Wesley Pierre

Wesley Pierre (3 November 16 AS  – 20 June 1  PS ) was the male tribute from District 5 in the 1st Hunger Games. Originally from Elsing, he was 15-years-old and was studying to become a power plant employee prior to being reaped for the games.

In the games, Pierre was the eighteenth tribute killed. Immediately after the games began, he ran away from the cornucopia and into the woods. Using his camouflage skills, Pierre was able to stay hidden for several days in the woods, without being noticed. Following the death of her friend Lora Lilson of District 7, Lea Tomms of District 8 came into contact with Pierre. They began talking, and agreed to work together. The following day, they realized that they had fallen in love, and did not want to win if that meant the other had to die. Due to this, they both tied rocks to their ankles and jumped in a nearby pond, both committing suicide.

Early life
Pierre was born in Elsing, District 5 to parents Albert and Roma Pierre. Both of his parents work at power plants. Pierre has an elder sister: Georgia.
