Introduction
...BUT if you really don't care about spoilers!!!
The basic plot of the story is that the nation of Panem, which was formerly America, is divided into 12 Districts and the Capital. Sometime before the book there was a war, and the Capital completely annihilated District 13 because it rebelled, and in order to quell future rebellions among the remaining Districts, the Hunger Games were established.
The main idea of the Hunger Games is that two children from each of the 12 Districts (One boy and one Girl), have to pitch it out to the death while the rest of the nation is forced to watch and pretend to enjoy it. Over the years the Games have become more and more complex, eventually getting to be where the kids were placed in an arena with provisions to last about a week, and are forced to kill each other off to survive.
After each tribute is chosen, they are then sent to the capital to be examined and interviewed and a bunch of other stuff that the gamemasters use to keep things interesting during the game. They are also judged, and given a score between one and twelve, so that people can place bets on who will win, and sponsors can choose to donate supplies to the tributes in game.
Our story will begin as each tribute is arriving to the capital for the pre-games interviews.
---------------------------------------------------------
Some things to keep in mind as you fill out the sheet:
Each District has a specialty. This oughta be a part of your characters history, or something.
1 - Jewelry
2- Medicines
3 - Electronice
4 - Fishing
5 - Animal herding
6 - Science
7 - Lumber
8 - Textiles
9 - Oil
10 - Mathmatics
11 - Farming
12 - Coal
Your character can be either a 'Career' or a 'Loner'. The difference being that Careers were trained from an early age to be a part of the Hunger Games, while Loners were chosen and just have to deal with it. Careers have a beter chance of winning, but everyone generally views them as assholes, so they might not be getting help from sponsors.
There is a limit of 24 characters that will actually be competing in the RP, but if you wish your character can play a supporting role as a Sponsor. Sponsors will decide what supplies their District gets based on their score during Judging. I will accept 12 Sponsors.
Sponsors: You don't need to pick what district you are sponsoring until after the judging. Once the judging is complete, choose the one you think is best, first come first serve on this one.
Finally, to fill the number of spots in this RP (36 is a LOT!!) I will accept a maximum three characters from each person. Two are allowed to be tributes, one must be a Sponsor if you have three. Also, if you have two tributes, they cannot be from the same District.

Now, of course, being a writer you must to write! But wouldn't you like writing better if there were prizes?!?!
THATS RIGHT! The top three finishers will receive a custom made signature declaring their excellence, and the winner will get that as well as this really official looking prize signature!
What do they look like, you ask? Well... you'll have to make it into the top three to find out!!! I mean, it's not like I haven't designed them yet or anything....
Oh fine, so I haven't. But I mean, there's plenty of time!! There WILL be a prize, I give you my word!!! :P

Re: [OOC] The Hunger Games: A tide of blood
And I'm sorry smrtazz, I haven't been on :( Sent you a PM though, hope that helps!
I'll put you down for those spots, tempest
Re: [OOC] The Hunger Games: A tide of blood
BUT ONLY IF
We begin from the day of the Reaping. If we start the day of the games, I'm not really interested.
Re: [OOC] The Hunger Games: A tide of blood
[OOC] The Hunger Games: A tide of blood
Ok everyone! Just a few things that make this thread worth looking at :)
We'll be starting after we have 14 characters in the game. (Or whenever I feel like we have as much as we're going to get, whichever comes first.)
Also, we'll be keeping a tab on who kills who. Person with the most kills gets a goodies basket!!! :D
I can't stress enough how important it is to read the rules. The one post per three days rule will be enforced MERCILESSLY, so make sure you PM me if you need to be gone for a long time.
Since the kill count is important, I use a random number generator to decide the order in which players get to kill off other players who have timed out. Basically speaking, when a person hasn't posted for three days, the first person on tis list has the right to kill them, and will have one day to execute the person, or I'll take the kill for myself. These kills DO count towards the kill count.
The list is as follows:
D8F
D2F
D2M
D5F
D6F
D3M
D10F
D11M
D12F
D3F
D4F
D9F
D4M
D12M
D9M
D7M
D1M
D5M
D6M
D10M
D1F
D8M
D7F
D11M
You'll probably see this shorthand a couple of times, and if you're confused, let me explain: D = District, # = District number, M or F = Male or female of that district.
That's all for now, once characters are accepted more information will be brought up as needed.
