to others. Unsurprisingly, his preferred weapons are the commonly seen trident and net from his district. In fact, much like most tributes from his district, he has become equipped with the ancient Retiarius style of brawling. As such, his initial strategy will be to either find one or craft a net from vines and other materials, before entangling his victim in it, leaving them vulnerable as he finishes them off with his trident. Even if he does not use a net, he is perfectly fine with maneuvering with a trident alone, as his strength also allows him to hurl said weapon to great lengths.

Backstory: Wave was born as the only child of Turquoise Waters (26) and his father Aer Bourne (41), who left them when he found out about his loverʻs pregnancy. His mother, although in tears when she discovered Aer missing, had managed to live on in hopes that Wave would grow up to be someone great someday. She struggled with her lifestyle, and was close to giving up on her many times, and she probably would have was it not for the fact that Wave was still inside her. She made a living as a low fisherwoman, but still came out poor in the end. She finally got her wish of death when Wave was born, however. She only had a single minute left as she smiled, with her child in her arms. She named him Wave, and with tears in her eyes, she passed. With Turquoise dead, the hospital had planned to give him up to an orphanage, when Aer had burst through the doors, claiming himself as the father of Wave. The doctors, still unsure, made sure to have him take a test and when the results turned out to be positive, they gave him up to the man. He renamed Wave, giving him the name Delta and his surname Bourne. As it turned out, Aer had managed to gain a fortune during the last few months of Turquoiseʻs life, as he discovered a colossal reef filled with fish and other aquatic creatures. In honor of this, the mayor gave him his own private estate, and was gifted many riches. Still, Aer was not the greatest father in the world. He neglected his son most of the time, while the servants often came to the aid of Wave most of time. And when he did pay attention to him, most of the time it was to yell or hit him if he ever did anything wrong, no matter how trivial. Overtime, Wave grew to hate his father and when he found out what he did when he discovered his gestation, he hated him even more. Later, when he was 9, he stumbled across his own birth records. He noticed that parts of it were crossed out, and when he did uncover what it said, he found out what his first given name was. Wave Waters. Unexpectedly, tears began to fall from his eyes as he discovered the name Turquoise gave him. After that moment in his life, he began calling himself Wave, and the nickname seemed to stuck. Aer did not care what his son called himself really, as long as he continued to train for the Hunger Games. It was during his phase as a 10 year old did Wave become rebellious. He ran away from his fatherʻs estate one fated day, fleeing from the voices of butlers and maids that requested he returned. His father issued for the Peacekeepers to insure he returned back, injured or not, causing Wave to accompany a hatchery in order to stay hidden and veiled from the wandering eyes. It was late when he escaped, almost midnight, so he was dreadfully tired. He explored the breeding home in order to ward off his feelings of daze, and eventually ended up in what appeared to be a small osprey exhibit. He awoke the animals, and they attacked him while he screamed, causing him to get his scars. He was ultimately saved when a 6 year old girl named Mew (12), who turned out to be the daughter of the owner who possessed the shelter, managed to stop the birds from attacking him. Wave, however, would learn to fear birds from now on. The noises he made also alerted the Peacekeepers, who brought him back to Aer. He was beaten from what he did and was banned from going outside for at least a week, and was forced to train in solitude during that time. Instead, however, he decided to find out who the little girl who saved his life was. From research and asking the servants questions, he concluded that the girl was Mew Windlass, whose family owns a large seabird breeding home. He also found that she had a deceased aunt named Turquoise Waters, which meant Mew was his cousin. He immediately went back to the breeding home when his punishment was over, and the two talked, although he stood clear away from her aviaries. They had few things in common really, with Wave being serious and cold and Mew being fun and loving. They bonded as friends, nonetheless, and the two would often rendezvous together when Wave had time. It was also around this period that he became obsessed with the truth and justice in general, as he realized how Aer really was. Deceptive, crude, and devious. He learned from the servants that Aer had not really found the Abundant Coral Reef, as it was called now. He had taken credit for it by killing the man who just stumbled among it. Wave was getting restless of Aerʻs tyranny, and decided to volunteer when he was 16 to come back home as a victor, and exploit his father as the fraud he truly is.

Strengths: Waveʻs greatest strength is not his actual strength, his weapon skills, or even his swimming skills. Some may claim that this ability of his is very uncommon when considering his district, and may think of the very fact of him having this skill close to unbelievable. Strangely enough, his most significant talent is his own intelligence. He is a brilliant tribute whose prowess as a strategist is not something to be underestimated. He can plot the smallest of things to the most heinous of his plans, and he is not afraid of showing no mercy as well when he does so. Heʻs a tactical person that can either be your best ally or your worst enemy, but either way, he might include someone in one of his schemes while they do not even realize it until itʻs too late. Along with his brains, also comes his brawn. Heʻs more of a swift combatant, rather than a slow tank really, so heʻll probably use light-weight tridents rather than heavy duty kind of skewers. Heʻs agile, and will strike at the vital points of his victimsʻ anatomy most of the time, in order to give them a quick death rather than a horrid, grotesque one.

Weaknesses: Waveʻs true main weakness really, is his lack of resistance. All he could want was provided for him during his life in District 4, thanks to his fatherʻs wealth, so he never experienced famine as much as tribute from the poorer districts, such as 7 or 11, have. Hunger is a foreign concept to him, as is thirst, so he will be entirely and utterly unprepared if he was forced to suffer from said conditions. He also does not know everything about the world, as he lacks knowledge about most herbs and plants, as he was much more focused on fish and other animals in general compared to other organisms. As such, he wonʻt be able to gather the vital flora if he ever found himself bearing bad circumstances, especially if he ends up as a loner which would take him by surprise. He is also is not a good climber, and is prone to nearly tripping while hiking. He typically prefers the ocean and the land rather than mountain range, as he connects his fear of aviaries with the sky, as most birds are known to take part in flight. As such, he will avoid all sierra that he may come across, and will only go if the Careers insist.

Fears: Ornithophobia, Fear of Birds; As a result of a certain occurrence of his childhood, he is frightened not just by ospreys, but by other aviaries as well. Wave completely despises any sort of avifauna, and will refuse to do any sort of action if it involves interaction with what he calls "winged beasts." The memory of getting attacked and nearly pecked to death is always found in mind, and stands out from his somewhat common beatings from his father. He got used to those after all, but the image of the incident will always stick out more vividly in his mind. He still has nightmares of large bird of prey appearing out of no where, before suddenly diving toward him. During these nightly terror of his, he attempts to escape the talons of the creatures, but to no avail. He is caught, and ripped to shred by the deadly claws of the animals. And when he wakes up, tears threaten to roll across his face. His dread for the animals terrorize him constantly, and he is always paranoid that someday, somehow, the incident will be recounted. Whenever he does encounter an avian or an entire flock of them, he either dashes away or attempts to hide from their sight, as the mere mention brings shock through his ears. An engagement will do much more to him.

Interview Angle: Wave will simply answer the questions the best he can. He wonʻt come off as charming or seductive, as he was never a fan of using such methods in order to gain the attention of others. He also sees that style as a kind of deceptive, something he does not approve of. He will secure the attraction of Sponsors, however, by showing his superiority and elegance while responding to queries. The Capitol has always admired those on the top, and if they view him as such, most likely he will obtain the appeal of a couple or many eager citizens. His appearance will also match up to their interest. He will have a sophisticated outfit on, with at first an outwardly normal suit and tie on. A wreath will be placed on the surface of his head as well. But the moment he gets stands to leave his interview, his attire will literally fade away, and his actual chic will be uncovered. A shimmering golden uniform will be revealed, and the festoon will be exposed as a silvery crown. It will be as if he came in as a tribute, and came out as a god. Powerful, glimmering, and seemingly perfect.

Bloodbath Strategy: Wave will race into the midst of the battle without any second thought or reconsideration. He will try to gain a trident as soon as possible, but he will be fine with anything really. He tries his best to be diverse, after all. After obtaining his weapon, he will aid the Careers by crossing blades with the other tributes, but if Mew is in the same Games as him, he will be sure to prioritize to protect her as well. His plan in the initial bloodbath will be to protect his cousin if he must, but he will still perform his plot even if she is in the same Games as he. He will safeguard the Cornucopia, and will pay attention to what the the tributes grab. In the Hunger Games, it is not a personʻs strength or abilities that keep them alive. It is the number of necessities that keep a person going, and by preventing a number from grabbing anything in general, they will be made vulnerable. He will strike out against anyone who dares attack him, no matter how much of a threat they are. Even if he does not have a weapon in hand, he will pursue. His abilities in hand-to-hand combat are almost as grand as his skills in weaponry, and he will defend his life at all cost.

Game Strategy: Wave's plan from now on out is to survive, simple as that. If Mew is in the same Games as him, he will also be sure to make her life a priority as well, as he cares deeply for his cousin and would be heartbroken to see her pass. Most of the time, he will stay behind as the other Careers hunt their victims, as he does not want to take the risks for something as trivial as killing another being. It will also be easier to keep an eye on Mew as well, as their allies will most likely won't suggest someone like her to go hunting along with them. This also gives him time to inquire strategies, which might give him the upper-hand if he ever thinks he needs to betray his coalition, especially if the majority just so happen to be mad with power or just wicked in general. If tributes decide to attack him during his stays while guarding supplies, he will stand ground and won't run away from conflict without a fight. He will be sure that none survive, or at least didn't take any supplies. Around or near the terminus of the Games, he will ditch his alliance, and with Mew if she is there as well. He will probably end up killing one of the Careers, but will leave most of them unscathed as he flees with provisions for himself as he leaves the rest either poisoned or useless.

Alliance: Careers; It's only natural that Wave joins the Careers, as he doesn't want to come off as a traitor or disappointment to his district. He's more likely to die early if he do so, after all. He will also insist for Mew to join the alliance if she happens to be in the same Games as him, as he does not wish for her death, but rather her security. His cousin is the closet person to him, and he will not settle for a "No" if they deny his request. He will remain obstinate and stubborn, no matter how mad or vicious the leader turns out to be, until they agree. He will also be extremely wary and hesitant if most of his allies turn out to be deranged and demented. He will steer clear away from most of the insane members during training, if there are any that is. If he is actually nominated as leader of the Careers, he will oppose this. The superior commander of the Careers will most likely guide them through their hunts after all, and if he wants his strategy to work at all, he can not afford to be the head of their union.

Token: Turquoise pendant; Before he was sent away from his district, and into the Capitol, his father Aer visited him in the Justice Building just before he was to leave. He gave Wave a shimmering turquoise pendant, that he later claimed to belong to his deceased mother with the same name as the gemstone. Turquoise. The gem was connected to a chain made of silver, and he put it on his son, who was rather speechless as he received it. He did not expect anyone to give him anything really before he left, and especially not the man who made his life a living Hell for the sixteen years of life. Inscribed on the token is a heart, and within the center of that carving, is the lone letter T, said to represent his mother's name. Wave was actually pleased when he was given the medallion, but his joy would later turn to a bitter taste in his mouth when his father explained his reasons for giving him the locket. He claimed that the sorrow and pain he experienced as a young child while growing up without his mother in his life would secure himself more Sponsors, as the Capitol always adore sorrowful pasts within tributes. Wave was sour with rage as his father left, and remained so until he reached the Capitol.
