Shaya "Shennie" Polavski

Backstory
Shaya "Shennie" Polavski was born into the career District 3. She lives with her parents and a sister named Shanika (nickname "Nika"). Her parents were never reaped so there was no one but her sister, a Career to teach her to hunt.

After Nika won the 34th Hunger Games when she was 17, she briefly taught Shennie about repairing her weapons and healing. Maybe because of the district's subject of technology and Shennie's outstanding talent, her repairing weapon skill are better than her any other skill. Her hunting comes the second best, but she prefers to use weapons from other districts, especially throwing knives. She is better at both long-range and short-range attack. Like Finnick, she can use trident. She is good at healing wounds, but for her it's difficult to heal other Tributes. Her poorest skill is identifying foods, so she knows no poisonous ones besides nightlocks. She decides when she is in the Hunger Games, her only source of food is water.

Unlike any other richer district kids, Shennie never went to an academy for the Careers. Her parents suggested her to go to one, but she protested and refused, because she thought Careers are vain, mean and ruthless. She never liked the Careers and never wanted to be one.

Her age and her sister is 9 years old apart. When another girl is reaped for the Games, Nika watched the 16-years-old Shennie volunteering for the Hunger Games. Because of this, she was a little traumatized but the sisters were able to make peace in a nick of time.
