Cassandra is a person loved by the people, She was born in the old imperial city of Rome and spent her childhood years there.   Ever since she was born she has been described as a free soul, meaning that she would doe what she found to be best in any given situation, with that said she would never jump into something without first thinking about the possible outcomes, having thought of all the possible outcomes she would then choose the option that to her seemed like the most suiting for the situation. This practice has sometimes led to some outcomes that have landed her in some problems that to most would seem like a minor problem but as the heiress her every move would be monitored by the public.   Likewise, she would be calm and collected in public, but in private or around friends and family, Cassandra has been described as turning into a different person, with a more sassy Cassandra coming to the surface.

Childhood years

Teenage years

Young Adult Years

After graduating from the university, and after having taken a small vacation, Cassandra decided to join the prestigious Imperial Naval Academy on Mars, her decision to join the navy was After met with both support and scepticism, while many thought it to be a good idea for the heiress to join the branch of the military that placed a crucial role in the formation of the Empire that, at the same time some thought that Cassandra joining the military would send a wrong message to people.   Before joining the naval academy, Cassandra had heard stories of a group of cadets that went by the name "Astral Vanguard" at first she thought it to be a bit cliche to have some of the cadets have such a name, though it changed when she heard some of the stories about them, apparently the group consisted of some the older cadets who managed to win exercises designed to be a costly lesson, there were even rumours that once they graduated, they would be given command of some of the capitals ships in the navy, bypassing several steps in their career.   During her time at the academy, Cassandra would forge friendships with her fellow aspiring officers. in her time at the academy, she would polish her skills as a leader and when graduating she had been formed into a poised and capable leader.
