District 5 male (74th HG)

The District 5 male was the male tribute from District 5 who participated in the 74th Hunger Games.

Tribute Parade
During the Tribute Parade, he and Foxface wore shiny and flashy silver costumes that represent District 5's main export, power and electricity.

Interviews
For the interviews with ‎Caesar Flickerman, he wore a pink suit. When Foxface has her interview with Caesar Flickerman, the District 5 male's face is shown on the screen behind along with Foxface.

Bloodbath
The District 5 male died in the initial bloodbath. He was on the right of the District 4 boy on the pedestals. He fought for supplies along with most of the other tributes. During the battle, he targeted the District 3 female, attacking her with his weapon, and killing her. He was spotted by the District 7 male inside the cornucopia, and two had a brief struggle before he began to strangle him with his hands. The District 5 male eventually gained the upper hand, and repeatedly smashed his attacker's head into a nearby supply crate. It is unknown who killed him, or the means of his death. His face was seen by Katniss Everdeen on the first night of the games.

Muttation
After his death, the District 5 male, like all the other dead tributes, had his DNA mixed with a wolf to form a muttation which had similar characteristics to the fallen tribute. It's unknown if his mutt survived the fight.
