Astraea Ashlar

 is a female citizen of District 2. She is a Victor, as she won the 69th Hunger Games. She was also reaped as a tribute in the 75th Hunger Games representing District 2. Her District partner is Albion Danbury.

Personality
Astraea is a quiet woman, keeping her thoughts and feelings to herself. She is self-sufficient, having lived alone since her victory six years ago. She enjoys fishing, baking, drinking wine and writing books, suggesting that when she is in a comfortable and relaxed environment, she can be quite creative.

Astraea has a reputation as a harbinger of justice, which is true to some extent. She won't hesitate to kill anyone who tries to harm/kill her or harms/kills her loved ones, even if the person or people trying to kill/harm is/are related to her. However, whilst she does acknowledge her reputation as "The Double Avenger", she doesn't take it to heart. She tries her best to avoid reminders of Dolosia, as they make her feel uncomfortable.

Astraea will socialise with others and co-operate with them, but due to her fear of betrayal, she will be wary of those she meets. She's also scared of falling in love again.

Fears

 * Betrayal: Astraea fears being betrayed by anyone she knows or is close to, due to her late twin sister Dolosia betraying the family by murdering their father and betraying her by killing her crush during her first Games.


 * Falling in love: Astraea doesn't want to fall in love again, since the girl she had feelings for was killed by her sister. She fears that if she falls in love again, the person she's in love with will die.


 * Reminders of Dolosia: This isn't really a fear of Astraea's; it's more of a way to make her feel uncomfortable. Anything that reminds Astraea of Dolosia will bring back painful memories. This does include daggers, but she will use them if she has to defend herself.

Strengths
Fishing, melee combat, poison knowledge

Weaknesses
Strength, her fear of betrayal, being reminded of Dolosia

Before the Games
Astraea was the younger of a pair of twins born to Stanislaus and Hyacinth Ashlar on New Year's Day 53ADD. The Ashlars were a lineage that was famous for producing victors, tributes, celebrities and politicians and its pro-Capitol/Hunger Games stance. Because of this, Astraea and Dolosia were taught these views (however, by the 75th Hunger Games, Astraea's views may have changed).

Sometime prior to Astraea volunteering for the Games, Stanislaus was found brutally murdered. Next to his body was a dagger that had been coated in an orange poison.

Hoping to bring some comfort to her broken and distraught family minus a missing Dolosia (her disappearance would later be explained), Astraea volunteered for the 69th Hunger Games at the age of 16. Her father's murder was heavily-publicised, but Astraea tried to block this out so she could concentrate on the Games.

Little did she know that her father's murderer was in the Games as well, representing a different district.

The Games
Astraea found out that Dolosia was the District 12 female tribute. When Astraea tried to ask her about why she had disappeared in the first place and why she went to District 12, Dolosia was deliberately vague with her answers or she abruptly changed the topic of the conversation. Dolosia turned down Astraea's invitation to join the Careers, but they compromised on a truce.

Astraea was suspicious, but because of the chaos of the preparation for the Games, her mind was occupied with that rather than investigating Dolosia further.

Astraea joined the Careers. It's unknown what her training score was.

At some point, Astraea fell in love with her fellow ally, the District 1 female. They agreed to a showmance, in the hopes that they could help bring in more sponsors and add to the supplies that the Careers had. Before Astraea could act on her feelings, she woke up one morning to find that the District 1 female's throat was slit. The weapon used to slit the girl's throat was a poison-coated dagger -- the same method used to kill her father.

It was after this discovery when Astraea finally connected both murders to Dolosia.

This set the stage for the finale and the confrontation between the twin sisters. Dolosia had murdered their father after an argument had turned violent. To escape persecution in District 2, she travelled to District 12. When she arrived in District 12, she was recognised by authorities as being a wanted criminal -- as she was a suspect in her father's murder (Astraea didn't harbour any hatred for her at that time because she didn't believe that Dolosia was the murderer). Dolosia pleaded with them that she would volunteer for the Games, so there was no need to extradite her. The authorities accepted her plea. Dolosia's actions led to Astraea volunteering for the Games.

Dolosia was also the one who murdered the District 1 female, due to both murders being committed with a dagger coated in poison. Realising that Astraea had connected the dots, Dolosia confessed to both murders.

Having lost control of her emotions and her sanity, Astraea fought her twin sister in one of the most emotionally charged finales in the history of the Games. Dolosia tried to explain herself further; their father had been an unreasonable man who wouldn't listen to her whatsoever and that showmances were both fake and futile since only one tribute could win.

Astraea didn't listen to her.

When Astraea had the upper hand in the fight, she killed Dolosia with her own modus operandi. She stabbed Dolosia in the heart with the poison-coated dagger. After three hours, Astraea was declared the victor.

Aftermath
Astraea was celebrated by the Capitol and District 2 as a champion of justice, which was reflected on her Victory Tour poster. She gained the epithet "The Double Avenger" as she executed the person responsible for the murders of two of her loved ones.

However, she had ultimately failed in helping her family feel any better. She was too emotionally drained from the trauma of having to execute her twin sister to enjoy her Victory Tour and the celebrations held in her honour in The Capitol. All she can remember from her Victory Tour is getting extremely drunk and blacking out.

After her Victory Tour, Astraea lived alone. Hoping to live a peaceful, quiet life, she took up many hobbies as outlets to deal with her pain; such as fishing in any pond or lake she could find, baking, tasting and drinking wine and writing books.

Before the Games
Astraea volunteered for the 75th Hunger Games. The quell "twist" that year required the tributes to be reaped from the existing pool of Victors. The tributes didn't know it at the time, but President Snow rigged the Quell to silence rebellious Victors. Astraea wasn't originally among the targeted, as she volunteered and was not reaped. Astraea's interview before the Games went well, and was quite uneventful.
