• The personality section is lacking regarding who, precisely, Cassandra is. It mentions that she is a paradox but does little to explain what that may mean. It mentions her friends and the development of a sense of humor, but with no context to really give a picture of what makes Cassandra tick. It doesn't elaborate on how she may feel about the prejudices her kind face, how she handles her purpose, or what drives her. I'd like to see a personality section that expounds upon these things.
personality, revised!
The grief she feels is not only for those she must excise, though. She has never quite gotten over the loss of her first cabal and the trust that grew between them. Though she chose to sacrifice herself, she feels that their absence as an ache that can never be filled. The betrayal of Isis Cerea cut Cass like a knife as well. While the entire cabal had been tempted by the Unnamed, Cass thought they all would remain united as a team. This was likely a remnant of childhood trust that had to die, but it died hard, and it's a major reason she dislikes letting people close. If those you trusted and thought you were the closest to could turn against you, then anyone can, for the right price. Cass does not even consider herself above this, but she doesn't know what her price would be. Though she might not even realize it herself, she does fear being hurt like that again in the future as well. Cass has a tendency to bottle her emotions rather than go through them and process them, so some of these truths she holds deep down in her core she may not even realize exist. There is a certain amount of introspection called for by what she is, but Cass is human and makes mistakes, for all her mysterious, hard-won knowledge.
Cassandra is someone who will do her best to talk people down from frothing and towering rages, but she herself doesn't get caught up in the debate. Talking may be nice and all, but she doesn't feel it does much in the end. She's someone who believes that action speaks louder than words, and so she will often act. This happens often if she sees some kind of injustice happening. If there's a derogatory statement she may shoot someone a very dirty look and move on, though she's likely to feel guilt for not doing more later. If she saw something more happening she would not be afraid to throw a punch to break things up that way - whatever means necessary to stop what was going on, without causing permanent damage to the assailant. If, however, the prejudice is against her, then she endeavors to let it rush past her without issue. She understands her own place in this world and what her duty does, and she realizes that it will rub the wrong way with some people. If someone were to try to pick a fight with her she would not kill them, but rather try to subdue them and be on her way. She tries to be a very fair individual, as much as a human can be. She does her best to judge people based upon the Chodona and takes their circumstance into account. If someone is Fae she would not judge them as she would a human, for example.
She is someone who does her best to be polite and helpful, but this can grow thin after prolonged periods of time. She was held apart from others and taught how to be a killer when she was young, and she now finds herself apart from others, akin to being behind glass. She isn't quite sure how to integrate with people, or how to relate to them, as their experiences are so far apart. She can come off as being a bit awkward at times, or perhaps a bit more direct than most polite conversation allows. She has worn armor for so long that she struggles to be vulnerable with others and truly transparent in her feelings--she isn't sure how to take the armor off and let people see the real Cass behind the facade she shows. On occasion she will try to be playful in an attempt to relate to people more, but it has a high chance of coming off as awkward or falling a bit flat That being said, Cassandra does like people and she likes the idea of friends, but the subconscious fear of being hurt and the fact that she is slow to trust makes it very hard for her to open up.
