District 2 was once known for its "Careers", volunteer adolescents trained in military technique and survival practices since early childhood, but many of the city's Peacekeepers -- including Rosalie's father -- have been stationed in other districts in an attempt to rebuild an obedient, peaceful nation. The older teens who might have volunteered to take Rosalie's place in years past now find themselves with duties of their own, stepping into positions of amateur surveillance and law enforcement to keep District 2 running smoothly. *Rosalie has two older brothers. Marcus, at twenty-one, is no longer eligible for the Games and works as a security officer. Ambrosius is seventeen and, after being crippled in the Rebel attacks on District 2, has taken a position repairing weaponry for the Nut. Livia, her mother, is a school teacher while Dominic, her father, is a Peacekeeper, currently stationed in District 3. *Rosalie knows her strengths. She has never been a strong child, unlike many of the trained warriors in District 2, but she's crafty and quick. Fast as a whip and sharp as a hornet, as her father would say. Quick and light on her feet, Rosalie can outrun everyone she knows, leaping with surprising grace over any obstacles that arise in her path. She is also extremely masterful with thrown projectiles -- particularly daggers -- and feels most comfortable with a selection of knives at hand. She can use them to disarm you without a scratch or she can use them to slit your throat in one clean slice. She struggles with swords, lacking the necessary arm strength, but understands basic fencing maneuvers. The best way to ensure your failure in this competition would be to give Rosalie something sharp. *She also has her weaknesses. With skinny arms, sharp elbows and lean, coltish legs, Rosalie has stretched up to a gawky 5'3" over the last year and remains, quite literally, a ninety-eight pound weakling, despite possessing a voracious appetite. She is confident and precocious in a way that, at it's best, comes across as charming... and at it's worst, extremely obnoxious. Although she can be sarcastic, sneering and spitting mad in one moment, she has flashes of childish sweetness and innocence twisted in as well. Having been raised in District 2 (the best District outside of the Capital, everyone knows that) has given her the mindset of a warrior, but it's paired with the heart of a thirteen year old girl. She can be reckless and has a tendency to overestimate her own cleverness and power. With two brothers that were Careers and a father in the military, how could she be anything but a fighting machine? It's in her blood. In another three years' time, Rosalie would have been a front-runner with sponsors lining up by the dozen. As things are, she'll have to settle for being an underdog- after all, that doesn't mean she won't still be a force to be reckoned with. * *While not pretty in the typical sense, Rosalie is magnetic- a careless charmer. She is vivacious and animated, and has never wanted for friends despite a wholehearted lack of effort on her part. Once earned, her loyalty is steadfast, but her true friends are few and far between. * * * * * * * * * * Examples: Requested Membership?: |
