META COMMENTARY
The original drawing I did of him. He was originally meant to be a fancharacter for a surreal Youtube series. Lemme know if you guess it. |
By Florim's nature as a really not-serious character, he doesn't really have any established lore or anything. I have vague beats (I strongly feel as if he lives in the sewer system), but otherwise messing around with Florim is just throwing bits at the wall and seeing what sticks. |
That is, until May 2018-ish, where I (then a high school junior, I believe) uploaded the original doodle to toyhou.se in the middle of the school day, and from then I just...started doodling him all over. |
Florim's one of my mainstays, I think, and I don't see that ever changing in the future. He's not complicated, but he doesn't have to be. He is simply my web star.
(Again, no idea how our DM let me play him in a Call of Cthulhu game, but wow I am forever thankful. It was so funny.)
By the way, the nickname "web star" itself comes from my friend Sam, and from the title of a little pixel art thing he did of Florim a long time ago. You can see it as the page icon up above!
Sam is also responsible for Florim's page dividers, as well as several other notable Florim artifacts. :)
