Sophie Lamar

Appearance
She has short dark brown hair with light brown stripes. Big, brown eyes like a deer. She doesn’t have a very cheerful expression and always looks like she’s suspecting something to happen.

Personality
Extremely Intelligent – She’s extremely intelligent and since district 3 favours the clever she’s been allowed access to a lot of knowledge. She knows a lot about almost everything.

Cold? – No, she’s not a cold person, she just tends to seem that way. She just tends to think of other people as being stupid (not as clever as her) and don’t really understand their way of thinking. She wants everything in details and with their Latin name.

Selfish – She only thinks about herself because otherwise no one else would. She never asks into others unless it’s absolute necessary.

Strengths
Knowledge – Her knowledge covers everything from eatable plants, battle strategies, healing of wounds and building shelter to medical and engineering knowledge.

Material arts – Being small, a girl and a nerd she has to be able to defend her some how. Therefore she’s taken karate lessons for a couple of years.

Dreams
Becoming an important scientist in District 3 (or 15). Getting her parents back (even thought she knows it’s impossible).

Fears
Not being clever enough to solve a task or a problem. Not becoming a scientist. Falling in love or getting pregnant (like her parents). Killing someone.

Weaknesses
Social awkward – She doesn’t know have to react when she’s around people with a normal IQ.

Small – She’s quite small even for a girl.

Backstory
Sophie’s mother became pregnant at the age of 16. Her mother had to quit school and kill every hope of becoming a scientist. Sophie’s mother got a birth depression. Two years later Sophie’s father got reaped for the Games and District 3 got one more Victor – only it was a female. Sophie’s mother tried to kill herself. Sophie moved in with her grandparents while her mother was in the hospital. After two years in the hospital Sophie’s mother committed suicide, leaving Sophie all alone in a house full of nerds – no wonder she became one herself.

Family
Her father and mother are dead. Until she got reaped for the Games she lived with her grandparents at their house, which they share with another middle-aged couple. Most of the time Sophie gets mistaken for being her mother’s younger sister, because the grandparents’ age fits with that theory.
