 Author has written 2 stories for Hunger Games. Hello, I'm Nick! I've been writing fan fictions for over five years about the Hunger Games, but I used a different outlet to post my work. However, since this aforementioned outlet is losing its popularity, I am beginning to shift over to this website. On my profile, you will find all the information about my current series. This will be regularly updated whenever I post new chapters. Update Log Anguish: The 21st Hunger Games - last updated on June 24th Betrayal: The Test Games - lasted updated on July 27th Caducity: The 22nd Hunger Games - announced; published on TBD THE DEVIATION SERIES BETRAYAL: THE TRIAL GAMES Rules 1. Users may submit up to 3 tributes. Having 3 tributes does not mean that one of them will be a bloodbath victim, and having 1 tribute does not guarantee that they will survive the bloodbath. Tributes will survive based on three factors: (1.) how fascinating the tribute is, (2.) if the tribute has a potential storyline, and (3.) how interactive the user is with the Games. 2. Submission are first-come, first-serve. However, I have the right to deny any tribute with or without an explanation. 3. Reservations are allowed. They will have a loose deadline of 3 days from its creation. After this 3 day period, I will reach out to the user to ensure that they are still interested in submitting a tribute. If not, the spot will reopen. 4. Please note that these Games will be published on two platforms. Therefore, users from both platforms are allowed to submit tributes. Because of this, it is highly recommended that you ask for a reservation (with at least one back up) before submitting a tribute. 5. Tributes should be submitted via PM. Tributes sent in reviews will not be accepted. 6. All bolded fields must be included in order for the tribute to be accepted (except the strategy section). 7. Please read the following section to ensure the character aligns with this proper universe. Tributes that do not align with this universe will automatically be denied. Universe Background In 1597 P.A., the Hunger Games were abolished following the destruction of the 75th Hunger Games' arena. For 43 years, the Capitol Loyalists stayed in the shadows, playing into the Rebels' dream that Panem could have a democratic government without a strong authority figure. But they knew the country was only staying together because of Katniss Everdeen. She was the patriot, the icon, the symbol of freedom. Not a single person could maintain the country's feigned democracy without her. Sooner or later, they knew everyone would understand that the Capitol's rule was necessary for survival. In 1640 P.A., Katniss Everdeen died. She was survived by her two children, but they would never hold the same authority as their mother. This allowed the Loyalists to go on the offense, catching the Rebels off-guard. Each district is in their own state of chaos and warfare: The Capitol has been reclaimed by the Loyalists, but not without some costs. Its current occupants are in a constant state of fear, as the Rebels have focused on destroying the Loyalists' occupation in this city. The President's Mansion, the City Circle, and many residential areas have been heavily bombed and are considered a hazardous area to be around. Most children have stationed themselves in the outskirts of the city and behind the Loyalists' lines for safety. District 1 has been reclaimed by the Loyalists, being the third district to fully fall under the Loyalists' control. Its current occupants are very mixed in terms of whether they side with the Loyalists or the Rebels, yet very few vocally side with the Rebels. The City Square has been bombed, but the rest of the district's infrastructure is relatively unharmed. Although the occupants are not able to resume their daily lives, most children are able to stay at their home without fearing for their safety. District 2 has been reclaimed by the Loyalists, being the first district to fully fall under the Loyalists' control. Although many people fighting for the Loyalists originate from District 2, its infrastructure has not been heavily impacted from the war due to the Rebels' strategy of focusing on the Capitol. Although the occupants are not able to resume their daily lives, most children are able to stay at their home without fearing for their safety. District 3 has maintained its majority of Rebel occupants. However, this has caused the district to be one of the large battlegrounds of this war. The City Square and Mayor's Mansion have been bombed, schools have been turned into bunkers, and residential areas have been deserted. Most of the children are living on the streets and in alleys as their parents are fighting in the war. District 4 is in the midst of being reclaimed by the Loyalists, but it has been a difficult campaign due to the districts' strong Rebels presence. Its pre-war citizens are evenly divided between siding with the Loyalists and the Rebels. This has allowed the Loyalists to claim the southern part of the district, whereas the Rebels claim the northern part. Most of the children are maintaining their safety by hiding behind the line of their parents' respective side. District 5 has been reclaimed by the Loyalists, being the second district to fully fall under the Loyalists' control. Because many Capitolites moved to the district after the Second Rebellion, most of its pre-war citizens aligned with the Loyalists when the war began. One of its five hydroelectric dams have been bombed, but the other four are functioning. The rest of its infrastructure remains relatively unharmed. Although the occupants are not able to resume their daily lives, most children are able to stay at their home without fearing for their safety. District 6 has been reclaimed by the Loyalists, being the fifth district to fully fall under the Loyalists' control. Most of its railroads have been bombed by the Loyalists to prevent the Rebels from sending troops to other districts. However, the rest of the district remains relatively unharmed. Although the occupants are not able to resume their daily lives, most children are able to stay at their home without fearing for their safety. District 7 is in the midst of being reclaimed by the Loyalists, but it has been a difficult campaign due to the districts' strong Rebels presence. With District 9 being reclaimed by the Loyalists, the Rebels have been attacked from both their eastern and their southern borders. Unlike District 4 who is in the same condition, most of its pre-war occupants sided with the Rebels. The Rebels have been able to use the natural landscape to their advantage, but the Loyalists have begun to burn trees for the sake of destroying the Rebels' hiding places. Most children are living in the forest despite its state as a battleground, using the trees to hide from both Rebels and Loyalists' troops. District 8 has been struggling for either the Loyalists or the Rebels to claim a majority. Its largest textile factory was destroyed by the Loyalists, yet this did not deter the Rebels' spirit. Both residential and commercial areas alike are in ruins from the war. Because of the constant warfare, most children have become separated from their parents and are struggling to find a safe place for shelter. District 9 has been reclaimed by the Loyalists, being the fourth district to fully fall under the Loyalists' control. However, it was heavily damaged due to the war. The City Square, Mayor's Mansion, and most of its commercial areas were bombed. Almost all of their wheat fields have been burned down by the Loyalists in order to regain control of the district. The children are scattered around the district, yet most seem to be avoiding both Rebels and Loyalists' troops. District 10 has been struggling for either the Loyalists or the Rebels to claim a majority. When the Loyalists began their attack, the Rebels released all of their livestock in hopes of using it as a distraction. Due to its rural landscape, the district has not been subject to many bombs. However, there never seems to be a lull in gunshots, and animal corpses are scattered around the district. While some of the children have been living on the streets by hiding in undesirable areas (such as inside animal corpses or under manure), some have been able to hide behind the lines of their respective parents' side. District 11 is about to slip into the Loyalists' hands, which would make it the sixth district to fall under the Loyalists' control. Although most pre-war citizens aligned with the Rebels, the Loyalists have burned most of their plantations, effectively eliminating their source of food. With limited supplies, the Rebels are about to surrender to the Loyalists. The children are finding safety through three different measures: some are hiding in the burned ruins of plantations, some are hiding with their parents behind the Rebels' lines, and some have surrendered to the Loyalists for the sake of food. District 12 has maintained its Rebels majority. However, this has caused the district to be one of the large battlegrounds of this war. The City Square and Mayor's Mansion have been bombed, coal mines have been turned into bomb safety zones, and residential areas have been deserted. All of the remaining children are living on the streets. Although some children were sheltered in one of the mines, its entrance and exit was blocked due to a recent bomb, so those occupants were presumed deceased. District 13 has maintained its Rebels majority. However, due to their distance from the Capitol, it is not as large of a battleground as Districts Three or Twelve. Because of their previous conditions of living underground between the First and the Second Rebellion, many occupants have shifted to the underground lifestyle. Only troops are allowed above the ground, as its reconstructed infrastructure has been completely destroyed from bombs. Nevertheless, while most children are hiding underground with their families, some children are scattered along the district's outskirts in an attempt to distance themselves from the war. This is the current nature of Panem. To further prove that the Loyalists are fighting the correct battle, twenty-four children, a male and a female from the Capitol and each of the thirteen districts, between the ages of 12 and 18, have been kidnapped. They are the experiment. They will be sent into a previous arena without a reaping, training, and interview. There will be no mentors, no sponsors, and no mutations. Because only the most influential Loyalist advocates will have access to these Games, the only similarity between these and the first generation of Hunger Games will be the murders and the betting. This is an experiment to prove that the lawless nature that the Rebels have established will not last. The Loyalists have ensured that they will be successful.

(be as specific or as broad as you want) Arena Strategy: (will they hunt for tributes? will they stick with their allies? will they leave their allies eventually?) (be as specific or as broad as you want) Feast Strategy: (will they attend? if so, will they focus on getting items or attacking others?) (be as specific or as broad as you want) Finale Strategy: (how would they fight? would they try setting up traps? will they focus on overpowering the other tribute?) (be as specific or as broad as you want) TRIBUTE TEMPLATE ENDS HERE Notes (1*) The fatal flaw should be a part of the tribute's personality that may unintentionally cause issues. This includes positive personality characteristics, such as kindness towards everyone and extreme loyalty. Essentially, it should be the one personality characteristic that could always be used to describe the tribute. If you cannot figure out your tribute's fatal flaw, you may submit the completed version of your tribute (not including strategy) and I will create one. (2*) Please take your time on the backstory/history section, as it gives you an opportunity to create an elaborate tribute. Tributes with longer backstories/histories have an increased survival chance. Here are some questions that might help you create a detailed tribute: What is the tribute's home life like? Do they have brothers and sister? These questions are meant to provoke ideas. You do not need to explicitly answer them, nor do you have to answer any of them. This section will determine whether the tribute is classified as a "main character," "supporting character," or a "minor character." Take your time on it. (3*) Since I struggle to visualize a tribute based on written descriptions alone, I will find a high-quality image that most accurately represents each tribute. As a result, some of their appearance may adjust a little bit. You may also submit a high-quality image or the name of a person/actor/model that you think depicts your tribute. (4*) You may submit the strategy section at any time before the tributes enter the arena. There may also be opportunities in the arena for you to submit advice. However, do not rely on this. Any advice submitted after the bloodbath begins will be ignored (unless stated otherwise).

(4*) If someone is reaped, I would appreciate an explanation as to why nobody volunteer. I should be able to speculate these reasons from the tribute's backstory, but this makes sure we're on the same page. Here are some questions to consider: If the tribute is young and in a loving family, why didn't one of their parents volunteer? These questions are meant to provoke ideas. You do not need to explicitly answer them, nor do you have to answer any of them. Also, it is understandable if the tribute's family simply did not want to volunteer. Remember to keep your tribute's backstory/history in mind. (5*) You may submit the strategy section at any time before the tributes enter the arena. There may also be opportunities in the arena for you to submit advice. However, do not rely on this. Any advice submitted after the bloodbath begins will be ignored (unless stated otherwise).
