State of the Capitol
Recently, a few things have gone down in the game. First, the head of police was found murdered in her home, and several Tributes were brought in as suspects to jail. There, they were branded with the marks of being 'traitors' and brutally interrogated. Many of their fellows tried to jailbreak them, but though some managed to escape for a week or so, everyone was eventually caught and sent back into the Arena. Those with brands woke with them despite being physically 'reset' after their death in the mall Arena.
During the Arena, a disgruntled Mentor used a Peacekeeper's security clearance to access the security grid of the Capitol and shut it down for three hours, during which there was a riot where many people died or went missing. The list of the dead and missing includes Tributes, Mentors, Stylists and Capitol citizens. During this, many Tributes and Mentors gained government secrets, stockpiled supplies or found hiding places.
As such, the Capitol has become much less lenient with the Tributes. Peacekeepers can be found on every corner, and they aren't afraid to taser and beat Tributes for backtalk. They will be harsh with anyone they see as not properly respecting their authority, and will constantly remind the Tributes that they have their loved ones hostage. New Tributes are advised to be very careful until this all blows over.
