Mayor Margaret Cox
Age:61
Hair Color: Grey
Eye Color: Green
Play-By: Helen Mirren
Brief Physical Description: Mayor Cox could be described as the usual old woman that could be seen anywhere on the streets on the Upper Level of District 13. She is around average height, slightly slimmer than the norm with grey hair that gently falls around her ears. Usually, Mayor Cox could always be seen bobbing around the Upper Level with a rather cheerful smile on her face.
Brief History: Coming from a long line of mayors, Margaret Cox was destined to take over once her father passed. However, she along with the rest of District 13 was surprised that she would be taking his job so young. At the age of 23, Margaret Cox was deemed mayor and started out her journey to help and serve her District and Nation like her ancestries before her.
Being so busy with her duties, Mayor Cox never had much time for the life shared by the rest of her peers at such a young age. Devoting everything she had into her work, Mayor Cox never married which means she was never blessed with children of her own to take her place. That never seemed to bother the now old woman, being sure that someone will step up once the time comes.
Throughout her years as Mayor, Cox was always seen as kind and fair. Even if she could not outright help the members of the Lower Streets and Town she tried her hardest with what her distinct was given. She was always known to lobby for more food and water with the Capitol and offered shelter for the many (frowned upon) traveling merchants to help those who could not afford the rather expensive food the Capitol was providing.
Occupation: Mayor of District 13
General Personality: Mayor Cox is a rather cheerful woman. She enjoys many simple things from her life such as long walks around the town square, caring for her garden, curling up in front of the fire with her pet cat curled in her lap, and most importantly caring for the wellbeing of her District while serving the Capitol to the best of her ability.
Even if Mayor Cox does not usually frequent the Lower Level of District 13, she always has a bit of spare food left out after her meals for the many less fortunate children. It would be improper for her to donate her food and kindness to them outright, however she believes that if she is not going to eat it why not held it off to a good cause. It wasn’t hurting anything, was it?
Strengths: Above all else, Mayor Margaret Cox loves her country. She is a very kind hearted and sweet woman, she is always there to lend a hand to anyone in need. Throughout the District she is known and praised for the care that she attempts to give everyone equally. She is very fair and tries to make sure that there are as little people that go without as possible. Mayor Cox also always enjoys the company of children, frequenting the schools and playgrounds as often as she can when her duties no not get in the way.
Weaknesses: Above all else, Mayor Margaret Cox loves her country. Even with her strong believe system, she is easily swayed by those of the Capitol. Using her as their puppet, she is required to follow all of their rules without question no matter how hard she wishes to fight it. It is an unstated rule that something important may be on the line is she is ever to cross them.
