Game Summary: The Games is a panfandom version of the Hunger Games. In this game, tributes are no longer children from the districts, but various people hailing from different worlds. They are forced to fight to the death in large arenas as a Never Ending Quell and between arenas, they are alternately left to their own devices or forced to put on a show and smiling face for the population of Panem. Because they come back from death after each arena, they are seen more as soap operas than even normal games and much attention is paid to their relationships and dramas (manufactured or not). There is occasionally chances given to play a part in the rebellion of the citizens against the Capitol or to play up to the Capitol. Recently an option was given to move characters from the general area of the Capitol/Games Arenas to a small rebellious district.
How long was your character in Game: About a year
History of Character in their Game: The Disciple was brought into the Games in the time between arenas, just before the crowning of a victor. Within her first day, she reunited with Signless, her lover who had been dead for sweeps, and met the younger version of the troll who would become the Grand Highblood. The troll he became was the one who ordered the death of Signless and herself (though she escaped it). She and the troll who was calling himself ‘The Initiate’ found out who each other was and were immediately hostile. This would take more than half a year to change. It’s also notable that she met another young troll who would take up an important place in her life, Terezi, and it’s to be noted that they didn’t exactly get off on the best foot either. The Disciple was a bit of a busybody and shoved her nose in relationships she didn’t understand as she tried to take back up her role as a mediator. Just before her first arena, she reunited with the Psiionic, another troll she had traveled with, only to find he loathed her and blamed her for much of what happened. She was too guilty to protest it and her relationship with the Psiionic withered to nonexistence.
There was an incident between her arrival and her first arena where she ‘volunteered’ to help with an attack on the Capitol. Though she had no love for the Capitol, she did it simply to keep her and her own out of danger. It didn’t work too well as she was caught in the crossfire of a flamethrower and ended up with severe burns.
It was really her first arena that things went south. It went badly from the start or the cornucopia, with the Initiate and her fighting over supplies and wounding each other. She clawed his face and eye and he broke her arm. Things only got worse from there, with torrential downpours, blazing heat, dinosaurs and insects all around. The arena, for her, culminated in a fight that the Disciple didn’t actually take part in but that she had to deal with nonetheless. The Signless was forced, once by his own morals and another by the vengeful moirail, Initiate, to kill two people he cared deeply. When the Disciple stumbled upon him he had already ate food that would kill him. He seemed not to care that she was there and told her to let him die. She lost hope after his death and when her own came, she didn’t seem to care much either.
This lack of reaction cause a rift in them after they were brought back to life and they didn’t speak for several days. She forgave him, but when she spoke to Terezi later, her forgiveness was called into question. Terezi seemed to think she should be more angry than she was and it was not the last time Terezi told her she deserved better. Disciple disagreed. This was to be a lasting part of their relationship.
Nearer Christmas, the Disciple received a ‘gift’ from the Capitol, as did everyone at the Tribute Tower. These gifts were all something special to them, but made of glass. In the Disciple’s case, it was a book she had written all of Signless’ sermons in and it affected her deeply. She took it very personally, seeing as a mocking of her already fragile belief. Terezi happened upon while she was upset and it was then they had their first real deep conversation about Disciples beliefs. Terezi had found Signless sanctimonious and selfish and the Disciple had taken that as a reflection on her. She found that Terezi liked her as a person, beliefs and all. After Terezi soothed her and led her to break the glass book, they still didn’t quite understand each other,but they were now at least friends. It was here the Disciple had her first pale feelings for Terezi who comforted her and talked her through her pain, but she never acted on it.
And next on her exciting adventures in Panem politics was a visit to her district, District Seven. It was a snowy poor district, filled with immensely grateful citizens. They saw these strange people from the other worlds as saviors, because as long as they were fighting in the arenas, their children were not being reaped and killed each year. It gave her a different perspective on her fighting and she began to see it as a service she did to protect them as much as a terrible thing forced upon her. At least some good came of it.
Her next arena came almost immediately after her return. This one took place in an abandoned museum and she spent most of her time there huddled on the floor with the dinosaur bones and mammoths. It was only after a few weeks with limited resources that she began to wander. It brought her up to the roof of the museum and it was there that she met the Initiate again. Nothing had cooled since he had forced Signless to kill, if anything it had only been made worse.They traded insults and though she didn’t realize he wouldn’t touch her due to a promise made to Terezi, his ashmate and friend, it still seemed like it might end in death. Abruptly,things changed course. The Disciple reached out, spoke of him being better than his future predicted. He could change himself, for his moirail, the Psiionic. She admitted her guilt over everyone’s fate and her own survival was foolish and that they had wanted her to live at the time. For both sides, it was a huge breakthrough, one that had seemed so unlikely..Her words seemed to reach him, eventually, and just when it seemed like things might really change, he fell to his death. Terezi witnessed his fall and the loudspeaker that announced deaths gave her false credit for it. The Disciple, stricken with grief and nausea from being accused a murderer, wandered once more, finally asking for a kill when she was caught in a liquid nitrogen rain.
Back in the Capitol, Terezi accused her of the kill. Immediately hurt, The Disciple explained and Terezi took this leap forward in The Disciple and Initiate’s relationship as a blessing. Not soon after, she invited them both to paint and while it went well for a while, they soon discovered they didn’t speak the same language, not really. They painted differently, believed different things, and generally couldn’t understand how the other thought.
So they avoided one another for a little while, until Terezi, Signless and the Disciple were pulled into a ‘mini arena’. It boasted the ability to have multiple winners, but promised permanent death to losers. Of course, it was a lie, but one everyone who competed believed. Thusly, when Terezi forfeited her win and drowned herself, the Initiate was furious. He’d taught her to swim and it was a death she could have avoided. The Disciple ended up coming in after they fought and found Terezi a wreck, convinced her friend hated her. Soothing her and advising her came naturally and when the conversation ended, the Disciple had a moirail and Terezi felt a bit better about her chances of keeping her friend.
Just to mess with everyone’s heads a little more, they decided to bring in family of the tributes for a week or so, which left the Disciple leading around her long dead lusus, a two tailed white lion. Her encounters with various ‘family members’ left her a bit more confused about the world but with more answers about her alternate life than she started with. It also coincided with her, once more, being a busybody about quadrants not her own. She confronted the Intitiate about talking to Terezi and reassured herself that he didn’t hate Terezi and that they both felt the same way about their past lives romantic entanglements (disgusted). Their family members disappeared before the next arena.
So, with a moirail to support her, she entered her last full arena, though she didn’t know it at the time. While she spent a few days with Karkat and Signless, she went back out in search of Terezi. She didn’t find her, but the rest of the arena proved more exciting than most as she teamed up to battle a huge spider and later got her leg eaten by a strange humanoid creature. Blood loss combined with a lethargy from food found in the arena and a bloodlust from eating insects that left her spinning and not at all in the right state of mind. That, ultimately, ruined her chances of victory and it was only luck that had the Initiate coming by at the right time. She wasn’t sure why he helped her rather than pass her by, but chalked it up to their friend in common. His help couldn’t really win against shock and the amount of blood she’d lost but he made a valiant effort to cauterize her wound and keep her sane, one she appreciated even as it failed. By the end, she was lost in visions of Signless’ execution, full of the same smell of burning flesh, and she simply asked for death when he broke the candle they were using.
Coming back to the Capitol was no treat either. She was left to watch Signless and the Initiate go at each other, murderous from the insects both had consumed and full of hate from a shared past. Even when that faded and she could comfort Signless in person, another blow struck. District Three was firebombed into ashes and rubble for closing their borders against disease. It was in the wake of hearing about that information from their local radio host, Cecil, that she finally seemed to find her footing in her relationship with Signless again. She told him off, he fired back, they settled into pale and he finally seemed like he could handle it.
But not everyone came back from that Arena and the Initiate was left without his moirail. The Disciple meant to come to thank him for his help but ended up comforting and commiserating with his loss that so sharply mirrored her own. Nothing could soothe him for long but there was a strange respect in knowing they had both suffered tragic losses and could come out the other side intact, if scarred. As a mark of how much they’d both changed, he asked her to take him out if he ever became like the Grand Highblood or simply broke, and she promised she would try. She never told anyone this and she never would.
Worst of all, she had to comfort Terezi, who belonged to District three and had met them in person. Rather than a crying Terezi, she found an angry one, one burning for justice and revenge. One who had too much involved in this world.
So, when news of the death of a high ranking official came and Terezi was taken as a suspect, the Disciple was distraught and furious, but privately believed Terezi had done it, or was at least capable of it. It didn’t lessen her fury at her moirail being taken and tortured, but it did rest in the back of her mind. But she didn’t sit idle after Terezi was imprisoned. She and Signless jumped on Initiate’s plan to break her out of jail.
It was a long and convoluted plan to even get out of the Capitol, one that involved Capitol insiders, face paint, and fake pale dates, but they got out, got in, and got her. For six glorious days they were free out in the wilderness. They stuck together, hunted, slept in shifts and it was in the safety of night and sleeping friends that she finally told the Initiate the details of Signless’ execution and his part in it.
Nothing good lasts forever. They were being tracked, of course, and they’re scooped up and brought back to prison. Though they’re tossed in a cell together, they can’t even touch, separated by forcefields. Disciple tries to soothe Terezi through them, but things go from bad to worse when the Initiate is dragged out and never returns. They’re there for a day or two before they’re thrown into the next arena.
The Disciple dies within the first hour and that’s where her story at the Games ends.
How did they change from their canon personality wise (Please explain what caused it to happen?) One of the most important changes in the Disciple through her time in the Games is that she finally let her guilt go. Not completely, but enough to admit to herself that the things she blamed herself for are not her own fault. Psiionic saw her as an idiot, only in this for herself given how she ran, and stupid for going back to Signless though he ‘caused’ their deaths, enslavement and exile. The Initiate saw her as a coward, too scared to save her friends, too desperate to live to face her death. At first the Disciple believes them, agrees, but when she’s forced to fight, she realizes its a lie. Guilt can be a powerful thing and she had let herself wallow in it for sweeps, told herself it was her fault so someone took the blame. It’s only through facing the very person who ordered their deaths that she gets tired of taking that blame. She knows, deep down, there’s nothing more she could have done,that death would have come before saving them and that friends would want her to live. When she finally speaks it, it’s sort of a relief to say it aloud, to shed that idea that she holds these deaths and torture on her shoulder. She comes away better, lighter.
She also sheds a lot of her ideas about highbloods. For all she preaches equality, she’s intensely aware that highbloods are less likely to want to change and more likely to see her as a threat to her way of life. More importantly though, the highbloods were directly responsible for the deaths and enslavement of those she loved and cared for and it was unlikely she would ever move past an idea of revenge. Her slow build with the Initiate, the changing of their relationship from mutual hatred to mutual respect is a change in the Disciple herself as much as the Initiate. She chose to put her hand out to him, to make moves, to talk when they could have ignored each other or fought to the death. It reflects a quality she had buried after the execution, that ability to see the best in people and believe they can be greater. It only blossoms as she gives him and more of her trust, allowing him to help her and fight alongside her as an ally.
In fact, regaining her ability to trust and connect with others was pivotal to her growth as a person. She went into the Games telling herself not to get attached to anyone, a smart thought for a game in which everyone dies every few months by each others hands, but that didn’t work out. Her natural need to have a group of friends, to rely on others and be relied on led her to seek out others and even find a quadrant all her own. She’s slow, staying standoffish and keeping most of her ‘tragic backstory’ to herself at first but opening up happens in degrees. Eventually, by the end of her time there, she trusts her friends so completely that she actively rebels. It had been something she had been loathe to do, afraid of the consequences and
And while not the most important, but ultimately significant, she learned to see herself outside of Signless and his ideals. From the first time Terezi told her she liked Meulin but not Signless, to the way the Disciple reached out to the Initiate long before Signless did, her actions and the people she befriended saw her as a person unique and distinct from him. It was something she couldn't understand at first, having kept his memory close and wrapped herself in ideals to honor him. She was used to being seen as an extension of him, his right hand, his most faithful. She even believed she had been brought to the Capitol to punish him for speaking out against them. It was slowly that she found her own place again, became a person in her own right, not a shadow of him. In a way, finding a quadrantmate of her own was a distinct marker on this road. He had found quadrants outside her and she, too, could find them, find a person who felt pale just for her and no one else. She came to enjoy and appreciate the way they were treated differently, having friends she called her own.
How did they change from their canon physically (Please explain what caused it to happen?): Nothing significant, she has her ears pierced and a tracker embedded in her skin.
