Name: Jade Starr
Age: 17 (as of June 21, 2011)
Gender: Male
District/Area: District 9
Appearance: Well Tanned, because he runs so much. Dark Brown Hair and Eyes, both often are called Black. Hair is between 1" and 2" long. Fingers are Thin and Nimble. As mentioned above he runs a lot, anywhere from two and three hours, because of this reason he eats a decent bit but can remain so thin. Nearly 6' 1" tall. Not very strong but not weak either, Jade can do around 75 push-ups in 2min. Speaking of weight, Jade's is 155lbs.
Personality: Tries to be strong emotionally for others but always cares. Jade was once protective of his good friend, Seth, but that friend was sadly Reaped in the 2nd quarter quell and obviously died there (Jade was only 11 at that time and thus could not take his place) and to this day, he's very sensitive about not making friends and plans to take someone's place in the hunger games...that is if anyone he knows is ever reaped. Doesn't really have any friends now but it's just because no one has ever gotten to know him before.
He often goes for runs around the outer edges of the district normally lasting for two or three hours. Most of the time, he plans different circumstances out whenever he is alone or running. Jade also used to hunt with his dad's spare set of throwing knives and a pair of short swords, at which he's become quite an expert. Any other weapon in Jade's hands is basically useless (except MAYBE a sword, but that's doubtful) because he relies heavily on speed when he is in a fight.
Jade is very protective of those who he deems weak or defenseless, and once he has made up his mind about someone in this regard, it's hard to change his mind. If Jade sees two people in a fight, he's more than likely going to intervene on whomever he decides is in the right, occasionally being incorrect as to who the person in the "right" is.
Jade had always been patriotic and often blind to the cruel or harsh actions of the peacekeepers and officials of Panam. Because of this, his view of the Hunger Games, despite what happened to his friend Seth, is similar to that of those in the capitol. He believes that the children don't really die but are whisked to a new place where they continue to live in solitude, possibly to be trained as peacekeepers. His patriotic sense is known among several of the peacekeepers in District 9 and because of such, they treat him with kindness rarely shown to others among the district.
History: Jade's dad is (or was) the Dangerous Game Hunter (DGH) for the district. He recently hunted with the other two DGH, but often times he went alone. A few times Jade hunted with his dad so one day he could join him outside the district. That's right, his dad is allowed OUTSIDE the district limits. But only through the gate, only after being inspected. His job is one of the higher paying ones in the District ment that Jade and his father were never without food, but his father felt it very important to save as much as possible whenever he could. This might have been because for a few months every year there isn't much game so Mr Starr's income drop greatly. Jade's mother sadly died when Jade was only 3, He was always told it was because She had trouble with Jade's sister (who also died). For his 12th birthday Jade received a poster of a District Nine Victor named Asahel from many years ago who was a dear friend of Jade's father before the games. After Asahel won, he promised to always provide for Jade if anything were to happen to his father.
One day his dad simply never returned from hunting and was declared dead by wild game. Jade begun to follow in his footsteps for a few months when suddenly and unexpectedly, the hunting program of District 9 was closed. Jade was shocked by this turn of events but the very last day that Jade was out hunting, he found a note left by his father which read:
[glow=BlueViolet,2,750]Dear Reader,
If you're reading this, by now you know that we're dead. Or probably captured by the capitol. Either way, there is no hope for us, but there just might be some left for you. Hunting outside of the district has given me and my partners many advantages that most ordinary people in the district don't have. We get the best training and a little bit more excitement than most district dwelling people, but there are also some things that I consider to be a burden. One, I'm away from my son for several days at a time and I can ofter get injured while out here, which means less time at home with my son. Anyway, back to the reason why I was writing you...
You see, the biggest blessing that is often a burden of hunting out here is the people you meet. You've probably never heard of such a thing before but often times I'll meet a person wondering through the woods. They won't have a thing with them but stories and the occasional weapon. I've learned a lot from them about the capitol, other districts, and I can't forget the rumors. Enclosed is a list of things I have learned from travelers...
And if one day, something happens to us. Find my son and follow the markings. He will know what they are and if you follow them, they will lead you to a safe place. My partners might be there; I might as well, but who knows.
------------------------------------------
Remember: Trust only your partners, and trust them as if your life depended on it. Which it does.
Godspeed,

The rock in this note belonged to his father and every first born son in the Starr family. As mentioned before, the very next day after Jade found this note the hunting program was shut down entirely. All weapons had to be turned into the peacekeepers and every house was searched with high tech capitol equipment. No weapon were allowed to remain except those in the hands of the peacekeepers. Jade had no choice but to become a citizen of the new District 9, until the time comes for him to follow his father's markings with a team of his own.
