Training scores for mine if we get to decide them. It was really hard to decide, so if any of you guys think any of these should have a higher or lower score just let me know. Also I still don’t know what weapon to have Burton use XD:
Macaria, 10: She showed a variety of skills related to weapons and agility, but mainly focussed on knife-throwing. Demonstrated her deadly accuracy, however knife throwing is not a particularly unique skill and (while useful) not particularly fitting to the upcoming Games.
Astrape, 6: Demonstrated agility on the ropes course and her use of a slingshot. She is not considered an expert at the slingshot by any stretch of the imagination, but she has decent accuracy with it. Her stealth skills are to be noted. By virtue of her small size and young age, she is not considered to be a strong contender.
Amadrya, 10: Chose to use axes, with which she has impressive abilities, and to do various strength-based challenges. While the axe use may otherwise have brought down her score due to being a fairly generic weapon and because its utility as a tool in this year’s Arena will be diminished, her demonstration of strength showed that she would be a decent opponent in the hand-to-hand combat in these Games. This year’s Games will likely be favourable for close range melee-style fighting, giving her an advantage.
Burton, 7: Chose to demonstrate mainly his speed on the Gauntlet, though he did use one or two different weapons too. His speed is notable, certainly, and he demonstrated some competency with the weapons, though he is by no means an expert. A middle-of-the-road tribute with only a slightly higher score due to his speed and older age. The Gamemakers have taken note of his charm, but this does not affect his score.

(Oh also, Dream, you said you wanted to do more scenes with Amadrya and Everest and I’m down for that. Any particular thoughts on scenes we could do?)

(hey guys! Sorry I’ve not been super Active this week, I’ve been at the barn almost all day every day XD today I was jumping around in the rain and my stirrup leather literally snapped in half while I wasn’t in the air so that was mildly terrifying, but I didn’t fall off somehow 🎉)
(And yeah! Maybe they eat together or train a bit more or perhaps run into each other on the roof?)

Oooh yeah okay. I can write something for that if you want. I might have her on the roof because it might be nice for them to talk up there.)

Amadrya Darrow
The fire-eyed maid of smoky war
She had always been an active person, especially since she had grown up with the woodlands of her district to explore. Or at least the part of it she was allowed to explore, anyway. Most of it was fenced off. But, still, Amadrya had missed being outside. Being confined to this one building hadn’t done her any good whatsoever, and it almost made her want to go into the Arena just for a little bit of space.
Her hair, unusually, was loose and falling to its chest length. She had always thought about cutting her hair short but the braids were fun to do. Simple things like that gave her time to just forget about things for a while.
Amadrya stood on the roof, looking into the vibrant sunset, observing the colours or fiery red, burnt orange, salmon pinks, glowing gold. It was the prettiest thing about the Capitol she had seen so far.
She could tell even from up here that the Capitol was engaging in the festivities associated with the Games; street parties, people rushing to make bets. It made her sick, how they thought this whole thing was something enjoyable. But she supposed she ought not to complain. Some of those people might be betting on her, and they could save her life. It was best to let the Capitol have their fun sometimes. Even if it was them that had gotten her into this mess in the first place.
She shook her head lightly, returning her gaze to the sunset. It was getting to close now, her time in the Capitol was ticking away and the Games fast approaching. She was prepared, but she didn’t want to be.
She wanted this all to be a dream. |

(Okay about ready to post the scene but unsure if I should give his crush a name or leave it open ended in case anyone wanted to rp later in the next games. I was planning on her being one of the stylists possibly for the other districts or just the one for 1)

“Your hair. It’s different.”
Everest had found solace on the roof of the training facility ever since he had been in the Capitol. But up until now, he hadn’t encountered anyone else there, until he saw Amadrya standing with her back to him as she gazed out at the setting sky. He almost hadn’t realized it was her at first, due to her unusual lack of braids. But he had grown to memorize her stance and slight mannerisms, as he had been trained to do, so he was able to tell it was her just seconds after seeing her.
Walking up to stand next to her, he glanced over. The sunset was casting pinkish hues on her face that made her normally sharp features softer. Although perhaps her loose hair aided in the image.
Glancing down at the cheering crowds and parades below, he said simply, “They love you, you know. They see you as some barbaric, warrior princess who could win the games.” His mentor had told him as much that morning, and had advised him to push harder to have Amadrya join their alliance. Of course, Everest didn’t need much convincing in that regard, but it did provide him a valid excuse for his pursuit of her, as he could claim it was strictly strategic, and had nothing to do with the feelings he was fighting silently, willing them to go away despite not truly wanting them to.

Amadrya Darrow
The fire-eyed maid of smoky war
“Oh, yeah, it is,” she said with a nod “I needed a break from the braids thing for a little bit.”
It had always been how she had styled her hair, and because of that the moment she came to the Capitol for the Games it had become a feature. It was like they were trying to turn her into a caricature of herself. For a little while she wanted to do something different.
She was looking back out to the horizon as he joined her, and she tried to ignore how her pulse seemed to be speeding up. She couldn’t do this, she wouldn’t let herself. She wasn’t going to sabotage both of their chances in the Games by getting into this stuff. And besides, she needed some kind of indication that he felt the same.
As his gaze went to the crowds and he made that comment, her eyes followed to look at the people once again. A smirk pulled at her lips.
“They fall for everything you tell them,” she replied “Their gullibility is almost impressive.”
Her gaze moved back over to him, though, as she spoke her next words.
“They love you too, you’re an ideal bet for winning the Games. You’re strong, you’re smart enough to have learned lots of survival skills. My image is built upon me volunteering, the moment I kill someone in there that protector image is going to be gone.”
She knew that was true. If she killed someone in that Arena, and she suspected she would, the good side of her image would die, especially if it was a young kid or it wasn’t out of self-defence. All she’d have left would be the barbaric warrior image. Someone brutal they could root against. That would be the only route she could take to still getting sponsors and having a chance at winning. But that wasn’t who she wanted to be. |
