Extremely street smart and clever, she's almost impossible to fool and has a wit sharper than obsidian. She was practically raised by thieves, whores, and murderers and her street savvy ways can attest to that. She's very talented at getting information out of people, whether by intimidation or seduction. Anything that works. She is extremely quick to anger. The slightest wrong-doing will have her yelling and cursing you and every generation of your family. Violence usually ensues after that unless you're able to calm her down. She is very dominant, tolerating no disrespect or disobedience from anyone. When she wants something done, she wants it done as soon as she asks because you damn sure don't want her to make you. Though, don't take this the wrong way. If everything is to her liking, she is very pleasant, charming, charismatic, and polite. Her wit makes her quite the sparkling conversationalist when she wants to be. Despite her potential to be a shrieking devil woman from hell, underneath that is a motherly, protective, compassionate side. She thinks of her courtesans as her daughters and is very protective of women, especially troubled ones. In fact, she's protective over anyone who seems innocent, meek, or childlike, no matter the gender. If someone is in need, rest assured that she'll help in any way she can. It probably isn't surprising to know at this point that she is not shy with her sexuality. She'll flirt with anyone that catches her eye, man or woman. Though, she's actually quite particular about who she sleeps with. Flirting is one thing, sex is another and that isn't given out easily. She is a woman made of steel and hellfire, with a touch of sweetness. She's got an inferno personality with a sugary side that can be brought out by the right people. APPEARANCE Florentina is a lovely lady. She has big blue eyes with a thick fan of inky black eyelashes surrounding them - of course, what makes them striking isn't so much the color as it is the mischievous glimmer, as if she's always up to something. She has naturally black hair that sometimes bleaches into a dark brown if she is out in the sun often. Her hair trails down her shoulders in luscious waves, reaching about to the middle of her back unless she cuts it shorter. Her lips are naturally rosy pink and plump, always curled into a coy smirk. Her body type is very similar to that of the voluptuous women of Michelangelo's paintings and sculptures. She is a thickly built woman with curves for days. Full hips, large breasts, with a noticeably narrower waist to give her an hourglass figure. She is quite tall for a woman, standing at five feet seven inches. Not surprisingly, she wears revealing clothing that accentuates her best parts. She likes dresses that show a lot of cleavage and hug her curves. Red, black, and purple are colors that are most common for her. HISTORY Florentina was born and raised in Rome. Her mother was a Wallachian noblewoman named Sorina from the House of Draculesti(a Templar-supporting royal house) and her father was a Roman assassin named Silvio Ferrara. During Sorina's visit to Italy, she met and quickly fell in love with Silvio. Formerly a Templar supporter like the rest of her family, Silvio was able to convince her to support the cause of the Assassins. Knowing her pro-Assassin ideals would not be welcomed by her family, she decided to live in Rome with her new husband. The couple had three sons, then a daughter that they named Florentina Michelangela. Though, Florentina barely got a chance to know her mother before she was assassinated by Wallachian Templars due to her marriage to an Assassin and support of the Assassin Order. Devastated, Silvio mentally deteriorated, becoming a mere shell of the man he used to be; a killing machine, never showing any interest in his children nor giving them any affection. Many times, he left young Florentina in the care of her older brothers or trusted friends. The Ferrara children were raised in the fighters' guilds and thieves dens and began to recognize killers, thieves, and whores as their family more than they did their own father. The supposed "bottom-feeders of Roma" raised Florentina and her brothers, teaching them the tricks they needed to survive in a cutthroat world. It was no real tragedy to the Ferrara children to receive news that their father had been captured and executed. Florentina was 15 when she found out. Cold as it may seem, no tears were shed by Silvio's children. After all, they had been raised by criminals and only knew their father for a very small portion of their lives. Florentina's brothers became mercenaries and she worked at Rosa In Fiore. Not as a courtesan at the time, but merely kept the place clean and kept track of visitors. She became madame of Rosa In Fiore at the tender age of 17 after the madame before her committed suicide and has been reigning over her House of Lust with an iron fist ever since. |
