Cassandra is a 5'7" woman with an athletic build. Notable features about her include her grey and raven black hair, as well as her style of dress. Cass still keeps close to her medieval, vaguely European style.
During the night, and until Cassandra sees the sun, she now takes on her were "bear" form. The appearance of this form is based on the traits of a sun bear.
- Upper and lower canine teeth elongated into sharp fangs. Self explanatory. - Bear-like furred ears. She now had little, circular bear ears with black fur. - Fur on the back, shoulders, and arms. Cass has black fur that grows thickest around her neck and shoulders, but gets shorter as it goes down her back, and from her arms to her hands. A ring of golden fur connects just under her collarbone and goes over her shoulders. - Bear claws. Her fingers and toes sprout thick bear claws at the end of each digit. - Transformation fatigue. Being transformed and turning back to normal leaves Cass tired. - Increased strength. Cassandra becomes stronger as a were than she was as a normal Human - Sharpened senses. Cass now has a keener sense of hearing, sight, and smell. - Hunger, and Hunting instinct. Cassandra now suffers from the need to regularly feed on Human flesh or else she'll slowly lose herself. Though hunting regular animals and eating them works for a while. - Vulnerability to silver. Anything silver will now burn Cass on contact, and potentially kill her if she's shot or stabbed with silver. - Larger size. In were form, Cassandra grows 1.5 times bigger than her human self.
- Emotional Transformation: In moments of high emotion or stress, Cassandra can partially or fully transform into her Night form, even during the day. Transformations due to high emotion can only last continuously for an hour, and will cause heavy strain on the monster the longer it continues. - Sweet Tooth: A psychological change, but Cassandra now has a increased appetite for sweet things like hunny pastries and sweets of all kinds. - Scars: Due to being caught by poachers and dissected in the November 2019 event, Cassandra has several scars where parts of her body have grown back. Namely, there is a jagged scar around the wrist of her right hand, and a large scar on her chest, right over where her heart is. - Cyber eye: As of November 4th, 2022, due to the Fourth God exerting control over the peninsula, Cassandra woke up with her right eye cosmetically changed. The iris is now a soft neon blue, and glows just slightly.
- Owl: The owl, her companion from home. He was a gift from the Fog God during the corpse rain event. Free. - Training Yard: An addition to the grounds of Solsikke castle. Featuring a stock of dummies, targets, and other tools Cass can use to train. 20 coins. - Temporary monster change: Due to a request to turn into a different monster over the winter, Cass was temporarily transformed into a vampire. 60 coins.
Mandatory Changes: - Scales: Cassandra's shoulders, upper arms, and back are all covered by deep black scales that go down her back, straight to her hips. Additionally, the scales highest up on the back of her neck are lustrous- almost glowing -blue scales that mingle with the black scales down her back in horizontal "stripes". - Eyesight: Sharp vision, able to make out small details even from up in the air; excellent night vision as well. - Claws: Her claws are about as thick and sharp as they were in her werebear form. - Wings: Large wings sprout from Cassandra's back. Twice as long as her arm-length, they are capable of flight, and can be folded into a smaller size against her back. While the scales on the wing "arms" are a mixture of black and blue scales, the membrane between is a gradient; going from dark black to a color closer to Cassandra's skin tone at the tips. - Fangs: Slightly sharper fangs than her werebear teeth. - Talons: Her feet are replaced by three thick claw-like talons in the front, and one at the heel. Perfect for grasping things. - Weakness to sunlight: Being touched by sunlight will turn Cassandra into a statue of obsidian, and leave her unable to transform back until the sunlight goes away. In this form, she is almost entirely indestructible. - Fire magic: With a new immunity to fire, comes the ability for Cassandra to conjure fireballs with her hands and heat her skin to burning temperatures, among other things. - Hunger: Just as before, a girl has to eat.
Optional Changes: - Fire breath: Cass can spit literal fire now. - Tail: A long, thin tail that almost curls at the end like a chameleon. - Horns: Thick horns that curl down and then out into a sharp point at the ends. Like this. - Spikes: Several small, blue and black-scaled spikes stick out of Cassandra's shoulders, with longer, sharper ones sticking out of the very end of her tail. - Hoarding instinct: Classic dragon instinct to gather up and hoard shiny things like jewelry.
Mandatory Changes: - Fangs: The upper canines elongated into fangs. - Eyes: Cassandra's eyes have taken on a bright red color. - Nails: Fingernails that grow faster and in a more claw-like shape. - Weakness to Sunlight: Vampires usually prefer to go out at night time or keep themselves well-covered, because their skin burns quickly in sunlight and direct exposure can be painful. - Weakness to Silver: Silver will burn Cass's skin on contact and can cause severe injury or even death if she's shot or stabbed with something made of silver. - Heightened senses: Vampires will find that their senses are attuned to the scent of blood, and when very hungry they may start hearing the pulses of those nearby. - Thirst for blood: Vampires feed only on blood and will actively crave it. If Cass doesn't feed for an extended amount of time, she will begin to go mad and lose her self-control until she can feed again.
Optional Changes: - Normal food: Cass is still able to eat and drink regular food, though only blood will truly satisfy her. - Bat form: The ability to take the form of a bat. Cassandra will look like a regular bat, and will be able to fly, but is more vulnerable in this form. - Reflection: Cassandra lacks a reflection now. Fun.
Name: Cassandra Ofstegard Age: 25 Occupation: Highschool Gym Teacher/Cheerleading coach
Cassandra Ofstegard is a regular Bavanite, abandoned by her birth mother at a young age before being raised alone by her adoptive dad, a guard at the interdimensional museum... who was then killed in a monster-related incident when she was twenty. And ever since then Cassandra has carried a grudge for monsterkind ever since. A few years later now, her dislike of monsters hasn't waned at all, leading the young woman to join a neighborhood watch to keep an eye on monster activity in her neighborhood, and rescue anyone that looks like they may become a snack.
Besides that, she attended Ryslig's college for the sake of pursuing a career as a teacher. There, she met Elsa, a meek student who typically studied from home, Cass offering to walk her home that day. Then, she offered to walk her to the college. From there, they worked up into a quiet relationship that eventually turned into a full marriage. Cassandra lives with Elsa now, alongside her sister-in-law, Anna.
Now, she works as a stern, but fair coach at Bavan Midtown Highschool, teaching gym and coaching the school's cheerleading team. Still with a chip on her shoulder and some PTSD from her parent's death, but making the best of a life that feels, honestly, a little unfair.
