Backstory= There once was a boy named Florian Kelly. He was born into a typical poverty-stricken household in District 8 that just saw Florian as another mouth to feed, and another burden on the family finances. But his parents, being the perserverant people they were, decided to raise him, even though he was a disadvantaged child.

Throughout his very few years of school, Florian's peers and teachers picked up on the boy's intellectual abilities. Since Florian was a more likeable child, all of his peers and teachers didn't make fun of his abilities, but instead help the boy grow his smarts even more. Unfortunately, like most children in the district, Florian was forced to drop out of school at the age of ten in order to work in a clothing factory.

While employed at the clothing factory, Florian gained a huge amount of physical strength. Most people assumed that it was from lifting boxes at the factory, which was partially true, but instead, he spent various hours with the older boys at the factory having wrestling fights. Even though Florian often lost these fights, they helped build up his physical and mental strength, giving Florian a newfound confidence that he never had.

At the age of 14, after taking extra tesserae, Florian was reaped for the Hunger Games. His family was sad for him, but Florian figured that even if he didn't survive, at least he could ensure that his family would get fed for another year or so. In Florian's mind, this was the least he could do to help his poor family.
