Katniss's only little sister. She has a sensitive heart, a natural aptitude for healing, and a naive nature that is terrified of hunting and the woods. She is the center of Katniss's life, and her existence alone is the reason Katniss survives in the arena. Following the surprise drawing of her name, Katniss stepped forward to take her place.
She is the only person who somehow managed to remain completely pure in an environment as dreary as the Seam, where Katniss was a beast of nature. Being drawn in the lottery the very first time she was eligible to participate devastated the family.
Unlike Katniss, she is not olive-skinned and black-haired; she takes after her mother’s fair-skinned, delicate merchant heritage, a young girl with blonde hair, sea-blue eyes, and a face as fresh as a raindrop.
Katniss Everdeen
The sister whom she views as owing her life to and as her primary sanctuary of protection.
