Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games is described as an archetypal hero. She accepted a call to adventure when she volunteered to represent District 12 in the Hunger Games. She left her home and family to travel to a strange new land and fight for a worthy cause. During her adventure, Katniss had a mentor in Haymitch who guided her and warned her of dangers. She also had a sidekick, Peeta, who stayed with her throughout the challenges and helped her defy the rules by trying to survive together.
