Lydie Mansonna, District 10

[kaylin]

Name: Lydie Mansonna, Dee
Age: 16
Gender: Female
District/Area: District 10
Appearance:

Lydie has big blue eyes with short eyelashes. They don't really look like you would think they would, wide, beautiful, and innocent. They have more of a sensible and rugged look about them.
Lydie has full, pretty pink lips, that actually don't stand out too much against her pinkish/tan skin. Her hair is a nice, light brown color and she often wears it in a ponytail. It's about shoulder length.

Her body is built so that she's about 5'5" and strong, but not buff. She wears a faded and worn, checkered, long-sleeved shirt, and she keeps the sleeves rolled up to her elbows. The shirt's colors are light blue and dark blue. For pants she wears capris, and she usually just goes barefoot around her home, but if she has to walk a far distance or on unsafe ground she wears a pair of old sneakers that are way too tight on her toes. If she has to be in the hot sun, she wears a light brown cowgirl hat.

Personality:

Lydie is a very down to earth, stable person. she isn't very day-dreamy, she likes to live in reality and loves to plan into the future, as it makes her feel more in control of her life. If she doesn't have some control over her life, she often breaks down. That's why she almost always has an air-tight schedule, and when she does, she always follows it. However, sometimes she doesn't have a schedule, and on those days she just has to plan as she goes.

Lydie's a super tomboy/tough girl. She's a farm girl and that's all she knows how to be. She doesn't know how to use any fancy weapons, but after years of butchering animals for food, she's ok with a knife, and after getting in many a fist fight at school and around town, she definitely knows how to throw a good punch. She can be rebellious if she knows something's wrong, but she's not stupid. She knows when to give up. She knows almost everything there is to know about plants, and she loves to climb trees.

Lydie loves animals a TON. She does live on a farm. She has five horses and they are here absolute best friends, as she doesn't exactly make friends easily at school. She knows how to ride everything from a pig to a cow and she loves to take care of her animals. She takes her chores very seriously and she loves to be responsible for them. Her favorite activities are taking her horses out onto the trails for rides and doing her daily chores around the farm. She loves doing farm chores, but she hates doing household cleaning, it bores her to death. She is a very independent person and she's usually very responsible.

History:

Lydie's history isn't too complicated. She was born and raised a farm girl, taught the ways of animals and how to both take care of them and use them productively and successfully. She was taught only to form attachments with ones not needed for food, and how to take care of them while they were alive, so that they could be a good meal when they were dead. Lydie was taught not to get too attached to her farm animals, because one day she was going to have to have to slaughter them herself. Therefore, Lydie now doesn't grow attachments to easily, and she's not really that emotional of a person either. That's the history of how her personality came to be.

Lydie has three siblings, two older and one younger. She has an older sister, Emily, and an older brother, John. Emily is 17 and John is 18, almost 19. John is a hardworking young man who isn't quite as dutiful with his chores as Lydie is, but can do some that Lydie can't, such as ones that have to do with heavy lifting and strength. Emily, on the other hand, is very frail. She often gets very sick and usually always at least has a slight cough and a congested nose. This is because she was born premature. And Lydie has one more sibling, May, who's 9. She's a happy and energetic little girl, always running around and looking for a fun way to help. She can be annoying, but not all the time. She's healthy and strong, and once she learns to control her energy, she'll be a great farm hand too. That's Lydie's family history.

Lydie was born healthy, but on the thin side. She soon fattened up though, and that pudge turned to muscle as soon as she started to do some chores that required more strength. Her mother named her Lydie after her grandmother, and Lydie loves her name. Lydie has only been in real danger once, when she had the chicken pox and got deathly sick. However, she recovered eventually and she rarely gets sick now. Lydie is a rule follower by nature, and she never does or plans to rebel. Every now and then she'll have a rebellious thought, and she's almost always scared of the Hunger Games, especially around reaping time, but she knows what will happens if she rebels, and she also knows that it won't be good. And she also knows that she does not want to take any chances.
