12th Games

This arena was thought to be difficult for many of the weaker tributes, due to a lack of places to hide in the transparent landscape. Furthermore, this year cemented the idea of a 'career pack' with the tributes from Districts 1 and 2 grouping together in later years.

This years victor was Skarn Carter, age 16, from District 1. The arena took place in a sparse woodland, featured Violent rabbits, a blackout, and lasted for 9 days,

Although most tributes managed to grab some food, drink, or a weapon. Skarn and the rest of the careers were able to chase them and they successfully killed many tributes as they fled the bloodbath, with a total of fourteen deaths within two hours.

Over the next few days the career pack continued to roam the arena, mercilessly hunting tributes. However one night their food supply was set on fire by Rubius and Pixle (both 6) who both escaped before the careers had even spotted the fire.

With no food, Skarn and the other decided to hunt the rabbits for food, but the plan back-fired when they realized that the rabbits were much more deadly than they first appeared. Pegasus (2) died after shooting a rabbit with a bow and then being attacked by several more of them, leaving the other careers to flee for their lives.

With seven tributes remaining, a blackout suddenly occurred and the arena was thrown into complete darkness. Skarn (who had the only weapon between the career pack) very quickly stabbed the other careers before they could even realize what was happening. She stayed still for the rest of the blackout, before the light returned and she ate a raw rabbit in order to stay alive.

With just Skarn, Rubius, and Domingo (10) surviving the blackout, the rabbits chased them back to the cornucopia. In his panic, Domingo ran head first into a tree, impaling his brain on a branch, which left Skarn and Rubius to the first battle.

Although Rubius tried to put up a fight, he had no weapon and was easily killed by Skarn, who became this year's winner.

After the games, Skarn returned to District 1, where she vowed to never eat a rabbit again. She went on to work as the manager of a leading emerald mine.
