Xylos crane has hated the capital since he was a child. His parents? Dead. His older brother? Swinging in the tree. He lived alone for a whole one year before all heck broke loose. A fuming peacekeeper dragged him to the square, and publicly whipped him, for absolutely no reason. With a final devastating count of 30 lashes, he was finally freed. Until later that night, when he killed that peacekeeper. He hid in the woods for seven years, until the day of the reaping, where he was finally found and dragged onstage. He fought desperately, knowing any trip to the arena was a death sentence for him. After taking down multiple peacekeepers, he was finally subdued when a peacekeeper fractured his arm with a baton. It’s healed on the trip, but Xylos still remember. He intends to make the capital pay, and he’s going to do whatever it takes to make that happen
This is for @D0-NN-13’s roleplay, in case anyone was wondering.
