Cassandra (a.k.a. Cass)
A young half-vampire orphan, with a strong desire to help.
Physical Description
Cass is short, slim and flexible.
Very pale. Retractable fangs. Because she is half-vampire, her body temperature is lower than a normal human's.
Round face with soft features.
Her white, floofy hair and sharp fangs
As a half-vampire she has gained some traits from her parent(s) like heightened sight and hearing; silent steps; darkvision; mind-influence to an extent; slow aging and quick healing. She also needs less energy to function, meaning she can go longer periods without food and still feel fine.
Mental characteristics
When she was about three years old, she was left at the gates of Oakston's fort. The mayor, Vilmos Tark, took her in and saw to it that she was properly raised. As she grew older she was trained in hand-to-hand combat and stealth by a city guard named Caleb, who she saw as an older brother. Cass got to travel over to
Surusus when she was old enough, and there she got to study more and meet new people at The Academy.
Silas and
Lloyd were two boys that she grew very close to. She got to do surveillance missions for both Oakston and Surusus.
In Oakston they taught her a lot of fighting and stealth, and later when she visited Surusus' Academy her education continued on the same spying/stealth track.
Personality Characteristics
She wants to be happy with her friends and family. She doesn't care about material success or a high position in her field of work.
Cass wants to earn her good things in life. She rarely accepts huge gifts without a good reason.
Cass enjoys reading. She keeps many of her favorite books in her room and often visits the library. When reading, you can find her snuggled up in a gigantic blanket or maybe in the bathtub. Sometimes you can find Lloyd sitting with her in the blanket, using his magic to make it extra cozy and warm. When she takes a bath she loves slipping into hot water, while burning incense or using some kind of bathsalt.
Her favorite hobby is pulling pranks. They are always harmless and she would never do something that would give lasting bad effects on the person. With her vampire abilities she is very successful, especially with pranks that require stealth.
Cass likes looking at shiny things. She loves the way they interact with light and how ordinary yet beautiful they can be.
She is cheerful and positive most of the time. She is curious about the world around her and all the people who lives in it.
A responsible soul who cares deeply for those close to her. Protective of her friends, but never to the degree that she becomes overbearing.
Social
In Oakston, Vilmos and Miriam Tark are like Cassandra's real parents, and Caleb Aukes is like her brother. Because she doesn't know her "actual" surname, she sometimes uses Tark if someone asks. She is respected in Oakston, but of course the people in the town knows of her playful side.
She made some friends in Surusus when she studied at the Academy. Silas and Lloyd are the two boys she connected to the most, and she could also see them as her brothers, though her relation to Lloyd is more intimate.
Due to her being left by her real family she takes great care in her found family and friends. She doesn't want anyone to feel the same abandonment as she did. She is incredibly loving and caring for her friends, but she also loves friendly banter and picking on them for fun.
She does not remember her family. When she was three she was left at the gate of Oakston and got taken care of. She doesn't really think about why her parents left her, only sometimes when she's feeling down.
Cassandra is a follower of [god of night, vampires?]. Not an avid believer, but prays to them and leaves gifts in temples.
Very charismatic, extremely optimistic and full of energy. She has learned to be very confident in herself. When being with people he enjoys spending time with she is happy and open, very relaxed and comfortable. She becomes stale, dry and sometimes visibly indifferent in front of people she dislikes. You might even see her become incredibly sarcastic when around those kind of boring and/or bad people.
She remembers names well, and faces better if she also has the names.
She talks quite fast, especially when she's excited or scared. She uses her hands a lot when she talks, especially when she is excited.
Cassandra owns a horse, named Nasrin, that mostly stays in Oakstown. It was a gift from the mayor and his wife at the 7th anniversary of her arriving at Oakstown. Nasrin was a foal when Cassandra got her, and she has raised the horse since then.
She cares strongly for animals. There is a big soft spot in her heart for the small, weak ones.
History
They met at the Academy
Even though she loves shiny things she has little interest in money. She only wants to be able to live comfortably and be able to have a couple of things that are more luxury items for those special occasions.
