Sage Blanken was a tribute from District 12 who participated in the 73rd Hunger Games.[1]
Biography[]
Sage was born in the Seam, as was his district partner, and they were both reaped for the 73rd Hunger Games. He was mentored by Haymitch Abernathy. Effie Trinket mentioned to Katniss Everdeen that he and his district partner ate like "savages". This upset Katniss greatly, as they came from the poorest region of District 12, where access to food was limited.[1]
Early script[]
An early version of a script for The Hunger Games film gave his name as Sage Blanken, and his parents, Corrina and Tygart Blanken, were vendors at the Hob. He was killed with a bar mace on the second day by Prospero, the District 3 male.[2]
