Are you, are you, coming to the tree, where they strung up a man, they say who murdered three? Strange things did happen there, no stranger would it be, if we met, at midnight, in the hanging tree. |

Are you, are you, coming to the tree, where the dead man called out, for his love to flee? Strange things did happen there, no stranger would it be, if we met, at midnight, in the hanging tree. |

Are you, are you, coming to the tree, where I told you to run, so we'd both be free? Strange things did happen there, no stranger would it be, if we met, at midnight, in the hanging tree. |

Are you, are you, coming to the tree, wear a necklace of hope, side by side with me? Strange things did happen there, no stranger would it be, if we met, at midnight, in the hanging tree. |

I had an idea for interactive stalkers, which is something I simply made up. This is a Hunger Games role-play, so we will have a large number of characters, and many will die, but I think it would be interesting if the stalkers voted which characters should live or die— to an extent. If we don't get any stalkers, which we very well might not, we'll simply decide for ourselves. Now, onto the rest of the information…
This RP is set within the Hunger Games universe. It would be quite helpful if you've read the books or seen the movies before joining. If you haven't, there's a lot of information you will not understand, and I am afraid I will butcher trying to explain. There's a new book, Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, but if you have not read it, you should be okay. If you have, I had an idea I may suggest, since it will not spoil anything in the book for you, but if you haven't read it, no worries. I thought it also might be interesting to do one in which Katniss Everdeen never won the games, and perhaps do a RP with a whole "alternate rebellion." Or, maybe, in the future, the Hunger Games have returned, and Katniss is but a hero from the past. (Or, if viewed negatively, merely a rebel whose actions led to nothing in the end.)
You will have to be able to use many characters for this RP. There are 24 tributes, and each of us will take 12. Keep in mind that most may die. To remind you of the districts…
#1 makes goods for the Capitol, I believe
#2 is mostly military and Peacekeeper training
#3 is technology
#4 is fishing
#5 is… powerplants and the source of electricity, I think? I recall a large dam being here.
#6 is transportation, so I assume a lot of vehicles and mechanic work, though that's just my own personal interpretation
#7 is lumber
#8 is textiles and factories
#9 is agriculture I think
#10 is farming/livestock
#11 is agriculture, but a little different
#12 is coal mining
I could be wrong on some of these, so correct me if you spot a mistake. I would like the male tribute from every even numbered district and the female from every odd numbered district. We do not have to make full sign-ups for each, just their names. The rest of the information will come as we RP.
- Keep cursing minimal/no profanity. DO NOT EXCEED PG-13 LANGUAGE
- Nothing too steamy. No sex, please.
- Please try to keep romances MxF, if any happen to occur.
- Violence is welcome.
- Be semi-literate. Please and thank you.
- Have fun. Ask questions. I don't have a specific plot, per se, so feel free to suggest.
(This sounds really cool, could I join?)
(Awesome! Does the amount of characters I have matter?)
(No, ma'am. There are twenty-four tributes, and each of us will have twelve, but if that's too many, the others can be vague mentions and side-characters. Most of the tributes will die during the games, anyway. Have you read the Hunger Games series, or watched the movies?)
(Yep, multiple times. I haven't read the new book yet, though. I can get my characters up by sometime tomorrow.)
(Absolutely. Take all the time you want. The "sign-ups" don't have to be detailed. Are you alright with having males of odd numbers and females of even? So, males from 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and/or 11, girls from 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and/or 12, whilst I have the reverse? Or we can switch it. I'm going to be pleased either way.)
(You may be an "interactive stalker", but I have already allowed my new friend Ellia to join. Apologies.)
(What would an "interactive stalker" do? Would they be somewhat like the sponsors/gamemakers?)
(In essence, yes! You can sort of affect the games and things that happen. I felt that making this a group RP wouldn't end as well since most of the tributes die in the actual Hunger Games, and even if we do some sort of plot that doesn't require all but one tribute to die, many still will, and I feel like this would become troublesome if a whole group of people were trying to decide who lives or dies. I thought the idea of an interactive stalker would be interesting to try. I've not seen it done before, and I'm not sure how well it will work, but you never know until you experiment. So… I suppose, yes, you'd be sort of like sponsors and gamemakers. Voting for who lives, throwing in things that should happen in the arena, who should get what supplies, etc. I'm not sure if I'm making logical sense, but…)

Excellent. Alright, so… let's see. What else should we establish? What sort of arena do we want to throw our characters into this time around?
(slams hands on table I love the Hunger Games. I will be an "interactive stalker," if that's okay with you.)
(gasp Can I be interactive stalker?? I've literally been watching all of the movies recently)
What do you think about some sort of run-down, abandoned city arena?

I think that you, my dear, are a genius. Yes, please. That's brilliant.
(To all of you stalkers— I welcome you with open arms. I'm shocked at how many people have taken an interest, but I'm glad of it.)

Yay, okay! Is there anything else we need to come up with?

Mmmm… Not that comes to mind right off. Where we should begin, I suppose, is the next question.
Right, we could always start like each game does, with the countdown and the bloodbath, but I'm down with anything. It's your RP :)
