110
111	* BrattyHalfPint: He acts like a self entitled prick.
112	* DeathByIrony: There's a particular quote from Wystan that gives his death a certain level of irony.

141
142	* HardDrinkingPartyGirl

206
207	!! Felix Brough
208	The District 2 mentor who just barely survived his Games, rejected by the careers and left to starve the death.

214
215	* BitchInSheepsClothing: Synthia fits this to a T.

218	The mentor for District 4, and a rare case of a career choosing an underdog alliance over the pack.
219
220	* CoveredWithScars: Melvin's always wearing warm, woolly clothing and scarves, even with it's hot out. Why? Because he's covered in frostbite scars, of course!

224
225	* CreepySouvenir: While he wasn't allowed to take home to ''actual'' [[spoiler: dog-tribute hybrid muttations]] from his Games, Adam made certain to commission statues of every single one. [[spoiler: Even the tributes who weren't made into mutts postmortem.]]

[[spoiler: On the eve of the 85th Games, which Morrigan went on to mentor for, Adam had most of his belongings removed from his home and lost custody of his children to her.]] All he has left to comfort himself are his statues, which even Morrigan acknowledges are all he cares about.

229	The District 6 mentor with very strong opinions about how tributes "play" the Hunger Games.
230
231	* AcheyScars: Barbara's eye and the area around it is heavily scarred, and in a conversation with [[spoiler: a horrifically hungover Morganite]] she reveals that she's in constant pain because of it.

232	* AffectionateNickname: Everyone calls her Barb, which she prefers over Barbara.
233	* TheCynic: Let's see... [[spoiler: Lost someone dear to her in her Games?]] Check. [[spoiler: Attacked Finn after he tried to help her sister relieve her withdrawals?]] Check.

236	!! Magnolia Hammond
237	The District 7 mentor and a potential employer for Ham prior to Ham's reaping.

240	* LamePunReaction: Ham and Cyber's viewpoints every time Cirrus calls Maggie "Meowgnolia" hammer this trope home for her. [[spoiler: She even hijack's Cyber's reaping just to keep Cirrus from catifying ''his'' name as well.]]
241
242	!! Charlotte Harper
243	The District 8 mentor and one of the more legendary victors in recent Hunger Games history.
244
245	* BodyCountCompetition: Played with. Charlotte took down almost ''half'' of the complete roster of tributes in her Games, but she wasn't truly paying attention to how many she took down. [[spoiler: She just wanted to steal the cornucopia while everyone was busy hunting everyone else.]]

254
255	* NauseaFuel: Her whole introduction is this in spades. [[spoiler: Not only does she have a giant, dead spider on top of her, but she goes on to ''skin and eat it'' in order to survive the night.]] It scarred her so bad that Dianne now gets physically sick at the mere sight of meat.

257	!! Barley Tanton
258	The mentor for District 11 and one of the younger victors in the roster.
259
260	* SpeechImpediment: Barley suffers from one of these after [[spoiler: facing punishment as a child to keep from copying his brother's stutter]]. Naturally, that plan backfired.
261
262	!! Nirav Cashille
263	The District 12 mentor and one of the avoxes sent from the Capitol to replace the District's deceased.
264
265	* NeverAcceptedInHisHometown: District 12 ''loathes'' Nirav. To the point where, when he was reaped, his escort only said one tribute was going into the Games. The only time he's been acknowledged since winning is when [[spoiler: Haymitch demanded Nirav mentor instead of him]].
