A comely young woman with yellow-amber eyes who stands at 5'5", she is more often seen smiling than not, and those who know her are a bit skeptical of that very smile, though newcomers see her as a gentle, motherly figure. She has long brown hair that falls in twisting rivers down her back to the middle of it. Sometimes she even puts flowers in it.
Partial to wearing long gowns, some of which appear beautifully tailored, for which she has to thank her sister. Also has one or two summer hats she wears, signifying her as the upper middle class.

Personality:
You could call her an ambivert. Cassie enjoys the company of people, and though in her childhood she was ever curious and bubbly, though not as much as Sophia, that's dulled down now to make her more serious and graceful. Though she still enjoys the thrill of a challenge and adventure, and the adrenaline of doing something where she might be caught fuels her occasional reckless behaviour, though she's not particularly violent. Far from. Cassandra is a woman you'd see smiling more often than not, but behind that graceful exterior lies an envious and vindictive beast of a woman. Though her love was once different, she now lusts for riches, particularly precious stones, and also an unreasonable revenge. Though you wouldn't hear her admit to any of that, since playing innocent is something Cassandra has come to learn works well in her favour.
Biography: Born to a member of the royal Guard and his wife, a woman of medicine, Cassandra had a comfortable life growing up with her elder sister Sophia. Nothing particularly eventful, she went to school and grew up managing her studies and with her sister, opening up a flower shop though her sister went on to be a seamstress.
Though when she was seventeen, and in the years of peace the kingdom enjoyed, as she was supplying flowers to the castle for one of the king's many events with nobles, she met one particular Duke. His name was Adrian, and he had come from a close land. His title of Duke was inherited as both his parents passed away, and his elder brothers had gone to conquer their own lands, leaving him, the youngest, in the lap of royalty. Adrian and Cassandra fell in love at first sight? It wasn't quite like that, but started off in the comic fashion of her being too fixated on this handsome man's face and his ocean green eyes, and bumping into someone of the royal household. He spoke up on her behalf to be pardoned.
For a year and a half they courted, with Adrian making excuses to come by and by to the local Kingdom, and through all the political naysayers, he wanted to take Cassandra as his wife. The two were unbelievably happy, though the political situation of his local lands would go into ruin should he not have made an alliance with another warring land. The young duke was later assassinated, leaving Cassandra at 19 with his child.
Being unable to live and raise something that would remind her of her lost lover everyday, with the help of her mother, they managed to kill the child somehow before it reached an irreversible stage, though it left Cassandra wounded both emotionally and mentally.
She mourns her lost lover to date, and she doesn't know who or why the assassination was ordered, being kept mostly in the dark.
She's come to the kingdom seeking riches and answers of her fiancé's untimely demise. And if she ends up dying, she's more than willing to comply, much against the wishes of her sobbing mother and sister and her disapproving father.
Misc: Adrian shared her love for animals, and taught her how to train a bird of prey, before some time in the course of their relationship assigning her the position of owner to one of his two beloved birds, a white barn owl named Locket. Since the bird isn't too much of a hassle to deal with, she's happy to bring it along for sake of protection and as an affectionate companion.
Cassandra also loves sweet things, particularly fresh fruits, especially berries, and anything made of chocolate.
Her favourite flowers are lilies.
She and Sophia had a dog at home who has become quite old now called Hunter, and she personally had two pet dormice.
She loves the sound of harps and violins.

Traits:
Skills:
- Cassandra, being a town citizen, makes her living as both the runner of a flower shop and her mother's assistant, with the elder woman being one of the better known herbalists in the city. The two careers have made it easy for her knowledge of plants and herbs, for purposes aesthetic, medicinal or otherwise to blossom.
- Was privileged enough to be taught how to ride from a young enough age, with her father being a part of the royal guard. He's now retired and with good reason as the wars decreased and so did threat. The family horse Rook, a bay stallion that's about seven years old, was purchased when Cassandra was 15.
- Since she grew up with a sister, Sophia, the housework was split between the two. Therefore, Cassandra can clean and cook adequately enough for if she were to live on her own.
Weaknesses:
- Cassandra was never very good with complex physics or mathematics.
- She has become desensitised to when someone is dying before her eyes due to having seen it so much, so her empathy in those moments to grieving family is less than stellar.
- She's defenseless with or without a weapon, personally believing more in healing than hurting. Therefore her physical endurance and strength also isn't very high.
