Appearance: He is a tall, skinny, lanky and deviously handsome young male aged only twenty. For his age he's tall and, due to lamentable eating habits, is considerably underweight but not at a dangerous level. Well...you can easily feel his jutting ribs beneath his pale skin...so he is considerably underweight. His skin is very pale, his hair is short, somewhat spiky and is a brown colour and his eyes are green, bordering blue with a sharp and alert brightness to them. His face is thin, delicately pointed and has exquisitely prominent cheekbones which enhance his good looks and rather mysterious vibe. Florizel wears grey trousers, a white shirt with a long black trenchcoat on top, a navy blue scarf and black shoes with golden buckles. Scarves are awesome, so don't argue!
Personality: It is made perfectly clear, from first encounters, that Florizel is not a people's person. He's terribly withdrawn and can be described as antisocial, actively avoiding contact or conversation with strangers or the people he dislikes; there are many. He's a high functioning skeptic and will tend to criticise rather than compliment, unless he's in a good mood or particularly likes the thing he's currently looking at or speculating upon. Really, his criticism is just a way to cure his profound boredom, to entertain himself...and to make himself unique...because he believes that all people are different and that differences must be understood, encouraged and accepted. If you manage to become his acquaintance, Florizel proves to be perhaps overly protective, quite quirky and extremely skilled at singing, poetry and artwork. Yes, this skeptical youth loves to sing, and his poetry has the ability to bring forth tears. However, you need to have different qualities, for Florizel holds people to high opinions and only favours friendship upon those whom suit him and whom he genuinely likes and would want to be friends with. Incredibly intelligent, observant and analytical, Florizel will often overthink situations and is always active for he observes all; he could even detect the movement of an ant out of the corner of his eye. He loves quizzes and intellectual puzzles, and may even ask random riddles if he's in a good mood. Yes, if illness causes him to become weary and detached from reality, Florizel may freak out due to his much relied upon senses becoming hazy and weak; he needs his eyes and ears. He's loving over those few close to him, yet can seem callous towards strangers, for he does criticise too often; he laughs at very peculiar situations, finding falling things amusing and can laugh at completely the wrong moment...which he doesn't often find too awkward. Though not overly empathetic to some people, he is sensitive in the way that he can often feel if someone is upset, irritated, angry or feeling some other emotion; and he's often right. It's similar to a sixth sense. He becomes jealous quite easily, yet will expertly hide these feelings and remain calm as ever. He's skilled at appearing collected and cool, though within he may be turmoiling with strife. With his skepticism and coldness comes his temper; he tends to avoid violence and relies more upon his words for he lacks brawn. Yes, 'sticks and stones may break bones, but words can also hurt you'...he states often. He likes justice, and will endeavour to fight for it as passionately as he will fight for his beliefs and friends. However cold and aloof towards humans and others, Florizel really does care; his angsty attitude hides the lonely, insecure and wounded creature beneath
Skills: When lacking in muscle and brawn, Florizel uses a mixture of wit, intelligence and calculating means to defeat his foes...and it often works. He has the ability to look absolutely formidable when angry, and his nails hurt if they happen to lash out at you in rage. He's quite manipulative and callous, and can act very well indeed; his appearance often gets him out of trouble if he's caught out. He writes moving poetry, draws well and sings in an angelic voice. He's also analytical, very agile; he's a fast sprinter and can slip through tiny spaces due to his slender build. He's also discreet, and could get away with almost anything he does; with his charm and coyness
Flaws: He lacks social skills and brawn, thought he states that it doesn't matter tuppence. His cold and skeptical attitude often gives people the wrong impression and due to his quiet personality, he rarely gains proper friends and remains lonely. He's a terrible swimmer, suffers from an absurdly high alcohol intolerance and sometimes is able to suffer from acute panic attacks. Due to scientific issues during an event in his childhood, Florizel suffers from heart complications. They are cumbersome yet not life threatening. Also, due to his eating habits, he's prone to losing weight quickly for he's picky concerning food...very picky
Backstory: His parents were rich; his father a millionaire. At the age of ten, his elder brother and he were fishing within the lake beside their mansion. However, a basking shark native to the lake managed to overturn the boat and Florizel couldn't swim. The boat managed to strike his head and Florizel, stunned, begun sinking. His elder brother sacrificed himself to save Florizel. Florizel awoke upon the shore and, horrified as he recalled the events, dashed round the entire circumstance of the lake, screaming for his brother. Nothing was found, and his parents found him weeping underneath a willow tree. Days later, the elder brother's body was found and Florizel, stricken by the sight, fell into a sudden coma for the corpse of his beloved sibling had sickened him horrifically. For months, Florizel lay comatose within his room, examined by the best doctors his family could provide. However, they couldn't revive the young aristocrat, and could only state their apologies. Florizel dreamed; he dreamt that his brother leant over his bed, and rested a hand upon Florizel's ailing, wounded heart. From that moment, Florizel begun to recover and awoke the next day, determined to live his life. He regained his health, yet suffered chest complications ever since. After those events, his parents begun to argue, and fight. Their love dwindled...and died. Florizel always pretended that this never effected him, yet he felt betrayed, wounded to the core. His parents were in a rather conflicting relationship which resulted in them arguing and disputing with each other; in turn, his childhood was based upon hearing them argue all the time. At age nineteen, he became a freelance detective in his hometown named Selhurst Common. After many successful rumblings of crime and thievery, Florizel became renowned and many fond fellow inhabitants labelled him as being the Fantastic, furtive Florizel Detective. Only months later, he was called to London for there were murders occurring within the great City. Upon arriving, he set up lodgings and begun to investigate, using all his intelligence to track down the murderer. Only days after, Florizel apprehended the murderer and a massive and quite excitable chase occurred on the high rooftops during the night; the murderer seeking to escape. As Florizel, faster than the culprit, caught up, the two engaged in a ferocious fight in which poor Florizel came off worst due to his inferiority in physical violence. The murderer then threw Florizel from the five story building whilst he ran off. But the murderer was blinded in both eyes by the detective's attack and, disorientated, fell and plunged to his death. Florizel was left on the ground, gravely injured and barely alive. It was miraculous that the severely wounded detective was given surgery in time, yet he made a full recovery. He now works in London, in a rented apartment
Other: Florizel is fond of pinching his nails and thinking, he plays the violin moderately well well, likes to subject himself to various experiments which other people disapprove of highly, adores crossword puzzles, has traits of Aspergers and social anxiety. He also has a younger sister named Maria who works for the government and is incredibly proud of her occupation and her intelligence rivals that of her brother's. Also, Florizel has sinus arrhythmia; a heartbeat variation which causes his heartbeat to increase upon inhaling then decrease upon exhaling. I might mention that the condition sometimes hinders him whilst he's trying to breathe deeply in order to calm down
