In his scoreboard, his odds of winning were 15-1.

Interviews

Cornucopia bloodbath
The District 4 male was killed in the initial Cornucopia bloodbath. In the novel, Katniss states that she was surprised to see his face in the sky on the first day, because he was from District 4 and was considered a Career Tribute, like Marvel and Glimmer from District 1 and Cato and Clove from District 2. His district partner, however, survived the bloodbath and moved on to join the Career alliance, only to be killed by a tracker jacker nest Katniss cut down.

In the film, District 4 was not a career district, so he was killed with no surprise when Katniss sees his portrait in the sky. The District 4 male was elevated onto a pedestal on the right side of Rue's pedestal and the left of the District 5 male's pedestal. When the gongs signaled the beginning of the games, the District 4 male jumped over a crate and ran inside the Cornucopia a few seconds after Thresh was already there. He crouched down and acquired a yellow, rolled up sleeping bag before sinking into his hiding spot between stacks of crates. While hiding, he watched the battles while laying his head on his bag. When Glimmer passed by him, he sinks deeper into his hiding spot. He ran out of his hiding spot because he thought everyone was gone, grabbed a small sword off the wall, and looked behind his back all the way towards the mouth of the Cornucopia. When he turned around, Cato, who spotted and confronted him, slashed his throat open with his machete immediately. The District 4 male backed all the way until he hit a crate, splattering and dripping blood onto it before falling onto his left side with his arms still clutching the yellow bag he obtained.

His corpse is the third to be seen, with his body laying lifelessly with his yellow bag lying next to him. When his portrait appears behind Caesar Flickerman and Claudius Templesmith, his portrait shows that he lived up to 1 minute and 18 seconds into the Games before he was killed. At night, his portrait is the second to be seen. He places 14th in the film.

Muttation
Like the rest of the fallen tributes, he had a wolf-like muttation made in his likeness. It is unknown if his mutt survived the final battle at the Cornucopia.

Film portrayal
In the film adaption, he was portrayed by Ethan Jamieson.
