Iskander Crane
Son of Head Gamemaker
Iskander was at the top of the world. And why wouldn't he be? He was born into a privilege that most citizens of Panem could never imagine.
Iskander came from the upper crust of the Capitol elite. His family was old money. Before Thirteen's Rebellion, the Crane Family worked in the travel industry, developing luxury hotels in the best vacation destinations. The Crane Family business had taken a hit during Thirteen's Rebellion, but it bounced back. That was despite the travel restrictions placed on Panem's citizens.
The Crane Family owned the only luxury resort in District 4. It was the only hotel or resort in the district. Four was one of the biggest travel destinations in Panem, and the Crane Family cornered the market.
The Crane Family owned a business hotel and three Pleasure Houses in District 1. Iskander had lost his virginity to one of the whores from the Pleasure House when he was eleven.
A nature resort in District 7, and three factories in Three, Six, and Eight. To top it all off, a cattle ranch in Ten.
That was only the business side of things. They had a summer house in Seven, just outside the district proper. It was under the protection of the local peacekeepers. Whenever they stayed, the family never saw a single district citizen.
Iskander's aunt ran the family business. She had been the heir apparent when his grandparents retired. In another life, he might have resented that, but Iskander's father had made a dynasty of his own.
Seneca Crane didn't enroll in the University like most of his family. Instead, he attended Games College, graduating as a Gamemaker's Assistant. Through effort and perseverance, he worked his way up to Gamemaker and then Head Gamemaker.
Iskander's father amassed his own fortune, and though it didn't rival the family wealth, it was certainly impressive. Iskander didn't live in the Crane Mansion but a luxury apartment in the city center.
Iskander lacked for nothing. He was born with a silver spoon, and his father gave him anything he wanted. That was the very reason he and his friends were vacationing in the paradise of the 50th Hunger Games arena.
Iskander, his girlfriend Venus, and his best friend Hermes were staying in the Presidential Suite. This was despite being fifteen.
They traveled alone in spite of their age. The law didn't apply to the powerful, and the Crane family were powerful. Iskander's father had been Head Gamemaker for two years. It afforded them more than money.
Seneca had called in a favor from the President. The three friends got Cashmere and Gloss for one week at the arena. The twin victors did whatever Iskander and his friends asked of them.
Naturally, Iskander and Venus shared Cashmere's company. She was the most beautiful victor, after Finnick Odair. Hermes preferred to spend his time in the bedroom with Gloss, but Iskander wasn't going to judge.
"Yo, ISKANDER! VENUS!" Hermes yelled.
"WHAT?" Iskander yelled back. He had just woken up a few minutes ago, and right now, the only thing he wanted to do was squeeze Cashmere's brests. Iskander compared them to Venus's.
"The Reaping is about to begin!"
Iskander forgot all about Cashmere's perky tits. He jumped out of bed with Venus and raced to the TV room.
Author's Note: And there you have it. The little creep called Iskander. He's someone who'd make my skin crawl, but he's a product of the Capitol elite. I thought it was important to show that.
He's going to play his part in these Hunger Games. He'll be our eye in the Capitol as they progress.
As you can see from the title, this is a Submit Your Own Tribute story. You can find the Tribute Submission Form on my profile. Please fill it out and post it as a review or PM it to me. Thank you.
I was originally going to write a fic about an OC victor's games, and their life as a mentor. But I thought it would be more interesting to write a SYOT story. The winner of these games will become the main character in a squel fic, as a menor in the 74th games. Then maybe a tribute in the 75th and then a character in Mockingjay.
We'll have to wait and see.
We will not be accepting tributes from District 12.
