;Childhood, and the Yugoslavian Wars | |||
Florian was born in [[1978]], in the same small Serbian village as [[Niko Bellic]] and [[Roman Bellic]]. He fought alongside Niko in the Yugoslav Wars, also befriended Roman, and wanted to be a wrestler according to Niko. He worked in an abattoir (a slaughterhouse) in those years, which he found unpleasant. He was a deeply closeted homosexual at the time, and used to speak in a more masculine voice (which is heard in [[Weekend at Florian's]], when he becomes very angry). | Florian was born in [[1978]], in the same small Serbian village as [[Niko Bellic]] and [[Roman Bellic]].

In his last days in the war as a teenager, he joined Niko, [[Darko Brevic]], and [[Fifteen Man Squad|twelve other soldiers]] on a mission into enemy territory. Darko secretly sold information to their enemies for $1,000 towards his drug addiction, and twelve of the boys were killed with the exception of Niko, Darko and Florian. Florian correctly assumed that it was Darko, but unlike Niko he had no drive for revenge and decided to start fresh by moving to the United States. | In his last days in the war as a teenager, he joined Niko, [[Darko Brevic]], and [[Fifteen Man Squad|twelve other soldiers]] on a mission into enemy territory.

;Liberty City | |||
As early as [[1995]], Florian moved to Liberty City, where he changed his name to Bernie Crane (shunning "Florian Cravic" as if it were a split personality) and felt comfortable being an outward homosexual. In [[2003]] and [[2004]], he was arrested for soliciting sex and holding ecstasy. At a foam party at the famous gay club [[Hercules]] (opened in [[1998]] by [[Anthony Prince|"Gay" Tony Prince]]), he met Deputy Mayor [[Bryce Dawkins]], who he started dating afterwards. Bryce used his influence to protect Bernie from the LCPD, suggesting they met during or after 2004. | As early as [[1995]], Florian moved to Liberty City, where he changed his name to Bernie Crane (shunning "Florian Cravic" as if it were a split personality) and felt comfortable being an outward homosexual.
