Name: Talia Waters

Age: 12

Gender: Female

District: 4

Alignment: Lawful Good

Appearance: Talia is a small girl, standing at 5'0. She has sea blue eyes, chocolate brown hair and light skin. She normally styles her hair in a braid and wears bright clothing, specifically blue.

Personality: Talia is pretty vulnerable and emotional and is frequently neurotic, but this can be seen especially when tragic/horrific events occur. This was especially the case with her elder sister Annabeth volunteering in her place. However, she can also be calm, kind and collected. When she's calm, she gives helpful advice to those she cares about, specifically Annabeth.

Backstory: Talia is the youngest of two girls, Talia being born four years after Annabeth. She was born into a small, working-class family and because of this, Talia and Annabeth's parents couldn't afford the money to send them to the district's Career Academy. Instead, they were destined for a life of working at the docks.

The father of the girls worked at the docks of District 4. Sometimes, he'd have to go on dangerous journeys, making the mother of the girls worried for his safety. Luckily, he did return after those journeys. But that wouldn't be the case.

When Annabeth was 7 and Talia was 3, their father didn't return from the sea. After months of searching, he, alongside several other fishermen and women were declared dead in absentia. Annabeth, as she was old enough to understood what was going on, was devastated but Talia was still oblivious. All she could comprehend that her father was in a better place now.

Annabeth became protective of Talia, despite being a schoolgirl (she had been able to go to school as their mother received money with the death of their father) and gathering fish for the family when she wasn't at school. Life was like this for the next nine years.

Talia had grown up to become a schoolgirl and a healer. She was kind, but sometimes she could also be emotional and neurotic. And the latter was exactly how she reacted when her sister volunteered in her place, when she had been reaped in her first year of reapings.
