I hated Alkin. Oh god I hated him so much. It was a blessing in disguise, really, when he was killed. Cassandra, on the other hand, I really liked her. When she died I felt sort of... sad, if that makes sense. I hadn't really written with her before all of the Games stuff, but I felt like she grew in just that short amount of time she spent in the Bloodbath. I loved how sweet she was, yet how ready she was to defend herself. I was so excited for her to interact a bit more later on. (:

Hawthorn was the first character I ever made on any site, and he will always be one of my favorite characters because of memories. But he was not a good character in my opinion, and I wanted to kill him off in an awesome way. I loved the arena, and the other tributes that year. Then you have Dante, who I have trouble finding words to describe my feeling about. He was the most fun I've had writing in a long time, and his posts were so much fun to write. Everyone's reactions to the posts were great too . I would have to say Dante is my favorite tribute, because I had a lot more fun with him.

My first tribute was SPerring, and I honestly hated him. I never got the chance to make him into somehting, so there was nothing there to work with. Although I do say being the first tribute killed is a feat! My second character Surge was a really decent guy and I miss him a lot, I just think when I worte him I didn't stay so true to character and who he was. But he will always be my purple-nekkid boy <3

Out of them all I truly did love Haff the most. I have never gotten so much from a character, when I wrote him I felt as if he was there telling me what to say and what to do. He was a character that I emmensley enjoyed writing and every piece I wote with him made me smile, becuase it was all him and everything that he was meant to be. I loved his love for horses and how he saw the world, in his eyes it was so much different from what most saw. To me he was a special boy and I loved the way he was so innocent and took almost nothing to heart until he realised what was happening, he was a brave boy. My favourite part about him was the way he saw the place he lived in, he truly believed that horses were like him and that people just didn't understand, his love for the beasts was what inspired me to write so much, his words were like mine and when I wrote him it was as if I could feel him nudging me along, doing everything he would and feeling, seeing and understanding the world that was around him. I will miss him forever <333

Well, of the two tributes I've had, I'd say my favorite was Razor Creel; The 2nd character I ever made on here.

Looking back, I have to say I'm a little surprised that I got as far as I did with him, being a site noob as I was at the time. I remember when I looked at the reaping thread and saw he was reaped, I had like less than fifty posts and no alliance xD.

What I liked about him the most was his personality, flawed as it was. When I set out to make him, I wanted to have a Career; Someone who was real gung-ho about getting into the games, but suffered from the twisted line of thinking that could potentially result from such an upbringing in district two. He believed he deserved the harsh treatment given to him by his parents and peers and needed to win to prove that all of his suffering meant something.

But he also had an idealized view of the games, so when confronted by the harsh reality of the Arena, he couldn't take it. I gotta thank GreenBeads for the wonderfulness that was Saskia, cause interaction with that character gave me the fuel for Razor to think: "Maybe things are different elsewhere. Maybe... I can be different too."

Thoughts he then discarded as a pipe dream when she died and he was unable to do anything about it; Slipping back into his career mode as his stressed out mind used Saskia and his Fathers voice as the differing parts of his conscience. I was truly saddened when he died; a career boy going that far, only to be slain by a tiny wisp of a girl. It had looked like a clear victory for sure. But the 58th will always be my favorite games.Greenbeads, Rosetta, you're both awesome Leskor forever


With Sawyer, While I felt the quality of my posts had improved, I found myself getting annoyed every other games day or so. He was my first, and so far, my only 1st person perspective Character, and I think I'm going to keep it that way. It was hard for me

He was meant to be an outcast, a rebel; free thinker If you will. He was supposed to be sarcastic and nihilistic and I felt like he got away from me and started writing himself as this whiny coward that was running away from himself and who people expected him to be.

I will say I liked this though; Throughout the 59th Arena I felt he was deeply affected by everyone he met, realizing that hey, the rest of the tributes are just teens like him, forced to fight to the death for others amusement and for the Capitol to make a statement. In another life, they might have all been friends.

I think that's when I first got the idea for the pyre.

Going into the finale, I was fairly certain he wouldn't be making it out and by the time it was clear he was going to die, it was like a spark of the character I had intended him to be had ignited. For one, I didn't want him to come in second, because I felt it would turn into Razor Death v2.0. And I did not want to repeat myself.

I know I caught some flak and the online equivalent of "hard glares" from a few people for having him take himself out in the Finale, but I'd have to say I'm okay with it. In that final post, he was the rebellious pyro from three I had set out to create, and he didn't do what the capitol wanted. He died on his own terms, in his own way, surrounded by the thing that he was obsessed with.

I realize this is a bit long and I don't know If it rambles but hey! This thread is for people to explain the thoughts they have about their tributes So, I figured I'd give all my thoughts.

Congratulations, you now know what Charade thinks of his charries!
and how he often refers to them in his head like they are real people xD
