NOTES things did not go as planned when mockingjay was born, which is telling by her eccentric name. her mother, as is common in the poor 11th district, was not in full health when giving birth. thankfully, the little girl was born safely, screaming gratingly. "she sounds like a mockingjay...." her mother had groaned, before passing out, weakened. and so she was named. little did her parents know, this was most likely the spark that began their daughter's life as a bird enthusiast. Not just a watcher. because jay is never content to just watch. although her parents worked in the orchards and expected her to do the same, again, things didn't work out how they expected. jayjay never had an interest in the simple picking of fruits, and much prefered going out on her own to interact with the birds, catching them in her traps and studying them and their interactions. the peacekeepers, of course, were not pleased. she wasn't productive, and this would have to be fixed. unfortunately for them, however, even public whippings could not keep this girl away for long. and even though her back, even at such a young age, was absolutely covered in scars, she kept going back. finally, the peacekeepers decided to meet her on middle ground, since it was clear the girl was not going to stop and honestly, whiping a young girl so many times was bad for the unstable peace of the poor district. so she was finally allowed to be with her birds- in exchange for her innovations in keeping away the birds from the farms without using the expensive upper district technology. which is where she is now. mockingjay's life is her birds. she is constantly found up in the trees with them, of out in the fields. similar to many of the other districters, she's just as comfortable up in the trees as she is on the ground. unfortunately, when she's on her hunt, she tends to become very single minded- and will often make stupid decisions, or not pay attention to where she's going...which will often lead to some more wounds ontop of her many scars. thanks to the pain she had been through when she was younger, she has a high pain tolerance- however, she can't get rid of her strong fear of whips... of course, how could she live around the birds with out having a few to call her own? mockingjay has adopted two, ironically, mockingjays, which she had raised from chicks when they were abandoned by their mother. named cosima and popo, the two had never been able to get along. and so it became that cosima became mockingjay's messenger bird, and popo her helper. popo seems to consider himself his owner's 'protector'. he's a paranoid bird, and will often glare at those he doesn't consider 'safe' and will sometimes even attack. however, once mockingjay assures him of her safety, the bird becomes just as silly as her, always wanting attention. although she loves her birds, it doesn't stop mockingjay's love for meat. since she does live in the poor 11 district, such meat is hard to obtain, but when she does, she can't help but to take a leg for herself before sharing it with others. FIGHTING STYLE thanks to her active life in the trees, mockingjay is in good shape- although strength isn't her best asset, she can definately get in a few injuries with a few well placed kicks from her strong legs. climbing trees is her specialty, and her stamina can keep her going all day with barely any food. she's quite fast as well, and good at laying low. however, jay could never go head to head in a fist fight, and if fighting, would much rather prefer to stay low and allow everyone else to kill themselves off. she's in no mental state to kill people- it's not exactly on her to do list for her life. her dream to travel to the capital and work as a biologist...but enough of that. her weapon of choice would be traps. she's gotten good at them from using them to trap birds, and they would be extremely helpful. she could probably use a sickle as well, since she knows how to weild the weapon, but prefer not to drag it along all the time and stop her from her tree climbing. so if she was caught in an encounter, if she couldn't get away...she would be at a loss. if injured, however, she does have a basic knowledge of poultices, since she herself gets injured so much. her knowledge of the world around her could ultimately help her as well- after all, she doesn't consider herself an intelectual for nothing! |
