Katniss ends up as a tribute in the 74th Hunger Games by volunteering for her twelve year old sister, Primrose.
Katniss teamed up with Rue, the girl tribute from district eleven, first.
The female tribute was killed in the "bloodbath" at the Cornucopia at the beginning while the male tribute was killed by being stabbed in the stomach with a spear by Cato after Katniss returned to the Cornucopia to get supplies but ended up blowing them up. Both of the District 3 tributes are unnamed
Because the tribute starts a fire in the middle of the night. The flames could attract the Careers or any other blood thirsty tribute
The career tributes usually come from districts 1-4, but in the Hunger Games movie, the career tributes are the District 1 tributes, the District 2 tributes, the District 3 male, and the District 4 female. In Catching Fire, the careers are Cashmere, Gloss, Enobaria, and Brutus.
The sound of a tribute building a fire.
*Spoiler Alert* President Snow is killed by Katniss, and Katniss ends up with Peeta in the end, after Peeta becomes normal again, because in the beginning he goes kinda psycho.
From memory, she woke up because she heard a noise, just to notice that some dumb tribute has lit a fire at night. A few minutes later, Katniss hears a scream and stays very quiet while the careers walk directly under her.
Cato had a long and painful death. When he came through the forest and running at the Cornucopia, Katniss attempted to shoot him with an arrow but hit his body protector. Then the dangerous muttation wolves came and Cato scaled the Cornucopia. Each one had the traits of a dead tribute. Such as Glimmer's mutt, it had blonde hair and her sea green eyes. Katniss pushed Cato off and into the pack who nibbled him to a chunk of meat. Katniss and Peeta returned to their cave expecting him to die but when the muttations left Katniss had to shoot her final arrow at Cato and plunged it into his head
SPOILER: Peeta is brainwashed by President Snow. But is returned to District 13 to Katniss. He tries to kill Katniss and calls her a mutt. So, they make peeta look back in the past with Katniss and he remembers everything. therefore, they really get married and have kids.
in the first book, she stands out as a tribute. people notice her because of her unique personality and they like it. katniss is one of the favorite tributes. in later books, they look up to her as a symbol of hope in the rebellion, while the government sees her as a threat to panem.
because he gets stronger and ends up becoming alive
She wants to see what the "brave" Cato is afraid of and then she regrets it cause she ends up being chased by mutts.
