Revision as of 19:55, 10 October 2010
This is a list of characters in the Hunger Games trilogy, a series of young adult science fiction novels by Suzanne Collins.
Main characters
Katniss Everdeen
Katniss is the 16-year-old main protagonist and the narrator of the story. Katniss is normally quiet in school and doesn't bother with gossip and social matters. She has the look most common in the Seam (located in Distict 12): long black hair which she wears in a braid, olive skin, and gray eyes. She lives with her mother and younger sister in the poorest district of Panem, District 12, which is in charge of mining coal for the capitol. Five years ago[1], her father was killed in a mining explosion and her mother fell into a depression. In order to get food, Katniss tried to hunt in the woods as her father taught her. One day while hunting, she meets Gale Hawthorne, a boy two years older than her who also lost his father in the same explosion. Together, they hunt and Trade to feed their families. When it comes time to draw the tributes for the 74th annual Hunger Games, Katniss takes her sister's place and competes along with the male tribute from District 12, Peeta Mellark. During the Games, Katniss and Peeta pretend they are star-crossed lovers to gain sympathy from the viewers, but it is only Katniss who was pretending. During the Games, a new rule was set up so that both tributes from a District could become winners. However, when only Peeta and Katniss are left, the rule is taken away, forcing one of them to die. At that moment, Katniss comes up with the idea for both of them to eat a poisonous berry called nightlock and die so the Hunger Games have no winner. At that moment, the Games end and both Katniss and Peeta are the winners which humiliates the Capitol. Because of this, Katniss becomes a symbol of rebellion for the Districts. Collins has said that Katniss "is a futuristic Theseus."[2]
Peeta Mellark
The 16-year-old male tribute from District 12. He is described as being "medium height with a stocky build"[3] and has "ashy blond hair that falls in waves over his forehead" with blue eyes. He is the town baker's son and is talented in baking breads, cakes and icing cakes, which proves to be an unexpected boon to him in the arena. Upon arriving in the Capitol, it is discovered that Peeta has an instinctive ability to perform on camera and manipulate public sentiment. He has harbored a secret liking for Katniss since they were five that continues through the Games. He is rarely moody or upset and generally takes things lightly. Peeta saved Katniss's life when she was 11 years old by giving her bread when her family was starving, but the two never talked until the Games. At the end of Catching Fire, Peeta is captured by the Capitol. Then in Mockingjay he is tortured to "break" Katniss from her love for him. Soon he and others are saved but his memories from trackerjacker venom are upseting and he tries to kill Katniss out of his confusion. Afterwards on the Star Squad with the others he asks to be killed, aware of the burden he bares on them. Katniss doesn't and kisses him. When the Squad split up to the mansion, Peeta survives and soon returns to District 12 with Katniss, helping her with nightmares, her grief for Prim and her loneliness. After 15 years they are married and after Peeta pleading for kids they have a daughter and son—the girl with Katniss's hair and Peeta's eyes, the boy with Peeta's curls and Katniss's eyes.
Haymitch Abernathy
A "paunchy, middle-aged man" who was the victor of the 50th Hunger Games. Since winning made him independently wealthy, he has spent almost all of his intervening leisure intoxicated to the point of embarrassment. Being the only surviving Hunger Games champion from District 12 (there were only two, so far), Haymitch acts as a mentor for Peeta and Katniss before they enter the Games, as he has for every couple in the twenty-five years since his own victory. He is often sarcastic and anything but sober, which Katniss finds highly irritating. However, when pushed, he emerges as the pair's greatest advocate and shows himself to be highly canny as he guides his protégés in a cleverly designed, highly unorthodox strategy aimed at securing the survival of both tributes.
Although she disliked him greatly at first due to his drinking and his harshness, Katniss later realized that the reason behind this was that he was tired of seeing children placed under his care for the Games dying. After this she starts to develop a true affection and respect for him.
Haymitch was a participant in the last Quarter Quell, when four tributes from each district were sent into the arena. He became an ally to Maysilee Donner, Madge's Aunt, but watched her die and was unable to help her (much like Katniss was unable to save Rue, except that Maysilee broke off the partnership shorty before her death, while Rue didn't). During the games he had also found his way past a wall of shrubbery and to the edge of the arena, where a forcefield that flung whatever was tossed at it back blocked the participants from exit. When the games came down to him and another tribute, the girl threw her weapon at him at this edge, leaving the two of them without weapons. However the forcefield sent the weapon back at her, killing her, leaving Haymitch the Victor. Within two weeks of his Hunger Games, Haymitch's mother, younger brother, and girlfriend were killed by President Snow as punishment for Haymitch's actions with the force field.
Gale Hawthorne
An 18-year-old who is Katniss's best friend and hunting partner. Like Katniss, he has black hair, olive skin, and gray eyes. His father died in the same explosion that killed Katniss's father. The pair have combined their respective talents, his at trapping and hers at archery, to become a highly effective team. Their success makes them fixtures at District 12's black market, the Hob, where they trade their illegal game for other valuable items. Gale has three siblings: Rory, Vick and Posy. Gale is less resigned than Katniss to the authority of the Capitol and even suggests half-seriously that the two flee to escape selection for the Hunger Games. Gale is in love with and fiercely devoted to Katniss, although she doesn't know it at the time. During the tightened security in the second book, Gale is caught with a turkey he shot in the woods. Though he claims he found it in the district, he is whipped severely, but Katniss's mother heals him. He returns at the end of Catching Fire to tell Katniss that District 12 was destroyed, but he managed to evacuate about 10% of the population[4]. Gale lives in District 13 in Mockingjay and spends most of his time working with Beetee to create bombs that are detonated using human instinct, one of which is implied to have killed Prim. He also is in Katniss' "Star Squad" on their mission to assassinate Snow. At the end of Mockingjay, he has found a job in District 2, a fact for which Katniss says she is relieved.
Primrose Everdeen
Katniss' younger sister whom others call "Prim". Prim's face is "as fresh as a raindrop, as lovely as the primrose for which she was named." She, like her mother, has light hair and blue eyes, which sets her out of place in the Seam. She is twelve years old during The Hunger Games and is nearly fourteen in Mockingjay, and has her name put in the reaping for the first time at the 74th Hunger Games. Prim is thoughtful, sweet, and somewhat delicate in spite of all she has been put through at a young age. During Catching Fire and Mockingjay, Katniss sees a change in her personality, as she has become more solemn and mature. She is originally chosen as the District 12 female tribute, but Katniss volunteers for her instead. Katniss says that Prim is "the only person I'm certain I love". She is killed at the end of Mockingjay when she attempts to save children in the Capitol as part of a medical team on the front lines, something she was far too young to be a part of.
President Coriolanus Snow
The main antagonist of the series, President Snow is the ruler of the Capitol and all of Panem. He initially appears in The Hunger Games when he crowns Katniss and Peeta as victors, but he doesn't speak to Katniss face-to-face until Catching Fire, where he tells her that he is angry that both she and Peeta lived which started a rebellion in several of the districts and demands that she prove she was just madly in love during the Victory Tour.[5] Supposedly they fail his expectation. President Snow is described as having very puffy lips which was most likely from an appearance altering operation that is very popular in the Capitol. Katniss describes him as having a smell of blood. In Mockingjay, we find the smell is from drinking poison over the years so people would not suspect him for murdering people. He also has a permanent smell of genetically altered roses which makes Katniss gag. He is said to have sold winning tributes' bodies, or to kill whoever they hold close if the tributes refuse. He is killed at the end of Mockingjay. Despite his ruthlessness and his willingness to kill even innocent children, Snow was a man of his word and told Katniss the truth just as they had agreed.
Tributes
District 1
In the 74th Hunger Games
- Marvel—The male tribute from District 1. His name is unknown until the Victory Tour in the second book; throughout The Hunger Games he is simply known as "the boy from District 1". He killed Rue by throwing a spear into her abdomen/stomach area, and Katniss shoots an arrow through his neck in retaliation.
- Glimmer—The female tribute from District 1. As a Career, she teams up with Cato, Clove, and the tributes from districts 1 and 4. She is described as very beautiful, tall with long blond hair and green eyes. She dies, along with the girl from District 4, when Katniss drops a tracker jacker nest on the Careers.
In the 75th Hunger Games
- Cashmere—The female tribute from District 1. Sister of Gloss. She and her brother won back-to-back Games, fairly recently because Katniss remembers watching them. Described as being classically beautiful, with long blond curls. Johanna kills her with her ax when she, Gloss, Brutus and Enobaria attacked Katniss and Peeta's group at the Cornucopia.
- Gloss—The male tribute from District 1. He kills Wiress by slitting her throat. Katniss retaliates with an arrow to his head.
District 2
In the 74th Hunger Games
- Cato—The male tribute from District 2. Katniss considers Cato to be her and Peeta's most fearsome opponent because he is very large and strong, has skill with many weapons, and takes a savage pleasure in killing. Like most Careers, Cato had complete confidence in his abilities and expected that he would be the victor. He was the last tribute to die. During the finale of the Games, he was pushed off the Cornucopia to the wolf muttations—fearsome creatures made in the Capitol—who prolonged his death to the point that, when Katniss finally shot him, he was nothing more than a gnawed and bloody hunk of meat.
- Clove—The female tribute from District 2. She is arrogant, strong and can use many weapons—especially knives, which she is described as being especially skilled with. Like Cato, she enjoys killing— when she captured Katniss at the Feast, she planned on giving her the most torturous death possible. Before she could begin, however, Thresh caught her and dented her skull with a rock causing her to die.
In the 75th Hunger Games
- Brutus—The male tribute from District 2. He was killed by Peeta after killing Chaff.
- Enobaria—The female tribute from District 2. She is famous for ripping someone's throat out with her teeth in her original Games. She is part of the Career pack in the arena, along with Brutus, Cashmere, and Gloss. She's one of the six survivors of the 75th Games, and was taken to the Capitol along with Peeta and Johanna. She is part of the committee at the end of Mockingjay that votes to hold a final Hunger Games, with the Capitol's children instead of the Districts' children.
District 3
In the 74th Hunger Games
- The girl in District 3 was not named. She is the first shown to be dead, killed in the initial bloodbath at the Cornucopia.
- The boy from District 3(also a Career) was able to rearrange and reactivate the land mines at the start of the game to protect the food the Careers had gathered, but he was foiled by Foxface. Katniss managed to blow up the food, and Cato killed the boy for it by snapping his neck.
In the 75th Hunger Games
- Beetee—The male tribute from District 3. He is an inventor, and is proficient in using wire as a weapon, usually in combination with electricity. In the third book he is seen as one of the scientists who works in District 13, and helps Gale develop bombs. He is part of the committee that gathers at the end of the book that votes to hold a final Hunger Games.
- Wiress—The female tribute from District 3. Wiress often doesn't finish her sentences; Beetee sometimes finishes them for her. Although she's an inventor like Beetee, her genius manifests itself in different ways—she's very intuitive and figured out that the arena worked like a clock before anyone else did. She was killed when Gloss from District 1 slit her throat.
District 4
In the 74th Hunger Games
- The boy tribute was unnamed and killed in the bloodbath at the Cornucopia.
- The girl tribute was part of the Career Pack and was killed by Katniss and tracker jackers.
In the 75th Hunger Games
- Finnick Odair—The male tribute from District 4. He won a previous Hunger Games by using a trident against other tributes; District 4's trade is fishing. Finnick is described as being very handsome, tall, with tan skin, bronze hair, and stunning sea-green eyes. A jabberjay recording of his girlfriend, Annie, tortures him in the Games. Katniss was hesitant to make Finnick her ally, but he proved to be valuable. He helps the rebellion by telling stories of secrets he learned while being forced into prostitution by President Snow. He is reuinited with Annie in Mockingjay and they marry. Finnick is decapitated by four-limbed human-sized lizards mutts that smell like roses from the Capitol during the attempt to execute President Snow. Annie later has his son.
- Mags—The female tribute from District 4. She is around 80 years old and volunteered to take the place of a young woman, Annie, to spare her. Mags is one of the first people Katniss wants for an ally, along with Beetee and Wiress. Katniss observed that she can make a fishing hook out of anything. Unfortunately, while the group are trying to escape poison fog, Mags gives herself up without a question so Finnick can carry wounded Peeta to safety. Katniss is confused by this, as it is not until the end of the book that she learns of certain tributes' task to keep her and Peeta alive.
Others
- Annie-Competed in a Hunger Games Katniss can remember. In it, she went insane after seeing the other tribute from 4 decapitated, ran away, and won because the arena was flooded. She seems never to have fully recovered. She was chosen at the reaping for the Quarter Quell, but replaced by Mags. Her voice, changed to sound like a scream, was used to torment Finnick in the arena. She gave birth to Finnick's baby after he died, and voted no on another Hunger Games.
District 5
In the 74th Hunger Games
- The boy in District Five is not named. He is killed the first day at the Cornucopia.
- Foxface—The female tribute from District Five. The nickname "Foxface" was given to her by Katniss after seeing her on the TV when they announced the contestants of the Hunger Games, describing her as, "A girl that looks like a fox." Katniss shares this nickname to only Rue and Peeta. Foxface's real name is never revealed. Foxface is the second to last tribute to die, after Thresh's death, but before Cato's. Clever and evasive, she uses ingenious strategies, such as hiding in the Cornucopia at the feast, to avoid capture and survive. She avoids contact with other tributes, but relies on them for food; she steals just enough food to survive, but not enough to arouse suspicion. She dies after taking and eating poisonous berries that Peeta has gathered, which he mistakenly believed not to be poisonous and which he had intended to eat himself. She is unusual in that she, despite coming fourth, is thought to have made no kills, probably as part of her strategy.
District 6
In the 74th Hunger Games
- Both the boy and girl tributes were unnamed and killed in the bloodbath at the Cornucopia.
In the 75th Hunger Games
- Unnamed Characters—The female tribute from District 6. She sacrificed her life to save Peeta against the monkey muttations. It was later revealed that she was part of the alliance protecting Katniss and Peeta. She and her tribute partner were both known as "the morphlings" for their obvious addictions to morphling.
District 7
In the 74th Hunger Games
- The boy from District Seven was not named. He was killed the first day, probably at the Cornucopia.
- The girl from District Seven was not named. She was killed the first day, probably at the Cornucopia.
In the 75th Hunger Games
- Johanna Mason—The female tribute from District 7. She won an earlier Hunger Games by pretending she was a weakling. Katniss remembers watching these Games herself; Johanna is fairly young. Johanna was captured by the capitol at the end of Catching Fire. In the third book, she is rescued along with Peeta and Annie and brought to District 13, where she fights with rebel forces and improves her friendship with Katniss. She is part of the committee that votes to hold one last Hunger Games.
- Blight—The male tribute from District 7. He was killed when he ran into the force field while he, Johanna, Beetee and Wiress are trying to escape from the blood-rain section of what is later revealed to be the clock.
District 8
In the 74th Hunger Games
- The boy from District Eight was not named. He was killed the first day, probably at the Cornucopia.
- The girl from District Eight was also not named. She was killed the first night in the woods near Katniss. The fire she started attracts the attention of the Careers and Peeta, who attack her. She does not die right away, forcing Peeta to go back and kill her.
In the 75th Hunger Games
- Cecelia—The female tribute from District 8. In Catching Fire, it was mentioned that she has three kids that she left in her district before the Hunger Games. She is killed in the blood bath at the cornucopia on the first day.
- Woof—The male tribute from District 8. He too is killed on the first day.
District 9
In the 74th Hunger Games
- The boy tribute from District Nine is unnamed. He is killed the first day by Clove throwing a knife in his back at the Cornucopia while he is fighting with Katniss over a backpack.
- The girl tribute from District Nine is unnamed. She is killed the first day, probably at the Cornucopia.
District 10
In the 74th Hunger Games
- The boy tribute is unnamed. He is described as having a crippled foot.
- The girl tribute is unnamed. She is killed the first day, probably at the Cornucopia.
District 11
In the 74th Hunger Games
- Thresh—The male tribute from District 11, who has the same dark brown skin as Rue but is not very similar in appearance, because he is so much bigger than her. He's very strong and physically well built, possessing immense strength. Thresh is quiet and solitary, and denied invitations from the careers to join them. He kills Clove by smashing her skull with a rock as she was about to kill Katniss. He lets Katniss live because she sang to Rue as she died and buried her in flowers. Thresh is killed by Cato, but the details are unknown.
- Rue—The female tribute from District 11. She formed an alliance with Katniss. She is 12 years old, with dark brown hair and golden brown eyes. Besides this, she was similar in appearance and size to Katniss's sister Prim, which played a major factor in Katniss deciding to team up with her. She was the eldest of six children and worked in the orchards for her district, whose job was to grow agriculture for the Capitol and other districts. Her love of music inspired her to teach Katniss a simple 4-note melody which she used to signal quitting time in the orchards back home. While she and Katniss were trying to destroy the Careers' food, she was speared by Marvel. Katniss sang to her before she died, and covered her with flowers.
In the 75th Hunger Games
- Seeder—The female tribute from District 11. She is desribed as being around sixty, and is shown to be warm and friendly, as she hugs Katniss at the training center. She is killed at the cornucopia on the first day.
- Chaff—The male tribute from District 11. He is known to be one of Haymitch's closest friends. He is killed by Brutus, but the details are unknown.
Minor characters
In District 12
- Madge Undersee—The mayor's daughter and Katniss's friend. She and Katniss were always thrown together at school, being the non-gossipy girls. Madge is the one who gives Katniss her mockingjay pin,[6] which becomes a symbol of rebellion and is featured on every book cover. Katniss and Madge spend more time together during the months after the Games. Katniss was at her house when she first heard of the uprisings. She and her family are killed when District 12 is bombed.
- Darius—A Peacekeeper in District 12. He is turned into an Avox after he interfered with Gale's whipping, and serves Katniss as an Avox in before the 75th Hunger Games. He is tortured to death in front of Peeta.
- Delly Cartwright—A girl from District 12 who Katniss is familiar with. She is Peeta's best friend and they have both shared many childhood memories together including making 'dough girls and boys' with the dough from Peeta's father's bakery. She is one of the refugees in District 13.
- Mrs.Everdeen - Katniss's mother. She went into a deep depression when her husband, Katniss's father, died in a mining accident. She eventually recovers enough to set up an apothecary in District 12. In Mockingjay she is seen working in the hospital in District 13, and following Prim's death at the end of the book, does not return to District 12 like Katniss. Instead, she stays in District 4, working in a hospital and coping with her grief. She and Katniss maintain contact through telephone calls.
In the Capitol
- Effie Trinket—Effie works as an escort for District 12, particularly to Katniss and Peeta. From drawing the tributes at the reaping to escorting them to the Capitol, Effie Trinket does it all. At first, she detests her job, doing her best to be promoted to a better, richer district. But as time goes by, Effie gets attached to her District 12 acquaintances. Effie has bright pink hair, speculated to be a wig. As she gives speeches, she constantly has to get it under control. She can be a bit of an airhead at times, totally oblivious to the sorrows and misfortunes that fall upon District 12. She's very strict about manners and is incessantly punctual.
- Cinna—Katniss' stylist, responsible for her public appearance. After designing the spectacular outfits of the opening ceremony, which included igniting Katniss and Peeta's costumes with synthetic fire, he calls Katniss "The Girl On Fire". Cinna is in his first year as a stylist for the Games and his audacious designs immediately win over the audience for Katniss and Peeta. Despite (or perhaps because of) his professional interest in images, Cinna proves to be better than most at seeing through the superficial spectacle of the Games to their barbaric core, "using [her] outfits as a vehicle to express potentially dangerous ideas".[7] He and Katniss establish an easy, comfortable relationship and he demonstrates a genuine concern for her well-being. In Catching Fire, Cinna dresses her for her interview in her wedding dress as was insisted by President Snow, only he added a few changes which are later revealed to be components that allowed it to change to resemble a mockingjay when Katniss twirled. Because of this, Cinna is savagely beaten in front of Katniss, right before she enters the arena for the Quarter Quell. He is executed after the arena explodes. Cinna is very different from the other inhabitants of the Capitol; he doesn't use surgery to alter his features, wears simple black clothes and leaves his hair its natural dark brown color. His only evidenced feature is a slight touch of gold eyeliner that brought out the color of his eyes.
- Octavia, Venia, and Flavius—Katniss's prep team. They are residents of the Capitol and sport they usual alternating of appearances, including orange hair, green skin, and strange tattoos. Katniss assumes that they are very dull witted, and care only for their appearance. They prove her a bit more respectable when they begin to cry for her, but at request of herself and Cinna, leave the room if they feel the need to be emotional. This shows that deep down they care about her, possibly more than the entertainment of the games. Katniss also learns valuable information from them by listening to their gossip and guessing which districts rebelled. In Mockingjay, they are punished for stealing bread from District 13. Katniss orders them set free and healed. Venia is said to have always been the strongest; for example, in Catching Fire, Venia is the only one to contain her emotions while working on Katniss. Octavia and Flavius both needed to leave on account of being too emotional. In Mockingjay, the trio were beaten and chained in District 13, but Katniss demanded they be let go and they resume their role as her prep team.
- Avox girl (Lavinia)—A servant girl whose tongue was cut off for being a traitor. She has red hair, porcelain skin and striking features. Because of her inability to speak, Katniss does not know her name or anything about her. Katniss recognized her from when she and Gale witnessed the girl's capture and the death of her friend, and Katniss later speculates that she is a runaway from the Capitol. In Mockingjay Katniss learns that her name is Lavinia and she was tortured to death by the Capitol.
- Seneca Crane—The Head Gamemaker during the 74th Hunger Games. He was executed because he let both Katniss and Peeta live. During her chance to impress the Gamemakers in the second book, Katniss hangs a dummy and labels him as "Seneca Crane".
- Plutarch Heavensbee—In the 74th Hunger Games he is the judge that falls into the punch bowl when Katniss spears the apple in the pig's mouth.In Catching Fire, he is the new Head Gamemaker. He is later shown to be the leader of the rebellion movement in the districts, and created the plan to break the tributes out of the arena in Catching Fire. Katniss notices that he doesn't really take credit for any small victory, commenting that he would make his final bow when the rebellion was over.
- Caesar Flickerman—A popular Capitol reporter who is famous for conducting interviews for the Hunger Games for more than forty years. Described as wearing a "ceremonial suit, midnight blue dotted with a thousand tiny electric bulbs", having a heavily powdered face and blue hair, he is quite freakish in his appearance. He is easy-going with most, if not all people, and is excellent at making the tributes "shine". In Mockingjay, he is also the one who interviews Peeta during his pro-Capitol propos.
In District 13
- Alma Coin—The president of District 13. Described as having "gray hair that falls in an unbroken sheet to her shoulders" that's "so uniform, so without a flaw, a wisp, even a split end." She runs 13 similarly, with no flaws or imperfections. Though she and Katniss are on the same side, Katniss hates her because of her ruthlessness and her hunger for power. Despite her affiliation with the rebellion, she is even more ruthless than Snow since she, unlike him, is willing to break her word. Her desire for power is such that she killed Capitol children, including her own medics with Prim Everdeen amongest them, to undermine President Snow. He revealed the truth to Katniss who, after having remembered that she and Snow had agreed not to lie to each other, killed Coin for her selfish crimes.
- Boggs—is first introduced as one of Coin's "lackeys", or her personal guards. At first Katniss writes him off as someone she wouldn't like because of her dislike towards Coin. However, he is shown to be quite witty and nice, and Katniss starts to like him. He serves as Katniss's bodyguard for half of Book 3 and is assigned to Team 451 along with Katniss, Gale, and Finnick. He dies when he accidentally steps on a land mine in a Capitol street which the Holo did not find.
