Shine Sieve

Name: Shine Sieve

Age: 15

Member of: District 1

What profession are you (optional): Works in her mother's famous cupcake shop

Appearance:
Shine is known for her nearly white hair that falls gently past her shoulders. She regularly visits the salon to copy a capitol-like style and adds pastel pink underneath her natural blonde. The style is modeled after her personal icing bag. Her skin is fair and she has barely visible brown freckles. She has large brown eyes and eyelashes that look like they've been surgically extended. Shine, true to her name, accessorizes herself with a lot of glitter. Her height is average, if not a bit on the short side, and her weight is around 117-120lbs, which doesn't appear to be heavy. Her lips are a bit thinner than society prefers, but she coats them regularly with glitter and gloss. She consistently wears tan, knit boots that come up above her ankle but below her knee. Her favorite dress is a loose fitted pink dress, matching the light color of her altered hair, that's light in material and has glitter imbedded in it. She will often wear a pastel yellow cover-up over the dress, to tone down her shine just a bit. She collects lockets and rarely lets anyone open them, not as if she has anything to hide because they don't contain anything. I suppose that might be the reason she doesn't show anyone, because she doesn't want anyone to know how alone she really is. She'll always wear at least three lockets around her neck, golden in color, all varying in lengths.

Personality:
Shine has a nickname around her school and she is best described as a sweetheart. It actually baffles her, because she doesn't really consider herself extra nice. She tells herself it's probably because she makes cupcakes. Cupcakes are always associated with sweetness. Shine tends to be outgoing and friendly, but she has her moments where she becomes a bit reclusive and prefers to be alone. She falls in love way too easily, and if she ever was chosen for The Games, heaven forbid, the first boy to flirt with her would be the best bet to kill her. Her mother isn't overprotective, so Shine does enjoy privileges, such as sneaking out without actually having to do the sneaking part. Shine loves the capitol and wants very badly to have their lifestyle of extravagant parties and fashion. Though, she'd probably never dye her own skin or do anything super crazy. Even though she lives in a career district, she has no interest in The Hunger Games. Luckily she has never had to sign up for tessera but considering her father was a contestant she does fear that one day her name will be pulled. She's not sure how she'd handle it, but she spends a great amount of time thinking about it. She'd probably just die in the initial bloodbath, she's no warrior and despite being from district 1, she's no career.

History: (*note, this has been modified from my original app/profile character sheet)
Her mother and father met in high school when they were 15 and were a popular pair. Her mother was very much like Shine, outgoing and warm, however her father was much more pompous. He was strong and enjoyed exercising and playing sports. He loved having his muscles so defined and the attention he received from being good looking. He was just 18 when the Hunger Games started, and wanting the glory of the first win, also thinking he would be the victor, he volunteered. He didn't win. He died never knowing that his sweetheart back home was months pregnant with a baby girl. His death was not unlike other careers, down to last few and stabbed in the back by an ally. Literally. Stabbed in the back. Her mother never remarried or had other children, despite still being young and rather attractive. Instead she has made a successful career out of baking, owning a small cake and cupcake shop that is very popular with the Peacekeepers and fellow community members alike. Shine grew up with a fairly standard childhood, aside from lacking a parent. Her mother was very warm and since she ran a lucrative business she was able to provide Shine with anything she wanted. When Shine was a young girl her favorite thing to do was color on white aprons for her mother to wear at the shop. She still makes them for her and her mother.
