Barrett Wane

 is a male citizen of District 7. He is a Victor, as he won the 72nd Hunger Games. He was also reaped as a tribute in the 75th Hunger Games representing District 7. His District partner is Lindsay Kimura.

Personality
Barrett is an intelligent young man who aspires to follow in his mother's footsteps and become a detective. He is a logical thinker and an excellent strategist; most of the time his deduction skills are correct/on-point. He can be friendly and sociable, but he's careful as to who he trusts and/or creates bonds with. This is because he doesn't think that he'll ever meet someone like Dorothea again.

Fears

 * His mother being harmed or dying.
 * In Barrett's eyes, his mother's well-being represents the stability in his life. Because he desires to live a normal life, he wants everything to be normal. If his mother is harmed or killed, he fears that he'll lose any sense of stability.

Strengths
Intelligence and reasoning, aim, strategies

Weaknesses
Swimming, melee combat -- he has a preference for long-range combat although he will use a katana as his secondary weapon, fishing

Before the Games

 * Barrett was reaped, leaving his mother behind.
 * His district partner was the Mayor's daughter, Dorothea, who was a year older than him.
 * Once in the Capitol, the two got to know each other. Following their mentor's advice, Barrett allied with Dorothea - combining his intelligence with her proficiency with a bow and arrow. The two were a dynamic duo, and many in the Capitol thought that they were in a showmance, but this was not the case. He simply befriended her.

The Games

 * The pair made it out of the blood bath unscathed. They managed to get a bow with arrows, a supply bag, and a knife. Dorothea claimed the bow, while Barrett settled for the knife. They survived the first several days without incident.
 * On day 5, Dorothea took down two tributes -- the District 3 male and District 5 female -- with her bow. Barrett was coming up with plans to gain more food and supplies.
 * Things started to go wrong, creating a chain of events that would ultimately lead to the finale -- Dorothea suggested that they should be ambitious and raid the supplies of the Careers, who were stationed at a warehouse and watchtower. Barrett tried to warn her, but Dorothea dismissed this warning, telling Barrett that she had faith in his intelligence and she wanted him to guide her.
 * Barrett eventually agreed to go along with the raid, which they decided would take place the following morning.
 * When morning came, however, Dorothea was missing. Barrett had no choice but to track her down. To do this, he used the skills he was taught by his mother to deduce where she could have been taken. He determined that she couldn't have just left him since she was determined to carry out the raid with Barrett by her side. Footage of Barrett putting his intelligence and reasoning skills to use was shown throughout Panem, earning him the epithet "Boy Detective" and sealing his place in Hunger Games history before the victor was even determined.
 * His reasoning was spot on -- he ruled out the warehouse and watchtowers as red herrings and if he had visited them, he would have died.
 * Dorothea was kidnapped by the District 1 male, who was the Career Leader, and taken to a mountain. He revealed that he was tired of everyone constantly demanding from him -- at home and in the Games, driving him to an anger-fuelled insanity. Therefore, he planned on betraying the remaining the Careers.
 * Barrett used his skills once more to get information out of the District 1 male, hoping to calm him down so he would release Dorothea from his grasp. The District 1 male revealed how he was able to track down Barrett and Dorothea; he had night-vision goggles. As it was the duo and the Careers left in the arena, it didn't take long for him to find them. He took Dorothea because he thought that she was the threat out of the two, and that by taking her, he could draw out Barrett as well and kill him.
 * The District 1 male carried on explaining his plan and how he intended on betraying the remaining Careers -- once Dorothea and Barrett were dead, he would blow up the warehouses and watchtowers as he rigged them with explosives. The explosives were a gift from one of his sponsors. With one press of a button, which came with the explosives, the remaining Careers would be killed in the explosions. With everyone dead because of his plan, he would then be declared the victor.
 * After his explanation, he pushed Dorothea off the face of the mountain, sending her to her instant death. Barrett knew he couldn't defeat the District 1 male in a physical fight, so he relied once more on his intelligence to think of a plan as to eliminate the District 1 male quickly.
 * During the confrontation, the button was pressed and the warehouse and watchtowers were blown up, followed by the sound of the cannons of everyone who was inside the warehouse and watchtowers. As the District 1 was distracted by what he had done, Barrett grabbed Dorothea's bow and arrow and shot him in the head. The District 1 male fell off the mountain, and Barrett was declared the victor after one of the quickest finales ever.

Aftermath

 * Ever since his victory, Barrett has helped out his mother at her detective agency. In his spare time, he practices archery. He is revered throughout District 7 and the Capitol for his intelligence and for being one of the youngest victors ever, but he would rather forget about it. He desires to live a normal, peaceful life.

Before the Games
Barrett was reaped into 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. Being someone who doesn't like to rock the boat, Barrett has always gone with the Capitol's will, essentially siding with them and being seen as a loyalist. As such, he was not one of the targeted Victors in the 75th Games.
