PERSONALITY: Cassidy is a tempest in human form—intense, wary, and more than ready to snap if cornered. She may pretend to quiver like a frightened dog, but don’t be fooled; she bites hard. Her upbringing taught her that trust is dangerous and that she is the captain of her own ship—come hell, high water, or the occasional Hogwarts brawl. And though she wields the fierce independence of someone who’s had to grow up fast, her temper tantrums rival those of a toddler who just had their favourite toy taken away, making her someone who is best left alone.
Her pride and defiance fuel her confrontational nature. Ruthless, and disrespectful, she dives into conflicts headfirst. She'll poke and prod, winding people up just to see if they’ll throw the first punch, giving her a reason to hit back and then play the “what did I ever do to you?” card with zero shame. She has learned to be selfish, entitled, and a touch compulsive, her petty thefts a means of reclaiming something in a life that has often been outside her control. Her deceptions and mistrust are her armour, behaviours carved into her by a chaotic upbringing and a means to push people away.
But for all her tough talk and dramatic entrances, there’s a scrappy charm to Cassidy. She lives by the motto “what doesn’t kill you makes you smarter.” Bold, adventurous, and impossible to discourage, she tackles everything headfirst, sometimes without thinking but always with heart. She might be prickly and rough around the edges, but if you ever need someone to laugh in the face of trouble (or throw the first punch for you), Cassidy's your girl—just don’t ask her to return anything she “borrowed” along the way.
ASPIRATION: When Cassidy was younger, she dreamed of becoming a Magizoologist—ironic now, given her disdain for almost everything in the world. Yet, tucked away in the recesses of her mind, that dream stubbornly lingers, even if her grades are in the gutter. If she ever pursued it, though, it wouldn’t be out of a desire to help; no, it would be a selfish dream. She'd rather work with animals than people. She also yearns for the family unit that’s always eluded her, craving stability and human connection in a world that she claims she wants or needs nothing from.
