A/N: First off, I'd like to say that I do not own the Hunger Games trilogy. All rights belong to Suzanne Collins.
This was inspired by all the stories I've seen that revolve around the 75 Victors of Panem. I'm also writing this so I don't confuse myself too much, when I'm writing my other stories because I'd like to have them relate to these victories as well.
These won't be entirely excerpts. These will be profiles.
The 1st Annual Hunger Games:
Victor: Soren Saltcoats
District: 4
Age: 18
Family: Sarina (mother; aged 46), Lester (father; aged 48), Chiles (sister; aged 20)
Kills: 3
Weapon: Sword
Training Score: 6
Appearance: Jet black, green eyes, pale skin, 5'11, lean and only the slightest bit muscular.
Background Information: Soren's family had been firm and loyal supporters of the rebellion. To say that he was surprised to be picked for the Games, would have been an understatement. Everyone saw it coming. Three years after his victory, he married one of his childhood lover, Bettina Sarlek and ended up having two children together. To this day, he is still one of the most renown victors of all of Panem.
The Games: Soren had no desire to murder. The other tributes, with the exception of District Two, were his friends from the rebellion. Not even the boy and girl from Two wanted to kill. These twenty-four tributes were hand picked, rather than reaped. They were the children of the most influential rebels of their Districts. The arena was a plain terrain, with no visible hiding area. There was a pile of weapons of all sorts that lay in the middle of the ring of tributes. It was anticipated that this would be either the longest or shortest Games in history.
For a week, the twenty four tributes simply conversed with each other. The Capital grew angry at the lack of violence and power that had been taking place, so they decided to pick a group of people to become Gamemakers. One singular cat-like mutt was unleashed and the arena exploded into chaos. The targeted tribute whacked away the mutt with the flat end of her weapon, and it landed on another tribute.
Instead of killing it, they watched on in shock. The tribute was torn apart into pieces and when finally declared dead, his district partner turned on the initial target. Revenge was what it was about. Soren's district partner (cousin) was beheaded and being blinded with rage, he murdered the three tributes left standing, declaring him the Victor of the 1st Annual Hunger Games.
Victors He Brought Home: Marina Diamonds, Triton Hunter, Alec Leach and Caspian Arcmede
Death: Soren Saltcoats died at the age of 41. After his parents, sister, wife and children had been brutally murdered by the president himself, he hung himself in his own bedroom. Nobody found him until two weeks later.
