Appearance:
Seth is stockily built from cutting down trees six hours a day, and bringing them forth to be shipped to- well, he isn't sure really. He gets his dark brown eyes and black hair from what his father mentioned as a lost blood of Cherokee ancestry. He never knew what it meant, but he said that Seth got his pale skin from his father (which is now ten from being in the sun constantly), and his down-to-earth smile from both of them. His hair, as mentioned earlier, is a wavy black, and it actually gives him an intimidating appearance. His ears stick out as an elephant's would, cancelling out some of the intimidation, and transforming it into pure silliness.Personality:
His nose bridge is broken from when he running when he was 11, and apparently hit a tree limb right in the face, not just breaking his nose, but putting him into a coma for several weeks. His eyes are brown as mentioned earlier, but shaded with black, as if he was wearing makeup. His teeth have a hint of being staned from drinking coffee all of the time as a stimulant, and he often has a distant look in his eyes. His hands are very large, making it almost impossible to do many things, and his fingers are short and stubby. From a distance, he may appear to be fat, but as you get closer to him, it is easily noticed as muscle.
Sethi is very sarcastic, a trait enhanced from his father. He often will joke with his family members and close friends, but no one he doesn't know, because he is overly sympathetic when it comes to hurting people's feelings. It is easy to tell when he is joking because of his smile- a dead giveaway. His ears will also move when he is lying, which he has a habit of doinf when angered or when he desperately needs something, but is too afraid to tell anyone because he might come across as weak. Seth also enjoys pain, and considers it "Weakness leaving the body." Strangely, he thinks it feels generally nice to be in pain, and is only sensitive towards it in a few parts of his body.History:
Seth doesn't easily hold grudges, but he will if you provoke him enough. He has a natural habit of curling up his fingers into a fist and storming off, away from people before things get "ugly." He dislikes all hypocrits, and can barely be in a room with them. But, he forces himself not to judge them on sight, no matter what people say. He is also known to be immodest only when provoked.
Seth has a natural habit of messing with the bracelet on his hand/ He often keeps it hidden under his long sleeved shirts, because on it is "Fight Back". His personality of being persistent makes him want to keep it on though. As does his sense of fighting the capitol if he stood a chance. He also likes being brave, though it usually never happens. If one of his friends are in danger though, he will force himself to stand up for them, or maybe even someone he doesn't know, or someone who doesn't deserve his help. Either way, Seth believes it is shameful to turn away from someone who needs you the most.
Ever since he was a little boy, Seth has always loved the thrill of wielding an axe, though when he was younger he believed it was a weapon created by the gods. At age 4, he actually picked up a heavy axe, though it took him multiple times to try it, and he secretly got help from his mother, who loved him more then life itself. Her smile always made him feel special, so when she left to go to the capitol for business, and never came back, he cried and cried for hours. All of this happened at age four, and, his father and him then had to baby twins to take care of. The father could barely tke care of everything on his own, so up until he was nine, he fed and cared for his younger siblings and the house, while his dad worked.Codeword: oDair
But, afterwords, at age nine, he then began to work two hours a day cutting down trees, with the addition of still taking care of the kids and the house. His hours working at cutting down trees slowly increased, to where, by age 11, almost twelve, eh was working six hours a day! But then, the accident came. The horrible accident that ruined his life. When Seth was just about to turn twelve, the day before his birtday, he was out running around with his brother and sister, both age seven. He hit a tree limb, and went tumbling to the ground, being trapped in a coma for weeks.
It was an awful experience he never fully recovered, and by that time his reaction to everything was cut in half, along with the rest of his life expectancy, which was now around 40, due to by that time he would probabaly have demensia that would surely destroy his life. But he simply smiled, and shrugged it off, knowing that at this time he still had a life to live. His skill with an axe gradually increased again, but at age seventeen, he was only working when cutting down trees for six hours, even though his two siblings could now take care of themselves.
