NAME: Caerin Zivale (pronounced K - rin)

GENDER: Female. She/Her.

AGE (12-18): 17

SKILLS: She can whistle very well, she's gone fishing quite a few times, she's gotten good at braiding hair in complicated ways from the time before she cut it short, and she was apprenticed in medicinal practices.

BACKGROUND: Her uncle raised Caerin and her half-brother, Ayon, who is nine years younger than her. They share a father. Caerin's father (her uncle's brother) is often traveling the seas, and he didn't want to bring his two children with him and his crew on his own ship, otherwise they wouldn't receive proper education and, of course, he believed the risk of spores was too dangerous for them. As for Caerin's mother, she has been in prison for seven years, and Ayon's mother died in the civil war. Their father was there when Ayon's mother was killed. Their father's brother was more than willing to raise the two kids, and he has done so since Caerin was ten and Ayon was an infant. The first ten years of Caerin's childhood was spent with her mother, who taught her pottery on the Zephyr Islands (or other equivalent? I see we aren't on Lumar). She has since forgotten it. Her mother was imprisoned after the Civil War. Caerin's uncle located her after her mother was imprisoned, and united her with the baby, Ayon. They have spent the last seven years with their uncle, who has tried to teach them--specifically, Caerin, a child of the revolution--the art of nonviolence and passivity. It isn't going well. Caerin has been trained in medicine simply because her uncle was, and he had nothing better to teach her. They get along fine, but Caerin often wonders if, or wishes that, she has better places to be. Watching the Civil War tear her life apart has changed her view of permanence, and she's learned to avoid hurt by never letting others see her vulnerabilities, and never letting connections or companions get too close. She's made a few more enemies than friends, but has a few good ones out there. All her strength comes from fights or disputes with others and wrestling her uncle's large dogs off of her young brother. She believes her mother is wrongfully in prison, and will never forget the Civil War, even as her uncle continues to try to teach her how to regulate herself. Despite all this, what traumatizes her most of her childhood was that moment when she tried to impress someone by striking a match with one hand, but failed and instead dropped the matchbox on the ground, with all the matches spilling out. Other than that, she has appreciated what she has to call home and who she has to call family. She does not appreciate the dogs for constantly attacking Ayon. 

WORST FEAR: Crying in front of someone else.

FAVORITE COLOR: Dark Green.

OTHER: She's not very good at dancing. She likes seagulls. She is intrigued by deadrunners. She's skeptical of lunar worship. (/idk how much of this works bc we're not on Lunar so you can just ignore it)

NAME: Avaih

GENDER: Female

AGE (12-18): 17

SKILLS: Slightly experienced with spores, although primarily for mundane uses - how sunlight spores are used for cooking for instance, and she grew verdant spores a few times. Is good at math (ik reallll helpful here!) and carving wood. She is also very quiet.

BACKGROUND: Lived in the Sapphire sea equivalent up until the Civil War, when her family had to flee from their home to try to stay safe. Her mother died in the war. Avaih, her father, and her younger sister ended up in the Verdant Sea, and she hasn't been back to the Sapphire Sea since. Until she was Reaped, she worked as an accountant. She is very quiet, and has been since the Civil War, only talking if its important / necessary to speak to someone or to her sister.

WORST FEAR: Disappointing those she cares about

FAVORITE COLOR: The same shade of blue as zephyr spores (bc Sapphire Sea)

You rise from a tube in the middle of a wasteland. Around you are many others. Together, you all form a circle.

At the center of the circle is a pile of supplies, though from here you cannot tell specifics.

BACKGROUND: Her uncle raised Caerin and her half-brother, Ayon, who is nine years younger than her. They share a father. Caerin's father (her uncle's brother) is often traveling the seas, and he didn't want to bring his two children with him and his crew on his own ship, otherwise they wouldn't receive proper education and, of course, he believed the risk of spores was too dangerous for them. As for Caerin's mother, she has been in prison for seven years, and Ayon's mother died in the civil war. Their father was there when Ayon's mother was killed. Their father's brother was more than willing to raise the two kids, and he has done so since Caerin was ten and Ayon was an infant. The first ten years of Caerin's childhood was spent with her mother, who taught her pottery on the Zephyr Islands (or other equivalent? I see we aren't on Lumar). She has since forgotten it. Her mother was imprisoned after the Civil War. Caerin's uncle located her after her mother was imprisoned, and united her with the baby, Ayon. They have spent the last seven years with their uncle, who has tried to teach them--specifically, Caerin, a child of the revolution--the art of nonviolence and passivity. It isn't going well. Caerin has been trained in medicine simply because her uncle was, and he had nothing better to teach her. They get along fine, but Caerin often wonders if, or wishes that, she has better places to be. Watching the Civil War tear her life apart has changed her view of permanence, and she's learned to avoid hurt by never letting others see her vulnerabilities, and never letting connections or companions get too close. She's made a few more enemies than friends, but has a few good ones out there. All her strength comes from fights or disputes with others and wrestling her uncle's large dogs off of her young brother. She believes her mother is wrongfully in prison, and will never forget the Civil War, even as her uncle continues to try to teach her how to regulate herself. Despite all this, what traumatizes her most of her childhood was that moment when she tried to impress someone by striking a match with one hand, but failed and instead dropped the matchbox on the ground, with all the matches spilling out. Other than that, she has appreciated what she has to call home and who she has to call family. She does not appreciate the dogs for constantly attacking Ayon. 

WORST FEAR: Crying in front of someone else.

FAVORITE COLOR: Dark Green.

OTHER: She's not very good at dancing. She likes seagulls. She is intrigued by deadrunners. She's skeptical of lunar worship. (/idk how much of this works bc we're not on Lunar so you can just ignore it)

You rise from a tube in the middle of a wasteland. Around you are many others. Together, you all form a circle.

At the center of the circle is a pile of supplies, though from here you cannot tell specifics.

A loud sound rang through the arena, followed by a booming voice. “LET THE QUELL BEGIN."

Alice sprints towards the pile of supplies. They know they need to prepare- otherwise she's dead.

Tom (who isn't listed as my character, or at all (despite being the first character on the sign-ups), for some reason) rushes towards the supplies in the middle. If he can even get anything, he would be better off than not.

Since you used “a few” both times, I’m going to equate that to 3 each, total of six pouches, backpack, sword, and dagger. Your ranged weapon is a bow, and you have a quiver with 20 arrows

The combined weight was very heavy. While he was able to run, it was nowhere near as quickly as he had approached.

She found a hammer. The boy who had run through had grabbed several bags, so there were not many left. There were about eight more sling bags strewn about, and a smaller backpack near the center.

Total, the slings contained six small water bottles (made of metal, about the size of an irl plastic water bottle), six loaves of bread, eighteen apples, and eighteen potatoes. There was also a total of 3 vials of crimson spores, 3 vials of verdant spores, and 1 vial with rosetite spores. The large backpack, and each of the slings, was filled to the brim, and for now materials could not be moved between them.

The hiking backpack contained a sleeping bag, a tarp, some rope, night vision goggles, 4 apples, and three vials of every spore minus midnight.

NAME: Eventuri Elnatana

GENDER: Male

AGE (12-18): 18

SKILLS: Philosophy and morality (Though his personal philosophy is kind of odd...)

BACKGROUND: He was working as a writer for some big company, publishing works that explained different types of philosophies, though every time he had to add addendums that listed which of them were 'Capitol approved.' 

WORST FEAR: To be proven a hypocrite in his philosophies or principles

FAVORITE COLOR: White- Because it represents, to him, a blank sheet of paper waiting to be filled.

OTHER: He was skilled enough at his poetic writing that he was hired at 16, meaning he's very much lacking education in any field except for his writing/morality. During the rebellion, when he'd have been (I think) 11, he and his family were imprisoned, due to his father taking care of refugees who had sought an escape from the fighting. Apparently, they had been criminals of war, and even being associated with them was enough to send him to prison. His parents died in the prison, fighting off guards while he and his sister managed to escape.

He learned some basic survival skills during this time. If he hadn't, he'd already be dead.
