Dante Gould-District One

Dante is not one you would like to meet in a dark alley, which you know from the moment you look at him. He is large, standing at about 5’ 10”, and muscular. He usually wears a tank top, which allows him to show not only his very muscular arms, but the tattoos covering said arms.

Upon closer inspection, you would find these tattoos the symbols of the District One gang, The Untouchables. These people are known for their extreme brutality. If you still haven’t ran away, you will notice his hair. It is dyed black and spiked, with the tips dyed red.

If you are still alive to continue looking at Dante, you will see his chiseled and pointed face. Of course, being in the toughest gang in District One, he has many scars. These were acquired through various fights with other gangs or Peacemakers.

Dante isn’t nice. In fact, he’s one of the meanest people you’ll ever meet. He doesn’t laugh at corny jokes, however he does laugh while beating up the guy who told the corny joke. As for his reaction to the Hunger Games, this is another thing Dante likes to laugh at. He especially likes watching the stupid ones get killed by the Career pack.

There is not one person Dante would take a bullet for. That would be hard, considering he is often the one sending the bullet at a victim. One of the main things he hates to be accused of his being all brawn and no brains. This is partially true however.

Dante is smart at some things, like fighting tactics and how to survive on the streets. But he is lacking in book smarts, but in his defense he never really had cause to learn those types of things.

Dante was born as any other child would be. His family was wealthy and he always had plenty to eat. As Dante lived the normal life of a child, his parents began to notice he was growing taller and bigger than the other children. This is when they requested he be placed in the Hunger Games Training Program.

Dante didn’t handle this news very well. He didn’t want to be in the Games. In fact, it was one of his worst fears as a child. He became unruly, defying orders given by instructors and parents. As a powerful, unhappy, and unruly teenager, he was offered a chance to join The Untouchables. He took his chance, running away into the slums of the city, where he was welcomed into the gang. Things took off from there, and he quickly became a honored and recognized member.
