Florin is a strange and mysterious man the others know very little about. He seems to appear and disappear on a whim, and never likes to stay in one place for too long. He always has a dangerous aura around him, and there's always a lingering scent of blood on him.

Where he came from, and what his objective is, no one can even guess. Villain or ally, Florin doesn’t really seem to care one way or another. All that seems to matter to him is what his next meal is going to be.

Florin is the type of guy to never say what he truly means. He’s always talking vaguely and laughing at those who appear confused by his antics. He doesn’t really like involving himself with others, so he tends to act in ways to intentionally drive people away. He puts himself before others and does whatever he wants whenever he wants. There may be a small part of him that hates the isolation he’s created for himself, but he would never admit that.

Florin was born in a remote part of heaven, a place where other angels were scarce. The village he was born to was made up entirely of fallen angels, and he was no exception. It was a fairly peaceful village, most conflicts being resolved by talking to one another rationally. Their life was so normal, it was strange they insisted on living so far from others. As a child, Florin wondered why exactly they were stranded so far from others of their kind. Even if they were fallen, wasn’t there a way to redeem themselves and regain their angel status? When Florin brought these concerns up with the others though, they usually just laughed and told him to wait. He would understand in time.

There was one aspect of his village he didn’t quite understand. Every year, the adults and older children would gather in an otherwise unused building and stay there all night. Whenever asked about what they were doing, the ones who went brushed the questions off. Finally, when Florin turned 10 years old, he was allowed to participate.

The Ritual

One thing Florin did understand about his clan was that they hated humans. From an early age, Florin was taught that humans were dirty, and undeserving of God’s love. While God may have chosen the humans over them, angels were still superior. Humans, although loved more by God, could not always see God’s love and frequently sinned. They disobeyed Him and lived their life freely, something angels could never do. Florin wasn’t sure he quite agreed with the elder’s feelings, but it was something he never tried to fight.

Thus, when it was time, Florin gathered in the building along with all the others that were old enough to be there. And finally, Florin understood everything. Inside the building lay a deceased human’s body. The clan’s leader cut the body into neat pieces, and the flesh was divided evenly among those attending the ritual. Florin was nervous about eating it at first. This was the body of a person- someone that realistically wasn’t all that different from them. Still though, he consumed his piece with the rest of the clan… And it was the most delicious thing he ever ate.

Descend into Madness

Once experiencing his first ritual, it became Florin’s favorite time of the year. The taste of humans was unlike anything he’d ever tasted before, and he couldn’t get enough. He quickly noticed though that he was the only one who felt this way. Everyone else only did what they “had to” to prove their superiority. Prove to themselves that humans were nothing more than their flesh and could do nothing for God with their weakness. It was only Florin that actually enjoyed the ritual. He knew he had to hide these feelings, but it got harder and harder every year to contain himself. Hh longed for humans. More than once a year, he needed more.

It was around his 15th birthday that Florin started sneaking down to earth to hunt humans. He only meant to do it once, just to get the urge out of his system, but once he did it one time the temptation to do it again only rose. So again he did it. And again. And again. After a short time, he was making regular visits to earth for humans. Once his clan found out, they called him a monster and exiled him. While Florin didn’t really think what he was doing was any worse than what they did, he wasn’t too sad to leave. Now he had more time and freedom to do as he pleased. No longer did he have to hide himself. So he decided to stay on earth. Move around, taste all sorts of humans he never got the chance to try before. Since then, he’s been traveling all around earth. For now, he lingers around a college campus to hunt the local girls.
