Name: Cassiopeia Reyes
Alias(es): "Cassi"
Gender: Female
Age: 16
Status: Pirate/Outlaw
Rank: Crew member/passenger of the Plunder's Heart
Type: Mage
Ethnicity: Part Hispanic, part Caucasian
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 102
Hair: Pale gold, thick though not necessarily curly, worn extremely long down to the backs of her thighs, almost always left loose.
Eyes: Metallic silver
Physical Description: Average height and quickly budding into a very curvy figure, Cassi is almost etherealy beautiful with a naturally creamy-copper colored skintone. Her Mage features include overlarge, delicately upswept “elfin” ears, and her eyes are a somewhat unnatural shade of metallic silver—which seems to swirl in a whirlpool effect when she uses her power. Typically wears her hair down to hide her ears, and wears dark glasses when not on the ship, which is rare. Her clothes are usually of the flowery, feminine variety, mostly in skirts or sun-dresses.
Talents and Skills: It’s been remarked that Cassi could probably make even the most grumpy, angry, anti-social person smile—if even for a moment—as her sweet nature and irrepressibly cheery attitude is very hard to fight against. Cassi was also professionaly trained in several forms of dancing from the time she could walk--to impress her parents' friends--so is very adept at ballet as well as any other form of dancing she tries.
Powers: Something termed “scrying,” Cassi has the ability to see anything in the present or even in the past if she concentrates hard enough on an object or a person that she’s been in contact with before. She also gets random flashes of the future. Using her ability is very disorienting and chaotic however, and she doesn’t like to do it any more than necessary.
Character History: Born on Mars to an affluent family, Cassi has been raised mostly by her older sister Andromeda and was always a lot closer to her as a result. She lived fairly happily for the first fourteen years of her life, until it became impossible to hide her magical abilities. She hated using them, as “seeing” things is very disorienting, chaotic and almost violent in a way, especially the future. Cassiopeia was terrified of having to leave her home, to leave Andromeda, and go where they would make her use her powers over and over again, make her see things she didn’t want to see, that no one should have to see.
In her youth and fear, Cassi didn’t stop to consider the consequences much, and begged her sister Andi to help her get away. In later years, the full extent of the sacrifice that her sister had to make on her behalf has become much clearer however, and she struggles daily with massive amounts of guilt over it. Eager to make it up to Andromeda, and also desperate to feel in some way that she contributes to their lives, Cassi is always on the look-out for ways to help out on the ship. These attempts can sometimes turn into unintended mischief, though so far she hasn’t managed to blunder into anything too terribly bad.
Other than the occasional melancholy moment, Cassiopeia is extremely sweet, loving and affectionate—though somewhat sheltered and naive due to the environment she grew up in and her older sister’s protection. These combined have made her a very well-liked member of the crew, an unofficial mascot that many go out of their way to protect.
Her only other problem is the somewhat sizable crush that she's developed for the Plunder's First Mate, the very handsome Morgan Halcyon. Unfortunately the man is ten years her senior and refuses to see her as anything more than a little kid-sister. Cassiopeia has never spoken of her feelings aloud, but her glaring in little hidden jealousy at all the female attention he frequently garners and then the pink-faced blushes she gets to the pointed tips of her ears whenever he does talk to her probably gives her right away to anyone who's paying attention.
