Elliot Gallio

Details

Elliot doesn't appear to be the strongest kid on the agrarian ring. He's musular, but he will always be a tall, lanky and clumsy. He has dirty blonde hair and pale blue eyes with tanned arms.  

Elliot his brain is all over the place. He talks a mile in a minute and gets distracted by the smallest things when it's not interesting. He's quite energetic and he's usually the one you ask for help because he has a kind and open face compared to his older brother. He sees the good in everyone and finds it difficult to realise that there can be people with bad intentions instead of good ones.  

When he was ten years old his oldest brother Rafael died and for a long time Elliot wasn't sure how he was supposed to feel. Grief isn't something you're taught at that age and whilst he was sad he was also, somewhere deep inside his young selfish brain, glad that it happened. His other brother, Thiago, helped their father on the farm a lot more and almost all of the attention went to Elliot. A selfish way of thinking, but he was young and confused about everything that had happened. How his life changed so suddenly and everything became grim.

Now that he's older he's able to realise that that way of thinking wasn't a healthy way of coping with the grief, but the new way he found wasn't much better. At fourteen years old he realised that there were places in the lower ring where you could bet on horses, where you could gamble and if you did it right you would get double the amount of money. Money, beers, attention. It was everything he thought he needed at that point, it still is in his mind.

He still gambles at twenty years old which leaves them with little to no money for food and clothes.
