Life was given to me on a golden platter. Everything I wanted I had, if I didn't then someone payed dearly. If there is one thing I have learned it is that money is power. As long as you hold it you get whatever the hell you desire. You stay on the good side of the Capitol they reward you, they actually pretend to care about you. Well I don't give a damn if they care about me and my family or not. All that matters to me is my eternal control of my family's wealth, of our power.
You see I was born into the best of all the families in district four, best in my opinion at least. Either way we are one of, if not the wealthiest family in the district. Our wealth comes from our massive control over many of the pearling industries in four. We give our finest pearls straight to the Capitol. In return they give us well deserved money which in turn gives us our power. My power.
Thanks to this power as I rightfully mentioned early I get anything and everything I want. No matter what the price is it can be paid. Also I am cared for kindly for by my dear servants. They do as I command and in return we keep them off the streets. That is how nearly all of the "workers" on our estate come to join us. We save them off the streets give them a home and in return they do our bidding. They are always welcome to leave of course, but none ever do. To go from the best to the worst is one painful fall from what I have seen in my seventeen years.
Now many would question how my family has not been decimated by the Capitol because of our wealthy power. Well in fact it is quite simple, we have made it clear on every occasion we have no intention of ever harming the Capitol. In fact in times of great need we donate massive amounts of money for new things the Capitol wants. We are the humble minor lords of the Capitol. As long as we keep our powers and we let them keep their's the relationship works.
In case you haven't been able to notice I am incredibly pompous and cocky. However I am proud to own up to it for it makes me the powerful man I am today. Also my Mother once told me never to hide behind a mask. She said they should know who they are fearing when they dare to look at me. Ha, of course they wouldn't. I never leave the estate unless its reaping day. Other than that I stay locked away in my paradise away from the savages of the world.
Also something that is well known about me is my jealousy. Oh it is quite harsh I have to say. In fact I get so jealous that once when my parents approached seven year old me about having another child I screamed at them and kicked my Mother. They were so shocked they never did have the child which is quite fine by me. I get the throne to my family undisputed and I get all the attention from my parents that I could ever want.
One final important trait about me is that I plainly am evil. Some people might believe that no one can truly be evil but that is bull shit. Oh and I have plenty of proof about it too. For example one foolish kid on my first reaping day accidentally knocked me over and had the rude nature to help me back up! Therefore instead of grabbing the kid's hand I grabbed his color and punched the crap out of him until his nose started bleeding. Luckily after that point people learned their lessons about crossing a true king.
If I am being honest I truly do have the looks of an admirable king. For starters I have gorgeous golden waves of hair that always sit pristine upon my head, a hair can never be out of place. Also my eyes gleam brilliantly with the intensity of a blue flame. However I must say I do have a horrible flaw that I can't stand every passing day looking at. This flaw would be a long scar going from my right eyebrow down and over my eye to just the middle of my cheek. Oh now how I got that is one hell of a story. You see I was playing with on of my cousins when we were eleven. Naturally we had already started basic career training to we were sparring with wooden swords. However I got bored very quickly so we sneakily used some of my Father's real swords. Alas my damned cousin foolishly hit my face. Luckily my eye was closed and he was weaker than a granny in the ocean or I could have lost my eye. Oh do not fear though he received a deserving punishment. One my parents do not allow me to repeat, no he isn't dead if you thought that. We would never spray the golden blood of another Osarion.
Anyway to get back on track about me, I currently stand about 5'10 and weigh approximately 167 pounds. As for my attire I only wear the finest of things. Fine silk clothing purchased from the Capitol in exchange for pearls. Sadly those deals do not happen very often since usually it is just payment from the richest of customers. Yet still as I mentioned a king can only wear kingly clothes. Also before you ask yes I do wear a gold crown lined with pearls. A king can not be all powerful unless his image is complete with a crown.
I cannot wait for the day until I finally rule my family. When I will have no limitations... I constantly find myself loathing when my parents attempt to deny me things. Sure I get almost everything I want but my parents do hold me back from some things. Such as other fine young people of my age that I would love to get to know better. Sadly they make sure I stay "pure" for my true love. It is complete rubbish. Rubbish I will never use on my children. They will always get just whatever they want because Osarions never take no for an answer.
