History
Scarlett Stroms was born in the year of the 57th Hunger Games. Her mother was a direct descendant of a long line of secret assassins in District 10 that originated during the Dark Days, and her father was a brain surgeon rumoured to have worked in the Capitol. Growing up in one of the largest and richest homes in District 10, Scarlett was an only child for the first 17 years of her life. She was treated cruelly by her heartless, cold mother and weak father, who was afraid of his wife and her cunning. Her childhood was fraught with emotional abuse and fear of her mother, longing for her to accept and love Scarlett as a mother should love a daughter. Because of this treatment Scarlett never understood the concept of love or affection, having never received it as a child.
At age 7 her mother first instructed her to pick up a sword. Despite protests of lawbreaking, her mother struck her across the face and forced her to pick up the weapon. From then on she was trained in secret with her mother to become a ruthless assassin, killing enemies of her family at her mother's orders by day. By night, she would sneak out under the ruse of 'Scout', luring men to their bedrooms and killing them at night. Promiscuous and beautiful, she turned her looks into a weapon and sought after older victims. Her trademark was slashing their throats open whilst they slept - or worse - whilst they were still conscious. It was rumoured that 'Scout' had stabbed a girl in the eye for simply looking at her.
At age 17, in an assassination attempt gone wrong, Scarlett's parents brought a near-dead boy to their home, hit in the crossfires of an attack on his family. Her father brought him back to life with no memories of his former self, naming him Lazarus Stroms. Her mother than proceeded to train Lazarus who was a natural killer, much to Scarlett's horror and bitter jealousy. The two were sent on assassination missions, often pitted against each-other by their mother. When Lazarus volunteered Scarlett followed suit, refusing to let him have the glory and leave her behind to face the wrath of her mother. Only after she volunteered did she realise they were escaping the horrors of her home life and the cruel woman she had called her mother her entire life.
