Florence Ambrose is a Bowman's Wolf the main protagonist of the Freefall comic.

Appearance[]

Florence is a brown humanoid wolf with hair ending at shoulder-heights.

Personality[]

Florence is intelligent and hypercompetent, and is unable to relax if she is not solving a problem[1]. She has a strong sense of ethics. She is willing to work for an incompetent and reckless boss like Sam out of a very strong sense of loyalty. As a result, Florence mitigates the actions of her captain[2][3] and often takes up a role of unofficial leader of the Savage Chicken's crew, as the only crewmember both willing and able to do important jobs on the ship until the arrival of Niomi. To do this, Florence often uses intimidation tactics greatly facilitated by her wolf nature to dissuade Sam from doing something unethical and/or ill-advised.[4]. She is very polite [5]. She is also very trusting[6][7], although she has a distaste for middle managers. Despite being raised by humans, she often bases her expectation of social norm on wolf behavior.[8]

Background[]

Florence is a Bowman's Wolf created by Ecosystems Unlimited. She was raised by a human family during her infancy, a time when she looked a lot like a regular wolf, and had an owner named Scott.[9] She now works as an engineer in the Savage Chicken spaceship, due to a "clerical error" engineered by captain Sam Starfall.

Skills[]

Florence is a competent engineer who is well-read in physics. She is able to detect a person's emotional state by scent.[10]
