Wednesdae Drummond [District 9]

Name: Wednesdae ''Wes'' Drummond
Age: 15
Gender: Male
District/Area: District 9
Appearance:

Wednesdae Drummond has a strong physical build, earned from pounding steel in the hot furnaces of District Nine. He eats well, being an only child, making him healthier than the average District Nine teenager. He has brown, medium length hair that has an ash-blonde tint in the sunlight. His eyes are a dark hazel, verging on brown that reflect what he is thinking. His arms show many scars and burns from his years in the forge.

Wednesdae can be found wearing a thin jumper, usually grey in color, over a black t-shirt. This is usually accompanied by dark work-slacks and boots. Along with this, Wes usually carries a brown shoulder-bag, in which he keeps small belongings. When working, Wes wears his usual work-gear, consisting of his slacks, a shirt and a white apron.

Personality:

Wednesdae is somewhat of a perfectionist. He takes pride in what he does for a living and makes sure it is done to the utmost perfection. Attention to detail is definitely a trait he possesses. His obsession with perfection is not contained in the workplace, but in his home, where his room is immaculate. At school, he goes to unhealthy lengths to study and when addressing an elder, makes sure his grammar and the way he is presented is immaculate.

But Wednesdae is far from perfect. He can be somewhat of a snob, bettering himself to others. As an only child, Wes has never had to push his way up a ladder of authority, he has always assumed he is on top. Sure, this makes him unpopular to people who have got to know him, but if you can somehow get on the same wavelength as him? Then you've made a friend.

Wes can sometimes think that the world revolves around him, and has been shocked in the three Reaping's that he has survived. Three times he was not picked, which is fine by him in terms of staying alive, but he sees himself as the best person his age to have a chance in the Games. Not that he would ever want to be in them.

A psychologist once came to see Wes, by his parents recommendation, and diagnosed him with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Wes see's this as a weakness, and thus an imperfection. Ironic that the more Wednesdae tries to be perfect, the less perfect he is.

History:

Wednesdae Drummond was born on a Wednesday, and so he was rather unimaginatively named after the day. Wes' vain attitudes meant that until the age of five, he thought that the Capitol had named a day after him.

As an only child, Wednesdae never had to share food, meaning that he grew up to be a healthy teenager. This led him to being able to work in the family Blacksmith from the age of eleven. He never has had to sign up for Tessarae, meaning that worrying about the Games has never been a major concern of his.

A typical day for Wednesdae would consist of an early start to light the furnace, followed by a light breakfast. Then, he would travel to the market to stock up on food. Upon his return, Wes would most likely prepare basic metals for welding. A long day in the forge would mean that an evening bath is warmly welcomed by Wes, before bed.

Some days, Wes is granted the day off. In this time, he likes to deliver goods from the Blacksmith, as this gives him an opportunity to explore the District.

Nothing major has ever stood out in his life as important. Apart from his obsessing over keeping everything in his little life perfect, and being named after a day, Wes has nothing that makes his life out of the ordinary. He is simply a blacksmith from District Nine.
