Relationships:
Overview: Cassie isn’t the most social person in the world. With strangers she’s slightly reserved and may or may not stutter when talking to them. She usually doesn’t seek out people to talk to unless she has to. Cassie much prefers to stay by herself unless she knows you – or you talk about comics. While she isn’t the most charismatic person in the world around her friends, she will gladly talk to them at length and protect them from anything.
A surefire way to break her out of her shell is to stand her in front of a door or put a sword in her hand. The second she has a rapier or an epee in her hand she instantly loosens up. She quips, she becomes more energized in the way she walks and talks. She plays around a bit more as well. When she’s bouncing she’ll usually let the other guy get in a hit in a fight before blocking it and taking him down.
Cassie is self-conscious. She’s not supermodel pretty, though she makes due. She is tiny enough that almost no one takes her seriously in fencing competitions or as a bouncer unless they’ve seen her work before. She’s someone fine with either of those things, but she isn’t when it comes to her dyslexia. She a lot of times goes out of her way to avoid reading in front of people, and was made fun of in school over it.
Other Equipment:
- Her Arrowette costume. She wears a wig to better protect her identity.
- A fencing epee she uses in competitions
- A bladed bow and some trick arrows. Aside from classic arrows she carries arrows with built-in tracers, net arrows, and smoke bomb arrows. The bow itself is kinda cheap and not the best constructed weapon.
- A cellphone with a text to speech program and the receiver for her tracers
- Her well-worn metal travel mug
History
Cassie’s childhood wasn’t a great one. Her mother Sandra died of MacGregors shortly after she was born, so she never got to know her. Cassie still wears her bracelet to this day. Cassie didn’t talk to people a lot and she was short so she get ribbed a lot. When she was about ten her grades started slipping, from her normal As and Bs to a gentleman’s C at best. Her father hounded her about it, and all she could say that “the words were swimming”. Eventually she was diagnosed as dyslexic, which her father refused to believe.
Of course, her father had his own problems, what with being hired killer extraordinaire Lawrence “Crusher” Cain AKA The Sportsmaster. One day when she was thirteen he dropped her off at his sister Paula’s house, and Cassie never saw her father again. Aunt Paula told her about everything, leaving Cassie to assume that her father was dead.
Throughout her life, there was one pastime she picked up from her father that allowed her to let off steam – fencing. In fact she basically graduated high school and got into college solely because of her skill with a sword.
OOC Stuff
Anything Else: She’s a combination of Cassandra Cain and Artemis Crock, yet she’s whiter than that would normally entail. Oh and there’s a sword involved.
