ok im wanting to da a hunger games style roleplay. basically post apocalypse america is divided into 12 districts ruled by the capital. the districts rebelled against the capital but were defeated and put back into there places. they destroyed the 13th district to make an example out of them. they then set up basically a humility of rememberance of their rebellion for the districts. every year 2 random names are picked from ages 12-18. they are sent to the capital and put into training arenas and other things. they then put them into the arena where the rise up on the silver plates into the arena with a giant golden cornocopia in the middle of all the competitirs full of weapons and supplies. the arena is huge and designed like the woods. the hunger games is shown on live television. make sure you create a bio for your character here.

Dragunov

age: 18 sex: male. skills: knife sword herbs healing and the ability to tell poisonous plants from non poisonous ones. appearance: 165 pounds. fast on his feet. deadly. name: Rellik. bio: from a family who has trained me all my life for the hunger games but always resented them for it.  district: 7

Aadreal

Age: 16
Sex: Female
Skills: Dirty fighting, improvised weapons, handguns, small blades, agile, fearless
Appearance: Small framed girl that appears younger than she really is.  Mousy brown hair and a smattering of freckles give her an innocent appearance.  One so contradictory to reality.
Name: Nala
Bio: Nala lost her family at an early age and learned to survive on the streets.  Loyal to no one but herself she's usually nothing more than a memory by the time anyone notices her.
District: 12

selfexiled

Name: Marcus Detonne
Age: 18
Gender: male
District: 10
Appearance: Strong blue/green eyes with a golden ring around the pupil, short cut brown hair with hints of red, very thin goatee with chin straps reaching up and touching his sideburns. Tanned skin, athletic but slender, roughly 150-170lbs. Often found wearing old fatigues and combat boots.

Skills: Talented fist fighter with a knack for sticks and blades, excels at long shots favoring a high powered rifle at range and a pistol and machette sized knife up close. Is world wise and recognises most plants and thier uses.

History: One of the few children smuggled out before the destruction of District 13 Marcus has always been an outsider. Moving from district to district those that were taking care of him were mugged and killed leaving him alone. He has always had to fight for his place as long as he can remember, then an old man came across him during one of his fights and decided to take him in. This man was a soldier at one time and poured all the knowledge he could into Marcus. Marcus thinks of him as a father and will defend him at all costs but holds everyone else in little regard considering them all just pawns or things to get in his way.

I'm showing interest but am very curious as to how you will run the game dragonuv.

Where will you be starting this rpg from?
In the actual arena when the game begins or when they're arriving by train to begin their training?

It's probably best for people to know the history of the game  -- > http://thehungergames.wikia.com/wiki/The_Hunger_Games
this helps if you haven't read the books selfexiled ;)

Will you be dropping packs and dictating what is in them?
How will you move the start of the game itself when the tributes are supposed to make a break for the cornocopia, again will you decide what is in the packs caught?
Otherwise every one will grab a pack of specialised weapons and necessary food  ::)

Will you be moving the cameras around to watch them all and npc'ing their mentors and stylists and the viewers?
How will you decide if a district has sent something to help their 'tribute' or if sponsors have begun to favour one of the contestants?

Sorry for all the questions but I have a ton of games so before I go to the trouble of making my characters bio, I just need to know how the rpg will be run ;)

the roleplay is already in the non adult roleplays. it is at the beginning of the arena as soon as the game starts and the mines below the silver discs are disabled.
