Felix Ravinstill was a great-nephew of President Ravinstill and a student at the Capitol's prestigious Academy. He was one of the school's 24 top-performing seniors selected to be mentors for the 10th Hunger Games. He was assigned the female tribute from District 11, Dill.

Biography

Felix visiting the arena.

Felix visited the Capitol Arena with the other mentors and their tributes.

Felix tried to promote his tribute during the interviews, but his tribute's sickly disposition gave him little opportunity to make an impact. He seemed to know Casca Highbottom, the dean of the Academy, well, and caught up on gossip together after the pre-show.

Dill placed fourteenth, passing away from complications of tuberculosis shortly after entering the arena. Felix commented that he was surprised that she had lasted the day when he saw her emerge, sending her two bottles of water, although they were stolen by Treech, the male tribute from District 7. Felix was graceful in defeat and was complimented excessively by Lepidus Malmsey, though that may have been due to Felix being the president's grandnephew.

Film adaptation

The television announcement about Felix.

In The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, Felix was the son of the president. He was hospitalized and in critical condition after the bombing of the Capitol Arena, succumbing to his injuries during the Games only a few days later. An image of his body was televised during the broadcast, and his death was the justification for the Head Gamemaker, Dr. Volumnia Gaul, to send snake mutts into the arena.

Etymology

Felix was the one of the four sons of the Roman god Saturn and a mortal woman, Entoria. In Latin, the word felix means "lucky" and "blessed". It was adopted as a cognomen with that meaning by the Roman dictator Lucius Cornelius Sulla Felix.
