Katniss'd 

(Verb)-To volunteer yourself for something in the place of someone dear to you, putting yourself before them in order to save them.

Comes from the heroic act of Katniss Everdeen in the opening chapters of the Hunger Games, in which she volunteers herself instead of her sister to go to a gladiator-style battle to the death.
I had a presentation for Latin class today and I wasn't ready, but then Marissa katniss'd me and volunteered to go in my place. What a BRO.

Katniss Everdeen 

An amazing, intelligent and extremely brave young woman who sacrifices herself for the people she loves. She is a fighter and has an interesting story as well as a love triangle which actually makes sense, unlike the obvious Edward - obsessed one from Twilight. Also, Katniss has a powerful skill and is both a talented archer and an athletic person.
She is a role model for young girls, regarding her courageous, quick thinking attitude, and her ultimate non - dependency on men. Even better, Katniss Everdeen is portrayed by the wonderful, hilarious Jennifer Lawrence, who never fails to make people smile.

Girl 1: Hey, did you hear about that new book, the Hunger Games?
Girl 2: Yeah, its the new young adult phenomenon!
Girl 1: And guess what? It Isn't about sparkly vampires!!
Girl 2: I love Katniss, man she's a BOSS.
