Aella Rogue

Aella Rogue is the victor of the 65th Annual Hunger Games, a businesswoman, and eventually, politician and president of Panem. She fights with the Capitol army during the Second Rebellion.

Early Life
Aella Artemesia Rogue was the product of a one-night stand between 16-year-old Viktoria Rogue and a peacekeeper-in-training in District 2. Reckless Viktoria seldom took precautions when it came to her sex life, despite her immense pressure by her family to take part in the Games. Eight months after her daughter was born, she was reaped with no volunteer to take her place.

Postpartum body conditions interfered with her potential. There was once a time where Viktoria Rogue was the talk of the town - she was the ideal tribute. She was fit, strong, and fast. Unfortunately, she lost all of her center after her daughter was born. Viktoria ultimately placed sixth in the 48th Annual Hunger Games - by no means a bad ranking, but certainly not enough to impress the highly expectant family she had back at home.

Aella was raised by her Uncle Titan from the time her mother was reaped to the time she was seventeen. Titan Rogue was a hard but loving man, though he, like so many others, was clouded by the idea of the Hunger Games. He loved his niece - she was practically his daughter - but like so many others, he was raised to find honor in serving as tribute in the games. He was 26 when he took on the role as Aella's father figure, and vowed that, should she go into the games, she would come back out.

From the age of six, Aella was trained vigorously in combat, survival skills, and general athletics. Titan loved Viktoria, but he would never let Aella shame District 2 the way her mother did. He so desperately wanted for her to bring glory to the district under the Rogue name - and when she turned sixteen, she finally did.

When fourteen-year-old Valorie Styx was reaped, Aella's impulse drove her to volunteer before she even knew what she was doing. Although it was on a whim, her uncle could not have been prouder. She was ready, they both knew it. She did not say goodbye to him in the Justice Building before she was sent off - she told him she knew she would come back.

Training
Aella, as expected, formed an alliance with her district partner, Cassian Argent, along with the tributes from districts 1 and 4 - respectively, Blaise, Lace, Cress, and Daphne. They trained together, and, though their intentions were all genuine in terms of alliance, Aella refused to let her guard down around them... she could never be sure.

The careers were certainly an intimidating pack - all skilled in weaponry, fast, and strong. Aella showed off her sword and spear expertise throughout training, along with her dangerously immaculate knowledge of poisons. She felt no remorse shooting the weaker tributes malicious smirks, that had I'm going to kill you painted all over her lips.

Aella received a score of 11 during her private training session, the highest of all 24 tributes. She began by wielding two swords in the simulation, effortlessly making it through. She then threw some knives, it would normally be quite banal, but she was completely lethal. Spinning around, throwing backwards, she appeared to meet the bullseye effortlessly each time. She was extremely polite to the gamemakers - she knew she needed them on her side.

The interview
Aella's mentor made clear that she needed to bring out the best in herself for her interview. This would be the first - and maybe the only - time people would truly meet her, and she needed to rake in as many sponsors as possible. She ultimately went for a dangerous persona, playing off of the aggression and eagerness she already had.

The arena
The 65th Annual Hunger Games would go down as one of the bloodiest games in history, thanks to Aella Rogue. A city in shambles, the cornucopia was located in the center of the arena in an empty city street. The buildings were all abandoned and collapsed, leaving little room for hiding and hardly any option for natural resources. As soon as the metal plate rose into the arena, she prayed she'd charmed enough during her interview to gain some sponsors.

The tributes were dressed in

During the bloodbath, Aella immediately got her hands on a backpack and a sword before making her way to the other careers. As usual, the pack dominated the bloodbath, collectively killing seven tributes - two at the hand of Aella. She quickly secured her spot as the most feared tribute among her peers; she was merciless and had an edge to her that the others didn't.

After the bloodbath, Aella quickly established herself as the acting leader of the alliance. She barked orders and called the shots, only ever questioned by Blaise, the boy from District 1. Something about him made her uneasy; she did not like having her authority questioned, even at the age of seventeen. Although his defiance made her uneasy, Aella had something else planned.

That night, she took the first - and only - watch. She knew that, eventually, they would all have to either part ways or fight to the death anyway, and she wasn't interested in waiting it out that long. While everyone slept, she quietly slit their throats and took their supplies. She only spared Blaise, hoping that her act of authority would show him who was boss. Her murder of her district partner, Cassian, was something everyone at him was shocked over - but her intriguing road to victory seemed to make them forget by the time she made it home.

She set off into the night, now alone for the remainder of the games. Alone, but never scared. [...]

After the Games
After the games, Aella took some time alone in the Victor's Village to recharge before her Victory Tour. Her tour was controversial; it was different throughout the districts. the Capitol and the Career Districts could not have been more proud of the young victor, but the other districts spat on the street and pumped their fists in the air upon her arrival. Their hatred toward her left no dent in her confidence, she simply looked down upon their disrespect to their country.

Aella returned to the Capitol as a tribute mentor in the 66th games. She continued to mentor, every year until the Quarter Quell. From the 66th-71st games, Aella split her time between the Capitol and District 2 - she always returned to mentor for the games, and she periodically came for interviews or publicity events (she was a fan favorite tribute). Back home, she opened a training facility for future tributes under her name - Rogue Warriors - and spent countless hours training children and teaching them strategies - not only for combat, but for crucial survival skills.

When Mikael Orimura was reaped for the 71st Games, everything changed. Aella was, as usual, in charge of mentoring him and his district partner, Avita Valerius. The training process was not out of the ordinary, but after the tributes were sent off into the arena, ... finish later u lazy fuck

After the 71st games, she decided to expand her business even further - she opened another branch of Rogue Warriors in the Capitol. When word carried back to the districts about her new facility, many people deemed it anticlimactic... what benefit would a privileged Capitolite have in training? None. It was purely cosmetic, but nevertheless another way for Aella to maintain her status as the Capitol's beloved victor.

Leaving her home district behind, Aella became a full-time Capitol citizen. Though she was never one for parties, she could often be found at high class events anyway. She knew her appearances would boost morale and keep the image of her face in the back of people's minds, which proved to be important as she continued to climb the social ladder. Through her mysterious, quiet nature, she became one of the Capitol's most sought after celebrities. Already a favorite victor, she built her reputation even higher as a mentor and CEO and founder of Rogue Warriors. She still continued to mentor throughout the rest of the games, stopping after the Quarter Quell to pursue politics.

The Second Rebellion
After the Quarter Quell, Aella ran for president, with Clio Acosta as her vice president. They won, and under their rule, Panem began to transform into a completely different nation - many would remember it as Rogue's Reign of Terror - a nickname coined by the rebels of District 13. Panem was a dark, dark place now, and the impending war was bloody and brutal.

Aella did everything in her power to push through her aversion to other people in her effort to be the best president possible. During her time in office, she communicated regularly with Nephele Lawrencium - the Capitol's Rose - and to regulate war efforts and carry out their plans as swiftly and faultlessly as possible. Aella, Clio, Nephele, and *oomf* were a force to be reckoned with.

Although she enjoyed calling the shots in politics, Aella would never betray the battlefield. Now a figure of utmost importance, she had a huge squadron of peacekeepers dedicated only to her protection in battle. She was heavily armored and highly advanced in battle, a true force. Even in the midst of battle, she was still seemingly untouchable.

For the citizens still loyal to the nation of Panem, respect and admiration for Aella only grew more. A dedicated president, she was able to make "impossible" decisions for the better of the nation. Her intelligence in office was completely paralleled to her skill in battle, and her jack-of-all-trades mentality only made the love in people's hearts grow stronger.

Ever since she established Rogue Warriors in the Capitol, the public referred to her as "The Queen" - there seemed to be nothing she couldn't do. She won the Hunger Games and made it look easy, she opened a successful business in her home district and in the Capitol all the while still mentoring successful tributes over the decade. She then went on to become president of the nation. 27 years old at the start of the Second Rebellion, and Aella Rogue was building a new empire - and she would stop at nothing to ensure its success.

On the other side of the nation, safe underground, the rebels stationed in District 13 used her regal alias as an insult. A dictatorship was not what they wanted, in fact, they had been working tirelessly for years to execute a proper rebellion to retaliate against the Capitol's unjust rule, once again. Watching the Games from afar, they were waiting for the perfect time to strike out against Panem. They watched the brainwashed, blinded districts bow down to this "queen," and they wanted nothing more than to bring her down. They knew her, they watched her win the Games, and they did not underestimate the lengths which she would take to maintain security throughout the Capitol and the districts that remained unwaveringly loyal to her authority - mainly Districts 1, 2, and 4.

Physical Appearance
Aella is a young woman with a sculpted face, strong chin, dark hair, and green eyes. She is unparalleled in her beauty, and when needed, she takes advantage of this. Throughout the years, her styles change drastically. Sometimes - primarily during her games and the years shortly after - she's seen with intricate warrior braids, and other times, her hair is pulled back into a slick ponytail. Sometimes, it is worn down and pin-straight - she lets her hair loose much more often after her election as president of Panem.

Her whole life, Aella has had an edgy sense of style. She's usually seen wearing dark colors and clunky boots, with jackets of leather and dark denim. She loves black leather pants and tight, risqué black dresses. She isn't afraid to show skin, and has tattoos on her back and arms.

Titan Rogue
Aella's Uncle Titan was the only parental figure she had in life. Though she addressed him as her uncle, he was more of a father to her. He taught her everything she knew - in combat and in life - from a young age, and she'd always looked up to him.

Childhood stuff [...]

After Aella made her full move to the Capitol, she left her uncle in charge of the District 2 Rogue Warriors facility.

Nero Orimura
After Aella sent Mika into the 71st Games, she received a letter from his father, claiming that she was also his child. As a popular celebrity, she had every reason to believe it was a lie, but in his letter, he spoke of her mother - he spoke of Viktoria Rogue in ways only her uncle ever had.

But Aella was not naive, and certainly not stupid. What perfect timing was it for her biological father to claim her when he might be losing his other child - Aella felt as if she was only a pawn to him, that he only wanted to know her now that she'd made something of herself.

She ignored his letter, but met him eventually - she accompanied Mika on his Victory Tour, where Nero sent him off.

Mika Orimura
Aella first met Mika when they were in school - she was seven years his senior, but had no problem bullying him into corners and silencing him. For no reason other than that he was small and "it was fun," she made his life in elementary school a living hell.

Aella, truthfully, didn't really remember him, not even when he was reaped for the 71st Games under her mentorship. During his training, the two certainly butted heads a lot - but he was young; Aella had hope that he would grow into himself and be more like her - less reckless, more clever, and unwaveringly patriotic. She send him into the arena with hope. Though she had a rough edge, she still put her all into training him.

When he came out of the games alive, Aella felt obligated to tell him she was his sister. As expected, he was in disbelief. She was, for once in her life, exhilarated; perhaps she would be able to make something of him. As two career victors, siblings nonetheless, they had the potential to be such a force. Mika felt differently, he was terrified of Aella, and the last thing he wanted was to be related to her.

After his time in the Capitol as a victor, the two parted ways until it was time for his Victory Tour. Aella felt extra pressure to ensure that his tour was flawless - word had gotten out that her and Mika were long lost siblings, and anything he may have said or done would now reflect on her, double - not only as his mentor, but as his sister.

And of course, he ruined it. Aella had been careful to write out his speeches for him; she didn't fully trust his own words. Regardless of where his true allegiance was, it was important for him to express his gratitude for the Capitol and the Games. She knew that, as did he. But during one of his speeches in District 12, he slipped up and spoke out overtly against the games, and in turn, against Panem. His behavior was extremely dangerous, and Aella was infuriated. She sent peacekeepers onstage immediately to drag him off, but the damage was already done. The citizens in the audience were howling and cheering, but Aella didn't both to pay attention to whatever became of them. As soon as the door to the Justice Building was closed behind them, she pushed the peacekeepers out of the way and drove her brother into a corner, screaming at him and grabbing him by the collar. Any doubts she had about him were now confirmed.

Aella and Mika, from here forward, only met on the battlefield throughout the Second Rebellion. At the end of the final battle, Aella fatally shot her brother.
