Everyone on the job calls me that, anyway. My girl and little brother, well, and the rest of the district who aren't workers know me as just simply 'Jay'.” [b]*District Relation in Name:[/b] “My father thought it would be funny to name me ‘Jack’, because we are LumberJacks by District.. my mother wanted a unique spelling. Even though it’s supposed to be pronounced as ‘Jjj-awk’, it’s pronounced Jack. Our last name is also a play on the word Yule, which is a type of tree. Our family name is known big in our district, as well.” : [u]Gender[/u] : [b]What Makes Me ME:[/b] “Really? Do I seriously have to answer that?” [b]What Defines Me:[/b] “I’ve got a girlfriend, so.. This should be a no-brainer, but I get you Capitol freaks aren’t as smart as you try to appear.. I’m heterosexual.” : [u]Birth[/u] : [b]*What’s My Age, Again?:[/b] “17 Years Old. Yeah, I know. On one of my last legs for the reaping and end up getting picked. Yay me, right?” Jacque adjusts himself in his seat, straightening up a bit, "Honestly it's my fault and choice, though. I took one for my team." [b]Date & Time of Birth:[/b] “Why does this even matter? You know how old I am. No need to know any further.” [b]:: [u]General Information[/u] ::[/b] : [u]Origin[/u] : [b]*District #:[/b] “I am from the seventh District out of the thirte-.. twelve, I mean. It’s hard to remember there’s no longer thirteen of us, anymore.” [b]*District Career:[/b] Lumber - “I am a LumberJack. Yes, haha, “LumberJacque”. Make fun like everyone else does.” [b]*District Token:[/b] “This ring was my father’s, and his father gave it to him back when he turned 18. It was made out of the first tree my grandfather brought down. I have it now because, well.. if you don’t already know, you’ll find out.” [hider=My District Token] [img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/b8/c8/ac/b8c8ac641fa5c453b98fdcb98ec5cd02.jpg[/img] [/hider] : [u]Description[/u] : [b]For Those Who Don’t Know Me:[/b] Jacque is a people pleaser. He’ll do just about anything for anyone, even if they’ve done him wrong. He’s also a natural leader.. although he’d rather be a team member most times, being the team lead isn’t that difficult for him to become. Jacque has quite the temper on him though. Rub him the wrong way too far and you’ll catch a glimpse of ‘Jacque the Ripper’. He’s got, what seems like a quiet and reclusive demeanor at first, but really he just likes to stay quiet and watch everything from afar. Jacque has this rule, ‘Nothing ever gets done right when you do or say something without sitting back to think on it.. never done anyone any amount of good.’ For his age, Jacque is wise beyond his years and most definitely independent. Must have been brought up due to the fact he lost his parents so young and had to learn how to do everything on his own, while taking care of his baby brother all while trying to live as an adult trapped in a young kid’s body. As much as he doesn’t like to, he knows how to follow orders and is well-disciplined. His discomfort, more or less, with the Captiol stems from his father, who openly disagreed with their beliefs. [b]*-The 5 Do’s:[/b] 1.Informed 2.Considerate 3.Wild 4.Reliable 5.Devoted [b]*-The 5 Don’ts:[/b] 1.Stubborn 2.Quarrelsome 3.Pessimistic 4.Impatient 5.Unmerciful - if pushed to the limit [b]*For Those Who’ve Never Seen Me:[/b] Jacque stands roughly at six feet four and a half inches tall, weighing around two-hundred and ten pounds. His eyes are a deep blue, like the Caspian Sea with thick, very dark locks of hair that don’t stretch past his ears. He’s starting to grow in his beard, a bit. It’s not much, but he has a five o’clock shadow that’s grown in. Under his clothing, he’s built with muscle. Jacque’s biceps are thick, massive for a kid his age, really.. and his chest and abs are defined. He also has large hands, and equally large feet to go with them. He’s, what District 7 would say, a fine LumberJack specimen. Almost perfect, some might even say. [b]-Something You Don’t See Every Day:[/b] There’s deep scarring all over his upper body, on both front and back sides. A predominant group of four jagged lines stretching from his jaw to his mid stomach area nearly down the dead center of his chest. A reminder of the trauma he underwent when attacked by a wild timber wolf at the age of ten. Jacque's left hand is also scarred up with burns from the house fire in his childhood home. [b]*Whatever You’ve Heard About Me Is a Lie:[/b] “I grew up in a decently wealthy family. Least, wealthy for the Districts. Nothing like what kids in the Capital get to grow up with.. I had my parents for all of 10 ½ years before they were taken from me. I raised my brother up nearly since the day he was born. After he was born, it hadn’t been long since my dad had been mauled by the same timber wolf that attacked me that my mother resorted to drinking. One day, she was drinking during the day while she was cooking lunch for herself and I.. she passed out drunk, and left the stove on. Whatever had been cooking in the stove that morning was burnt to a crisp and had eventually caught fire, spreading throughout the house. At the time, I had been down the road a ways playing with some fellow District kids when I saw the smoke rising from the direction my house was in. I ran as fast as I could to my home and ran inside without a second thought. To no avail, I couldn’t locate my mother but found my brother almost immediately due to his crying out from his nursery room. I got out of there as soon as I could, but not unscathed. I spent the next 6 years living with my aunt and uncle, who had children of their own and didn’t have the means to feed all of us.. so I got a job when I was just 11 years old. I helped haul wood, transferring planks and logs from one pile to the next. I spent the next 4 years doing that until I turned 15 and got myself an actual Lumbering job. It became a huge joke in my house that I could now officially be called ‘LumberJacque’. As for the games in those years where I was posted up at the reaping, and even before, I never liked watching the games.. and never had a fear of getting chosen. Surprised more often than not. Had my name in there so many times each year. This year was just unavoidable. Didn’t matter how many times my name was in that pot. I volunteered for that Willom boy I used to pal around with when we were youngins, and even then some. He was a couple years younger than me, but he got me better than the rest.. he had a major accident on the yard on his first day lumberin’ and busted himself up real good. Willom couldn’t walk right since that day.. I volunteered for him, because I knew I’d at least have a slight chance at winning, whereas he did not. I couldn't allow him to be the one.. wasn't going to watch my friend die. Like my father used to say, 'It ain’t easy bein’ pals.'" : [u]Relationships[/u] : [b]Furry Friends:[/b] “I have a dog back home named Cedric. He's an old boy, though. Had him since I was 8 years old. He's nearly on [i]his[/i] last leg of life.” [b]Partners In Crime:[/b] “I’d have to say Willom was the only true friend I had besides my girlfriend Yanna. I really only hung around the two of them.” [b]*Loved Ones Left Behind:[/b] “Pictured, from left to right & top to bottom, is my aunt, grandfather, grandmother, mom, uncle (by marriage) and my father. This, of course, is an old photograph. My grandparents have been gone since before I could remember, my parents are both gone as well.. been gone for 6 ½ years now. My aunt and uncle are the only ones still around. The last photo is my baby brother, who my mother had just before the house fire incident.. I saved my brother and I, but couldn’t save her. Just sucks that my brother never got to know our parents..” For a moment, Jacque’s eyes fall to the floor with a vacant expression before he looks back up as if nothing happened and continues, “That’s also our dog Cedric in the photo with my brother.” [hider=The Only Family Photo my Brother and I Possess] [img]http://www.thomasfamilyclan.info/images/thomasfamily.jpg[/img] [/hider] [hider=My Baby Brother, Palmer and family dog Cedric] [img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/01/4b/dd/014bddb927456bf16f617204c1fe04db.jpg[/img] [/hider] [b]*Someone Special Back Home:[/b] “Yanna, my love.. till we meet again.” [hider=My One and Only] [img]https://thegirlintheorange.files.wordpress.com/2014/02/dscn4438.jpg[/img] [/hider] [b]:: [u]Other Information[/u] ::[/b] : [u]The Reaping[/u] : [b]*Volunteer or Natural:[/b] “I volunteered for the reaping. An old pal of mine, Willom, was chosen. I took his place because.. well, that’s what pals do. As sad as it is, he wouldn’t have made it very far in the Games.. I at least have a bit of a chance. More so than him, anyway.. I’d do anything for my friends." [b]*Are the Odds In My Favor?:[/b] “My name is in ‘the pot’ 17 times. Not even for myself. I took rations for the less fortunate kids of my district whose parents couldn’t, or wouldn’t work. I try and take care of my people as best as I can.” : [u]Specialty & Threat Level[/u] : [b]*How Do You Use These?:[/b] “I know how to throw a hatchet with almost perfect accuracy. Don’t believe me? Try me!” [b]*My Skills Pay the Bills:[/b] “I know how to start a fire all on my own. Just a stick and a log, I’ll have a fire up in less than a minute.” He smirks a bit and corrects himself, “Okay, maybe not under a minute, but I’m pretty quick at it!” [b]*You Have Nothing to Worry About:[/b] “Threat level? Ha! I’d say I’m a solid level 10 threat!” Jacque smirks and looks back at the camera with a more serious look, “I don’t know honestly, but I hope I’m worth something on this so called ‘Threat Level’.” [b]:: [u]Additional Information[/u] ::[/b] : [u]Random Facts[/u] : [b]BloodType:[/b] O [b]Dominant Hand:[/b] Ambidextrous, but because of the burns on his left hand, he mainly uses his right. [b]-Fears/Phobias:[/b] “I have an honest fear of wolves. I got attacked by one when I was just 10 years old. Luckily my father was nearby. He heard my screams and ran to help.. he averted the wolf’s attention from me and told me to run. I should have never ran. I ran all the way home and yelled for help. By the time we found my father and the wolf, it was too late. My father died trying to protect me. Since then, I’ve stayed away from the woods unless I’m on the clock surrounded by the other loggers.” [b]Favorite Quote:[/b] “Can’t wrap your arms around a memory.” [b]:: [u]Personal Photograph[/u] ::[/b] : [u]Appearance[/u] : [b]*Take a Picture, It Lasts Longer:[/b] [img]http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/img-thing?.out=jpg&size=l&tid=46144506[/img] [/hider] [hider=Mina Anglo; District 4 Tribute] [b]:: [u]Personal Information[/u] ::[/b] : [u]Name[/u] : [b]*Full Birth-Given Name:[/b] “Um, Mina..” After a moment of silence, the reporter asks for her whole name, and Mina turns a bright red before replying, “Mina Anglo, sorry. That’s my full name.” [b]Nickname:[/b] “My best friend used to call me ‘May’, because my initials are M.A. So I guess that could count.. my first name is already short as it is, so I never grew up with any other nickname than May. I’d prefer to go by Mina, though. Only Nina gets to call me ‘May’.” [b]*District Relation in Name:[/b] “Mina's language of origin is Sanskrit and it is predominantly used in the Indian language. Meaning: 'fish'. My last name Anglo, I would only assume, is a play on the word Angler.” : [u]Gender[/u] : [b]What Makes Me ME:[/b] “I am a girl. I find it very offensive that you had to ask that as if you couldn’t guess.” [b]What Defines Me:[/b] “Heterosexual. Besides, have you ever run into someone in the Districts who is OPENLY bisexual or homosexual? I think not.” : [u]Birth[/u] : [b]*What’s My Age, Again?:[/b] “I’ll be spending my 15th birthday inside the Games.” [b]Date & Time of Birth:[/b] “You’ll know when my birthday is. As I said before, I’m gonna be spending it within the walls of the games.. far, far away from anyone I wish I could spend my last one, with.” [b]:: [u]General Information[/u] ::[/b] : [u]Origin[/u] : [b]*District #:[/b] “I am from District 4.” [b]*District Career:[/b] Fishing - “I have a job, sure. I’m the fish gutter. One of the workers in charge of cleaning out the fish that are brought in. Not difficult at all, honestly.. just really gross. Not many girls are too eager to do the job that I have, but some like me don’t really mind. I grew up with older brothers, so the things my brothers have put me through makes my job look like it’s a piece of cake!” [b]*District Token:[/b] “I have this wooden bear necklace that my father made and gave to me. The first time he took me out fishing, we encountered a bear. Dad always said they were good luck and always called them ‘Nature’s Fisherman’.” [hider=My District Token] [img]https://cdn-img-3.wanelo.com/p/b75/b38/b05/d23d73cad89b1e29308557a/x354-q80.jpg[/img] [/hider] : [u]Description[/u] : [b]*For Those Who Don’t Know Me:[/b] “It goes without saying that about 98% of the people who meet me instantly love me. I am a real people person once I warm up to someone, and am very friendly upon meeting new people but can be super shy at times as well. Once you get to know me, I'll be one of your most trusted and loyal friends. Or, at least I hope I can be. I expect a lot of myself, and put others needs before my own. I am very family-oriented, and will do whatever it takes to make it back home safe. I'm definitely different. Some might even say I'm difficult. They're right, because truth of the matter is I'm complicated.” [b]*-The 5 Do’s:[/b] 1.Compassionate 2.Considerate 3.Loyal 4.Trustworthy 5.Easy-Going [b]*-The 5 Don’ts:[/b] 1.Self-Loathing 2.Quick to Judge, sometimes 3.Reclusive 4.Quiet - won’t speak up, or speak what’s on her mind 5.Over-Achiever - sometimes a bit too much effort put into things [b]*For Those Who’ve Never Seen Me:[/b] “I’m roughly five foot five inches tall and weigh around one-hundred and twenty pounds. My skin is a light tan. My hair is a golden brown in the sunlight but during the nighttime hours, it’s quite dark, itself. My eyes match my hair, as well. I have a somewhat scrawny build, and have lean muscle on my arms and legs. I’m a runner. I love to run. My stamina is through the roof, so best of luck to you trying to catch me on foot on the arena.” [b]*Whatever You’ve Heard About Me Is a Lie:[/b] “I had a decently boring life, growing up. There was nothing out of the ordinary in my life that would be interesting enough to talk about, honestly. My family and I live a very quiet, invisible life. We’re just a number, in the many lives that live in the districts. We do what’s expected of us and keep the peace, though I’ve heard whispers through my house of how the Rebellion had been a good thing, that the only thing stopping my parents from trying to continue that work was us kids. Of course I’d never say anything to anyone else.. only reason I’m telling you is because you aren’t going to tell anyone.” A moment of worry and regret rushes over her face as she adjusts herself in her seat and leans in slightly, whispering brokenly, “Y-You aren’t going to tell anyone, right?...” : [u]Relationships[/u] : [b]Furry Friends:[/b] “My cat Fly who I’ve had the last 3 years follows me everywhere. Especially when I go into work, she’ll stay right at my heels because she knows she can get some fish guts if she comes with me. Regardless if it’s me or one of the other workers, she gets what she wants, most of the time.” [hider=My Fly Girl] [img]https://www.mainecoonfancy.com/forums/uploads/a8bb829b61883adc791e465541bff9f8.jpg[/img] [/hider] [b]*Partners In Crime:[/b] “I had one good friend, Nina and multiple ‘friends’ who I knew by just simply growing up in D4. Nina is my best friend. Our parents grew up together and our moms named us similarly, knowing we'd be just as close as our names are.” [b]*Loved Ones Left Behind:[/b] “My momma, daddy, and three brothers, Nile, Ryvers and Laken. In the photo below, it’s (obviously) mom first.. the second photo, from left to right, is Laken, dad, Nile and then Ryvers.” [hider=Mom, Dad, Nile, Ryvers and Laken] [img]http://www.newyorkfishing.com/photos/bass2.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.bigmarlinpuntacana.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/family_fishing_charter_bigm.jpg[/img] [/hider] [b]*Someone Special Back Home:[/b] “There was this boy that I had thought who loved me, but turns out his heart had been set on another girl.” [b]:: [u]Other Information[/u] ::[/b] : [u]The Reaping[/u] : [b]*Volunteer or Natural:[/b] “I was naturally reaped.” [b]Are the Odds In My Favor?:[/b] “The odds were never in my favor. As soon as your name is in that pot, you’re no longer safe. No matter how many times your name is written on one of those slips..” Her name was in the pot 5 times. : [b]Specialty & Threat Level[/b] : [b]*How Do You Use These?:[/b] “My dad used to take me fishing with him, and each time it was different. We would use something different to catch the fish each time. A few times, we used spears to catch our fish in the streams. He taught me how to throw them at targets, as well. I’m not very good at it, but I’m sure I can manage in the games if I just get my hands on a spear or trident.” [b]*My Skills Pay the Bills:[/b] “I can tie any kind of knot you can think of. I’m pretty decent at scavenging for stuff.. mainly earthworms and different kinds of nuts and berries. Homemade fishing rod? No problem, for me! I also used to help my mom in her bakery, where I used to decorate cupcakes, cookies and full-size cakes. I’ve seen in past games where people have camouflaged themselves with mud and things.. I’m sure I could learn to do something like that if I took the time to practice!” [b]Official/Personal Training:[/b] “I grew up with three brothers. I had to know how to fight and grapple to get out of their death locks. Of course I know it’s not gonna do me much good in the games to say I’ve fought my brothers before, but they treated me like another brother. They were rough on me, and I learned how to defend myself against them. I think that gives me some kind of advantage when it comes to close combat, stuff.” [b]*You Have Nothing to Worry About:[/b] To be determined... [b]:: [u]Additional Information[/u] ::[/b] : [u]Random Facts[/u] : [b]Blood Type:[/b] AB+ [b]Dominant Hand:[/b] Left, but throws with her right.

I don’t like being alone..” [b]Favorite Quote:[/b] “Not all those who wander are lost.” [b]:: [u]Personal Photograph[/u] ::[/b] : [u]Appearance[/u] : [b]*Take a Picture, It Lasts Longer:[/b] [hider=Arena Appearance] [img]http://imagesmtv-a.akamaihd.net/uri/mgid:uma:image:mtv.com:10596296?quality=0.8&format=jpg&width=980&height=551[/img] [/hider] [img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/18/a9/51/18a9519c2c2374c132df9e2492db4829.jpg[/img] [/hider]
