Tosia is curled in a ball on the seat next to him. She’s been staring at Katniss since she and Peeta got on the train. Riff doesn’t know if she’s trying to eat Katniss’ shrike or if she just doesn’t trust her. Either way, she can’t eat the bird. Riff tears his attention away from his daemon to focus on Katniss. She’s the first person in District Twelve to volunteer since he did. He gets why she did it, but he also knows the chances of her survival are slim. He leans back in his seat a bit and rubs behind Tosia’s ears.

“You got a plan?” He likes to ask all the tributes that. “For once you’re in there?” Most of them don’t. He doesn’t think Katniss will, either. But maybe she’ll surprise him. He doubts it, but maybe it’ll happen.

riff

riff is a smuggler with a small network of people working for him. he's force sensitive and he's managed to figure out the general logistics of how the force works through trial and error. riff's gang, the jets, are the only ones that know riff is force sensitive. they call themselves the jets because they're fast and quick and pretty good at evading the law. they all have a tattoo somewhere of either a j or the silhouette of riff's ship. the sharks are a group that's sort of a smuggling group. they're more well off than riff and the jets, but not by much. they just want the jets to stop terrorizing the galaxy with their escapades. they get into fights a lot and the local authorities consider both groups an equal nuisance.

dodge

dodge is force sensitive and mostly does odd jobs around the outer rim. he has a small ship that he'll occasionally smuggle with but he mostly keeps to himself. he's trying to find and kill the bounty hunter that killed his older sister, dayna. while he tends to stick to small jobs in the outer rim, he will venture into the more expensive cities if he's paid well for it.

art

in the early days of the republic, there was a jedi known as art donaldson. he was a brilliant jedi knight, and those that knew him said he was one of the best jedi they had ever seen. when order sixty six was executed, art donaldson disappeared. the jedi that survived the purge assumed that he’d gone into hiding as they had. and then, a year after the execution of order sixty six, there were whispers of a new sith lord attacking camps in the outer rim. darth kyros, they call him. there aren’t typically survivors of his attacks, so the information on him is limited. all that’s known about him is that he’s dangerous and not someone to be crossed. somehow, a former jedi manages to survive an attack. darth kyros is art donaldson, he says. it sounds impossible. but another former jedi comes forward and says the same thing. after at least five have agreed, there can be no more denying it. art donaldson must be returned to the light side of the force. it takes a long time, but he is eventually returned to the light. art doesn’t talk about his time as darth kyros. if pressed for information, he says that the sith captured and brainwashed him until he broke. he becomes a member of the rebellion and is a valuable asset when it comes time to target the death star.

connor

connor is a jedi padawan. he’s an extremely volatile jedi padawan. he doesn’t have control of his emotions yet and he lashes out in anger a lot more than his master would like. the other masters are worried. the other padawans fear his anger and mock his lack of control. he’s too susceptible to the dark side, the masters say. he must get his emotions under control. connor doesn’t know if he can do that, but he’s not really willing to try. eventually, he is banished from the jedi order. he makes a living in the outer rim as best he can. when the rebellion starts, he keeps his head down. he doesn’t want to get dragged back into the order. they didn’t want him, after all.

paul

paul was fast on the rise to become a jedi knight, but that all changed when his family was slaughtered by a traitorous jedi. only paul and his mother survived. he swore revenge on the jedi that had killed his family and on the order. he and his mother fled to the outer rim, where paul quickly fell to the dark side of the force. his mother encouraged this, urging him on to become more and more powerful. he gained a small following of those that had been wronged by the jedi order in the past and he travels the galaxy in search of any jedi unlucky enough to stand in his way.

six of crows/grishaverse

riff

riff has a small gang called the jets that he typically runs with. he's nowhere near as infamous as kaz, but he has a reputation for being wily and not getting caught. he also has a reputation for being an asshole, but whether or not that's true is yet to be determined. he runs with the dregs on occasion but he mostly sticks to the jets.

dodge

dodge is a street magician in ketterdam. he goes to the local university and is trying to find the merchant that is responsible for his sister's death. he runs with the dregs occasionally but typically tends to work for whoever pays him the best. dodge is a shadow summoner that’s aware of his abilities. he’s very proficient with them, and he doesn’t try to hide his abilities from those he works with.

connor

connor was taken to the little palace at age five. he’s made aware of his abilities and what they entail, and he sets to training and learning about the history of ravka. he’s a heartrender that sometimes has issues getting his temper under control, but he’s good in a fight and he’s well known for his knowledge of ravkan history and literature from all over the world. he’s not the friendliest of people—being from kerch tends to lead to prejudices—but connor has a reputation for being scary when he’s angry, so it works out. when he’s seventeen, he’s sent on a mission to kerch. he’s tasked with finding information on the merchant council, to see if any of them are selling jurda parem to the fjerdans. he works undercover at the bandycat. he hates it, but it’s a good place to be in order to hear any secrets.

art

art is a tidemaker indentured to patrick zweig. he was sent to kerch by the little palace to see if any of the merchant council was selling grisha secrets to ravka’s enemies. unfortunately, his ship was captured by kerch slavers on the way there and art was sold to the house of snow. he spends two years there. he’s absolutely miserable and he wants nothing more than to return to ravka. when his indenture is bought by patrick zweig, art knows that’s no longer possible. patrick is one of art’s least favorite clients. he’s a rich merchant that spends his money on whatever he wants and he doesn’t like sharing. art’s indenture with the house of snow is ended, but his indenture with patrick starts the next day. patrick’s wife, tashi, is just as bad as her husband. art can’t escape, because patrick has eyes everywhere and tashi seems to know what he’s planning before art himself even knows. he wants, desperately, to escape, but he doesn’t know where he’ll go if he gets out of ketterdam. he can’t return to ravka as a failure, but he can’t stay in kerch, either.

the hunger games

riff

district twelve. victor. volunteered. here

art

district four. victor. reaped. here

connor

district twelve. died in the arena. reaped. connor is the son of the mayor in district twelve. he's not very well liked by anyone and he tends to wander around the district until nightfall. there are rumors he's addicted to morphling, but no one knows for sure. he's reaped at seventeen and dies in the arena, poisoned with nightlock by a tribute from district seven.

dodge

district ten. victor. volunteered. dodge's sister dayna was reaped and killed in the arena when dodge was sixteen. he wanted to volunteer the next year, but his mother stopped him before he could. he volunteers at eighteen instead, before they can even call the name of the male tribute. he won by cornering the final tribute and dropping a rock on his head. he returns to district ten to mentor, but he never stops plotting to kill snow. the second he hears about the rebellion, he joins.

jack twist

district ten. reaped. victor. jack is reaped at eighteen. he quickly becomes a capitol favorite, thanks to his natural charm and good looks. he racks up thousands of sponsors and donations. he narrowly avoids death at the hands of a tribute from district two and manages to win the games by using the tribute's weapon against him. he returns to district ten and mentors tribute after tribute until the capitol calls him back. they want him to work in the academy, they tell him. they want him to train the future generation of presidents and capitol elite. he doesn't know why. but he knows he can't refuse, so he moves and spends the rest of his life working for the capitol. but when the rebellion comes around, jack is one of the first to join the ranks.

jack kelly

district twelve. reaped. supposedly died in the arena, survived. jack kelly is reaped from district twelve. he’s well liked by the capitol and the fact that he makes it to the final four tributes does absolutely nothing to quell the capitol’s love for him. unfortunately, he’s killed by a tribute from district two and the capitol forgets about him relatively quickly, as they’re wont to do. at least, that’s what the story is. in truth, jack kelly had been incredibly outspoken against the games. he’d nearly succeeded in starting a rebellion. the capitol couldn’t have that. they staged his death and when he regained consciousness, he was told that he’d be working for the gamemakers. he hates it, but he doesn’t see any way out of it. so he works for the gamemakers and hopes for a day that a rebellion will come.
