ESCAPEE BEHIND BARS
We’ve just received reports that a certain Arena escapee has been arrested on multiple counts of murder. Allegedly, the Head of Tower Security, Emerson Mars, has come across video footage of Jeanine Twill planting the bomb that tragically killed beloved Head Gamemaker Lysander Vultur and some of his esteemed colleagues. 
Though taking the Quell victor into custody did not come without its casualties. Gamma Gauthier, Head of the Sovereign Guard in District Thirteen, has been reported dead at the scene. 
As of this moment, there have been no news on the critically injured as they receive treatment in the Capitol Hospital’s intensive care unit. We still await word from the President or her representatives, though this arrest is widely seen as a first step towards rightful justice.

R.I.P.
It appears our Happy Hunger Games are off to a tragic start. Head Gamemaker Lysander Vultur has been killed in a tragic incident, according to the President’s office. As we were all watching on CapitolTV, Head Gamemaker Vultur was in the middle of a wonderful, poignant speech to the nation, welcoming District Thirteen to their first Games. A disruption cut the feed, but thousands who were also watching the GazetteTV live stream saw the awful scene: smoke and fire and darkness. It lasted 55 seconds before the stream came down. 
We now know that behind the clearing smoke, one of our most prestigious and respected Gamemakers gave his life. President Battenberg has not yet commented on the nature of the suspected explosion, but her office has released a list of the dead and injured:
Deceased:
Lysander Vultur (Head Gamemaker, The Hunger Games)
Weiss Bellpetal (Supervising Gamemaker, Biosciences)
Galvan Hardford (Supervising Gamemaker, Technology & Engineering)
Critically injured:
Bay Meadowlock (Gamemaker, Electrical Engineering Department)
Grey Seahill (Senior Field Producer, CapitolTV)
Tazzel Hardheart (Photographer, CapitolTV)
Amaran Peacesmith (Gamemaker, Muttations Department)
Storm Copperhair (Supervising Gamemaker, Landscape Architecture)
Clarence Dusal (District Thirteen Lead Agronomist, Advisor to the Sovereign)
We have been told about a dozen people are suffering from a range of injuries, but are expected to survive. No more names have been given out, but according to a media invitation, there were more than twenty people in attendance, including long-serving Gamemakers and District Thirteen representatives who either work as Gamemakers or are advisors to the Sovereign. Several media personnel were there, including the Gazette’s videographer, who we’re are told is okay, but has lost a thumb.
‼️ WHAT PLANET ARE YOU QUIZ ‼️
We are also told that at this time, attempts to inform next of kin in District Thirteen have been unsuccessful. There seems to be an issue with their communication technology across the board today. 
An investigation is underway. The President has not yet announced if she will make a speech.

Those tributes from Thirteen are so emo – don't they get the Games are a big deal?
I heard that sunlight and the imminence of being the first two to die from their District makes them sick.

Meet the Tributes of the 130th Hunger Games
Rhea Cardairel. The Capitol.
Oops, a glitch in our system! You know how it is: sometimes you need to wait for the best things. And Rhea certainly seems to be striving to be the best thing, well, person. We’re curious to see if anything will break her, or if she might prove you can kill with kindness.

Konner Bohr. District Thirteen.
Are K names a thing in Thirteen? They might be now, with two strong contenders from Thirteen. Yeah, yeah, we’ve seen Konner in the Tower - he doesn’t have a clue what he’s doing. But what eighteen-year-old boy really does? We’ll give him the benefit of the doubt his team and authenticity will help him. And so will the secret powers he got from a radioactive bug bite.

Knox Carbon. District Thirteen.
And we were concerned we might not have much to say about these kids from Thirteen. Knox is coming in hot (or is that the radioactivity?) after volunteering for Jeannie Twill. So far she hasn’t done anything more that’s made our jaws drop, but we’re keeping a close eye on her. She might already have a better grip on these Games than she knows.

Cecil Faust. District Twelve.
District Twelve may normally only mine coal, but every now and then, a gem is found. There’s something mischievous about him, we can tell. Maybe it’s just the hair, or maybe it’s something more. Regardless, we can’t wait to see what he gets up to both before and during the arena.

Banshee Grove. District Eleven.
She’s weird. Everyone else got that, right? We thought this kind of weird was Holland’s niche. If she ends up getting lost and found in the morgue, someone please send us pictures because we certainly are not going down there.

Summer Hazer. District Ten.
Wait, let us guess... she’s someone’s little sister? We’ve all seen this play before, but let’s settle in with a drink and some popcorn. Maybe this is just what Gatlin needs to launch himself into mentoring. And maybe this is also just what the waterproof mascara industry needed to put its products to the ultimate test.

Indiana Ofit. District Nine.
We’re still trying to figure out what the “it” that Indiana is “of.” We’d ask, but we don’t want to get yelled at. Actions speak louder than words, but Indy seems to want them both loud - and angry. We love it, can’t wait to see it in the bloodbath. But also, that’s the sort of thing you watch from a distance.

Shiloh Garner. District Nine.
Those ghosts of 120 sure did have a lot of babies. At least this one’s cute. He also seems like he has the making of a good tribute: strong, with some grit, and not too smart. He seems a little hot and cold right now, but we’re here to say: go on, Shiloh, make some friends! You only live in the arena once!

Hazel Sawyer. District Seven.
The other half of everyone’s favorite, punk rock girl group. They’re so angry, and it’s so cute. We love a vendetta! Please be sure to get your “Hazel Sawyer Interview Bingo Card” in the latest print issue of the Capitol Gazette. We are anticipating an Aspen mention, spitting at Holland, and a wardrobe malfunction.

Pepper Jacques. District Seven.
Another sibling, but sadly, not another victor’s sibling. Still, this one came with a lil’ bestie in tow. It’s really turning into a family affair around here, but we’ll let it slide for some good ol’ teenage angst! Crank up that grunge music, put on too much eyeliner, and join team... Pazel? Peppel? Hazper? We’ll work on it.

Vix Holt. District Six.
Miss Vix is here to nix any ideas she’s a meek little thing. Don’t let those doe eyes deceive you. We heard a rumor she’s got something worth fighting for back home, and it seems like she’s already making sure this isn’t the Friend Games.

William Packard. District Three.
Ooooh. Oh this will be sad, won’t it? We love seeing what siblings bring out in our victors, but these Packard boys are simply too cute for it to be cutthroat. Is William brave for his volunteering, or is he just dumb? We’ve seen it before, we’ll probably see it again: not all siblings win. Oh no, grab the tissues!

Avenue Barcroft. The Capitol.
Is it, like, weird to have a whole shrine to the Games and then get Reaped? Like, what else was gonna happen? Museum, shrine, what’s the difference? There’s no doubt Avenue knows what’s what when it comes to the history of the Hunger Games, but, well, a fortune teller isn’t required to guess her future.
