[[TheHero Our Hero]], age 16 from District 12, the poorest over the twelve (remaining) districts. After [[DisappearedDad losing her father]] when she was only 11, she managed to bring her family back from the brink of starvation almost single-handedly by hunting in the woods outside her district. When her little sister Prim's name is drawn in [[LotteryOfDoom the reaping]] to join [[DeadlyGame the Hunger Games]], Katniss steps up to take her place, unwittingly setting off a chain of events that will soon engulf all of Panem.
