In The Hunger Games books and film series adaptations, Katniss Everdeen is a young teenage girl living in the dystopic District 12 of Panem, an impoverished and politically sadistic future version of North America.
Katniss becomes a tribute in The Hunger Games, a yearly event in which kids from various districts are pitted against each other in a fight to the death.
Going in place of her little sister, Katniss is able to find friends in her mentor, Haymitch Abernathy, and her love interest and ally, Peeta Mellark. Katniss is a determined and resourceful character, and one who threatens to change the whole state of her world.
