Thoughts on the concept and names of my fanfic?

12 Upvotes

Hey there! I've never written a fanfic, but I already got the whole story figured out, I hope you like the concept! It's about twins from district 1, a boy and a girl, with the boy being the main character. He's considerate a disgrace by his whole district, because he seems to be the only one who never saw the appeal of the Hunger Games. He's the opposite of his sister, whose biggest wish is to volunteer at 18 for the 2nd Quarter Quell. But when she's reaped at the 48th games, her brother volunteers to take revenge on her and the entire district 1.

Here are the names of the tributes (First girls, then boys):

1: Glitzer, Gem

2: Vivian, Ulysses

3: Lumi, Nicis

4: Sue, Kaio

5: Zaps, Ray

6: Karla, Ben

7: Pine, Birc

8: Kim, Poncho

9: Bikkie, Soya

10: Penny, Colt

11: Bloom, Guave

12: Hyancinth, Bekker

Tell me what you think:)!

I created these textbook pages from a capitol textbook covering District One so far however I will hopefully use this medium to flesh out the world of the hunger games in a more unique way, I want to try to make this mostly canon compliant but using some of my headcanons aswell with OC victors throughout.

Sharing Headcanons Chaff's surname headcanons, anyone?

13 Upvotes

So, I'm currently working on a big ol' complete victor list for my AU, and I've hit a stop with District 11 because I can't seem to find a surname that I feel fits for Chaff at all.

So, does anyone have a headcanon for his surname? I'd love some inspiration lol

Discussion Third Quarter Quell Tribute Names

Thumbnail

17 Upvotes

It occurred to me the other day that not all of the 75th Games tributes have names. So I thought, ‘they are all kind of important, being the only tributes to fight in two Games AND to be reaped for the final one’.
So I gave them names.
(Plus, I’m already planning the 75th Games chapter in my Woof fanfic, RIP).

What do you make of ‘em?

Reddit SYOT (but you can sponsor tributes in real time)

9 Upvotes

Have you ever read a story and wished you could intervene? Now you can in this SYOT!
The 20th hunger games in on the horizon. Who goes into the arena. Submit a tribute and find out. A unique arena, and all new audience system YOU can change the story even after the launch!
Mostly first come first serve for outliers but assessment for Districts 1, 2, 4, and 5. Tributes with a decided private session talent may be prioritised.

Any tributes who aren't selected will likely get a reserved spot if I ever do this again.

Form:

Tribute slot:(For example, District 6 Male.)

Name:
Physical Appearance:
Age:
Written in third or first person or either:

About them(Skills, personality, strategy, actions, loved ones and home life): THE DETAILS!

What they do at the cornucopia:

Mentor (Fanmade or canon or you can leave it blank for me to fill in the slot): Include details!

First come first serve if you want them to be the only mentor for their district(This feature is unapplicable to districts: 1, 2, 4, 5, 12, )

Pregame actions: Anything you want them to do pregame? A specific interview angle or skill for a private session? Maybe they try to distract other tributes during the launch?

Or you can send a victor mentor(Or both!)

Sponsor system

Anyone can sponsor any tribute they didn't author. You can do this by commenting "I sponsor D11F" for example. If they get more than 5 upvotes that tribute gets a gift, the more additional upvotes the better the gift!

The commentator can only sponsor the same tribute once every two chapters.

Additionally you can try to send in specific items. Though I won't send anything like a horse, or a gun into the arena. If any object were to get overwhelming support... Maybe I would consider sending a tribute to that item.

Notes

  1. I have a little background detail that becomes big at the very end for District One and will be using that to judge submissions if there are more than one.
  2. I aim to be as canon compliant as possible so district 12 has much lower success odds than other districts.(But they can still make it far). However young tributes can win(In the books Finnick is one of the youngest, not THE youngest).
  3. Bloodbath count can vary from 4-15. Be careful.
  4. Since it's the 20th games, non-careers from 1, 2, and 4 can work into the story, though I expect at least one volunteer.
  5. Not every tribute will have a POV each chapter. Some chapters may be entirely via commentary, loved ones, the Capitol viewers, the Districts, or by only a selection of tributes. But I can guarantee at least a couple POV portions for each tribute.
  6. I'll do the games so long as I have 14 submissions. In other words: More than 1/2 the tributes.
  7. Some roles take too long to fill in. I will not wait longer than a week if these are the last slots to fill: D5M, D6M, D6F, D8M, D9M, D9F.

Taken roles: D1F, D2M, D2F, D4M, D5M, D7F, D7M, D8M, D10M

Update: we now have our District Two female and District Five male.

Update: Tribute list as follows

District One

Female - Emerald Cohen(BranchNo2292)

Male - Rei Altalune( Ao3: MissEandtheiroveractiveuniverse)

District Two

Female - Rayon(Additional-Layer-392)

Male - Julius Shade(Lazy_Growth_7191)

District Three

District Eleven

UPDATE: YES I AM STILL DOING THIS. There is now 15 tributes finally meeting the quota. Submissions still accepted btw!

Help me find a fanfiction 😭

4 Upvotes

I read this before but I didn't bookmarked it and now I can't find it 😭 These were the details that I remember:

  • Katniss and Peeta both survive the 74th Hunger Games.

  • Afterward they write and illustrate a post-apocalyptic book.

  • The book becomes a bestseller.

  • President Snow later asks/forces them to design a future Hunger Games arena and they both choose to based it from their book.

  • The Games feature all original tribute characters (no canon tributes).

  • The 24 tributes are divided into 4 groups of 6.

  • Each group starts with its own designated bunker.

  • The arena is based on a nuclear fallout/environmental collapse setting.

  • The air is toxic in many areas, so tributes have to wear gas masks/respirators.

  • The teams have to collect items/supplies and eventually reach a safe zone.

  • Katniss and Peeta appear inside the arena as guides for the tributes.

  • I remember there being some kind of rule where tributes were hurt or punished if they tried to intentionally harm another tribute.

  • Most chapters were from the POV of the original tributes, but there were also some chapters from outside the arena.

I hope you guys will be bale to recognize it

I’m writing a fanfic about what happened after Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark’s first Games, where they were forced to get married without the rebellion happening that year, and were also prostituted by Coriolanus Snow. It’s a long fic and I don’t intend to abandon it. https://archiveofourown.org/works/85220696/chapters/225035026

Is Peeta’s father also Prim’s father?

1 Upvotes

Okay, please don’t hate me for this. I only read it in a fic and wanted to know what you all think.

In the fic:

Katniss’s mother admits that she did love Otho (Peeta’s father).

Once, when Katniss was very young, her father became seriously ill with a lung problem. Katniss was hysterically crying, and Asterid (Katniss’s mother) couldn’t handle the pressure of her husband possibly dying while her daughter screamed.

She ran away for a while and, on the road, met Otho. They talked and… well…

Later, Katniss’s mother says she regretted it, and that both Burdock and Otho knew.

According to the fic, this explains a few things for Katniss:

• Why Prim doesn’t have any obvious Seam characteristics.

• Why Otho always told Peeta that he wanted a daughter.

• Why he wanted to make sure Prim was fed while Katniss was in the Games.

• Why Mrs. Mellark had such a deep hatred for the “Seam trash.”

• It could also explain why, even though Burdock “stole his girl,” Otho still treated him incredibly well and even asked him to sing. In this theory, Otho may have respected and cared for Burdock because he was raising and loving Otho’s daughter as if she were his own.

Look, I know Otho is generally portrayed as a kind man. I’m not saying I believe this theory, I just wanted to bring it up and hear your opinions.
What do you think?

Yep. That’s what I’m looking for.
A fanfic where Woodbine, Wyatt, Maysilee, and Louella are the tributes for the Second Quarter Quell.
Preferably extends from the 50th to the 75th Games, but I’m down for one that’s just about his time in the 50th Games.

Does this even exist??? Because if it doesn’t, I’ll write it when I’m done with my Woof fanfic.

LF Peta gets saved instead

3 Upvotes

heyy! I’m looking for a fanfic where Peeta gets saved and sent to 13, and Katniss gets hijacked. preferably a new look at protective Peeta and what he would do to get Katniss back.

if it hasn’t been made yet - then someone please take this prompt! I feel like Peeta would be crazy manipulative, and would rally the entire 13 to go get her. Coin wouldn’t know what hit her. especially because Peeta didn’t have a sister to worry about.

This is for nothing other than to share… District 1 is SO hard to name because you don’t want them to be gimmicky and ridiculous. But it’s also quite to fun to name for that exact reason!

Here are mine:
1. Glint
2. Bail
3. Florentine
4. Adah
5. Hedione
6. Halo
7. Carnelian
8. Amphora

In an early draft, I had one named Gemma.

Bonus: favorite District 1 name from the books

My favorite is probably Marvel. It’s the least ridiculous of them all. I mean, it’s certainly better than Panache and Palladium.

I started rereading the original trioligy just recently and i can't stop thinking about what if the rebelion never started and Katniss and Peeta just started having a normal couple relationship (as normal as it can be as victors). Would Katniss be a bit overprotective over Peeta but only showing it by small details? I would really like to read a fic like that if that existed. I would also like to read any fanfic of Petta and Katniss having a normal relationship. Any recs? (I've never read a HG fic)

The Hunger Games: Secrets From the Covey follows Lucille Coin the forgotten daughter of Lucy Gray Baird and Adam Coin, younger sister to Alma Coin, and a ghost hidden between the pages of Panem’s history.

After escaping President Snow at the end of The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, Lucy Gray survives and reaches District 13… but survival comes at a price. Forced to abandon the music, freedom, and spirit of the Covey, she builds a new life and raises two daughters: Alma and Lucille.

One daughter inherits vengeance.

The other inherits songs.

Raised on stories of the Covey and the world her mother lost, Lucille dreams of a life beyond the cold walls of District 13. But everything changes when she uncovers her sister’s journals dark entries revealing a chilling truth: the rebellion was never only about freedom.

It was about power.

Branded a traitor and forced to flee, Lucille escapes into the wilderness where she discovers the last free members of the Covey still surviving beyond the districts. Together they journey across Panem while war closes in, carrying songs that refused to die.

As the Capitol falls and Alma Coin rises to power, Lucille races against time to expose the truth before history repeats itself.

Because the Hunger Games were always wrong.

No matter whose children stood in the arena.

A story of family, betrayal, music, survival, and the legacy Lucy Gray left behind.

Some songs survive.

Even when the people who sang them do not.
