Elimination credited to Samil Golding and Bridget Harding
Elimination credited to Samil Golding and Bridget Harding
Strengths: charismatic, talented with a spear, a gifted liar, motivated to redeem a family broken by her father's treachery
Weaknesses: volatile, perplexed by sincerity, in the shadow of an infamous mentor, short of stature at (charitably) only 5'
What happens if she wins: Sequin kills me, Sequin kills Corsage. Not exactly a unifying victor. Probably a bad idea, not that it's any of my business. Doesn't seem likely, though. Annia's set on...

Elimination credited to Cora Davis

Strengths: physically intimidating, unshakably convinced of his sense of justice, a talented knife-fighter, highly intelligent
Weaknesses: rigid moral code, struggles to adapt to disorder, predisposed to hold grudges, surprisingly immature
What happens if he wins: We all get together and pat each other on the back, for a moment, before all hell breaks loose. The Games are rigged, Annia rigged them, we pin sponsor gift manipulation on Lorca, along with the Enobaria Tapes... and then I finally sleep through the goddamn night.

Elimination credited to Cora Davis, Bridget Harding, and Yuna Watanabe

Strengths: brilliant swordsman and archer, social chameleon, talented actor and liar, deeply devoted to his family
Weaknesses: fragile sense of self, proud, easily manipulated and otherwise led, inexperienced with lack of order or certainty
What happens if he wins: Claudia buys me a drink and maybe owes me a favor, or would if I could get her to sit down and talk with me. Rude! We do a rush job and blame Annia and Lorca anyway, somehow. His reintroduction ceremony is sappier than a white pine in a lumber mill.

Elimination credited to Manari Issa
Strengths: charismatic, highly intelligent and adaptable, quick learner, more than passable knifework skills, creative builder
Weaknesses: difficulty trusting within alliances, slight/small of stature, prone to recklessness, inexperienced with violence
What happens if she wins: Lorca looks like a dumbass, we expose the racket in District 3's nominations process and blame Annia for it, same accusations of sponsor manipulation, jail, victory, I take a fucking nap for once, etc. Same old story, different figurehead.

Strengths: brilliant chemist, projected top marks on PCA, determined to survive, creative poisoner, unafraid of doing harm
Weaknesses: physically inept, profound superiority complex, difficult to like, unused to failing, willing to risk her allies
What happens if she wins: District 6 is appeased, no one else is. Could we leverage the unrest against Annia? Probably, especially if we can somehow - ooh, the poison implications - blame Lorca, blame... I don't like playing it this fast and loose with accusations, but something might stick.
Fidan Said, District 7

Strengths: pleasant, agile, a talented climber and otherwise physically capable, sense of purpose, broad knowledge of plants
Weaknesses: weak stomach for violence, no desire to do harm, unskilled with weapons, naive, easily panicked
What happens if she wins: I win two thousand credits in my graduating class' betting pool, Panem releases a collective 'aw'. We'd probably have to kill her to get anyone outraged about anything for a good long while.
