The Story
This is Leila Metrios. I have not yet made her app yet, so I will post some basic stuff about her (also serving as a place for my notes about her). She is 38 years old and a mother of 14 (wow!). Her birth place is District 1, but she's been living in District 13 for the past 5 years now with her son Ophiuchus. In fact, when she was 17-years-old, Leila became the Victor of the 54th Hunger Games. She was very beautiful and desirable, especially so after becoming a Victor, so President Snow forced her to sell herself each night to Capitolites. Some of the young Capitol men did not want to use *ahem* protection, so Leila ended up getting pregnant a lot. The first 13 kids were from these kind of 'relationships', which leaves you guys plenty of freedom for choosing faces for them.
Leila's last child, Ophiuchus, was from her husband. After 7 years of being used as a tool for the Capitol, she decided that she'd had enough. If she got married, then Snow couldn't use her in that way anymore. From one of her nights spent in District 1, a romance blossomed, and Leila quickly seized the opportunity. Why the man chose to marry her after such a short time is still unknown--was it because of the money and publicity from marrying a Victor, or true love? Regardless, that's not important now because this man is dead. Snow was of course not happy with one of his prizes going off the market (Leila's reason was that all of her children needed a stable father-figure and she'd found a man she truly loved), so he killed him. Instead of killing all of the kids, though, Snow did something that was possibly even worse: he divided all of them up and sent them off into separate Districts. Leila was left shocked, devastated, and furious. Despite having so many kids, she loved them all equally and spent as much time as she could with them. She wanted to get them all back, but knew she was powerless.
On one fateful night, Leila was contacted by a recruiter from District 13. They talked about District 13 being able to help her in her situation if she would help them in return. Leila quickly--desperately--agreed, and the next day her and Ophiuchus left for 13. Taurus was still in District 1, though with a different family/at the orphanage, and the 13 recruiter said that she was only permitted to bring along one other person.
Five years have passed since then. Nothing has changed yet. Leila still stays hopeful for the future, but each coming Hunger Games brings along more anxieties than anything. She has 13 babies out there, all with an equal chance of being chosen.
The Information
All of these children are going to be named after the Zodiac and will have characteristics/personalities based off the stereotypes, fortunes, etc. of the astrological zodiac. Nicknames are optional (I'd imagine that someone wouldn't want to be called Cancer their whole lives xD). As said above, freedom is given regarding their appearances, and also with their history after the split (before as well, if discussed with me beforehand). Thus, all of the children will likely have memories of their previous family, whether good or bad.
VERY IMPORTANT: When you adopt a kid, you are not allowed to age them. I'm very sorry, but this is imperative to the plot. If some of the older kids age, then they will go over Reaping Age. And it would be weird to have some kids age and not all of them, so yeah, NO AGING PLEASE!
Another cool thing about this plot is that when all of the kids are taken, they will be sent into the Games all at once! Remember that by adopting one of the zodiacs, you are also signing them up for the Games when/if the whole family is taken. ALSO VERY IMPORTANT: Because my goal of this plot is to have the whole family go into the Games at once, if you adopt a kid and are deleted for whatever reason, I reserve the right to put them out for adoption again. If you return and want them back, you are free to take them again, or you must talk with their new RPer if they were taken. If they don't want to give up the character, then I hope that you would still consider taking a different child. c:
Personalities are also up for changing/discussion and feel free to add traits to the ones already there.

History: Refer to Leila's. He was the 14th and final child born, and remained with Leila while all of his siblings were forced away. Leila took him with her to District 13, and he feels sort of special because of that, thinks of himself as the 'favorite'.
