Appearance: Lunaii

Backstory: Ransom grew up as an orphan in a tough area of District 7. There, people were killed often and not being robbed for a day was a blessing. He taught himself how to fight and protect himself. By the age of 7, he could easily lift and swing an axe with ease. He trained in solitude, not wanting anyone to see him. It was then he met her. When he was 14, he wasn't as careful as he was before to cover his trail. He was suprised to see a girl about his age watching him as he threw an axe, making a large scar within a tree. As it turns out, this girl has been watching Ransom for a while. Ransom was shocked before finally sighing. He began to laugh and he announced his name to the girl. When he was about to ask the girl for her name, she said she had to go. She was agile and she went away quickly. Something felt different inside Ransom. His heart was pounding and he felt hot and a little flustered. At first, he thought he had a cold. He then realized this wasn't the case as he never got sick. He walked back and forth, wondering what was this feeling he was feeling. He came to an arupt stop when he realized. He was in love. He decided to tell the girl later and he went into his treehouse that he conjured up. He awoke later in the morning. He felt a tinge of sadness in the air. Alarmed, he got dressed and he ran to town as fast as he could. He saw a couple of folks trying to put out a fire as they counted the dead. It was then, he recognized one of them as the girl he met yesterday. As it turns out, she was the daughter of a family in debt and their house was burnt to ashes as well as their bodies. He collapsed on the floor, crying. He was later adopted by a family, who took pity on the child, and he moved to a better, more friendly part of D7. He became popular quickly and he gained many friends. He never forgot about the girl though and he still trained, as a part of her memory. When he was reaped, no one volunteered. He wasn't surprised but he was glad he was reaped. If he won, he could have enough power to avenge the girl's death. If he lost, he will die.
