She doesn't care if her words hurt people, she doesn't care if they get her in trouble. She is not one to sit idly by because what needs to be done might require some balls. She's got plenty of those. She would rather do it herself than let someone else mess it up anyways. Needless to say, she's a pretty fearless person. [b]Stealthy:[/b] Elina has always been really good at sneaking around, ever since she was a little girl she's been adept at getting places unnoticed. This is a great asset to her in the Games, as she's highly skilled in camouflage, sneaking, and tracking. She's an all around stealthy person, not really sticking out. [b]Intuitive:[/b] Elina is very observant, a deep thinker, and an active listener. She's really good at picking up queues and finding dirt on people just from listening to others talk and interact. She's highly intelligent, and skilled nowt technology as well. [color=darkgray][b][u]Weaknesses:[/u][/b][/color] [b]Smol:[/b] Elina is not a big person, and though she has good aim, she would lose badly in a test of brute strength as she doesn't have much of that. She's thin and only stands at five foot four inches tall. She's about one hundred thirty five pounds soaking wet, so she's a pretty small person. She's fast and stealthy, but if she's caught by someone who is much stronger than her, her goose could very well be cooked. [b]Slow to Trust:[/b] It takes a while for Elina to really trust someone, as she believes that trust has to be earned. She's not one to put her trust into many people, having dealt with a lot of people letting her down. She's got a wall up that has to be knocked down, but once that happens she's the most loyal person to have on your side. [b]Cocky:[/b] Elina is good at being stealthy and great with knives, and she knows this. She is very cocky when it comes to her skill level. She's pretty much cocky when it comes to just about anything, it's just in her nature. She's got too much confidence, and that can very much lead to her downfall. [color=darkgray][b][u]Personality:[/u][/b][/color] Elina is confident to the point of cockiness, arrogant to the point of recklessness, and stealthy to the point of near invisibleness. She's not one to initiate a conversation, though she is one to finish one. She's quiet around anyone who doesn't piss her off, but once she's pissed off she's like a firework with no end. She's just a small angry person once you get her going. She hates anything to do with the Capitol, is a rebellious soul with a large attitude and the silver tongue to go with it. She can't stand a bully, though she also can't stand a weakling either. She hates lairs more than anything else in the world. [color=darkgray][b][u]History/Bio:[/u][/b][/color] Elina was born in the late summer to Elbert and Malina Duncan of District Thirteen shortly before the war started. The war broke out when she was five, and Elina didn't have many memories of it. She spent a lot of time with her aunt during those days, her parents off working a lot and since her aunt was a tailor, it worked out perfectly. Elina didn't know until much later that her parents had been involved with the rebels of District Thirteen, a rather large group of people who fought against Snow. But the terrible part was that they'd lost, Snow had won after a solid year of fighting, and then finally a deal had been struck. Since most of the rebels had smaller children, the second part of the deal would happen much later once everything had been set up. But basically, all Thirteen had to do was dissappear off the map, they were to move underground and continue their lives there and Snow would spare them. If, once everything was ready, the rebel's agreed to pool their children's names into the First Annual Hunger Games, a competition to the death of the Capitol's making. If they didn't agree to these terms, Snow would blow them all up. It really was a lose lose situation. So years later when the First Annual Hunger Games had been announced, Elina's name had gone into the pot. She honestly didn't carw if she got chosen or not, she was simply pissed off about her being involved at all. Snow should have no say over her life.

She's quick-witted and sassy, once she opens up to people. Holly prefers to solve problems with her brain, not having much in the brawn category. She's known for her excellent math skills, ability to assess a situation and come up with a plan on the spot, and also for her ability to cut people with her words alone. [B]Agile:[/b] Holly is very fast, one of the fastest in the district. She was often given the task of running information back and forth through the lumber mills and fields, as she is very light on her feet and also in possession of a very good memory. She attributes her agility and ability to be light on her toes, on her love of dance. [B]Intuitive:[/b] When Holly is around someone long enough, she can pick up on their body language, tonal inflections, and subtle cues in reading their mood during different situations. She's prides herself in her ability to understand nonverbal communication, even if it's just the shifting of weight from one foot to the other. She's not so great at it around strangers though, as she can often misread things of she puts in too much thought. [U]Weaknesses:[/u] [B]Shy:[/b] Holly isn't all that comfortable around strangers. She also isn't the type to talk more than necessary. She's not a fan of idle chit chat unless she's invested in the person in some way. Holly can get flustered easily if her emotions play too much of a role, she doesn't exactly enjoy being put on the spot, and prefers to think through scenarios over and over to achieve the best results. She doesn't exactly have the most self-confidence, and she's absolutely awful at making the first move. [B]Protective:[/b] That being said, if Holly cares for someone, she will go to the ends of the earth to protect them. Holly is the first person to throw herself in the path of danger for those she cares for. She will self-sacrifice for their happiness. She's also completely against bullying, despises those who pick on the weak or young, and has a soft spot for animals. If she loves someone, she will give her own life to keep them safe. Holly has a huge heart, which can often get her into trouble. [B]Physically Weak:[/b] Holly is not the type to be able to fling axes around like their ribbons, despite working around Lumber since she was a child. She's fast, and has above average stamina, and is also very nimble and flexible. She is not, however, very strong physically. Her weapons of choice are daggers. Being from the Lumber district, pepe are often surprised with how unable she is to wield the larger axes known in her district. Having spent much of her time relating messages and being a scout for oncoming danger, she's more of a planner than an executer. She's got deadly aim though, so she can be quite deadly. She's exceptional at hiding amongst the trees and shadows, having spent her life around them. She's also very attune to nature in general. [U]Personality:[/u] Holly is quiet at first glance, but once she warms up to someone she's quick-witted, sassy, and extremely sarcastic. She loves using her words eloquently to both confuse and amaze, prides herself on her ability to think fast on her feet, and also on her ability to be so quiet she can blend into her surroundings with ease. She doesn't like being put on the spot, especially in large crowds. In fact, large crowds make her nervous, because she finds it hard to read people. But with her ability to think fast, she can blend in with a little practice. Holly is compassionate, headstrong, and protective of those who can't protect themselves. She's very capable at acting and playing a role, so much so that President Snow has no idea she's a double agent. [U]Bio:[/u] Holly lost her parents at a young age, one to an accident in the lumber mills and one from a chronic illness. She was raised by her Aunt and Uncle, who she loves dearly. Holly spent most of her early years learning the ins and puts of her district, studying any and every subject she could, and being one of the few tasked with relating information from the higher ups to the workers, as she has an impeccable memory. She quickly earned the trust of the officials around her, even gaining the attention of President Snow for her quick-thinking and attention to detail. But what the President doesn't know, is that she is completely against his rule. Once the Rebellion became more active, she was one of the first in her district to be recruited, her skills useful for her role as a double agent. She currently relays information back to the rebels on a regular basis, giving them inside information on President Snow. [/Color] [/Center][/hider]
