Biography
Panlo grew up in District 9 and became his district's male tribute in the Reaping for the 10th Hunger Games.[1]
Along with the other tributes, Panlo was taken to the Capitol in a dirty cattle car. From there, they were dumped into the monkey house at the Capitol Zoo.[2]
Death
Before the start of the Games, the tributes and their mentors were taken on a tour of the Capitol Arena. During the tour, rebel bombs exploded, heavily injuring the District 9 duo and their mentors. He was denied hospital care, in spite of advice given by the veterinarian. Unlike Otto and Ginnee, the two tributes from District 6, Panlo managed to survive a little longer, but eventually succumbed to his wounds.
His body was later draped on the back of a horse and paraded down Scholars Road during Apollo and Diana Ring's funeral.[3]
Etymology
Panlo's name comes from "pānis", the Latin word for bread. This is the same word that Panem is derived from.
