Name: Gliese Elestren
Age: 15
Gender: Female
District/Area: District 7
Appearance:
Gliese has long, dark auburn hair which ends at about a little below her shoulders. Her eyes are a hazel color, but can be mistaken easily for a greenish-brown color. Her skin is a pale olive tone, freckled around her cheeks. Her nose is small, and freckled as well as her cheeks. She wears black, "geek"-style glasses, which sit on the bridge of her nose because of a lazy eye. Her face is gently curved around her chin, and the edge of her face is quite straight. Her eyebrows are a dark brown color.
Gliese is small for her age- around the average 13-year-old's height to be exactly precise. She is also quite skinny, but not extremely skinny. Her weight is about average for her height. She has a large scar on her arm, shaped like a small acute angle. She has a red birthmark at the top of her forehead, in the shape of an oval. Her plump lips are dry and cracked most of the time, and have a sore at the closing of her mouth. Her lips have a stain of red across the bottom lip, from them bleeding.
Gliese likes to express her humble personality through her clothing. She mostly wears a navy tunic, black leggings or tracksuit bottoms, and a grey hoodie. She can't choose much about her shoes, so she normally has sneakers. Formally (which isn't often), Gliese chooses to wear a navy dress, and her sneakers. Occasionally, she might wear a handmade grey wool beanie with her clothes.
Personality: "Well, how to start this note off? I'm a little socially awkward- ok, maybe MORE than a little, which means I find it hard to make friends." Gliese finds herself put a little lower than most people, causing her to be a little shy when it comes to showing off. She is very humble, believing not to have many things amazing about her. She is a little arrogant if/when people decide to mock her, and if it gets worse she is a little easy to anger.
She is very gullible, and can be tricked easily if one is aimed at her. She is dyslexic and can't write as well as others. She trusts many people, leading to her being a very easy to fool person. She is quite an animal lover, leading to her enjoyment of animals.
"I don't think I'm what you'd call talented at all, actually." Gliese brings herself across as a kind girl, doing a few random selfless acts here and there. She feels that she is a bit "useless"- mostly because she hates to show off. Being fickle is another way to describe Gliese, because she seems to like something one minute, and hates it the next. She has OCD (Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder), so she has to have everything repeated.
History: "I was born on the 8th of March, to Mr and Mrs Elestren. For a while it was just us -Mother, Father and me- until my little sister Spikelet was born two years later -along with my other little sister Laurette- on the 27th December. Mother and Father divorced when I was a little over five, but it didn't affect my life too much. Of course, I missed tall, slightly muscular Father, but at least I still had Mother.
My childhood was quite difficult for me. At school when I was eight, I was called names because of my glasses and hair colour -they called me Carrot-Top and Ginger-Nut, and a nerd- which caused me to be a bit more cautious and socially awkward. I did make a few friends, but they never talked to me much after the whole "bullying" issue. I found my love for knowledge by staying in after school for reading -I loved it so much, that I did it every day. Ever since the bullying, I have had a bit of a temper. I blow my top if somebody so mich as utters a unpleasant word in my direction.
We were never really a RICH family, no. I know Mother had to work even harder after the divorce- but I never realised I would have to start helping her and missing my end of school reading at home. Mother always thought "Laurette would've made a better job, Gliese, dear." or "Gliese, do you call THIS work? You're worse than Spikelet, missy!" which always tore down my confidence bit by bit. I could never get used to being unwanted. Somehow, I just wanted to escape to my young life, with Father and Mother, who always thought I was a lovely, kindly child."
And that leads up to me now, at fifteen years old. I'm still a bookworm, but not as much as I used to be. I feel a bit like the outcast of the house now. Mother rarely pays attention to me -she says I waste too much time on my "pointless" studies- and prefers Spikelet and Laurette. Sometimes I wish I could all start over, you know what I mean? The feeling when you want a totally different life. But I can't really complain. I am who I am- and I will be who I will be. The least of my worries is my home life. What I'm really worried about is the Games. Everyone knows about them -Mother won't let me utter a word of them now- and dread them too. I know, I know, it's not LIKELY I get picked, but it COULD happen. But, if I do, I try and reassure myself- my life could change- forever. I know I have to fight for this. Laurette walks over to me smirking. I never liked Laurette. In fact, I always hated Laurette. She is always trying to get me, and finally I shout back angrily, "Shut up, and stop being such a little brat! I hate you, and I always will!" Spikelet is worse, though. She tells me to shut up. I reply arrogantly that I don't have to. Am I always this way? Will I be?
