"I always love to see a new tribute join us... We never know what they'll be like, or what they've got up their sleeves." -Fillius Ravenscar
Name: Violet Montgomery
Age: 15
Gender: Female
District: Capitol
Physical Appearance: She simply adores the color purple, which is fitting, considering it is her name. Her eyes are a bright plum color, which are permanently lined with black eyeliner. Her wavy hair is lavender, with light pink swirled into it. She is extremely short for her age, barely standing five feet tall. She is petite, with a slim, athletic built body.
Personality: Violet is impulsive and dangerous, going to all lengths to ensure that people believe what she says. She had never been one to care about other peoples opinions- she would much rather just do what she wants. She has enough confidence for the entire Capitol, and isn't afraid of anything. She thinks that you miss out in life by being to scared to open your mouth. Another thing about Violet is you can never get her to shut up. Whether it is about the clouds, or Snickerdoodles, she will talk and talk..and talk. She is also super protective of people that she cares about, and blames herself when something bad happens.
Craft: She is an artist. Or she thinks she is. She can paint anything, and you would think you are staring at a photograph. You can tell what kind of mood she is in when she paints- bright colors mean she is upset and dark colors mean she is in a great mood (She is a little mixed up, alright?!)
Skills: She is tiny, which allows her to hide without anyone seeing her. She is also incredibly agile, and can be extremely quiet when moving. Her best skill would be that she can talk most people into doing whatever she wants. All she has to do is bat her eyes, and people melt.
Weapon: Just a regular sword. She dreams of having one that is covered in amethyst gems on the handle.
District Token: A silver locket, encrusted with bright purple gems. She never let anyone see what was inside of it, but there is a picture of her and her brother.
Back-Story: She lived a great life, always smiling, never caring. She never had to deal with anything bad happening to her. She had caring parents and siblings from the Heavens. Her life was perfect. It wasn't until she turned 13 when she noticed Alec (brother) was becoming more and more depressed, angry and hostile. Things started to become strained in her house, and when she turned 14, her parents finally decided they needed to do something about it. They decided to send him to a special facility, one where he could get better. When he found out about it, it turned him absolutely mad, and he killed his parents and twin sister.

"Will you all just get the hell out of my way?" I snapped, but the words were lost in the sea of voices that surrounded me. Annoyed, I just pushed way through the crowd, my nose filled with the smell of thousands of different perfumes, all with the same purpose. Color surrounded me, bright pinks and grassy greens. The color scheme made sense. Bright colors were supposed to represent the colors of mourning, and sadness. At least, that's what I thought.
So lost in the thoughts of my next masterpiece, I didn't even notice Liliana slip into the gap next to me. "Wonder who will be the next two victims." She commented, and a faint grin curled onto my face.
"You know, that isn't funny." I warned her, breaking out into a smile. She looked gorgeous, as usual. Her golden brown hair was tied into a tight bun on her head, her bright blue eyes shining with the specks of dark green. She was wearing a short blue dress, one with a high neckline and ruffles.
Her appearance made me glance down at my own reflection hesitantly. It was a bright purple color that was short, with a low neckline. My lavender hair was tied into a tight fishtail, and the whitish highlights that I recently added shone in the sun. Wearing black heels, I was attempting to gain a few more inches. I knew eight year olds taller than I was.
Liliana punched me lightly. "Stop staring at yourself and listen!" She hissed, and it suddenly dawned on me that someone was speaking. She was an odd looking woman, with bright yellow hair and a dark blue suit.
"Aren't you all just delighted?" She squealed, revealing a high pitched voice that resembled nails on a chalkboard. "I know I am!" She excitedly walked over to the glass jar that held the names, her heels clacking against the stage.
She put her hand into the jar, but took it out seconds later, without a slip of paper. "You know," She said, earning a round of groans from the audience. "In all these Reapings, the girls always get called first. Always."
I rolled my eyes. "Well what else do you want to do?" I asked, quiet enough that she couldn't hear me.
"Well." She announced, clacking over to the glass bowl on the opposite side of the stage."I am going to do it differently." Dipping her manicured hand into the bowl, she pulled out a slip of paper, and I half expected another speech before she read the name.
"The male Tribute is-" The name was barely out of her mouth when a boy spoke up, Volunteering. My head snapped to the sight of the boy, who was walking towards the stage with a controlled sadness. His face was twisted up into a smile, but his watery blue eyes reflected sadness, like he just lost something.
Once he was on the stage, I watched the other glass bowl, the sun catching on it, momentarily blinding me. "What kind of an idiot Volunteers?" Liliana snorted beside me, but a protective feeling washed over me.
"Maybe he thought it was his only choice." I mumbled, ignoring what the boy was saying. Liliana laughed at me, assuming I was joking.
When she realized I was serious, she rolled her eyes. "Seriously, it would be stupid to Volunteer for these kinds of things. Instant death."
I raised my eyebrow at her, watching her. "So you think that you or I would die the first day in the Arena?" I questioned, anger filling my body.
She nodded. "You don't have it in you." We snapped our attention to the stage as the female was picked out of the jar.
"Harriet Lauren!" She announced, searching the crowd. The name was unknown to me, but Lilian's words still managed to dig a hole into my heart.
Ripping my best friend's arm off of mine, I took a step forward. "Still don't think I have it in me?" I questioned, talking another step forward.
Raising my hand, I twisted my face into a grin. "I Volunteer."
