Elos Winter, District Ten

Elos is of medium frame. He has a slim figure and is reasonable strong for his size, having helped out on the family farm all of his life. His legs and arms are both quite long and strong, and he has large hands with thick skin from years of working with them. Elos prefers to wear comfortable farming clothes - warm jackets, riding boots, tattered jeans and checkered shirts.

His face is scattered with freckles, unlike his sister, and his straight, dark brown hair is quite long for a boy's. His eyes are a piercing blue, complimenting his pale skin and full lips.

His features are round and slightly childish, and he has a small scar on his cheek, which he is very proud of. Elos permanently looks innocent and a little cheeky, which is not contradictory to his true personality.

The boy is, as mentioned above, innocent and cheeky. He is the brave one of his family, being the older twin. He has learned to protect and stand up for his sister. He is also very stubborn and persuasive - the energy and passion he puts into all he does makes it hard for anyone (especially Esther) to say no.


Elos has a very hot temper, and is very protective of his family and opinions.
Sometimes it gets a little out of hand, causing him to make unwanted enemies. He is very passionate about his opinions. Unfortunately, one of these said opinions conspires against the capitol. Elos does, however, love his home district. He would only volunteer at the reaping if his sister was in danger - but if selected he would fight as hard as he could to get home to her.

He is adventurous and daring, getting himself and his twin sister Esther into all sorts of trouble. Constantly on the go, the boy has a short attention span and is the leader of the who siblings. Underneath his sometimes fierce demeanor, Elos is kind and caring - always doing what he believes is right. He does not believe in the games, and refuses to train or comply.

Elos comes from a small family situated on one of the many farms in District Ten. They have been raising cattle, horses, chickens, sheep, pigs and other livestock for as long as anyone can remember. This gives Elos a steady grip on the meaning of death. His father had inherited the farm from his father, and his mother had been the youngest daughter of another farming family. She married his father only months before discovering that she was pregnant with the twins.

He lives with his mother, his father and his twin sister. His other sister, who was one year younger than the twins, was killed in a cattle stampede when Elos was eight. He was in charge of her, and blames himself for her death. This explains his protectiveness of his twin. His deceased sister was called Eliot.

He is also very strong for his age, having worked on the farm since he could walk. The boy is also able to work with animals in an amazing way - taming young horses and cattle so they allow him to ride upon them and sometimes even show off by preforming dangerous tricks while on their backs.
He is protective of his twin sister, Esther, and loves her dearly. Sometimes she is a little resentful of him, but generally she loves him back just as much. His protectiveness and strong will combined with his passion and love for his sister would mean that he would truly do whatever it took to get home if he were to be reaped.

Elos wishes to keep his scar if he was to win the games.
