🪾 the reaping // brown work boots, her nicest (only) dress, tan work jacket mostly for comfort. certainly not for luck.

🪚 the parade // angular and industrial, standard for district 5. steel gray dress with copper metallic accessories. she almost looks medieval.

📺 the interview // shiny, metallic, charming. plenty of warm, copper tones and a more girlish aesthetic than what she's used to.

🔩 the rebellion // work clothes. she's used to this. reliable, simple, and familiar

Oh, where do I start… a lot of these headcanons are district worldbuilding/district cultural details. because I like giving districts more unique cultures.

I’ve talked about my D8 cultural headcanons a lot, but I’ve been thinking about D5 a lot. I’ve got it divided into five sectors, based on different types of power—wind, solar, water, mechanical, and nuclear (inspired by @darthnell). The different sectors have different demographics, cultural practices, naming traditions, etc. Most Fives identify more with their sector than their district itself, which is why they (and the Nines, who live in communities that are even more isolated from each other) are less likely to team up with their DP, and have less social stigma about killing/injuring their DP.

Like a nuclear powerplant. If that were bombed, destroyed, exploded - the fall out would be catastrophic for the whole region surrounding it, even the district. Purely strategic forces from a side in conflict I suggest would know this and so avoid causing this to avoid unnecessary harm, including to any forces they have stationed there. But forces aiming to target the population as retaliation or punishment for their actions, especially in a state like Panem... might have different aims.

when i think of power plants the thing that always comes to mind is their impact on the environment. i remember stuff like chernobyl and that power plant from the simpsons, so those are my inspirations for this district.

i think the costumes should be like hazmat suits or representative of what a toxic waste disaster could cause

i loved these animal runway looks, it could symbolize the possibility of mutations occurring as a result of nuclear radiation. although i know the power plant in the hunger games is hydro-powered, it could also be a reference to human history and sci-fi

District Five, Boogeyman.

thriving in the nightmares of the unsuspecting, the boogeymen are born from district five. they’re quiet, seemingly faceless to many, and are much stronger during the night. even after their deaths, nightmares will plague any who crossed paths with them even for a second.
