| ~ Enobaria agreeing with the Hunger Games involving The Capitol children. |
Enobaria is the secondary antagonist of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, the second installment in The Hunger Games trilogy, and one of the two secondary antagonists (alongside Brutus) of its 2013 film adaptation. She is a thirty-year-old Career tribute and a victor from District 2.
She was portrayed by Meta Golding.
Biography[]
As a teenager, Enobaria volunteered for the 62nd Hunger Games. Being a Career Tribute who has obviously been training for her entire life, she managed to win them. She became famous for ripping another tribute's throat out with her teeth. Later, she altered her teeth into sharp points like fangs. Since her victory, she lives in the Victors' Village and works as a mentor for subsequent tributes, obviously including Cato and Clove.
When the 75th Hunger Games comes, its tributes are chosen from victors of the previous Games. Enobaria happily volunteers again, alongside with her district partner Brutus, and obviously can't wait to get back into the arena.
During training, Enobaria usually practice with a sword. Katniss once fights her and they talk to each other, although it is sure they don't want to form an alliance with each other.
In the arena, it takes Enobaria a while till she reaches the Cornucopia. When she finally gets there, Katniss who outran her, shoots an arrow on her, but Enobaria dodges and jumps back into the water. She then allies with the other Careers, Brutus, Gloss and Cashmere, to kill the rest of the tributes. Enobaria kills Cecelia and the District 10 female in the Cornucopia bloodbath.
Together, the Careers walk across the arena, looking for the surviving tributes. When Katniss and the rest of the Rebel Alliance's tributes return back to the Cornucopia to retrieve more weapons, the Careers attack them immediately and Enobaria stabs Finnick's leg with a knife. In the movie, Finnick attacks Brutus and Enobaria swings her sword at his arm, saving Brutus. When Gloss and Cashmere are killed, Brutus and Enobaria quickly escape back to the jungle.
Later, Beetee sets up a plan to electrocute the water and cut off Brutus' and Enobaria's resources. He sends Katniss and Johanna to run the line across the jungle when Johanna jumps on Katniss, cuts out her tracking device and leaves her. When Brutus and Enobaria, tracking the couple, find a severely bloodied Katniss, they assume she is dead and leave her alone. They then attack the rest of the Rebel tributes. In the chaos that follows, Brutus and Enobaria split up. She stabs Beetee and then starts chasing Finnick. When Katniss destroys the arena, the rebels manage to rescue only Katniss, Beetee and Finnick, while Enobaria, Peeta and Johanna are captured by the Capitol.

As opposed to Peeta and Johanna, Enobaria probably isn't tortured by the Capitol and they probably set her free, because the rebels aren't able to find her during the rescue mission that brings the other prisoners to District 13. Enobaria later joins the rebels. Her life is spared because of Katniss' deal with President Alma Coin.
When the rebellion ends up being successful, President Coin suggests to organize the last Hunger Games which children of the Capitol would fight to death in. Coin asks the surviving victors, including Enobaria, what they think about it. Enobaria, just like Johanna, Katniss and Haymitch, says "yes" and wants the Capitol to "have a taste of their own medicine".
Enobaria's fate after President Coriolanus Snow's and Coin's death is unknown, but she probably returns to District 2.
Victims[]

Personality[]
Enobaria is a bloodthirsty warrior who enjoys fighting. She is very violent, even ripping someone's throat open. She is proud of this particular victory, as she had her teeth modified to remind people of it. Despite her violent warrior mentality however, she is not all bad; she joined hands with Katness and the other tributes before they were forced to compete in the games as a sign of respect for each other, and she showed disgust for the heinous actions of the Capitol, voting to instate a Hunger Games targeted at Capitol children to "Give them a taste of their own medicine", which may suggest that her savage attitude is a result from her experiences at the Hunger Games and she never actually liked the Capitol.
