Ten Facts:

1. Though you wouldn't know it by looking at him, Florian is an excellent dancer.

2. One of Florian's favorite pastimes is sitting in on the lords' meetings, but after one too many peanut gallery comments, Roderick has officially banned him.

3. Florian's favorite part of sex? The sounds Thetis makes.

4. Whenever there's a fire in a nearby forest or field, Florian sits on his roof and watches. Don't ask.

5. All babies look the same to Florian. If his own baby was placed in a room with a bunch of other babies, he would have trouble finding it.

6. Florian thinks that Holladrin is attractive, but not as attractive as Thetis.

7. Secretly, Florian loves baking, and delights in the fact that his kids give him an excuse to bake without making it look as if it was his idea. His pumpkin loaf is to die for.

8. For Falidor's twenty-sixth birthday, Florian sent a prostitute to his house. When Falidor sent her away, Florian got offended and refused to speak to him for a week.

9. With all the time he spends with the nobles, Florian has developed something of a social-climbing agenda. He secretly aspires to marry off one of his sons to one of Octavius's daughters, so that his son can become a knight and live in a castle. He plans to hold underground animal races in the dungeon of said castle.

10. In any given week, Florian wears underwear about two days out of seven.

Notable Quotes:

"So tell me, are you the man who's been sleeping with my wife?"
--to Severin, from "In Which Florian's Peace Is Disturbed" (December 1155)

Electra: It shouldn't matter whether it's Thetis or the queen; if we have company, you greet them with your pants on.
Florian: From what I've heard of the queen, she'd be taking my pants off anyway.
--from "In Which Florian Discovers a Butterfly" (June 1156)

"[Setran]'s so patient, and the woman who's nursing him says he's a much more cooperative eater than her own baby. Not that I blame that other boy--I wouldn't suck those tits for all the money in Naroni. If anything, my son's got absolutely bizarre taste."
--to Electra's grave, from "In Which Thetis Expresses Herself" (October 1156)

"Sure. It's sex. It's the best thing in the world. Whatever."
--to Thetis, from "In Which Florian Sees a Black World" (January 1157)

Tavrin: You no 'member me, yes?
Florian: Remember? When the hell did we meet? I think I'd remember some painted, nudist midget with God-awful grammar if I met one.
--from "In Which Florian Receives a House Call" (January 1158)

Medea: [Medea's mother] had no time to play, and I understood that. Therefore, I expect my children to understand that I have much more important things to do.
Florian: Ah yes, I've forgotten how the kingdom as we know it will cease to exist if you don't sit on that couch and stare blankly ahead of you.
--from "In Which Medea Looks into the Mirror" (February 1158)

"Bastard. Someone should tie his cock to a horse and poke it in the ass with a lance."
--about Norwan, from "In Which Severin Finds an Exception" (July 1158)

Florian: So... you'll only stay if I marry you?
Thetis: Well, I didn't say that, but I guess that's the case.
Florian: That's mean.
--from "In Which Florian's Reputation Is Saved" (December 1158)

"Er, what... kind is it?"
--inquiring about the gender of his first child with Thetis, from "In Which Florian Sees Old Eyes on a New Face" (February 1159)

"Great. Just great; that's two consecutive chaste wedding nights for me. Two! The next time I get married, there'd better be sex--and it better be mind-blowingly good."
--from "In Which Florian Sees Old Eyes on a New Face" (February 1159)

"Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go home and have sex with my wife."
--from "In Which Florian Finds a New Fragility" (June 1161)

"Alsina... you should really put a robe on. It's just not decent, standing around a sitting room practically naked."
--while half-naked himself, from "In Which Aldhein Scares Himself" (August 1163)

"Don't worry, Falidor! I'll get there in time to save you and your children--but hopefully not in time to save your wife as well!"
--after being falsely told by Ceidrid that Falidor's house is on fire, from "In Which Ceidrid Is an Upstanding Citizen" (April 1164)
