Appearance:
Robin, overall, is what most people would consider cute. Not extraordinarily pretty, but not ugly. If you asked Robin, she probably wouldn't even know what she looked like; considering she doesn't have a mirror and water tends to distort your reflection.Personality:
Robin is a little on the shorter side, about 5'4". She is by no means anorexic, but there is a lack of food in her district. She weighs somewhere in the ballpark of 110 pounds.
Robin's hair was actually how her mother chose her name. It is a burnt reddish-brown color; that of a robin's breast. She leaves down and never bothers with cutting it. Generally, it looks unkempt and slightly frizzy. It reaches mid-way down her back. For a special occasion, she might braid it, or pull the front pieces out of her face.
Since she works out in the sun so often, Robin's skin is quite tan. She was born with much lighter skin, and used to have splotchy red burns on her a lot. Her mother figured her skin must've toughened up after all the years of collecting pigmentation.
Robin's face is a round shape, giving her a more innocent and girl-ish look despite her boyish behavior and dress. Her eyes are deep blue colors that always have a mischievous look about them. Her mouth is a little on the small side, but her slightly fuller lips balance that out. She has slightly crooked teeth, and a few yellow spots, but over all she has good hygiene and has avoided cavities.
Robin has never been a girly girl. She absolutely despises dresses and other restricting clothing. She doesn't see the point in being polite to people and would much rather say what she is thinking out right. Many people- older and younger, but especially women- don't like her very much. They think she is too brash and needs to filter her thoughts.History:
Robin doesn't care much what they think. She has hardly ever been bothered by what others say about her. "Never let go of who you are," is her motto, and she tries her best to stick to it every day.
Arguably one of her biggest flaws is that fact that Robin never thinks before she rushes into a situation. She's always looking for an adventure; something fun to keep her life interesting. Half of the time she ends up in a tight spot and is thankfully saved by one of her brothers.
Robin's family means everything to her; and she also counts her friends as family. One of her redeeming traits is how loyal she is. Others would say it’s her honesty, but some dislike that trait quite a bit.
Robin isn't overly nice to strangers, but she is courteous. If she gets a 'gut feeling' about someone, she'll listen to it, but she generally tries not to be too rude. xD
Robin has a very close-knit family consisting of her mother, her father, and her two brothers Simon and Michael. Her grandmother passed away when she was seven, but she had a great influence on Robin's personality.Codeword: odair
She told Robin to never let go of who she was, and when she died Robin decided to make sure she never let go. Although she is mostly okay now, Robin was horribly depressed at first. She was also very young when it happened, and didn't understand what happened too well. Robin still misses her grandmother. Whenever she has a problem, she goes to her grandma's garden in their backyard and 'talks' to her.
Being the baby of the family, everyone loves to alternately tease her and dote on her. Robin's mother had always wanted a little girl and was so excited when she had Robin. As it turned out, Robin is quite the tom boy but her mother still loves her. (Although she always tried to get her to wear dresses and act 'proper.')
Robin's father is always ready with a joke, and her brothers may be mean to her- but boy, if anyone else is, they will regret being BORN!
Her family eats dinner together every night, but this is often their only meal of the day. They try to make light of their situation and they are always thankful that they're not from district twelve. This is what Robin’s mother says every night at dinner- “We may not have much, but those poor folks in district twelve are worse off than us, so you be grateful for this food.”
Robin grew up with her brothers, running outside and wreaking havoc. She never seemed to get along with the others girls as well, since they were grossed out by her willingness to get dirty or eat worms. Because of this, her brother's friends have always been her friends, too. Sometimes though, when they didn't want a girl trailing around, they would be pretty mean to Robin. She never cried though; she always went home and helped her dad or her mom work.
Robin mostly helps her mother in the orchards picking fruit. She doesn’t enjoy the job very much, and is always restless as she has to repeat the same motion over and over. She sometimes sneaks off to talk to a friend, or she hums to herself and daydreams while she works.
