[align=left][font=courier][color=black]Short Description:

[font=courier][color=black]Eyes:
Wren's eyes are one of her more prominent features. Contrasting with her pale complexion, Wren's eyes are piercing green orbs that appear to see further than the exterior and holding her gaze may become quickly uncomfortable. Her eyelashes are naturally quite long and thick. Wren's eyes are one of her more pretty and feminine features.

Hair:
Wren is a natural red-head, the only one in her living family. Her hair reaches about mid-way down her back as she rarely cuts or styles it. She will usually have it back into a high ponytail to keep it out of her eyes whilst she is training. Her hair cascades down in tangled waves, as Wren cares little for it and allows it to do it's own thing.

Lips:
Wren's lips are a pretty shade of pink. You'll usually see them curled up into a smirk or not moving much at all. Other than the occasional scowl, not much seems to cross Wren's lips.

Height & Weight:
The thing that makes Wren stand out a little to the other Careers in her district is her height. Standing at about five foot tall, Wren is considerably smaller than most other girls, especially for her age. She dislikes others commenting on this, however. She has a small build and is quite light, about a hundred and fourteen pounds.

Skin:
Wren's complexion is pale, but not too extreme. Across her face and arms are light freckles dotted here and there, some more prominent than others. Wren's skin is mostly quite smooth, apart from where she has suffered injuries during training.

Torso:
Wren's body is not as toned as other Careers as she focuses more on her speed and agility. She has a small build and short-ish legs. She is often teased for having a 'boy's chest' as her breasts are not very prominent. As for figure, Wren is pretty much a pencil with some amount of hips. Her legs are quite toned and slim however as she runs a lot.

Clothing:
You will rarely find Wren in anything formal. She favours casual clothing, mostly oversized t-shirts and fitting trousers with trainers or pumps. The only time she will wear a dress is at the Reaping, and that's only so that her father continues to pay for her training. She wears few accessories and cares little for decorative items. Appearance is not important to Wren.

[align=left][font=courier][color=black]Short Description:

[font=courier][color=black]Personality:
Wren is a closed-off person who can often be found dwelling with in her own thoughts. Those who know her would often describe her as quiet and reserved, but never shy. As far as conversations go, Wren does not really put a lot of effort in and often gives short abrupt answers that will end a discussion and result in awkward silences. Though Wren is incapable of noticing this and is generally not very good in social situations. She prefers alone time and sees little interest in events involving large groups of people.

When insulted, Wren becomes extremely defensive and will often say things she doesn't mean, or rather things she doesn't really think through first. She will lash out and end up hurting herself and the other person badly before her rage simmers. Once she has calmed down, she's able to think straight once more but will still hold grudges against someone who has insulted her. She is easily angered and will need to be restrained.

What comes out of Wren's mouth is often rude and sarcastic, if not painfully honest. She has little consideration for other's feelings and will give her opinion, never mind the circumstances or results. Because of this, many dislike Wren and choose not to be around her and she's happy that way.

Wren is very intelligent when she's thinking straight. Perhaps not academically, but strategically she is very cunning and sly. Her risk-taking is what gives her an edge, but not to the point that she'd get herself killed. Wren does not laugh in the face of danger, but she does not shake like a frightened rabbit when something frightens her. Fear is merely a creation of the mind, she tells herself, but danger is ever-so real.

Wren is not all cold. Underneath the many layers of rudeness and standoffishness is a girl who just wants to be known and accepted, especially by her fellow trainees and her family. A girl who is persistent and just wants to prove herself. Big things come in small packages, and Wren is proof.

Habits:
Wren has a habit of biting her nails when she is nervous, and so they are uneven and chipped. In fact, she will chew on anything when anxiety or fear strikes, even her clothing.

Wren also has a habit of chewing her lower lip when she is either nervous or in thought. She gets a lot of ulcers.

Wren fiddles with her hands when she is nervous, allowing her fingers to intertwine and play with one another.

Family:
Thorn Locheen - An eighteen year old girl and Wren's older sister. Thorn is quite slim with dark hair and tanned skin. She is tall and has long legs, the complete opposite of her sister. Though they share the same piercing green orbs.
Emerald Locheen - Wren's mother. In her early 40s and a fairly short woman with tanned skin and light brown hair. Her eyes are a dark brown. She is a well-built woman with a few pounds to spare, but still quite pretty and young-looking.
Titus Locheen - Wren's father. A tall man with dark brown hair and the same green eyes that both his daughter's have. He is well-built and quite muscular, a former Career but never a tribute for the games. He is a stern man with big hopes and dreams for his daughter.

Strengths:
Wren is rather quick and agile, her aim is almost impeccable and she is able to surpress feelings easily. She can also climb trees easily.

Weaknesses:
Wren's size means she is not very strong or intimidating. She cannot use large weapons such as swords, and she lets her rage blind her.

Weaponry:
Wren's preferred weapons are throwing knives or spears.

History:
Wren was born to Titus and Emerald Locheen fifteen years ago in a middle-class part of District Two, three years after her sister Thorn was born. Growing up, Wren never went hungry or without clothes as they lived in a fairly wealthy district, though they didn't live in nearly as much luxury as the Capitol people. Wren was never all that grateful and took most of her things for granted. She attended school normally from age 5 - 10

When Thorn was aged twelve and Wren was nine, Thorn was enrolled in the district's specialist academy for 'career tributes'. Thorn was tall and slim, but she was not the makings of a career. She put little effort into her training and couldn't even bear to hurt a fly. She was a gentle soul. Her father's money was wasted and he was disappointed; he wanted a son who could make their family proud, but instead he had one daughter who took no interest, and another who was far to small to make it anywhere.

Surprisingly, Wren showed interest in training at the age of ten after stopping by at the academy for a short time to watch Thorn train. As soon as her sister was pulled out of the program, Wren begged her father to let her go. Her father humored her, though he knew that they would just laugh at the tiny girl. Surprisingly, Wren was accepted into the academy and began training straight away at age ten, moving onto weapons at age twelve. She was not strong, but faster and more agile than most of the others in her class, and her aim was very good. Other girls in her class mostly ignored her or called her 'kiddo' or 'shorty' to Wren's dismay. But who needed friends?

Wren's first crush was at age thirteen, on a boy a little older than herself. Wren spotted fourteen year-old Leonis Greenlaw training one day and took an instant liking to the boy, but he just gave her funny looks. It wore off after a while, and Wren shook it off as childish thoughts as she concentrated once more on her training. It wasn't long however until Leon and Wren were on speaking terms and still remain good friends, Wren failing to ever mention her previous thoughts.

Now, at fifteen years old, Wren's pretty deadly. Her trainers agree she's ready to go into the games, but would prefer her to remain in training just a little longer. But this red-head has other ideas. It is her ambition to win the games and to bring fame and glory to her family and her district, and that is exactly what she intends to do.

[align=left][font=courier][color=black]Eyes:
Lyra's eyes are a dark brown colour, similar to her hair. Her eyes are her prominent features that seem to examine you carefully as you introduce herself to her, moving up and down and investigating you. Her eyelashes are thick and full, and her eyebrows too. She doesn't pluck them or shape them really. Lyra is mostly natural.

Hair:
At it's full potential, Lyra's hair is a voluminous chocolate brown colour that shines gold in the sun, but because of her living conditions it is often tangled and unruly. Lyra often allows her hair to stay down as tying it up gives her a headache. It reaches quite far down her back, but is often quite wavy and so she hasn't really determined it's full length.

Lips:
Lyra's lips are a similar colour to her skin. They are a pale pink colour and are chaffed due to dryness. They don't move too much, and mostly stay in the same position like Lyra's facial expression; a look of indifference.

Height & Weight:
Lyra is fairly tall and very slim. She could be described as lanky and shrimpy. Her legs are long and shapely, but her arms are very thin. She appears to be quite delicate and frail, despite being taller than most other girls. She is also bow-legged due to iron deficiency.

Skin:
Despite working in the sun all day, Lyra isn't actually that tanned. She's quite pale compared to the other citizens of District Eleven. She has to make sure she covers up when she's out on the fields, otherwise she'll burn.

Torso:
Lyra is a skinny, shrimpy girl with not much to spare. She's quite tall and lanky however, more so than most girls. Her arms and legs are skinny, and she's sort of like a pencil other than her less prominent hips.

Clothing:
There isn't much choice in clothing in district eleven, so Lyra just takes what she's going. Mostly plain tops and trousers, sometimes a nice skirt. The only formal outfit she owns is a plain blue and white dress that she only wears on reaping day.

[align=left][color=black][font=courier]The Interior

[align=center][font=courier][color=black]Personality:
Lyra appears to be quite cold and reserved to most, even her own aunt and uncle at times. She's an introvert, enjoys being alone in her own mind and dwells within her own thoughts. It's not like she has much need for anyone else; you have to take care of yourself when food and water is scarce. The only people she cares about in the least are her aunt and uncle, but she certainly wouldn't give up her life for them. No, she's too selfish. But in District Eleven, selfish is good. It means you won't starve, it means you won't guilt yourself into volunteering for some unlucky twelve year-old who shakes as they're pulled up onto the stage. No, Lyra is happy that she's selfish. She's grateful for that little voice in the back of her head that tells her to think of herself, or she would have starved to death long ago. Much better than pitying those who are even less fortunate than herself and giving them all her food.

So, don't be surprised if Lyra ignores or disregards you. She has trust issues. So alliances during the games are probably a no no for her. She's very cautious around new people and acts as if everyone is out to get her. She's under the impression that if anyone gets too close, they'll put a knife in her back and that'll be the end of her. Still, despite the odds not being in her favour, Lyra won't go down without a fight. She's not dead yet, and she intends to win this if she can. She's not going to let the Capitol mark her down as some weak-minded, frightened tribute from an outlying district. And so she won't cry when her name is called, and she will wave and play her part, and she will kill when the time comes.

Family:
'Aunty June' - Lyra's mother's siter. Aunty June is a kind woman with a tired expression. She shares the same brown hair with her niece and has green eyes.
'Uncle Milo' - A large, dark-skinned man who looks tough, but is actually a big softie. Lyra loves him dearly like she would her own father.

Strengths:
Lyra has a good aim. She's also good at climbing trees, and she can identify edible plants. She's also used to being hungry.

Weaknesses:
Lyra is not very strong. She can't use swords, aces etc. and she has trust issues.

Weaponry:
Slingshots are Lyra's specialty, but she could probably make do with a bow.

History:
Lyra was six years old when her mother was killed. Beaten to death by peacekeepers for taking crops from the fields to feed her starving child. Lyra was passed over to her closest relatives, her aunt and uncle, for the time being. Lyra was a quiet child, only speaking when spoken to. Her aunt and uncle even invested in her education so she could socialise with other children, but it wasn't much use. For two years, Lyra attended school for three hours on an early Sunday morning, when she wasn't working in the fields. She learnt how to read and write, and how to do basic math, but not much else. A lot of her education centered around agriculture, because everyone worked in this profession. By age eight, Lyra was up at five every morning, heading out into the fields until five in the afternoon where she picked crops in the ground and fruit from the trees. Almost all of their produce was shipped off to the Captiol; the bounty did not belong to them. As she got older, her hours increased, and Lyra's only break was on a Sunday when she worked from eight to four. She would not sleep in her free time, she would hunt. Safely of course. Lyra was sick of starving and decided to catch her own food. Fashioning her own slingshot, she began to shoot down birds in the trees, not realizing that the possession of weapons for citizens was illegal.

At age thirteen, she was caught trying to sell a squirrel she had shot down, but she lied and told them she threw a rock at it to kill it. She was let off because she was considered a vulnerable citizen, but Lyra knew that was a lie. She had watched an old man get beaten to death for taking some grain to make bread. She knew something was up. And her suspicions only increased further as she watched girls around her being 'used' by the peacekeepers, but they would never touch Lyra. No matter how much cheek she gave them, they would do nothing more than perhaps hit her around the face. Lyra never knew her father, but she now had her suspicions. Perhaps she was the bastard child of a peacekeeper and a mistress he took? It didn't matter, because Lyra hated her father for leaving her starving in the district with her aunt and uncle. Peacekeeper or not, he was an asshole. And so she thought no more of it.

Despite warnings from her aunt and uncle, Lyra continued 'hunting' if you could call it that, shooting down birds and such. Her aunt was reluctant at first, but soon Lyra was feeding the family on squirrels and birds. She also signed up for tessarae, though it took a lot of convincing. In return for grain, Lyra's name has been placed 36 times into the reaping just today.

*whispers* happy hunger games! :)
