Farida Nightwish, Avox (Finished)

[jess]

Name: Farida Nightwish
Age: 17
Gender: Female
District/Area: Avox
Appearance:

Farida has mid-length brunette hair which has a few black or blonde highlights. She has sea blue eyes which are spaced normally apart. She has an average build and a slight tan. Some people say that she's just a normal girl when they see her normally, but when they talk to her, they can see her tongue is cut off. It looks rather dreadful to the eye, a cut-off tongue, and Farida's appearance flaw is her very, very short tongue that makes her inable to speak.

Although her parents used to call her 'pretty princess', she is not that pretty. She isn't ugly, she's just normal, apart from her cut-off tongue. But she isn't a prissy girl with long wavy hair and incredibly skinny and she doesn't wear dresses. She just looks normal, although slightly exhausted most of the time from serving the Capitol.

Personality:

Farida used to be quite talkative, before she had her tongue slit off. She talked about anything she can, but she had an irritating habit of asking so many questions, some even impossible to answer, like what happens after you die, how it feels to be a baby (as most people never remember their babyhood).

The reason she did this is because she was curious to know everything. Farida is now always bursting to ask millions of questions swimming through her mind, but she can't, and it's killing her that she can't talk as she doesn't have a tongue. Farida is a cheerful girl who never worries about anything not worth worrying about.

She's intelligent and knows quite a lot of things about the world, but the things she doesn't know she won't be likely to ever know, as the life of an Avox is not the most exciting. One day she wants to escape from the capitol's clutches - run away with a group of friends she can trust, some will be Avoxes - find a secret sign language so they can communicate and be safe and sound.

History:

One day, Farida Nightwish committed a crime that she never thought was a crime. She doesn't know what she did or how she did it, but soon the hovercraft was above her and took her prisoner. Her parents saw everything. "No! Farida!" They cried, but all in vain, for their only daughter had been taken aboard the capitol's hovercraft to have her tongue removed.

Farida was to live in the capitol and serve its people. She became quite a meek little Avox at sixteen years old. She did all her chores in silence (not that she could make a sound with her lips) and didnt show any signs of complaint. She was respected a little by the capitol residents she served.

A year has gone by since this Avox had her tongue slit off, and Farida has developed pure hatred for the capitol. She likes the food but everything else is just awful. Its like she's trapped behind bars in the capitol and she cant escape at all.

If Irene or any other of my characters are Reaped, could Farida be their Avox?

Hi there! This looks good, but could she have more of a personality flaw? She seems too cheerful and too smart. The talkative thing, unfortunately, doesn't apply as a flaw anymore because she's an Avox^^ (though keep that in). Also, can you speak more about why she was turned into an Avox? What did she do? Also, talk about her life before becoming an Avox, please. Fix those things up and you're good to go!
