Appearance:
Sorr's defining feature is his height. At 6'3", he towers over most people in the District; Almost everyone, really, except his father. He is almost rediculously lanky, most of his height composed of his legs, with equally long arms.Personality:
His other physical traits are borne from his work on his father's ranch. Sorr's hair is naturally dark brown, but is slightly sun-bleached into a lighter color. His skin is a light tan and sparingly freckled, since he prefers to work in long sleeves and pants, preventing a darker skin tone. As for muscles... He's defined, but not anywhere near large or bulky.
Sorr's hair is a little bit on the longer side, coming down to about an inch below the bottom of his ears, which stick out at an awkward angle. He's not necessarily attractive, but has a sort of look that with a little primping could win over anyone. His smile also falls under this description- attractive, but it rarely ever shows.
Sorr's eyes are a deep green, the same color as the one long-sleeved shirt he is normally seen wearing. No one in the district is really sure whether it's all the same shirt or he owns multiple articles that all look the same.
Sorr is pretty quiet, interacting with only those people that he needs to or deems interesting enough to talk to. When he does interact with people, he tends to be sarcastic and distant.History:
Every once in a while though, there's someone he opens up to. To whichever person happens to be lucky enough to see this side of him, Sorr is an almost too loyal friend. For the people who he trusts, he would gladly give himself over to protect them if it is within his power.
First the basics. For his entire life, Sorr has been working on his father's farm, raising mostly sheep and goats- pretty boring compared to the other creatures raised in the 5th District, but handy. Because wool-producing animals are so in demand by District 8, the Sorrin's are one of the wealthier families in the district.Codeword: muttations
As for the rest of his family... There is only his Father. His father is a large man, and is over-protective of his son, whom he will always refer to as Gabriel even though to other people, his son is Sorr. Sorr and his father get along, but don't interact much apart from business, Sorr prefering to keep to himself when he's in the house. Also, Sorr makes trips down to District 8 to deliver livestock when an order calls for it, and therefore often goes back and forth between 5 and 8.
His mother... Sorr never knew his mother, and doesn't really care. According to his father, Mrs. Sorrin ran off when she heard of remnents of the Rebellion, and hasn't been heard of since. Whether successful in her search for the Rebel Camp or dead, they do not know. Either way, Sorr has lived without her this long, he doesn't feel the need to track her down now.
Gabriel Sorrin also once had a sister named Rella. Two years prior, when he was fourteen and she was twelve, she was chosen as the female Tribute for the District, and was dead before the first night of her games. Before this incident, Gabriel was a bright, open young teen, but closed off after Rella's death. Instead of mourning, Sorr became an introvert, spending less and less time with people and more time working on the ranch. Because of this tragedy, he becomes even more reclusive when the Hunger Games return for the year. At the reaping, he turns so disconnected that even if they pulled his name he probably wouldn't hear it. He may be forced to watch the games by Capitol laws, but when he does he is just staring at the screen, processing nothing.
And that's his opinion of the game: Apathy.

As for romantic relationships... Sorr is bisexual, but would it would be hard to make him open up enough to really date.
