Setting
The revolutionary war of the District rebels vs. The Capitol had been waging for 6 years, with a Capitol victory inevitable. Rebel forces had been all but wiped out. As penance for the revolution, the Capitol instilled the first ever Hunger Games as a means to punish the districts and remind them that the Capitol were an unstoppable force they could not riot against. President Imperiosa Ironsquall delivered the nation-wide televised announcement.
The official setting description, as written by Lalia, reads as follows:
- Despite the commanders of the rebellion having been killed or captured, lined up in front of firing squads or locked away for extensive questioning, it still didn't feel like punishment enough. If the soldiers of those treasonous forces had been afraid of their own deaths then they wouldn't have taken up arms. Instead they would have stayed behind with their families, with their husbands, their wives... their children.
- Defeat was not enough. The traitors needed to feel true regret, the kind that would be passed down from generation to generation and never be forgotten.
- "In penance for their uprising, each district shall offer up a male and a female between the ages of twelve and eighteen." The announcement of the Treaty of Treason was made only weeks before the first Hunger Games was set to take place. It was a public declaration that the war was over, as if it were a simple thing with a simple end. While the president's speech was taking place, airing on every television across Panem, the most stubborn of rebel forces were still refusing to surrender — even in the wake of the bombs that had decimated District Thirteen. Unacceptable. "These tributes shall be delivered to the custody of the Capitol and transferred into a public arena, where they will fight to the death until a lone victor remains," President Imperiosa Ironsquall's voice implied that this was a reasonable punishment, something she considered merciful, "henceforth and forevermore this pageant shall be known as The Hunger Games." Perhaps if the rebels had known better when to stop, these lengths wouldn't have been necessary.
- A special council handpicked a list of twenty-four names, each one a carefully chosen punishment. They were the sons and daughters of terrorists, of mayors, and of turncoat government officials who looked the other way when they should have been remembering their loyalties. Some of the names were rebels themselves, schoolchildren foolish enough to think themselves revolutionaries. Others were ordinary citizens who hadn't done anything except cower at the idea of bombs and gunfire, the kind of names that implied that this Reaping was random and wasn't purely intended to punish rebel soldiers. Then again... no revenge could be sweeter than forcing traitors to weigh their life directly against those of the very people they swore they were willing to die to protect.
- Not yet wanting to gather large crowds of an unsettled populace together, all citizens were restricted to their homes for the televised announcement of the Reaping. Peacekeepers stormed the streets, breaking down doors as names were announced and school photographs flashed on screen. Most children were seized and taken away with little more than a moment's warning, but others had been captured directly from the battlefield, weeks earlier.
- Life as they knew it was about to change, just not in the way most of them had hoped.

Arena
The 1st Hunger Games took place in an abandoned sports stadium. The "arena" was based on the Broncos Stadium at Mile High, Denver - though was almost inspired by the Red Rock Stadium in Colorado. Tributes were isolated and contained in makeshift holding cells built in the stadium locker rooms before the games began. These cells were guarded by Peacekeepers 24/7. As a result there was next to no communication between tributes prior to the beginning of the games, and only a few district partners knew each-other prior to the reaping (Districts Two, Three, Four and Ten).
The official arena description, written by Lalia, reads as follows:
- Beneath the blinding lights of the stadium, the greenest artificial turf money can buy stretches across an empty sports field ringed by more than seventy-six thousand empty plastic seats. Television screens across the nation cut from the field to the halls beneath as four dozen peacekeepers dressed in riot gear march in pairs, escorting the tributes of the First Annual Hunger Games from their makeshift holding cells in the locker rooms to the main event above. Wrists zip-tied behind their backs, they stand in two even rows of twelve along the sidelines, staring each other down. A series of soft clicks break the silence as their restraints are cut free. Nothing more than a small knife lies on the ground at each of their feet.
- They have been given no rules and no instructions, only the word of a police force that they have been raised not to trust that one of them will be pardoned — of their parent's crimes, of their crimes — and sent home.
- Choose.
Bloodbath
The entirety of the 1st took place in a bloodbath-style battle royale on the stadium green. Tributes were given a single knife each, plus the option of hand-to-hand combat if they wished. Rebel tributes were aided with in-character knowledge of battle, thus the additional ooc station rules of Self-Defense, Hand-to-Hand Combat and Blades were granted to said tributes.
Notes
- Instead of reaping tributes from a pool of characters, the tributes were reaped from a pool of available members.
- Tribute bios were written after the reaped member list was announced.
- The 1st Hunger Games played out much like an OOCG
Trivia
Special thanks to Lance for compiling this data.
- The 1st Retro games was first instance of the same district placing last and first in the same games, with D2M placing 24th an D2F placing 1st
- The first district eliminated (and worst average placement) was D5, with 23rd and 19th respectively and an average of 21st
- The last district with both tributes alive was D10, with 11th and 3rd places respectively - an average of 7th
- Five of the top eight (1st, 4th, 6th, 7th, 8th) were rebels, whereas only two of the first eight (21st, 19th) to die were rebels
- District Nine had the most kills of any district, killing nine others between the two, ironically
- The only person to kill their district partner was, again ironically enough, the victor Adder
- The top eight had six boys and two girls - but that didn't stop the patriarchy from getting smashed with Adder's victory
- The first instant kill in games history was rolled by Uxue Izar against Johannes Beaumont. It was the first (chronological) Stabbed in Eye insta of the Games.
