Katniss normally wears her hair in a long braid down her back. She is thin and not very tall, but is strong for her size from hunting to feed her family in the woods outside of District 12. Katniss is sixteen years old during the 74th Hunger Games, and seventeen years old during the Quarter Quell and the Rebellion.
Thus, the audience doesn't know how old Katniss is when she dies. The only information the audience has about Katniss' future is that she and Peeta have a child together 15 years after their experiences in the Rebellion (at 33 years old) and that five years later, they have a second child.
District 12 has the most Hunger Games victors, with five winners, including Katniss, Peeta, Haymitch, and Lucy Gray. Finnick Odair is the youngest winner in history, winning at just 14 years old.
Answer and Explanation: Gale is eighteen in The Hunger Games, two years older than Katniss. Since the citizens of the Districts cannot be selected after they turn nineteen, this is the last year when Gale can be chosen as a Tribute.
The Awkward Teenage Years of Katniss Everdeen Explained
How old is Prim in the 74th Hunger Games?
So, it's clear at the start of the story that Prim is 12, and she is, therefore, 13 when Katniss is forced to enter the Quarter Quell during The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.
Effie Trinket has a more significant role in The Hunger Games movie than she did in the book, so it's a bit difficult to gauge how old she is in the first film. However, it is safe to say that the District 12 escort is in her thirties.
As the lone District 12 mentor for Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark, it was revealed that Haymitch won the annual Hunger Games event when he was just 16 years old.
He is not known to have ever married, or even been romantic with another woman after her. However, in the films he occasionally engaged in light flirtation with Effie Trinket, and the two kissed in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 2.
Finnick was able to weave nets out of vines he'd found in the arena, entangling opponents before spearing them with his new weapon. In a matter of days, he was crowned the victor.
It's only implied that they get it on via snuggling and other affectionate acts in close quarters — but if you have read the book, they really imply that they took their relationship to the next level.
Peeta is the same age as Katniss, making him 16 years old in The Hunger Games and 17-18 in Catching Fire and Mockingjay. Peeta is of "medium height, stocky build" and has "ashy blond hair that falls in waves over his forehead." He has blue eyes.
l Peeta did it so that the citizens of the Capitol would be unhappy with President Snow/the Gamemakers. Because of course they would be outraged if they were going to kill one of their favourite victors AND her unborn child.
Sisterly bond: Prim is Katniss's younger sister, and they share a close bond. As the older sister, Katniss has taken on the responsibility of caring for Prim ever since their father died and their mother became emotionally distant.
In the wild, the katniss plant is found in wetlands. Its leaves are edible, though it's most valued for its roots: large, nutritious tubers whose taste is comparable to a sweet potato. Katniss was once a staple food of Native Americans, especially in the Northwest (where they dug up the plant with their toes).
While, throughout the series, there's some chemistry between the two, nothing ever comes of the tension in Suzanne Collins' novels. Beyond the kiss, nothing happened between the two in the movies either.
Haymitch Abernathy was born 40 years prior to the 74th Hunger Games, during the same year the 34th Hunger Games were held. There is no information regarding his childhood and early teenage years, although it is known that he is from the Seam of District 12, and had a younger brother, a mother, and a girlfriend.
While in the woods, Haymitch runs into three career tributes. He's outmanned but not outgunned as he quickly kills two of them with his knife. The final tribute manages to disarm him, and as they go in for the kill fellow District 12 tribute Maysilee Donner kills the career with a dart.
With the last killing occuring before an hour had even passed, these games shocked the Capitol audience and are the quickest in the history of the games.
The following year after Lucy Gray Baird's victory, another female tribute emerged as the Hunger Games winner. Mags Flanagan became the first victor from District 4, living off of nuts and her survival skills by creating fishhooks. She was also the first victor to move to Victor's Village before serving as a mentor.
Answer and Explanation: Finnick Odair is 24 in Catching Fire. He was 14 when he won the 65th Hunger Games, ten years before the events of Catching Fire. A skilled fighter who is adept at surviving seemingly unbeatable odds, he is one of the Capitol citizens' favorite Victors.
Johanna Mason, from District 7 and another major character during the revolution, is around the same age as Finnick and Annie. Johanna won the 71st Hunger Games when she was 17 years old, meaning that she's around 21 or 22 old during Catching Fire and Mockingjay.
Rue. Rue is the youngest tribute of the 74th Hunger Games, at only 12 years old. She is small and very smart, and survives the first few days in the arena by hiding in trees. She and Katniss become allies after Rue points out a Tracker Jacker nest, which Katniss avoids and then uses to take out several Career tributes.
