Caged Demon Fiorentina

Lore[]

Wealthier humans had been known to capture and display demons such as the beautiful Fiorentina. Born in captivity, the only world she knew was what she saw through bars or shackled to chains. The haughty owners looked down upon her, convinced that her pure-blooded lineage assured her submissiveness. All she could do was tremble as she continued to endure the disgraceful treatment.

Name Origin[]

Fiorentina is a feminine name of Latin origin; the meaning is "blossoming, flourishing, flowering, in bloom". It is derived from the word florens. A variant of Florence (Latin) both masculine and feminine name; Florens is feminine in Polish but masculine in German languages.

A demon, daemon or fiend, is a supernatural, often malevolent being prevalent in religion, occultism, literature, fiction, mythology and folklore. In demonology, a demon is considered an unclean spirit, a fallen angel, or a spirit of unknown type which may cause demonic possession, calling for an exorcism. In Western occultism and Renaissance magic, a demon is a spiritual entity that may be conjured and controlled.

The original Greek word daimon does not carry the negative connotation, it denotes a spirit or divine power, much like the Latin genius or numen. Daimōn most likely came from the Greek verb daiesthai (to divide, distribute).
