Name: Whisper Raleigh

Preferred District: 12

Age: 15

Gender: Male

Personality: People that don't really know him might think of him as a little unsocial and cold. Once you get to know him you'll see he's very kind and loyal. He would never let any of him friends down. He likes being alone just as much as being with his friends and spends much of him time reading. In large groups of people he tends to listen more than talk, and thinks twice before saying anything at all. He loves to be the one with all the answers whenever him friends have questions. He is found awake more often at night time than at day time.

Appearance: Whisper is an average sized, boy with lightly tanned skin. Whisper also has chopped a midnight jet black hair, and blue eyes. Whisper is also 5'4 and 89 pounds.

History/Background: Whisper's father, Cole, is a poor minder from the steam, often being covered from head-to-toe in coal and having no more then two or three coins in his pocket before and after. He often starved for a day at a time, when he does get food it's only a few ounces of grain or beyond edible. His mother, Brooke, began to try and get as many jobs as she could, so Whisper didn't have to go without food for so long. Soon later, his baby sister and brother, Flare and Vine, were born and his family went even more poor. His mother went ill, and lost a large amount of where the income came from. Whisper began to ran away and hide in the merchants area and steal whenever the people turned their backs. He was doing this for a few years before he was caught and whipped, he was only seven at the time. His mother passed away at age 9, and so did his trust in anyone, but his few select friends and family.

Important Friends and Family:

Brooke: 45. Brooke is a woman of average height. She had fair skin and long, light, wavy blonde hair down to her back, which she usually had tied in a knot in the back and bangs down to her chin in the front. Very sweet and kind and can't be mean to anyone. She can be somewhat of a pushover but at the same time very motherly.

Colten: 8. Colten is very hyper and outgoing, frequently getting on the nerves of others. Often asking the same question ten times. (Example: "Ma, whats that cup holding clear water thingy called?" (Glass cup.) "Pa? Whats that hot, red, flamey thing called?" (Fire.))

Flare: 8. Flare is cheerful and loves to eat something sweet, but she hates it if her weight increases. She is also a little tomboyish and can be a little too hyper. Flare still cares about Colten and Whisper and would feel bad if their ignoring or not talking to her.

Friend:

Lyric Karma: 17. Her life is as poor as Whisper's is. A few years ago, while Whisper was trying to break into a house, a dog came running around a corner and attacked him, he was injured and probably almost dead, if Lyric didn't throw rocks at the dogs and scare him off. She picked the boy up and took him to a broken house (which he later turned out to be hers.), and began to clean the small marks on his face. He began to cry, unlike himself, but he was afraid that he was going to die. He began to tell her a story about how he was born in a crappy life, had food that rats wouldn't even eat, and had lost his mother. She sat there, listening and nodding her head, connecting a bit with him.

Strengths (3 of them): He was good at thieving as well, since he and Lyric began to steal. He has an innocent facade. Whisper is not a melee fighter, and so the slingshot was a natural choice. He can go long periods without eating. Great liar.

Weaknesses ( 3 of them): He can't trust anyone, after the death of his mother. Whisper has one obvious weakness: his complete lack of orientation. He often demonstrates that he can easily get lost everywhere and always walks in the wrong direction. He even sometimes walks the wrong way when having his target in plain sight, looking for shortcuts. Can't kill.
