### Appears in

Hunger Games: Bleeding Hearts

Amethyst is a District 1 tribute in the 125th Hunger Games, as portrayed in Hunger Games: Bleeding Hearts. She is one of the seven Career Tributes in the Games, and she is mostly known for being the sister of the 3rd-place tribute in the 124th Hunger Games, Opal.

### Pre-Games

Amethyst is first mentioned in the story by Lacie during training. She notes that Amethyst, like the other Careers, look cocky before training has even begun.

At lunch on the first day of Training, Lacie overhears Amethyst as she eats with Felix, Victoria, Orion, and Murray. Amethyst asks the two District 2 boys where Ada, the sixth Career, is, but the boys have no idea.

The next day, Tanner observes Amethyst as she spars with Victoria, and he notes that she is an expert with a blade, likely due to her Career training. When Robin sets off an explosion in the Training Center, however, he notes that Amethyst drops her blade in surprise, indicating that she may not be good at fighting under pressure.

Amethyst's Training score is revealed to be a 9, placing her better than Orion and Murray, but below Ada, Felix, and Tanner. Her score puts her on-par with Victoria and Robin; only five tributes score better than her.

Because the Tribute Interviews for each District are conducted in alphabetical order, Amethyst is the first tribute to go. Angelica notes that she is wearing a pearly pink dress and a headress of jewels, and she sits "daintily" across from Ross. Amethyst tells Ross that she's been dreaming of being in the Games since she was a kid. Amethyst also explains her relation to Opal, explaining that she was her sister. She says that after Opal's death, she is her parents' last hope of having a Victor in the family, indicating that her parents raised her for the sole reason of going into the Games.

Although being raised a Career, Amethyst appears to be less arrogant than the others, especially Victoria. When Victoria complains about the poor quality of the District 12 tributes' Interviews, Amethyst argues that the three tributes only have one mentor between the three of them, giving them less insight before the Games.

Victoria also notes that Amethyst is the most "serious" Career tribute, and she presumes that this is due to the pressure from her family.

### The Games

#### The Bloodbath

Amethyst is not seen throughout the entire Bloodbath, as she does not encounter any of the narrators. However, it is known that she entered the Arena between Persephone and Alf, and the three tributes shared a pathway to the Cornucopia. It is assumed that Persephone and Alf allowed Amethyst to enter the Bloodbath without any resistance.

When the Bloodbath is over, Tanner, Victoria, and Felix search for Amethyst after being unable to find her. They come across her body, and it is revealed that she was one of the ten tributes to be killed in the Bloodbath. She was the 9th tribute to die, placing 28th of the 36 tributes.

### Post-Death

After Amethyst's death, many of the tributes are shocked to see her die so early, as she was a Career tribute.

It is later revealed by Orion that he killed Amethyst, and he also claims that she had haunted his dreams following her death, as she had tried to convince him not to kill her.

At the end of the Games, all the killed tributes are modeled into floating weapons. Amethyst is modeled as a sword, and Soren picks her sword up and uses it to fight Victoria. In the end, though, nobody is killed using Amethyst's sword.

In a recap following the Games, Amethyst's death is finally shown. During the Bloodbath, she fought Murray as he attempted to throw her into the Ultimate Solvent. After fighting for a while, Murray manages to disarm Amethyst and kick her sword into the Ultimate Solvent; as Murray holds Amethyst in a headlock, Orion approaches. Amethyst attempts to save herself by telling Murray and Orion that she's "on [their] side", but Orion shoots her with an arrow. Amethyst's last words suggest that she may have been planning to betray her allies at some point in the Games.

Amethyst is not present in Hunger Games: Ultimate Crown due to her death in the Games.
