Name: Jasper Solangelo

Age: 15

District: 6

Gender: Male

Physical Description: People say Jasper cuddly-like, in the sense of a teddy bear. He's a bit chubby, to be more specific. His dirty brown (the color) hair is styled into a little tuff at the front of his head, and if you move your eyes down a bit, you'll see his sparkling green eyes. His parents and relatives all have strong and muscular bodies. Jasper has the body, but not the strength and muscle.

"It'll come, boy. One day, you'll see." His father always told him when Jasper was young.

Jasper's body allows him to endure a lot of different types of pain (really, being from where he is and his background, you should expect him to), but he absolutely cannot stand paper cuts. Absolutely a no-no.

Personality: Jasper is insecure. He's a little bit of a klutz, always worrying about what others think about him, though really he's a super sweet person, even though Jasper's usually nervous. But he's very hard-working and loyal too.

Background: His background is mainly what's made his self esteem so low. When Jasper was young, he was happy with a normal family, being the oldest of three children. His mother was kind and caring, always smiling and making the house smell with wonderful aromas. Jasper's dad was funny and nice. During the evenings before the second child was born, Jasper would climb on his father's lap and play with his glasses while his dad told him stories.

When he was 5 years old, Jasper's mother's health was getting bad. She developed constant fevers and coughs, and had to be in bed most of the time. She also gave birth to Jasper's younger brother, Brason, who was born with a leg that caused a horrible limp, but the family didn't have the money to pay for proper medicine. Even though they didn't have good money, though, they always had enough to put food on the table and have shoes on their feet.

Finally, Jasper's mother died when he was 8, leaving them with another child, this time a 2 year old daughter. His father took to drinking and while out one day, didn't come back. They were sent to an aunt's house, but she kicked the two oldest out..."That one cannot walk, he is useless in this district! The oldest is fat, you think we have that much food?!" The comment hit a little too close to home.

Jasper and Brason were sent to a horrible foster home. Almost right away, though, Jasper was adopted by someone, leaving Brason. Jasper was happy with his family (one other person), but couldn't stop thinking about his little brother. With school and district work, he never got to visit. One Christmas, though, when Jasper was 13, he got a break and went to visit-- only to find that Brason had died a year ago...something that broke Jasper's heart.

His little sister, seeing him at the trains where the Peacekeepers came and went, at first resented Jasper for leaving her. Jasper was shocked and tried to get her to understand. Eventually she did, and they became the best of...siblings? Friends?

"Here's my brother! He's six years older than me! Say hi, Jasper!" Cadence would introduce Jasper to her friends.

"Hi, I'm Jasper..." He would say timidly, smiling shyly and waving a little. The two siblings weeped together over Brason's death, though Cadence had practically no memory of him. Jasper's storytelling was so elaborate, though, that she felt she knew Brason her whole life.

Weapon of Choice: Ropes, maces.

Token: A sparkling glass heart charm, given to Jasper by his mother when she was dying, pressing it into his palm "Never doubt yourself, sweetie. Remember to be the best you can be, and remember that all of us love you- Me, Daddy, Brason, and-" She paused, patting her round stomach, winced in pain and coughed roughly before forcing out one of her last words, "Cadence."
