Tucker Johnson District 2

Tucker Johnson measures out at about 6’1”, standing taller than all of his younger siblings. Tucker is extremely lanky; Throughout his life his mother has tried to force-feed him nearly 24/7 in order to bulk him up a bit, but no matter how much he eats, he never seems to get any bigger. His Career and Peacekeeper training has kept his body remarkably fit, and while his strength might hover around the average, his endurance and speed is well above it. Tucker has an array of faint scars along his entire body; the barrage of wooden swords deflecting off of his body has left their marks on him, but he doesn’t care as long as he can help to feed his family.

Tucker’s skin is light and smooth, almost completely free of any acne and blemishes. Some may feel like it is a little too pale, and his hair doesn’t do him any justice when it comes to contrast. Tucker’s hair is long, and his dark brown hair has long been confused for black; however, when looking at it during the day you can clearly see the chocolate colored tinge against the sunlight. Tucker shares his hair color with his youngest sister, Gemma Johnson, but the most standout feature he shares with her is his eyes. His eyes are a deep blue; inherited from his grandmother who was the object of affection for two men with a deeply connected past. Their eyes often remind their grandfather Rocky of their grandmother; resulting in Tucker and Gemma hearing more stories about their grandmother and the feud than the rest of the family.

Tucker’s sense of fashion hardly goes unnoticed; he enjoys fusing urban clothing and a Capitalistic sense of style to make out his wardrobe. His is rarely seen without his trademark “Johnson Crest” hat, and his clothes are always way too baggy for his seemingly withering body. He enjoys the color blue the most, and will wear nearly any shade; matching all of his clothing whenever he goes out into the city.

Tucker’s personality is far less colorful than his eyes and his wardrobe; in fact, some may say his skin is what resembles his personality the most. He is not dull and boring, but he is often very serious and highly motivated. His sense of humor has its limits, but he isn’t devoid of comedy, especially if the target of a joke has the last name Fitzwalters. Tucker’s main focus is helping his family and keeping them from being deprived of the material things that the rich in District 2 get to enjoy so easily. The Johnson’s have earned everything they have, and Tucker exemplifies the hard work and dedication that his father and grandfather have implemented in the family values.

Tucker’s hatred for the Fitzwalters runs strong in his blood; normally kind and understanding in the presence of his family and friends, Tucker becomes unnaturally hostile and frightening when it comes to the family feud. Partaking in an unholy amount of fistfights with Winston Fitzwalters, Tucker holds a particular disdain for the eldest sibling of his rival family, and the feeling has always seemed to be completely mutual.

Tucker is a relatively smart kid, but he is often brash and impulsive. Once he has a goal in mind, he has a hard time differentiating right from wrong, and achieving his goals tends to be the dominating focus in his life. Anger tends to seep into almost all of his action, and hate tends to be one of his strongest motivations. This often clouds his judgment, and a lot of the time things don’t work out in his favor. But, Tucker does have a soft spot for his family. He will do anything for his siblings, even if it means consistently risking his life to protect them.

If three groups summed up the central events in Tucker’s history, they would be Careers, Peacekeepers, and his family. When Tucker was 8, he asked to enroll himself into Career training, wanting to advance the Johnson name above the Fitzwalters as a Victor and a Champion. As he grew older, his name was continuously passed over in the Reapings no matter how much tesserae he took for his family. While it wasn’t completely necessary, the extra food didn’t go to waste, and the added chance to put into the Games was highly beneficial to Tucker’s goals. Tucker believes that due to some monetary manipulation and blackmail; the other Careers who had suggested that they wouldn’t enter the games had been coerced by Winston Fitzwalters to enter the games; for Winston’s family pride outweighs his need to see Tucker’s head on a stick.

Now above the Reaping age, Tucker has enrolled in Peacekeeper Training, with the same goals as before: Feeding his family and improving the Johnson name. He has enjoyed his training, and he has enjoyed the empowerment he feels by the Capital. His status as a PK in training puts him above Winston in importance, and nothing gives him more joy than seeing it mentioned to him.

Tucker’s relationship with his family has always been as strong as can be. The twins, Slate and Julie were born soon after him, so instead of looking at them as his younger siblings he tends to view them as his equals. Slate has always been his right-hand man, sharing in the petty squabbles and backstreet brawls that often surround the family rivalry. Tucker and Julie have always been viewed as the two more intellectual members of the family, and Tucker knows that Julie is the better mastermind of the two. They share the same goals, but Julie knows what not to do, what would do more damage to their family than good; and Tucker relies on her for that sort of information. Gemma has always been Tucker’s favorite, the baby sister of the group. She shares his physical features, but she represents the innocence that he has never seemed to have, even at his birth. Rocky looks up to Tucker, wanting to be like him in almost every way, but Tucker refuses to allow him to enter Career training.
