District 5

• Acid Attack: He steals a shared water bottle from the Careers, fills it up with acid from the acidic rainfall, and returns it to them. He also pours acid on his opponents' heads before finishing them off with a knife after luring him to his tree trap.
• Adaptational Early Appearance: According to the first novel (which is set during the 74th Games), the Games in which the victor was a boy who scored a 3 in training took place "a few years ago", which would most likely place him somewhere between Finnick (victor of the 65th Games) and Annie (victor of the 70th Games) in terms of when he won. Jason meets the criteria of being a male victor who scored a 3 in training, but his Games take place nearly five decades before these events are implied to have happened in canon.

• Doomed by Canon: He's one of the sixteen victors who passes away before the 75th Hunger Games.
• Guile Hero: Jason's strategy during his Hunger Games. He poisoned all four Careers before managing to lure an unspecified number of tributes to his hiding place using the hippos, before severely injuring and killing them.
• In-Universe Nickname: He's known as "acid boy" following his Hunger Games.
• Kill Tally: Five tributes - both District One tributes, both Two tributes, and District Seven boy (Twiggy). He also killed an unspecified number of tributes from his hippo trap.
• O.C. Stand-in: In The Hunger Games, Katniss mentions a male Victor who scored a 3. The historian chronicling Jason's Hunger Games also mentions that he received a 3 as his training score, the lowest training score of any Victor.

Samuel von Altergott (32nd Hunger Games Victor)

• Children Forced to Kill: Seventeen when he enters his Hunger Games.
• Curb-Stomp Battle: Didn't struggle tracking down and killing his remaining opponents upon making it to the final three. Justified because he's the only tribute with a weapon.

• Children Forced to Kill: Sixteen when he enters his first Hunger Games.

• Sneak Attack: Part of Ivette's strategy throughout the Hunger Games. She attacks her first three victims from behind, finishing them off through a stab to either the back of their neck or their head.
• Tampering with Food and Drink: Ivette squeezes as much poisonous crab venom as she could into the District Four tributes' water bottle.

• Children Forced to Kill: Seventeen when she entered her first Hunger Games.
• Death from Above: How Marian kills Cressida. She climbed as high as she could, sliding down the ladder and knocking her into the alligator pit.

• Tampering with Food and Drink: Daniel pours some strange clear liquor into some water bottles and left them in places where they'd be easily found. It works, because the District Seven tributes find one and drink out of it, intoxicating them and attracting the attention of some bloodthirsty crows.

• Passed in Their Sleep: This was how Bluebell passed away following the 83rd Hunger Games.
• The Shut-In: Bluebell becomes this at the time of the 83rd Hunger Games. She relies on video chat to relay her message to both Easter and Pandorea before they enter the arena. Justified because she is in poor health and bedridden.
• Silver Fox: The Capitol described to be this during the reapings for the 75th Hunger Games.
  Narrator: "Almost all eyes were transfixed by Bluebell Creed (formerly Janssen), who stood amongst the crowd and even her fellow victors, in a long flowing blue dress with bluebells running through her hair. Even at the age of 71, she was still the definition of grace and beauty."

• Kill Tally: Two confirmed kills - District Six boy (Lincoln) and District Two boy (Cirro)
• Unknown Relative: Geranio chooses to withhold his daughter's name to the public, even though the Capitol wouldn't reap her due to her Capitolian heritage. Justified because Victors tend to be constantly in the spotlight.
• Uptown Girl: Geranio later on marries a granddaughter of Bluebell Janssen, while he originally comes from a working class background after his parents were arrested.

Easter Rollix (83rd Hunger Games Victor)

• The Alcoholic: He becomes one by the time of the 92nd Hunger Games, where Bloom can smell the whisky on his breath. Justified due to the stress of mentoring and watching children die.

• Piranha Problem: The piranhas in the arena are aggressive enough to bite a tribute to death.

The pit saves Delphine’s life after the District One tributes fall into it while trying to chase her.
• Younger Mentor, Older Disciple: Delphine is sometimes assumed to be this between the 93rd and the 96th Hunger Games due to both her age of victory and the typical age of reaped tributes.

Lucy Gray Baird (10th Hunger Games Victor)

• Adapted Out: The historian chronicling Lucy's Hunger Games did not mention Snow's involvement in helping Lucy win, instead saying that she sang to the snakes and that Reaper died from alleged poisoning.

• Doomed by Canon: She disappears following her Hunger Games.
• Kill Tally: Three confirmed tributes just like in the canon - Wovey, Treech, and Reaper.

Katniss Everdeen (74th Hunger Games Co-Victor)

• Children Forced to Kill: Sixteen when she enters her first Hunger Games. Seventeen when she takes part in the third Quarter Quell.
• Dead Man Writing: Katniss co-writes a letter before the 76th Games to her children, Crimson and Rue Mellark, if any of them are reaped to participate in the Hunger Games

• Children Forced to Kill: Seventeen when she entered her Hunger Games.
• Cover Identity Anomaly: Rue was able to pass as the District One girl using her archery skills and claims that "Rue" is short for "Ruby". ^note After the Reclamation, the frequency of the Quells (one-off twists to the Hunger Games to remind the people of Panem why the Games exist) is increased from once every 25 years to once every five years. The twist for the 90th Games is that none of the tributes are allowed to see any of the others until they get to the arena, so Phenomenon doesn't know Rue's not really his district partner. She should have done her homework better on District One Career academies and get her original district partner out of the way...
• Dead Guy Junior: Named after Rue, Katniss's ally during the 74th Hunger Games.
• Dead Man Writing: Rue is the recipient of one. Her parents wrote a letter the night before the 76th Hunger Games and had Gale deliver it to any of their children, if they were reaped for the Hunger Games.
• Generation Xerox: Like her parents, she also competes in the Hunger Games and has Effie on her Hunger Games team. Rue is said to also look like her mother and have the same scowl as she does.

District 14

• Foreign Ruling Class: The inhabitants in what is/was District Fourteen were ruled by the Capitol.
• One-Product Planet: District Fourteen focuses on vegetable farming since they were annexed into Panem.
• Polluted Wasteland: The narrator describes that England has became a "dangerous wasteland" as of '101. It's also implied that both Manchester and Oldham have mutants wandering the area even though they have been long-abandoned.
