~Appearance~
Florian stands at around 5’11 and has a lean body with some well-defined muscle. His skin is smooth and clear with a porcelain color, no tattoos or piercings whatsoever.
He’s got a clean-shaven, heart-shaped face with a defined jawline. Florian’s nose is straight and on the smaller side, same goes for his lips, they are rather thin and small, with his bottom lip being just slightly larger than the top one. Whenever the man smiles or laughs, you can see dimples on both sides of his face.
On the tip of his nose he has a small mole that looks a lot like something that was just drawn on with a black sharpie, many seem to find it cute and charming but he’s never liked it and whenever he’s tried having it removed, it has just come back.
Flo’s eyes are almond shaped with a blueish grey color and a few specks of golden brown in them.
He has flowy light blond hair and keeps it medium-length and in a side part, swept lazily to the right.

When it comes to clothing, one can describe his clothing style as business casual. You’ll most likely find him wearing a dress shirt or a turtle neck, paired with a pair of jeans and a coat.
As for accessories, he usually wears a watch on his right arm and a silver ring with his family crest on his left index finger.

~Personality~
Florian is a hardworking guy and he loves to help others, rarely putting himself first. He'd never ask for help himself but he won't hesitate to help others, he wants to do good and make sure that other people have it well before he focuses on himself.

He’s a rather sociable person who doesn’t shy away from conversation and he actually hates it when it gets too quiet, unless he’s working. It’s almost like flipping a switch when the man starts working, he goes from chatty and cheerful to quiet and extremely focused within seconds.
When he isn’t working though, he loves to talk and mess around, never missing the chance to crack a joke. He tends to be able to lighten the mood or start a conversation with someone just about anywhere.

To think that he’s a grown man with a job and his own place is hard sometimes, especially when he gets all excited about the smallest, and sometimes ridiculous, of things, he’ll turn into a little kid and at times even get so riled up that he'll barely listen to anything being said to him.

Florian is used to doing things his own way and most of his life, he’s just been left to do so, so when someone tells him he can’t do things a certain way, he’ll ask a billion questions as to why not.
He does have a tendency to be a bit impulsive, acting first and dealing with the consequences later.

While he’s not the most emotional person, he does sometimes let his emotions get to him. If he’s had a fight with someone or something sad has happen, you’ll notice a shift in his behavior immediately and he can go almost a whole day without speaking much and just be in an overall bad mood.
He’s not easy to anger though, you can be inches from his face and yelling, cussing him out and he’ll just stare at you and wait for you to finish, but seeing him angry is not fun and it’s a completely different side of him that few get to see.

~Backstory~
The man comes from a rather rich and successful family but he’s never taken any interest in the family business himself and has always chosen his own path so he’s not very involved in any of the business and he has little to no contact with his family any longer, only speaking to them occasionally and going to family dinners every now and then, but he tends to try and avoid talking to them.
~
Florian’s childhood wasn’t the easiest to say the least, he rarely talks about it and most of the time he’s able to act as if everything was fine. He’s chosen to put it all behind himself and try to forget but sometimes it gets hard for him to ignore it all.

The most he’ll tell others is that he lived in the Netherlands for the first few years of his life, being raised by his grandparents before moving to the U.S to be with his parents and sister.

(Oh it's great! Thanks for starting us of)

The smell of cigarette smoke filled the blond haired man's nose as he watched people on the street. Florian had never been much of a smoker, he’d tried it once or twice but he never understood the charm of it.
The young man shifted his gaze and looked at the man beside him, who was also the source of the cigarette smoke, Tommy. The two had met during training at the academy, hitting it off almost instantly, and now they had been assigned to start working on the force in the same precinct.
“You look really calm, aren’t you even slightly nervous?” The question came from Tommy and Florian just smiled at him.
“Hmm no, I’m really excited though, it’ll be fun to finally start doing something for real,” he explained. “Why are you nervous? We have trained for this for quite some time now, you’re gonna do great.”

Florian went back to people watching as he waited for an answer, tapping his fingers impatiently against the side of his leg.
“I’m not nervous…” Tommy replied while taking another drag of his cigarette.
“Alright,” Florian glanced at his friend, he knew that the man was nervous as hell but he also knew that he’d never admit it, it was something he’d noticed right from the start, Tommy would always lie if it meant looking better in front of others, he didn’t really care too much about it though, he knew the truth without being told and Tommy was an otherwise nice and honest guy so he couldn’t be bothered to confront him about it.

“Should we go inside? I think I saw some more people from the academy going inside earlier,” Florian said, turning slightly and already starting to head towards the entrance before even finishing his last sentence. “Hold on, let me just…” Tommy was quickly to follow, putting the cigarette out and letting it drop to the ground, “We’ve met these people almost daily and will keep doing so now, relax.”
Florian, who was already way ahead of Tommy, pushed the door to the station open and he almost immediately spotted two women who he made his way over to with his arms stretched out, “Mia! Nessa!” He hugged them both before taking a step back, “You two got assigned to work here too?”
The two smiled at him as they greeted him and then Tommy once he joined them.
“Are we supposed to wait here or should we go somewhere else?” Florian looked around a bit, seeing a few of the other rookies and watching some detectives walking past.
“I’m not sure, I haven’t heard anything so I’m assuming we just wait here?” Vanessa, the dark-haired woman that Florian had previously called Nessa, told him as she looked around too.

“You four the rookies?”

When the group heard the question they all turned almost instantly towards the woman who’d asked. Florian noticed her stern gaze before casting a glance at the other three, while they didn't look particularly happy either, they didn't seem as bothered as the first woman seemed to be. Her facial expression made it pretty obvious that she wasn't excited to have a rookie following her around. Hopefully she wasn't the one who he would be partnered with, Florian wanted someone who he could actually talk to and the woman in front of him didn't seem like the friendly and chatty type.

He glanced at his friends quickly, they had all visibly tensed up and seemed to be avoiding eye contact with the detectives, all acting in a nervous manner. Mia was messing with her hair, Vanessa was fumbling with her fingers and Tommy was bouncing his leg up and down a bit. It wasn’t as if this was their first time meeting any detectives so Florian didn’t really get what they were so nervous for but he decided to not waste time trying to figure it out. Instead he turned his gaze back to the stern-looking blonde and smiled, “Yeah, that would be us.” He extended his hand for her to shake as he introduced himself, “I’m Florian Dorn, nice to meet you.”

Florian then looked back at the other three rookies, giving them an encouraging smile. “And this is Tommy Davis, Vanessa Palmer, and Mia Stone.” He quickly introduced the three, watching as the two girls were starting to get ahold of their nerves while Tommy just clenched his jaw tightly. Florian knew exactly what that meant, he’d pissed Tommy off by introducing him instead of letting him do it himself but he hadn’t done it in an attempt to talk over them but because he’d noticed how nervous they were and the fact that non of them seem like they were gonna open their mouths and speak.

“Hi, it’s really nice to meet all of you,” Mia suddenly seemed to have gathered the confidence to speak up and Florian glanced over at her. He’d just have to talk to Tommy later.
“Yeah, it really is and we’re all really excited to start working for real,” Vanessa chimed in, smiling softly at the four detectives. They all seemed to be letting go of their nervousness slightly so Florian looked back at the detectives in front of them, wondering who he would be partnered with.
“Definitely, this is what we’ve been training for after all,” Tommy finally added.

Florian looked at the detectives, listening as they spoke. He couldn’t help but to feel a bit bummed out that he would be partnered with Evelyn. He could already tell that he and Evelyn probably wouldn’t get along too well, she didn’t seem particularly friendly, not that he’d expect to become best friends with whoever he was partnered with but when she wouldn’t even shake his hand, it really seemed as if she’d be difficult to get along with. On the bright side though, she’d worked the longest out of the four so that had to mean that she was the most experienced at least.

As the blonde started talking again, almost lecturing them it sounded like, Florian’s mind started drifting. He did pick up on some of the stuff she was talking about, uncommon cases, dying, mentally scarred, saving people, being worth it, he was only listening with half an ear as he started glancing around, scanning his surroundings and looking at some of the detectives and officers that were rushing around past them. He didn’t even notice when the lecture stopped and the detective picked up her phone. He first noticed it when Mia kicked the side of his foot, bringing him back.
The conversation had started getting boring in Florian’s opinion so he had just let his mind drift but since Mia knew him well by now, she’d noticed and brought him back, making him listen as detective MacQuoid spoke on the phone.

When the woman explained that there had been a murder, his interest grew instantly, this was the reason he’d wanted to become a detective, to actually work and get to solve crimes, not stand around all day while being lectured about not knowing everything and what life would be like after retirement.
“Alright, got it, no touching, just watch, listen and learn,” Vanessa nodded slightly as she said it.
The other three nodded along slightly to show that they’d understood and wouldn’t do anything that they weren’t supposed to.
"That and try not to throw up," Tommy added with a teasing smirk on his lips as he glanced at Vanessa who rolled his eyes at him.

When the dog that was apparently named Hades appeared, Florian’s eyes widened slightly and a smile grew on his lips, the dog was adorable and he wanted to pet it so bad but he knew it would be a bad idea, especially seeing as the strenest of the detectives was his handler, that didn’t change the fact that he found the dog cute though and given the chance, he was most definitely going to pet it.
“Should we get going then? No use in just standing around and wasting time,” Florian smiled softly as he paused slightly before adding, “Not that our victim is going anywhere but still.”
