Careers: The 61st Hunger Games

by DragonoftheStars1429

"In District 12, we call them the Career Tributes, or just the Careers. And like as not, the winner will be one of them." The Hunger Games have come again, and another batch of ruthless killers has arrived, ready to kill. Which one will accomplish their life's dream? Partial SYOT open.

1. Submission info

Hi! I know that I already have an SYOT going, but I decided to just put up this side project (so don't expect weekly updates or anything). I'll put rules in and everything, and I hope you consider submitting!

A story because I technically can't submit without it:

There was once a cat named Buttercup. He was a very angry cat. One day, he clawed Katniss Everdeen in the face. The end.

And now onto some rules!

1. Realistic tributes. Obviously, I can't write a Mary Sue tribute. I know these guys are Careers, but they're not going to be perfect.

2. This is NOT first come, first serve. My full SYOT is, but it doesn't seem fair to give the spots to the first seven or so people who are interested. I want to give everyone a chance.

3. Please fill all of the form out well. I need details, and I need to have something to work on. Please give me that.

4. I'm not doing sponsor points. You can get sponsor points for Blackout on this story, but I just don't see the point. Careers don't usually need sponsors until they split off, anyways, and by then they just kill until they win.

5. The victor will be one of the main characters, obviously.

6. Guests are allowed to submit, but if you're a user your submission will only be counted if it's a PM. NOTE TO GUESTS: I'll moderate your review and delete it unless you ask for it to be posted. I'll figure out the due date by next chapter or the one after.

Form (also on my profile):

The slots are as follows: 6 careers (reaped careers allowed, but please limit the number of them), 4 outliers (1 will join careers, 3 that won't). What to title your PM: Name, District & Gender, Slot you're submitting for [career, outlier with careers, outlier]. Ex., Katniss Everdeen, 12F, outlier.

Thanks! Hope you consider submitting!
