 The hero I choose was Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger 
Games. 
 She is a Hero in many ways and she also reflects the 
characters of an Archetypal Hero.
 The call to adventure for her happened when she choose to 
fight for District 12 in the battle. 
 It was an adventure leaving her own home to go to a 
strange land fight. 
 Volunteering to go for sister was allowing her to go on this 
adventure to an unknown place.
 Katniss’s left her home, family and friends behind to go fight 
for a worthy cause. 
 She left to go to a totally new and unknown place not 
knowing what could happen.
 Katniss had a mentor called Haymitch. 
 Haymitch guided her and protected her through the 
adventure. 
 He also warned her of the dangers that were to come her 
way.
 Katniss crossed the threshold when she entered the tube 
that led her to the battlefield. 
 She crossed into a totally new, strange and dangerous 
place that is very different from her everyday habitat.
 Katniss had a sidekick that stayed with her till the end 
named Peeta. 
 Peeta along with Katniss tried their best to conquer all their 
competition and stay together defying the rules that stated 
that one of them had to die.
 Katniss reflects the characters of an archetypal hero in so 
many ways. 
 She accepted to go on an adventure, left to fight for a 
cause, crossed a threshold, had a mentor to guide and lead 
her, and she had a sidekick to help her throughout the 
journey.
