1st Hunger Games

The **1st Hunger Games** took place in 1 ATT. It was the first of the Hunger Games to take place after being established in the Treaty of Treason, signed at the end of the First Rebellion.

## Before the Games

In the lead-up to the 1st Hunger Games, the Capitol initiated the grim tradition by having each District's mayor announce the proclamation from the Treaty of Treason, officially instating the Hunger Games. This declaration was met with widespread shock and outrage in every District, triggering riots that briefly erupted in defiance. Unsurprisingly, these uprisings were brutally quelled, with insurgents being swiftly executed on the spot, and the riots were immediately suppressed.

The Capitol chose the aging Capitol Stadium as the battleground for the Games, a venue that had previously hosted various forms of entertainment, from sporting events to speeches and even occasional performances. Despite bearing the scars of war and showing signs of disrepair, the Capitol opted for only minimal renovations to render the stadium just functional enough for the Hunger Games.

The Reapings unfolded on July 3rd, and in a stark contrast to later years, there were no volunteers among the tributes as the concept had not yet been implemented. The tributes themselves were selected through a hastily executed census, a flawed process that resulted in numerous errors. Many eligible children were inadvertently excluded, while several Districts inaccurately listed the ages of the tributes, causing profound discrepancies. Notably, among the tributes, Tesla Fink of District 5 was reaped at the age of 11 and Heath Williams of District 7 was reaped at the age of 19.

The following tributes were reaped.

After the Reapings, the tributes were transported to the Capitol via cattle car, where they were confined to a severely damaged and unkept warehouse, closely guarded by Peacekeepers. The tributes were subjected to meager sustenance and deplorable living conditions. This cruel environment resulted in the severe illness of seven tributes, three of whom died due to dehydration, one from hunger, and two others dying from unidentified ailments.

This being the inaugural Hunger Games, many of the elements now considered standard were conspicuously absent. There were no mentors to guide the tributes, and they received no training. The arena provided only basic weaponry, such as knives, swords, and clubs, with nothing more at their disposal. The Games themselves commenced on July 10th, one week after the Reapings.
