Name: Ezekiel "Zeke" Doon
Gender: male
Age: 16
District: 11
Appearance: Ezekiel is of African-American heritage, like most of district 11's population. He is average height for his age, and skinny but muscular enough to have an edge in most fights where he's able to make the first strike. His eyes are a bright green, with a slightly yellowish tint. His hair is jet black, with a small red-dyed streak in the front, from a bottle of dye given to him on his last birthday. His hair is somewhat long and surprisingly straight for someone of his heritage, hanging just below his eyebrows in the front and down to the base of his neck in the back. His face is fairly attractive, with a chiseled nose and chin, set off by his youthful-looking eyes.
Ezekiel isn't one to obsess over what he wears, but he likes to look good. He prefers bright-colored plain shirts and black jeans. Ezekiel doesn't get cold often, and usually doesn't wear jackets or coats.
Personality: Ezekiel is a very easygoing type. That isn't to say he doesn't try, but he always has a certain slouch to his stature, and appears calm and unconcerned in the face of tense situations. He enjoys having fun, and tries to see a bright side to unpleasant situations. To most people, he seems a little bored with life.
In reality, Ezekiel is much more sensitive than he lets on. His easygoing appearance is a cover, due to a paranoia of letting his emotions show, bred early on my his abusive father's treatment of him. Another reason for this is Ezekiel's own anger issues. Ezekiel used to be a brawler in school, and didn't stop causing trouble until one painful memory of a night involving his drunk, angry father and a long, splintered piece of plywood. Ezekiel doesn't really avoid people, but avoids opening up to them until he has already established a friendship with them. One of the first times a friendship lasted long enough for this was with Saira Feramine(the female district 11 tribute), a long-time friend. Ezekiel is a quick thinker, good at improvising.
History: Ezekiel was born to a loving mother, Sasha, and a hating father, Micheal, who felt forced into marriage after getting Sasha pregnant. At first things were okay; Sasha wouldn't let Micheal near baby Zeke when Micheal was drunk. Then Micheal began coming into work drunk, and had to be fired, so Sasha had to begin taking extra shifts to make up for it. This would leave Zeke home alone with his father often, and his father's ways began to rub off on him. Until age 7, Zeke caused trouble wherever he went, picking fights and calling names, throwing bricks at windows. This ended, strangely enough, because of his father. One night, when Ezekiel's father was in a rare state of soberness, he told Ezekiel not to learn from his old man, that he should try and be better than him. For the first and only time, Ezekiel saw sadness in his father's eyes.
After this point, Ezekiel began changing how he acted. He controlled himself better, and began to make more friends. He became happy, but still resentful of his father. The two didn't fight anymore, and Zeke would simply ignore Micheal if he was drunk. Ezekiel's teenage years became his best, spending his free time with friends, and occasional girlfriends once puberty completely set in. He kept his friends close enough to keep, but was somewhat wary of them, as a possible effect of wariness of his father. At age 14, Ezekiel began signing up for tessary, so his mother could take a few more hours off a week without too much worry for food. Although his mother voiced objections, it was, surprisingly, his father who was more actively against it. In the end, though, Ezekiel was let to take the tessar, for the small amounts of relief it gave.
Weapon: No, but he is very adept at using his hands for disarmament.
District Token: A silver and bronze bracelet of Zeke's mothers, with engravings in the shape of apples along the sides.
Strategy: No clear idea yet, but as stated above, Ezekiel is good at improvising.
Badda-boom.
