NUMBER 4, THE HUMAN EXPERIMENT.

self named "bram", after his love of bram stokers "dracula" ... bram's story follows closely alongside ultion3m's original and hand crafted lore which you can read here. in case you don't feel like following the link and reading elliott's canon, i'll leave a brief summary below, even though i really think you should read it from elliott's own words.

bred, born, and raised by the U.S. government as a genetic project where a group of eleven boys have unique elemental powers at their disposal... bram was counted as number four, and went by the number four for as far back as he can recall, and up until the day he was nearly slaughtered alongside his other peers when– the program that bred and birthed them– was shut down suddenly and unceremoniously.

bram is one of two surivors, though it is not known that bram had survived as he was counted amongst the dead by his would be murdderers after they had failed to kill him. this was likely due to the fear of repercussions the soldiers in charge of murdering the boy and his peers would have faced, for failing.

bram with three bullet wounds, one in his shoulder, second in his abdomen, and third through the cartilage of his ear (leaving him permenantly marred), bram was found by a former army medic currently residing on a nearby military base.

this man was named brian hill, in his mid to late forties with two children who live with their mother, his ex wife.

THE 66TH HUNGER GAMES.

born and raised bran(don) avery gallows of district nine, bran was orphaned and raised shortly after his birth by his father's best friend, sollos: who then did everything and anything for the boy, providing when there was little to provide, and protect when there was a threat. a farmer's ward, they were better off than some in their district with a decent plot of land that brought in good money every harvest. bran was taught hard work and patience, working long hours when outside of his districts schooling, and often attending the markets in their district to sell goods that were not taken and seized for the capitol.

at fifteen years, bran was the unfortunate male pick for tribute of his district for the 66th hunger games. raised as he was: sollos' son in every word but name, bran was well accustomed to hard work and patience. the capitol did not favor him, however, like they did their career tributes and those starlings of the year, anticipated for their displays and feats during the interviews: noel and edle of district seven.

it is during that training amongst all tributes that bran and poppy meet those aforementioned tributes of district seven; a pair with unfortunate attention drawn upon them. edle was a kind girl with black hair, where noel was bold and had eyes burning with hatred; bran will always remember how they looked, softening whenever they saw him specifically… from all the way across the room.

drawn to poppy and bran, the district seven duo allied themselves to the pair before the actual games had begun; teaching each other their skills during and after the interviews, spending their remaining time left pouring into one another whatever they could. bran learned much from noel, and noel much from him.

come time for the games, the arena was discovered to be an icy mountain; within the first few days the environment alone had killed many unprepared tributes who froze to death either outracing the hybrids at the base of the mountain, or the cold they encountered which grew sharper the farther up they went.

as this was a forested arena, noel & his fellow tribute of district seven were well versed ; the weather, not unfamiliar to them. with the cornucopia settled a top a frozen lake at the bottom of the arena, you would think the game makers would make it easy to get to— you'd be wrong. while it was relatively empty upon releasing the tributes, by the end of day one hybrids were realized to push the tributes up the mountain and into the cave system of the moutain or up the sharp and jagged slopes.

separated from poppy and edle, bran and noel paired together from the start ; both looking to each other from their platforms, and running straight for bags and jackets at the cornucopia. this was one of the only bloodbaths that was not a bloodbath at all, nearly each tribute desperate for warmth first rather than focused on killing.

as the games continued and the killing began, bran and noel entered the cave systems of the mountain; mineshafts stretching throughout the mountain creating an interesting course for the viewer. it was in the caves that the pair made their first kill, defending themselves from tributes from district three.

     armed with only one dagger between them, and a jagged rock from the mineshaft floor, they managed to unarm and kill one of the two tributes together; taking his weapons and gear in the process. this was the start of them becoming two of the final four survivors of the 67th hunger games, and a televised romance between bran and noel.

skipping forward to day eighteen, poppy and edle are dead ; while poppy's death is a mystery to the boys... edle's was not. her death was made a brutal spectacle by the careers in the cornucopia, these years tributes with a cruel streak in them. instead of a swift death via weapon or poison, they had crushed her head against the ice of the frozen lake till she was no longer recognizable, and the sheet had cracked from the force, all while she refused to beg, and refused to cry; cursing their names and lives all the while: " YOU'RE ALL GOING TO FUCKING DIE HERE."

blinded by revenge, noel separates from bran while he sleeps: despite his feelings for the other tribute. out of the mineshaft he goes and down the mountain, by the time bran woke and followed after, it was too late. noel was taken hostage by the career tributes of district one, and used him to successfully draw bran out.

once faced with noel with the sharp side of a blade pressed to his throat, bloody and bruised, but not without having taken 3 of the career's fingers and the other unable to see out of her right eye, bran's options have become limited. no longer can he hope the elements or the mutated creatures take them out; no longer can he see an exit where either he lives. instead he sees the end of the road, at least for himself. " remember bran... remember everything that happened here, and make them suffer. " it is then that noel makes a choice that sees a different outcome. he takes the career's wounded hand, the one holding the blade, and cuts his own throat- staining bran's face red with arterial spray.

once the ice is stained with noel's remaining blood, when the snow has melted into red sleet and the shock has left the remaining three tributes: the fight for victor begins. taking two on one, though the two far more injured than the one, bran enters combat with them both at once— circled by them, like wolves hunting a hare. only where noel had never been anything but a wolf too, bran adopted the same.

killing the first of the two other tributes when the career lunged for him, bran pierced him with a climbing spike he obtained from halfway in the games through his open mouth, the makeshift weapon sticking out the back of his head. after him, the girl screams in rage— bran already in the process of removing the climbing spike from the male tributes head, is slammed backwards, his skull colliding with the ice painfully leaving him dazed... it is here that she pins him to the ice with a sword through his hand, and the capitol cheers for another career victor in early celebration.

left to howl in pain, she sits a top him in sick self assured victory. cackling even as his cries die down, his hand still wrapped around the spike, uses it to pierce the sheet of ice beneath them with it. with a loud crack, they drop into frigid waters, the ice he was pinned to, dragging him downward while the girl flounders. wearing thick clothes she had obtained from the cornucopia, she is weighed down and joins bran in the deep waters turned red by bran's blood. with the capitol holding their breaths, sollos praying to god to save the boy he raised. bran takes the sword out of his hand, and runs her through with it; sinking further to the bottom beside her after, he is rescued from the waters by the game makers as the girl's canon sings.
