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.

Cornucopia Bloodbath
The District 5 male was killed in the initial  Bloodbath. He stood on the pedestal next to the  District 4 male. Like majority of the tributes, he ran for supplies. After arriving at the Cornucopia, he spots the  District 3 female on the ground with a black backpack. He grabs a sickle, slashes her throat and steals her bag. The District 7 male confronts him and kncoks him down with a spear, about to kill him. Fortunately, Thresh passes by distracting the District 7 male. He crawls away, but is attacked by Jason, who strangles him onto a crate. He gains advantage and hurls the District 6 male's head into the crates. He runs out of the cornucopia, but the District 8 female slashes his leg open, causing him to fall to the ground in pain. Cato then digs his machete into his chest and kills him.

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 or not.
