Personality: Primrose is a young child who was fiercely protected by her sister. Since she's protected, she can be rather naive and is prone to fear and panic. This shows up at her first reaping in the movie where she has a panic attack just before signing in and Katniss has to calm her down. She tries the best she can to put on a brave face but she's not as brave as her big sister who has always been strong for her. She is very kind in nature and loves animals. She has nursed two animals back to health, Lady, her goat and Buttercup her ugly cat. Katniss has attempted to take her out hunting once and rather than be pleased with the hunted animal, Prim started crying and suggested that if they took it home and acted fast enough, they may still be able to save its life.
Katniss has said in the book that people cared for her because of what she could provide but they cared for Prim because of her nature. This shows that she is generally liked by the people who meet her as she is kind and is a person that you would want to take care of. It shows in the book where people were visiting Katniss and advising her that they won't let Prim or her mother starve while she went to the games.
She is very sensitive to other people's feelings and shows genuine care. When younger, Prim would cry when Katniss was upset even before she knew the reason she was upset. She is also shown to be very loyal as she would plait her mother's hair even though her mother was depressed and unresponsive. Prim would also continue to polish her father's mirror every night even after his death because her father disliked the dust that would form during the day.
No matter what happens, Prim will try to stay positive and hope for the best outcome. Despite knowing the history of district 12, she asks Katniss to try her best in the games because she might still win. She has a strong and very loyal attachment to Katniss as she was raised by her from the age of 7 after her father passed away and her mother fell into a deep depression.
As per her development into the later books, Prim also has the inherent traits to be intelligent, resourceful and she will be brave when required to be. She further develops her skills into the medical field and the core of her personality is to always reach out and help/heal when she can. Although, this is past her canon, it's important to note these traits as they are already within her but are just waiting to develop.
Strengths/Weaknesses: - Easily scared : despite trying to put on a brave face going to her first reaping, she breaks down just before the check in tables - Cannot handle cruelty/death of animals: Even though she was out hunting with Katniss for food, when she sees the animal dying, her first instinct is to save it - Overly reliant on others/her sister: Since being protected by Katniss, she hasn't been able to blossom and develop herself as much as other independent 12 year olds - Cannot turn down food or handle rich foods: Since she grew up in abject poverty, she is unable to handle rich food as she isn't used to it but nor can she turn down the offer of food as she's gone hungry for so long - Physically weak : She's not a good hunter and isn't forced to rely on her physical capabilities. The lack of proper food also means she's smaller than what an average child her age would be.
+ Healer : Taking after her mother, she has good healing abilities + Level Head: Katniss describes Prim as having a level head, she will stop and think things through and accept what she needs. This will more be the case after some canon development + Loyal : She is very loyal to the people she trusts by keeping up things she believes will make them happy even if they are unresponsive or have passed away. + Caring : She is very caring towards people and especially towards animals and will always do her best to save them + Resourceful : Even though she cannot hunt, she is able to make cheese from her goat to help with her family's survival

Samples First Person Sample: [As the screen flickered on, it was obvious that this broadcast wasn't Prim's idea. The young girl was lying in a bed, under the blankets with a soft groan coming from under the covers. The video itself was also slightly tilted as it was being recorded from the gear in a skiddo's mouth. The video now appears to be zooming in on the girl but it was actually the skiddo walking the gear up and dropping it by her pillow. All that can be seen on the screen now is the white ceiling.
After a moment, the video shows the skiddo's chin as it is moving over the gear to pull the blanket back, a worried "Skiiiii----" is all that's heard. Then another soft groan.]
I'm okay, Lady...I just ate too much. I've never seen so much food before and ... she said I could eat as much as I wanted.
[There was a twinge of guilt in her voice as she spoke. She had eaten so much food that night that it most likely could have fed her family for an entire week back at home and now she was paying the price for it. The image showed the skiddo's head a few more times as it was more insistent and nudging at the girl. This draws some half hearted laughter out of her as she shifts in the bed and then pulls the covers back over.
The skiddo then gives up and pushes the gear onto the ground, his face staring down at the camera now. "Skiiiiii----" she appears to be requesting help to make this young child feel better. He doesn't know how to cure this.]
Third Person Sample: It has been a few weeks since her arrival and although Primrose has already met quite a few warm and helpful people, she couldn't help but still feel an empty longing at times. The one important person wasn't nearby and she didn't have any clues as to how her sister was going since the Reaping. She sighed softly as she sat on the bed in the inn that she had decided to stay in for the night. The owners were very gracious and didn't charge her for very much which she was very grateful for. Primrose has always felt that people were nice to her and she would never let any of their offers be taken for granted.
As she sat there, lost in her thoughts, a soft body nuzzled its way into her lap. Large brown eyes looked up at her. "Ski...." The voice was soft, and quite comforting. The young girl couldn't resist smiling towards Lady, her skiddo. The friend that was right beside her when she woke and hadn't left her side since. She lightly brushed her hand over Lady's forehead before resting it on one of Lady's horns. As Lady started to understand more of Prim's feelings through that touch, she made a bigger effort to shift close to her body, trying to comfort her with the closeness. It brought her hope. Hope that one day she will see her family again and hope that her journey in this new world was going to turn out okay after all.
To accommodate the pokemon, Prim shifted slightly on the bed and opened up her legs so that Lady could cuddle up close into her arms. This gesture alone was enough to bring more of a smile to Prim and she spoke softly towards her. "You'd like Katniss. One day, for sure, I'll introduce you to her. She's very brave and the most wonderful sister anybody could have. When I'm scared, she'll sing a song to help me sleep and she always makes sure that we have enough food to keep going." There was a short pause in her story as she thought about home for the moment. "That's where you got your name from. For my birthday, Katniss brought home a goat and we named her Lady. She was one of the reasons we had food on the table but she was a really great friend to have." Just like you, she thought as she moved to hug the skiddo closer. Yes, just like you.
