➹ The Hunger Games ➹ STARTED

Tbh I've never even read the books, I just wanted to be in this roleplay. So, I'm a bit confused about alliances and careers, could someone explain?
 
I think the careers should all be allies, obviously. This includes Districts 1, 2, and 4, right?

Yup it does and yep commander you're a career boy #squadgoals

Tbh I've never even read the books, I just wanted to be in this roleplay. So, I'm a bit confused about alliances and careers, could someone explain?
Alliances are people you work together with in the games basically, the careers are the tributes from 1,2, and 4 where they train for the games most of their lives and so they are pretty lethal and feared by many other tributes since they work together as a group usually in The Hunger Games. A career usually wins the Hunger Games but there have been times where they didn't.
 
When do you guys think we should start? I want to give people with other timezones time to discuss though
 
well uh
the tree-climbers can form an alliance, im looking @ u district 7ers and district 11ers

Tbh I feel like Aldo will probs be a lone wolf for most of the rp given his personality type; I feel like he wouldn't want to join an alliance due to risking attaching to someone he knows will die soon.

I mean Aldo probably will help take care of someone who's wounded because he is that type of guy, and maybe help another group out; regardless though, I don't see anything remotely near the realm of an alliance happening, atleast until the latter half of the games.

yeah let's start, if fleck doesn't find an alliance she'll be hopping through trees like a lone wolf
 
The tributes were raised onto their pedestals, a vast land covered with snow not too deep, only about 3 inches, with an abundance of trees, this is what the arena looked like. Right in the center was the cornucopia where are the weapons and resources had been placed. The game would commence, and the bloodbath would begin, the 60-second countdown began, finally it got to the final 10, as it got to the last 5, the loud voice of the announcer boomed, "Let the 70th annual Hunger Games commence!" the clock hit 0 and the gong sounded, the 70th annual Hunger Games had just begun.

Silver had to adjust her eyes as she just come up through her tube, the countdown began and she examined the area. It was freezing cold and there was snow all around with an abundance of trees. The countdown reached the final 10. Finally it reached 0 and the gong sounded. As the gong rang Silver quickly ran to the cornucopia and was the first to reach it. She grabbed a backpack as quick as she could and then saw a pile of knives, she knew these knives were her only possible chance of winning and she grabbed a huge pile of them (10 knives). She then grabbed a pickaxe and used a nearby rope to tie it to her backpack so she could easily throw her knives if needed. She debated on taking a bow and arrow and then finally grabbed it as she avoided a flying knife from another tribute (D3 male-NPC). With great accuracy she threw a knife at the District 3 male tribute hitting him right in the heart. She then joined the other careers. She watched the other careers kill the D5 and D12 males. Then she turned her head to see the boy from district 9 slice the district 6 boy's throat open with a sickle. She was surprised at the boy's abilities, especially since he was from an outlying district. She turned her head as she heard the wailing and crying of the D9 female who looked to be only 12 as a career finished her off. Silver felt a bit guilty about killing the other tributes but she had to win to bring home goods and riches for her family. She felt pity on many of the tributes who died at the hands of the careers, mainly the D9 girl. Silver shook the thoughts from her head. She couldn’t let these emotions control her. After the bloodbath, the cannons went off and Silver retrieved the knives from all her victims and cleaned them off. She knew the cameras would be on them currently so she gave a cocky smirk just for the audience even though she truly didn’t feel right about this on the inside. Silver went and joined the other careers in priding themselves on their kills. She didn’t want to act like this but she needed to seem ruthless like the other careers, or they would probably suspect something odd of her. Silver was really just as scared as any of the other tributes here. (Careers just choose one random NPC to kill, only one for now, I will also have Talon kill one boy.)

He looked at the silver plate for a phew seconds before looking around at the beautiful icing covered ground, he glanced around at some of the scaredy trivutes, but he had to admit he was scared to, the seconds finished.Daniel looked around at the other career tributes then ran into the Cornucopia, then he saw the District 12 male in his way and got a nearby kukris and killed him quickly with no hesitasion, after he grabbed a backpack, 1 water canister, a dagger and 7 throwable knives and a pack of matches, he was considering getting more but then thought the other careers have some stuff already, then quickly ran, out of the corner of his eyes and caught a glimpse of Silver, for once he felt safe, he nodded to her and started running towards her. On the way he saw a spear and decided to get it quickly, he looked around at the mess of blood everywhere, he felt slightly bad seeing at how many dead tributes there already was, cannons kept going off, one by one, it was unbelievable, he sighed in sorrow then snapped back into reality and started running quicker.

Rosalina felt a rush of excitement through her vains, personally at the moment she found this way better than District 12 could ever be, looking at the irony silver plate she wondered why these games were invented, then she looked up and saw the other tributes standing stirnly waiting for the seconds to stop, finally the number 0 came, she ran into Cornucopia and grabbed a bow and arrow, a backpack, a thermal jacket,1 water canister and a 4 throwing daggers, a match and a sword, she tried getting a spear but then saw the Male District 4 Tribute take the nearest one, she wasn't going to risk going back into the Cornucopia, she saw her fellow tribute falling to the ground but didn't care, these games were about protecting yourself, she quickly grabbed a final rope then went into the woods, she stopped then thought she grabbed way to much, but in these games, there is no to much, then she silently whispered to herself, let the 70th Hunger Games Begin... Then ran off into the thick woods.

As Talon rose up from the tube onto his pedestal he saw a land filled with snow and trees. He grinned as he knew he could use the trees to his advantage. He looked at what was at the cornucopia and not too terribly close to it, probably out of harm’s way, was a backpack, Talon had to grab this, a little closer to the cornucopia was a sickle, the only weapon he could wield, but he thought if he went in he would probably get killed. Talon would see how this worked out. As he was contemplating these things in his head the gong went off, Talon ran to grab the backpack but another tribute had the sea idea, the district 5 male ,alone wrestled for the bag and won it over, he saw that the only person close to the sickle were the district 4 female and male, he knew they were both deadly especially with knives but he took the chance, Talon quickly grabbed the sickle and ran as fast as he could away from the cornucopia, which wasn’t very fast. Nobody seemed to be chasing him until the district 6 boy tackled him. Talon had been able to roll the boy over onto his back, Talon decided that he had to kill the boy quickly to save himself or the boy wold just chase him down again. Talon didn’t exactly like having to kill someone with a weapon because it wasn’t his way of liking to kill, but Talon slit the throat of the boy and then quickly ran into the woods. As soon as he felt he was far enough to stop running Talon climbed up into a tree, he examined the items he had gotten in his backpack, there was a pack of crackers, one knife an empty water canister, iodine, raw meat, a warm coat, a blanket, a rope, and matches. These things would definitely come in handy. Talon decided to quickly slip on the warm coat. It felt so nice in the freezing cold temperatures. Talon put the other contents in the bag except for the rope and blanket. He decided he would save the food for later. He thought about water and decided he would search for it in the morning. He had different plans for the raw meat instead of eating it though. Talon placed the blanket on the lower half of his body and used the rope to tie himself tight onto the tree. Talon decided to put his scythe in a side pocket on his backpack, he didn’t want to risk dropping it in his sleep, but he could quickly grab it from here if need be. Talon shut his eyes and decided to rest a bit. All that running made him tired.
 
After Daniel was safe he took a second to make a breathe, he quickly opened his backpack and searched through it for the coat, finally he found the coat at the very back of the bag, fortunate for him it was white so he can easily camouflage, he then took a peek at the arena and saw red blood stains everywhere on the white snow, it was as if someone spelled a bottle of red whine on a white napkin, relived he was put he decided to see how his allies were doing, he saw them kill a phew tributes then grab some weapons. Slouching under a tree Daniel waited for them arrive, he didn't bother hiding since he knew most of the tributes were scared of the careers.

Glancing around Rosalina went to look for the safest place to hide, she quickly zipped open her grey coloured bag and got out her warm coat, feeling calm she took a moment to breathe, then she noticed how she hadn't died into Cornucopia, then said silently to herself "I didn't die..." She smiled pleased with herself then counted quickly up all her supplies, "Enough to keep me alive, for know" she thought, she looked around for a good place to stay but she could only see miles of white snow everywhere, looking up she saw a tree and started climbing it's ruff brown branches to get a better view of the Arena.

(Ok now we just need the careers to kill the D9 female and D5 male so we just need two other careers to do that, they're still dead just two careers need to add they killed them to their beginning paragraph)
Silver looked around at the snow stained with red. She saw Daniel farther away by a tree and gestured to him that he should come and join the careers as the laughed over how helpless the careers were that they killed. She didn't understand why Daniel hadn't joined them to brag about his kill too. I mean, it wasn't uncommon for a career to be cocky. Maybe he wasn't like the other careers, on the inside Silver wasn't, but she needed to put on a good show, she needed to win, that meant killing anyone in her way. If she acted odd around the careers they would probably suspect something and kill her. Being in the career pack made her chances at winning greater. Maybe near the odd when it was down to mostly only careers she would teach them, just because it would be a great bloodbath if only the careers were left. All the careers seemed so bulky and strong and here Silver was small and frail, if she wouldn't be able to climb a tree in enough time they would beat her to a pulp.

Daniel saw Silver trying to tell him to come, he decided to join the group of Careers, he looked at them all, all so strong, he thought about how after some time when the remaining careers were left they'd have to kill eachother, he looked around at the snow, then touched it and then it started to trickle down, he felt so Optimistic here, everything looked so, well beautiful, how can the creators ruin a place like this? He decided to go up a tree to see if any tributes around then swiftly climbed it up to see Rosaliana from the weak district 12, looking around, she looked like she was only 2 minutes away, he decided to tell the others she was near but not to worry since if she comes this way she won't stand a chance since its 1 against 6.

She saw that a District 4 guy saw her, she started to panic as if they'd come after her, she decided to stay calm and to head the other direction, but unfortunately was actually heading closer to them. She lifted her brown snow boots through the hard icy snow, she thought about how her brother was in District 12 at the moment, then she came to a halt when she saw the face of a tribute not to far off, she didn't see there full face but decided to go into a nearby bush and listen to what they were doing, she might find out there weakness.

Ryuu had darted from his podium towards the cornucopia, being a career he had practiced all his life for this moment, easily and nimbly making his way to the centre, grabbing his favoured sickle and grabbing a backpack, swinging it onto his back. Picking out his targets, he quickly and violently confronted the D5 male and fully removed the boys head. Ryuu looked around, he knew he looked pathetically small compared to the other boys, but his height was surely compromised for seeing how brutal he could be in battle. He was watching the D2 male carefully, seeing how deep down he had seemed to have formed a crush on him.

April Emerson was not frightened, not even a bit, as her pedastol rose into the arena. She was confident and determined. The countdown felt like forever to her. 3... 2... 1! She dashes to the Cornucopia and is the second tribute to arrive thanks to her speed. She quickly grabs a backpack that's already stuffed with food. She stuffs a handful of knives in it, a slingshot, and a rope. As she grabbed the rope, the District 9 female grabs the other end and pulls. "Tug of war, eh?" April grunts out as she pulls as hard as she could and released the rope, causing the District 9 female to be hurled backwards into the snow. She quickly grabs a knife and stabs her in the heart, turning the snow around her red. She also grabs a thermal jacket and hangs it over her neck as she runs out of the bloodbath. An arrow swooshes inches above her shoulder, cutting a small hole in the jacket. As she runs out, she grabs a pickaxe from a dead tribute on the ground just seconds before the hovercraft comes to pick her up. She grabs a pack of matches that must've fallen from another tributes bag, and she ventures into the snow–covered woods to join the other careers.

(You killed a non-npc, please don't do that rn just kill a different tribute, commander is editing hers soon so she only kills 1 tribute so you can edit the district 10 tribute to the number of the district of the tribute she doesn't kill)
