Kai Wimund - District 4

From the very first glance at him, man can guess that Kai is a person, who is used to spending much of his time outside – his skin always looks tanned and sunburnt as if he stays in the sun every single day and because of that, he looks a bit older for his age (16). Kai is not a very tall man – he is 5' 11", a height that is not very impressive among the boys, and weighs about 154 lbs. However, due to his lifestyle, his body is firm and even athletic to some point, which gives him good mobility.
You can’t guess what his personality is if you expect to do that from Kai’s face. His grey eyes make him look ruthless and threatening and he seems to be always angry because of the bushy eyebrows, which are often knitted. However, this impression can be changed when he smiles and the two dimples around his mouth appear. There are a dozen of speckles on his nose and cheeks that are a result of staying in the sun for too much. In the end, there is his shaggy dark blond hair and a birth-mark on the back of his neck.
Kai is familiar with scars – his body has all the results of hard work, fights with other boys and other incidents. His right hand has a very big scar on the palm because of burning with hot metal.

Even though his family is not poor, Kai has never been lazy or clumsy. He doesn’t boast about the social status of his family, and has always been very skillful and eager to learn new things. Although he always looks angry, actually he can be very nice and friendly in his own way but only to the people who he really likes. The others think that he is selfish and careless, just like the rest of his family.
Some of his mates think that Kai is very patient and they are right up to a point, but few people know that when he goes off, he is capable of killing a man. The reason why he swims that much is because this is his way to calm himself down. The bad thing about him is that he doesn’t care about his or someone else’s problems. His motto is “If I don’t pay attention to the problem, it is going to fade away”.
Wimund doesn’t feel close to his family but respects his father, from whom he had learned how to fish. However, he can’t stand his mother, sister and brothers and avoids talking to them as much as possible, as long as they really annoy him. Kai is not a guy that would trust a stranger or that can be trusted. What is more, he would try to make the best of every situation, so that he would be satisfied with the result of it, no matter what he would have to do.
Kai worships the sea and every day swims for at least an hour, no matter what the season is.

Kai is the second child in a big family – he has one older brother, one younger and a sister. He doesn’t like to spend much time with them, because they are lazy and selfish. Kai is the only one to be interested in the family business – his father owns a couple of fishing boats and the boy really enjoys every day, spent on any of them. His mother hopes that Kai would be chosen as a tribute, just as her brother was ten years ago, when he died in the games.
Kai himself does not care about the Reaping, he just wants to have the opportunity to go swimming whenever he wants. Someone may say that the young Wimund has spent more time in the sea than at home.
Of course, Kai goes to school but even though he tends to be more intelligent than some of his classmates, he is not a really hard-working student. However, most of the teachers like him, because he always knows what exactly to say and because of that he has very good grades.
In general, Kai’s life is not boring – he is adventurous and has enough friends to spend his days in an interesting way. Kai is also known to take sometimes reckless risks and to bet. The scar on his right palm is just a proof for this, when three years ago Kai was challenged to grab a hot kettle from the kitchen of one of his friends.

His name means "Sacred Sea"
