(FINISHED) Broca Aldjoy [DISTRICT 10]

Broca is an averagely structured fellow, standing at 5 foot 10 inches tall and weighing 215 pounds, this is a vast contrast to his younger self who was continually ill and who missed many days off of school but due to hundreds possibly even thousands of hours working on a farm he has grown into the man he is today. Due to many years of working outside Broca has an almost permanent tan which makes him seem almost like a greek god with his muscles.

Broca has short brown hair which he cuts himself every couple of months as a way of saving money,. Occasionally Broca has a beard due to a lack of time being able to shave, therefore he can get a rugged black beard appearing every couple of weeks even more occasionally during busier times.

Broca hardly ever opens his jaw due to a lack of ability to speak due to an incident which occured when he was 16, check Broca's history, for more details. Strangely Broca does have a large branding mark on his right shoulder which is a family tradition dating back over numerous generations of Aldjoy farm hands, this branding mark is of a bull.

If you can imagine an old farm hand then Broca is a spitting image. A simple boy Broca isn't incredibly intelligent, he can read, write and do simple maths but nothing beyond that. Broca is also something of a social recluse, he has experienced too many people backstabbing each other in his district to be able to trust anyone else.

One thing that Broca does well is work hard, being the son of a cattle rearer he is used to working long hours for little or no reward but with his personal motto being: "Those who do little, get little", he refuses to sit back and watch others get credit for work.

Family has been a large part of Broca's life, especially his father. Broca's Father was the one who taught him how to rear cattle, birth a calf, and other various life lessons. Broca feels that due to his father's help that he himself is indebted to his family.

Being a farmhand for all of his life Broca is confident in his physical abilities, therefore he has come to get an ego due to his powerful hands. Sadly this personality trait added to his distrust of other makes Broca a very unapproachable person.

Despite this egotistic nature Broca is humbled by those with more power over him, for example his father, and also he is humbled by the simple things such as the sound of the wind or a bird whistling to itself in the morning.

Broca was born to farm owners, Gwyneth and Griffin Aldjoy, as the youngest of three children Broca was usually given preferential treatment due to initially being the smallest and weakest of the three. Within his first year Broca was diagnosed with a potentially fatal illness but somehow overcame it.

When he hit the age of 10 Broca was brought to work on the farm, to which he hated immensely due to his older sibling, his sister: Svelte, continually bullying him for his smaller size.

However the next year when Broca was 9 his sister was entered into the Hunger Games and was the fifth tribute to be killed. This made Broca stand up and work harder for his sister's memory, this inturn added with everincreasing orders of beef from the capital, slowly Broca begun to gain muscle mass and grow into the man which many see today.
The year after this Broca's father broke his leg after falling from a large height.

This resulted in Broca becoming the final person being able to look after the farm, his Mother suffers from an illness which affects his motor skills. Initially Broca enjoyed being the sole provider for his family but after a few months of this Broca began to get bored and misplaceful. This resulted in a near fatal injury for Broca.

One day while he was birthing a calf, Broca was kicked in the head by the calf's mother due to her thinking Broca was a threat. Somehow Broca survived but suffered damage to the speech processing area of his brain, this resulted in Broca completely losing his ability to speak.

To begin with this angered Broca as he loved the sound of his own voice, but over-time he came to find not being able to speak to be a positive. He was able to appreciate the rest of the world, and this inturn humbled him. Strangely however this had made Broca more determined than ever to enter and win the Hunger Games.
