Age: 14
Gender: Female
District/Area: District 4
Appearance:
Cora has medium length curly hair so dark it could easily be mistaken for black. She has a rather thin face with virtually flawless features. She is tall and thin, and people are partly nice to her because of her looks, but partly because she is just a good friend. Outwardly she boasts and brags about her appearance but she has her insecurities.Personality:
She has a small tattoo of a dolphin on the inside of her left wrist that she got on her thirteenth birthday. She is quite proud of it, and it is an object of envy among her friends and her District because tattoos are so expensive.
She has quick feet from her years of Career training, and is naturally a good swimmer, coming from District Four. She hides easily, again due to training and body size. She has been training to be a career since she was eight, and wants to volunteer when she is eighteen.
Cora is very nice to her friends and family. When she is in an especially good mood, she is even likeable and witty. She can be counted on to tell a joke to break the tension, good intended or not, and will listen to your problems. She is not afraid to give honest opinions or advice.History:
She talks too much about her seemingly good looks, which aren't really THAT good, but her friends put up with it. As stated above, she has insecurities. As well she can talk about stunning looks, she believes she looks . . . less than normal. She also does her best to be kind yet deadly, which is not an easy feat.
Cora will do anything to get what she wants. She wants desperately to be in the Hunger Games when she is eighteen, and so has been training since age 8. She is rather spoiled.
She is usually in trouble for her "creative" ideas and schemes, but usually does not get severe punishment, as she tends to sidestep most of the blame. It also helps that her dad's reputation is rather great and he is respected in District 4.
She looks ahead to winning the games in a few years.
At the age of 8, her older brother, Thrust, was killed in the Hunger Games. She took this out on some things in the house, until eventually her best friend Sandy had to come over, as she was the only one who could calm Cora out of her rages. The house had been demolished. As they were not poor, this wasn't something completely devastating, but Cora's abilities to destroy had been discovered. She went into training and has gone every day since she was 8.Codeword: odair
Her father is a high class fisherman who is away most of the time. He fishes normal fish, like salmon and cod, but also exotic fish to be pets of the wealthy. He is well liked in the district, and most people buy from him, much to the disdain of the other fisherman. He spends almost all of his time, except weekends, on his fishing ship out in the ocean, so he usually sells his fish through his workers and crew.
Cora's mom works as a marine specialist for the Capitol. She is underpaid by Capitol standards, but her income certainly helps the Djebba account.
Cora spends most of her time at her best friend Sandy's house. Since her family is away all the time, Sandy's family is like her second family. She spends her weeks there and spends weekends with her dad at their house. The only time the whole family is together is during the holidays. Cora and Sandy go to the same school, so they walk together in the mornings.
Comments/Other:
If you are wondering about her name, I made it Cora because it sounds like Coral and the djebba is a type of fish.
