Name: Finale Spectrus

Age: 14

Gender: Male

District: 5

Weapon: Dagger, Crossbow

Appearance: Finale Spectrus carries a look of hope and courage on his face. Black and white hair make up this child's ghastly appearance with blue eyes that seem to speak out to you, promising you something. He has never truly smiled, being the one to just get things over with but showing sympathy by faking smiles just to make sure his allies don't worry for him. He resembles his 6 ancestors in many ways. He has the demonic smile of Frade, the seductive eyes of Sorcera, the explosive looking eyes of Rade, the pure body of Lumina, the mischevious eyebrows of Tiara, and the proud height of Shade (6'2).

Personality: Finale is very brave and courageous due to his intense motives for being a volunteer in the games. He is very careful in what he does, stepping out of every bad idea he sees coming. He is humble as well, not accepting many compliments and rather letting others who helped him take the accolade. He hates being the center of attention because he feels that if he does so, the tributes will want him dead as soon as possible and risk ending the Spectrus bloodline forever. He carries traits from his ancestors in personality as well. He can't help but warm up to the mention of anything demonic like "hell" or "devil", and he likes playing tricks on others only to blame it on someone who deserves it. He tends to be seductive with girls that trust him but the way he never stands out resembles two of the main Spectrus siblings. But finally, he has the courageous heart of the Spectrus that tried to save them all.

Backstory: Finale was bought into this world alone, a giant task on his hands. His mother had died after giving birth to the child of Shade Spectrus' grandson, who had died while working on a dangerous project. Finale was literally left nude and unbathed in the blood of his mother as she could barely look over at him and to everyone's surprise, Finale wept no tears. She took his hand and kissed it ever so sweetly, "Finale.." she said before the final teardrop came down her face. She let it fall on her finger and she drew a heart with the tear over his, which was her way of saying "I'll be closer to you more than ever, Finale". The doctor took Finale from his dead mother's arms and kept him at his home for the next 7 years.

Finale somehow remembered the moment he was born, but forgot everything else he lived through as a baby. Like a gap in his memories, he says it was "like a deleted scene he'll never get to see". He studied up on the past in order to see what type of world he's dealing with when he was 7 with the simplest of things; the games. He watched the games where his grandfathers and grandmothers all fought in, Shade being the victor and last standing spectrus of that generation. He raised a child, Hope, who had managed to bend the twist on a quell that would have risked Shade's life yet again after gaining a capitol level fame. Finale kept reading up on his family's past ever since the beginning of Panem, and he then saw his importance as the last living Spectrus. He ran over to the home of Mist Scorchil who was now retired from lumber and he then looked after Finale up until he was 14.

The boy was told of Shade and Mist's friendship and teamwork, and how Shade was killed in a riot that took place on the same street he grew up on. He was scared to see Finale, how his name was fitting enough to make you regret seeing him suffer. Finale was taken under Mist's care and secret training since then, and Mist taught him the ropes on everything that he should know in order to come out alive if he was to be reaped. Finale had hope, he had a good guardian to look after him and he was able to fight with the blood of one victor, and the intelligence of another.

Then, disaster struck.

It was a hiest that took place at Mist's home on the night of Finale's 14th birthday. Angry rebels swarmed his home and tried to ransack everything when Finale was the only one there. He was beat, smacked, cut and utterly annihalated by the many weapons the rioters had. Mist came home after getting a cake adorned with figurines of his famous ancestors only to see blood everywhere and the furniture gone, Finale laying in the middle of it all. Without hesitating, he cured Finale as muich as he could and he ran to his assigned peacekeeper, who then took Finale to a hovercraft that would carry him to the capitol to be saved. It was a close call, but Finale returned good as new. At least, that's what they told him.

Finale had only 4 weeks to live. They can save him from that horrible demise, but the only way he can get the attention is if he manages to win a hunger games, where they will be forced to cure every inch of him. If he doesn't get into the games or win, he will die and the Spectrus family will be gone forever. However, Finale already had plans of volunteering. He wants to speak up, he wants to let Panem know that there is still a Spectrus standing. With only a week and two days left of life, Mist saw him volunteer, and with tears in his eyes the old man slowly walked up to the stage and hugged Finale to say goodbye. "Good Luck" said Mist as he took the first tear he shed and drew a heart over Finale's heart. Finale remembered the scene and he told Mist, "I promise, I'll see you again".

It was at that moment that Mist told him the news of his short amount of time left on Earth, and it made him promise yet again to not only him, but to everyone that helped the Spectri make it this far in life, that he would win and ring back the Spectri again. He looked down and walked into the justice building where he sat alone. He heard the family next door say goodbye to their daughter, "Mom and dad will always love you". He cried as he could feel his mother speak through his heart, feeling it warm up as he heard her voice say to him,

"We all love you more, Finale".

Strengths: Much like Mist, Finale has a newfound will to fight and win in order to return and save the Spectri from extinction. Good precaution saves him from many stupid mistakes and again, like any Spectrus, he is skilled with the classic dagger and crossbow. He has the blood of a victor running through his veins, and the logic of another pulsing through every part of his brain. Finale is also the type of person who won't stop fighting until his heart practically kills HIM, making him hard to discourage.

Weakness: Finale has the huge weight of being the last living Spectrus, making him a tribute suffering a painful depression most of the time and he also exaggerates on taking precautions, often wasting precious time in securing his own safety. He is a traitor to many due to his "Anything to survive" type of personality, where he would rather save his closer friends rather than just any ally. When he was attacked, Finale was left with horrible stamina, barely being able to run for two minutes before tiring out. But his biggest weakness so far is the fact that he's only a week and two days left to live, becoming slightly more weaker as the days pass by. If he can't win before that, why bother trying to kill him?

Training Strategy: Finale will practice his natural skill with Crossbows and Dagers at random moments to avoid being identified as a Spectrus. He will try his best to not let his last name be revealed to avoid being a target for the cruel hearts of the careers and a few other tributes.

Bloodbath Strategy: Finale isn't taking any risks and he will try to just grab whatever the other tributes seem to be ignoring to begin with. Over time, he'll improvise some sort of weapon thanks to Mist's crafting tips.

Games Strategy: Finale just wants to work on winning in the fastest way possible and in order to do that, Finale will lay low while extending his training over the first tow days. On the third and fourth days, he will focus on attacking and hopefully that will be enough before the 9th day.

Feast Strategy: He won't go. The feast is the second bloodbath to him and unless it's required, he just won't go. If he's forced to go, Finale will try to be first or last to arrive and once he gets what he has to get, he'll go straight into training for one more day before using the next days as a "victory or death" period.

Token: His token is a tiny figurine of Shade that the capitol spat out to earn funding for the next games after Shade won.

Alliance: Finale will ally with just one person, preferably his district partner if they are alone.

Interview Angle: Finale will be normal but will try to hush any mention of his ancestry.

Mentor Advice: Well Finale, this... this is the last time you might see your old man. You need to win, you need to save the family. Don't do it for me, hell if you want don't even do it for yourself. Do it for the Spectri, do it to avenge them from the capitol's ignorance. A wise man once told me, Finale, "Come home in a ride with cheers, not a coffin with tears". I bestow those words upon you, Finale. Good Luck out there.
