Personality:
Trey has a full head of hair. It curls nicely down to his ears when he keeps it long, or is cut nicely like your average boy’s hair cut. His hair strands are colored a deep brown and they easily match his chocolate brown eyes. His hair has always been a curly mess, ever since he was a child. It might be his Jewish roots, but no one has really bothered to find out. As his years aged, the problem disappeared by itself, so there was really no need to worry. His hair flattened out, letting of course a few curls by, and became thicker and thicker until Trey cut it back. Overall his hair is thick but short.
Other than his hair, nothing really sticks out about him more than his smile. During his adolescent years, Trey went through years of braces. They really seemed to pay off. His lips are thinner than most, so his teeth really shine through. He isn’t too keen on sharing his smile, but when he does, his whole face lifts up and joy radiates from his body. If only Trey would smile more…
His nose was a bit pokey in the middle of his face, maybe one of his more dramatic features. Against his softly defined cheekbones, it really stood out. His eyebrows creased a bit much, so whenever he stared off into space, he looked as though he was concentrating extremely hard. However, when he really was lost and confused, his eyebrows would raise and he they would almost float away. His mouth would also turn, and his facial expression could be described as someone hopelessly in love. It wasn’t exactly the most helpful features to his body. His ears were also a bit large for his head. They weren’t exactly noticeable, but when he was little, they were extremely noticeable, and Trey has been sensitive about them ever sense. His mother laughed at him, but Trey couldn’t resist. He felt better when his hair fluffed down his forehead, easily covering his eyes and ears. But his mother hated that and magically cut it with her wand when he wasn’t paying attention. He would get extremely annoyed whenever she did this.
His family owned a farm. They had lots of chores to do, and from the moment Trey could walk, he had to help his family with them. They started small: feed the chickens and collect the eggs. But as he grew, his work became harder and harder labor. At fourteen years old, Trey was already building fences and working the cattle. He envied his neighbors who had large families. It was just his parents and him, but it would build his body up if he did the work. Over the course of his life, he built up his muscles to peak condition. However, he wasn’t your average body builder. He was around 5’7 at about 150 pounds. He was lean but carried obvious muscle in his legs and arms. He sported a pretty good six pack too. He was always one for sports, his father taught him how to play and Trey instantly fell in love. He liked soccer a lot. Now that he was older however, he embraced working on the farm and really enjoyed the solitude of it all.
Trey is an interesting teenager. He is quiet, but not shy. In school, he'd rather learn his books than make a scene with the other kids his age. He enjoyed learning, a lot, and learning about everything there was to know, about science especially. He was always one step ahead of the average child, and he enjoyed that about himself. He was never cocky about his studies, but it felt good inside to learn something new. When he was a boy, he made a promise to himself to try and learn a new fact every day. He managed to do this by finding a new question to ask someone ever day. When his teachers would get annoyed with his questions, he'd turn to someone else. He was always constantly on the quest to learn something new. Reading is another hobby of his. He loves a good book and would often read his books long into the night. He enjoyed fiction books and dreaming of a better life off on a fantastic adventure. He would often dream of some great adventure that he would soon embark on, if only he could leave his district.History:
Trey is an animal person, growing up with animals will do that to you, but he especially loves horses. His family has two, and he could not get enough of them. He enjoys riding horses and herding the cattle that his family keeps. He also has a dog named Sparky. Trey can be found with his animals in his spare time. He enjoys being around them because he feels like he’ll never be judged harshly because of them. His parents are more into the cattle than the horses, so Trey has grown up with taking care of them and loves them more than anything. He takes a special bond to the gelding Roan, and loves to ride him bareback around the property, or even down to the market area. Despite being quiet, he makes himself pretty well known by riding around on his horse. He often is stopped in the market and questioned for what he thinks he’s doing. Trey usually just shrugs and says he’s making a sale in market. He uses his horse to pack what he plans on selling to the marketers.
The boy is a hopeless romantic. He enjoys girls and making them feel special. He is known to be a heart breaker, because he tends to lead people on while he searches for his soulmate. He’s always out there looking for the one, as crazy as that is at his age. He’s dumb though, he can’t deny that he’ll fall quickly, but soon learn that the girl is not what he is looking for at all. Sometimes it takes him months to discover this. As sad as that is, he has lead on multiple girls and broken many hearts. He might be considered selfish, but he feels that he can’t help but follow his heart. Even if that means he is quite a dumb teenage boy. At least he isn’t purposely using the girls, right? At least he hasn’t taken anyone’s virginity, because he is actually still a virgin. This boy has never fallen in love. He has been lusting after many, but never has he truly fallen before.
Trey was born into his family on October 29th. He was raised in his home on a large cattle farm with his mother and father. He has no siblings because his parents couldn’t deal with another child after struggling so largely trying to raise Trey. It was quite difficult tending to the animals and raising a young infant. The family has so many cows that having Trey was quite an inconvenience to the family. By the time Trey was old enough to start being helpful on the farm, the couple’s dream of having a large family was gone, and they were perfectly happy with their young son. They were thrilled with how much of a polite gentleman he was turning out to be. They were also quite happy with how much he loved to learn. They never had to nag at him to finish homework, or worry about him having bad grades. He enjoyed going to school and found happiness in learning about the world.Codeword: oDair
As he grew, the family’s farm also grew, and the family had quite a fair amount of money. They weren’t exactly rich, but with the small family, Trey was never left hungry. They always had enough food to eat and Trey could concentrate on what he wanted to do in his life. He was well aware of the Hunger Games, as everyone was, but he couldn’t help but think that his name wouldn’t be drawn. He needed to believe that in order to keep going with his life. So far, he has been lucky. That was another reason his parents didn’t want anymore kids. They wanted to keep their chances of their children going to the games low. Who had heard of a farmer boy winning anyway? Trey had watched a friend get killed in one of the previous games, and he could never forget the pain in his heart when he thinks about his lost friend.
His present days have been simple. He’s been swamped with school and learning about the history of this world that they live in. He was learning about the United States of America. What a funny thing. Trey couldn’t imagine a life without the Hunger Games. It could be a great place, the country united together. But, there was no going back. Trey knew that and he was just caught dreaming again. He currently enjoyed riding his horse Roan and herding the cattle more than anything. A typical day for him was school, and then going home to ride and do chores, and then end the night with a nice book.
If only it was that simple. His family ranch was lost when the oil industry appeared in District 5. No more cows are on the Jackson family property. Of course, Trey refused to sell his horses, much to his family's annoyance. His father let him have them and got a job rigging oil with every other past farmer in the district. Trey was angry, he liked his simple life of being a farmer's boy. This new life style change was quite dramatic for him and he wasn't sure he wanted a part in it. He still had his horses though, and the cattle were so much work. This could be better off for his family. In a couple years he could join the oil rigging company and earn his own profit. It'd be a real job, something he was lacking in currently.
