Titus Erickson

Titus Erickson (19 December 19 AS  – 19 June 1  PS ) was the male tribute from District 6 in the 1st Hunger Games. Originally from Titan Heights, he was 18-years-old and was studying to become a train conductor prior to being reaped for the games.

In the games, Erickson was the thirteen tribute killed. Immediately after the games began, he ran away from the cornucopia into the woods, where he regrouped with Franka Jespers, whom he knew personally prior to the games. They survived in their camp for the first night, but the following day while looking for food, Erickson was killed by a trap built by Lora Lilson of District 7 and Lea Tomms of District 8, set for the Careers.

Early life
Erickson was born in Titan Heights, District 6 to parents Gregg and Alexandrea Erickson, and was raised in the Nightwatch neighborhood. His father is a train manufacturer, while his mother is a train conductor. Erickson is the eldest of four sons; his younger brothers include Magnus, Jeremie, and Shawn.

Reaping
At the District 6 reapings, Erickson was reaped for the games. As District 6 is a district where children are not eager to be reaped, there were no volunteers to take his place. The escort for District 6 was Bannah Rodd, while the female tribute reaped for the games was Franka Jespers.

Opening ceremony
In the opening ceremony, Erickson was styled by the District 6 head stylist Palina Rae. As District 6's industry is transportation, Rae designed a train conductor costume for her tributes. They placed 11th out of 12.
