                                     Hunger Games Challenge: Escape the Capitol
                                            Thanks to RebeccaS for the challenge.

Imagine you are living in the country of Panem and are a citizen of the Capitol. Despite the wonderful fashion and colorful hair, you are growing tired of living under the tyranny of President Snow.

After watching the news and seeing people of the various districts rebel against the Capitol you are filled with the sense of camaraderie. You pack a light pack of clothes, brightly colored makeup, hiking boots and hair accessories (you never know what it will be like on the road).

In order to escape President Snow, you must travel through all 12 districts to reach the safety of District 13. But hurry, you want to be there before you miss the rebellion.

Duration: Open

To escape to District 13 complete each of the obstacles from the 12 districts.

Spell-it-out rules

Using the first letter in the book’s title, the first letter of the series name, the first letter in the author’s first or last name, or the first letter of a character’s first, last, or nick-name, or the first letter in the audiobook narrators first or last name.
If you are reading a translated version, you can also use the first letter of the translator's first or last name.

As always, if the first letter of a title starts with ‘A’, ‘An’, ‘The’, etc., you may use the first letter of the second word in the title to spell out your chosen word.

Example under spoiler

I have a question, sorry if it's stupid. If you choose to do Spell-It-Out for a district do you have to spell out 6 different words (if doing victor level) or just one word with at least 6 letters?

One word with 6+ letters or if word is too short, another one.
For example if you want to spell ruby, it would be too short, so you can spell it twice or spell two different gems.
You need to have minimum 6 books for Victor.
