Eli Gray - District 11

I have long red hair that goes down to my butt. My eyes are green. I have sketchy eyebrows and I'm about 5 feet and 2 inches tall. My skin is pale. I am also very skinny. People often make fun of how I look.

I weigh about 100 pounds. I wear ragged clothes and my hair is often a mess. My eyesight certainly isn't the greatest. My clothes are often dirty from working. My hands are also dirty from working. I sometimes end up sitting on my hair.

I sometimes get made fun of foe how I look. I don't have any freckles on my face and my eyebrows point inwards. My hair is wavy towards the bottom. My lips are very light colored. Many people think that I dye my hair but I don't dye it.

I'm shy and don't talk much. I'm also very self-confident. I'm athletic and love to run. I despise the idea of anyone participating in the games. I love to read and write and I am a major bookworm. My favorite books are mythology.

I draw a lot even if what I draw doesn't make much sense. I never draw what I see. My family is also very precious to me. I'm not very good at making friends due to my shyness. I am very creative. I love to make art and paint.

I tend to have random bursts of anger. I love to hike up mountains even though I don't get to do it much. I'm a tomboy and not very girly. I love getting dirty. I'm also an animal lover! I'm certainly not fond of those wretched peacekeepers! I also don't really understand why the peacekeepers have to be so forceful.

I live with my father. My mother died due to punishment of peacekeepers. I also live with my brothers Damien and Capeus. They are both too young for the reaping. We are a rather poor family. No one in my family has ever been reaped.

We live off of mostly bread and small amounts of fruit. On a daily basis I take care of my brothers. When I'm not taking care of them I am usually helping around the house, getting food, or playing outside. On the weekends I tend to read and write along with a bit of singing and drawing. At least on my free time. I always carry a book.

I'm friends with Matthew Rain. We met in school and he works in the fields. We hang out around the streets sometimes. He will also go running with me sometimes. We're great friends. I love to hang out with him since there aren't very many people that I'm friends with.

Yes, I got permission from Kaplan to be friends with her character, Matthew Rain.
