Floris

Floris (フロリス) is a character introduced in the later half of Toaru Majutsu no Index. She is a member of New Light.

Appearance
She has white skin and blonde hair who wears a pair of small dragon wings on her back, she apparently is 15 years old.

English Civil War Arc
Initially, when the New Light members were sneaking into London carrying the Skíðblaðnir; Floris was chased and unceremoniously defeated by Kaori Kanzaki. During Carrisa's rebellion against Elizard, Floris was imprisoned by the Knights of England and was to be transported on a train to Folkestone, this was so until Kamijou Touma found her and rescued her.

Even though Touma noticed that her clothing style "was similar to something he saw before" he couldn't make the connection that it was a "themed uniform" similar to what Lessar's was wearing.

During her entrapment Floris noted that the Knights of England were likely planning on taking them out after the job was done from the start and complained strongly to herself that she wasn't willing to risk her life for neither her "fake magic cabal" nor for the success of an assignment.

After escaping from the train headed for Folkestone; Touma -not knowing who she was- thought that it was of no problem to leave her in the custody of the Amakusa Christians, the very same people that captured her in the first place. Floris, by her part, after having her life risked by his clumsy rescue attempt and after having herself handed over to her captors (again) by Touma, could only address her dire situation with rage filled comments such as "you tricked me! you bastard!".

According to Lessar Floris grudge against Kamijou persisted even after the coup d'etat was over, she even spoke of how she was "definitely going to kick that Japanese guy’s ass" before Lessar left for Russia with Touma.

Lance of Gungnir Arc
Lessar mentions that she and the rest of New Light played rock-paper-scissors on who will get the plane ticket to Japan and see Kamijou Touma on their upcoming counterattack against GREMLIN. Lessar states that she won the plane ticket after beating Floris who cried during the final match.

Toaru Kagaku no Railgun SS2: Shopping Mall Demonstration
When Mikoto and Lessar arrive at Nihon Daruma's North Gate store, Floris is sleeping on a couch in the break room, with Lancis having climbed on as well. After Lessar wakes them both with a blow to the head, Floris identifies Mikoto and apologizes for the trouble Lessar had caused her. She then peels a sleepy Lancis off her and leaves the break room with her.

Floris later rescues Lessar as she is about to be crushed by the giant wheel snake unleashed by Caliche's group. As she flies away with Lessar in her arms, the two discuss the basis behind the snake coming after them. With the snake ploughing through any obstacles to get to them and Bayloupe's lightning bombardment not having much effect, the two try to figure out a weakness in its construction. With time short, Lessar suggests to Floris to drop her onto it to find out how to halt the gears without having the Telesma go out of control. Floris argues against it due to the risks involved, but Lessar persuades her to go through with her plan. After doing so, she, Bayloupe and Lancis assist Lessar with the spell to destroy the wheel snake.

As Mikoto and Lessar rush to the launch facility, Floris contacts them from the stock market centre to inform them that a part of Code EIC the size of a refrigerator has been removed. Mikoto asks her to try to restore the phone lines and though not knowledgeable in that area, Floris agrees to do what she can.

After the incident ends, New Light prepare to leave by charter plane. As they wait, Floris relaxes in a massage chair. After removing Lancis from her lap, Floris talks to Bayloupe about the aftermath of the incident and the possible intentions of the parties involved. Just before they receive clearance for take-off, they receive a signal from one of their spiritual items, indicating that it has located the Curtana Original.

Other abilities
Even though she is among the youngest members of New Light, Floris is the only one who displayed the ability to drive a car.

Design evolution
Floris' overall design remains fairly static throughout the series. Along with all the other members of New Light, Haimura was tasked on designing them not to look like magicians, but that of lacrosse players, and used their suits as a common symbol between all four of them.

Trivia

 * Even though Floris was placed under custody, the Knights didn't removed her trademark magical artifact, the dragon wings. It should be noted that when placing someone in captivity removing from her tools that could be used to escape is the natural procedure.
