Cassie Corey

16-17

Female

None that are mentioned in the series...at least, not yet. I'm thinking maybe Cass or Sie-Sie or something singsong that Meria will come up with to tease her.

Shudra

The amount of makeup and beauty care products she has for her social class are alarming; some even mistake her for a Vaishya in disguise to visit a Shudra lover.

Her body shape is a spoon, and her legs are a bit longer than average girls of NKC, so her arms are also proportionately longer. Her hands are graceful but look slightly large for her wrists; her ankles are the same way.

Fair, with a well-doctored tan that comes partially from time in the fields and partly from cosmetic enhancement (her parents are very persuasive and good at arranging beauty supply delivery for their daughter).

Human

Champagne Brown

Naturally, Cassie's eyebrows are rather thin and faint, but she uses eyebrow pencil (another gift from her parents) to sculpt them to look more stylish. Her eyelashes are average length, but she uses mascara (from you-know-who) to make them look more appealing.

Often worn in a French braid (known now as a Crown), but sometimes if she has a day off (her parents are great at arranging those) or is going out with her boyfriend after work, it will be worn down and tousled around her shoulders like some upper-class aristocrat. Her hair is naturally wavy and she uses special products (her parents are great at nabbing those, too) to make it smooth and shiny. It falls to around her armpits, but if straightened, it would fall an inch or two lower.

Dirty Blonde

5'9"

114 lbs.

ESTJ-T (Executive)

When she's feeling happy, Cassie often flips her hair over her shoulder and sometimes titters (sweetly or scarily depending on your opinion of the girl). She sometimes pops her foot up when laughing and is known to hold a hand to her opposite elbow and gently pound her fist against her thigh.
Cassie is poisonous when she's angry: she glares daggers, she takes advantage even more so than usual of those who admire her, she stomps, and she hisses insults and threats under her breath--or sometimes out loud in a furious shriek.
When she's sad, she tries not to cry and confines it into a sigh. If she does cry, she removes a lace handkerchief from her pocket and dabs at her eyes carefully--she doesn't want to affect her makeup. She sighs a lot in between.
Fear is one of the more flattering emotions on Cassie despite how elegant she is when she's not scared. When she's afraid, she looks like a normal person, shivering slightly. Her facade quivers and you can look beneath to find wide eyes and an uncontrollable trembling. If the fear is bad enough, sometimes she cries and whimpers, but she does not stop to wipe her tears as she does when she's feigning/publicly sad.

Cassie's greatest motivation is her image. It's been that way since primary school: be at the top, or you'll get kicked around. Kick others around so that you can't get around. She always felt like it was what she had to do to survive in her world, and so she managed to persuade her parents from an early age to give her what she wanted, and she awed and attracted classmates just as easily. She surrounds herself with people, possessions, and a layer of makeup to protect her true self from crumbling, and she wants to survive and come out on top: that is her motivation.

Like others, Cassie has many flaws. Her greatest flaw is her naivety. Despite her desire to be intelligent, witty, and sparkly to win her way to the top, she has convinced herself of something that will not count in the future: that charm and glamour are the road to success. She also lacks morals; to achieve her ultimate goals, she's not afraid to blackmail, bribe, lie to, hurt, and cheat other people. All that matters to her is herself, so in all, she is selfish...perhaps that's her worst quality after all.

Cassie always has a bone to pick with someone. She is known to dislike those who see through her, mistreat her, or just don't like her, and will push them aside in her fight for "survival." She's not very interested in politics, either, but she is mad at the government for feeling like she deserves to be of a higher class and wants to know how to be promoted.

Cassie doesn't really have any intellectual or artistic talents, but she is incredibly persuasive and would make a great actress.

Cassie enjoys going on outings with her boyfriend, being fawned over by her teachers, parents, and "entourage," and looking at makeup tutorials on her holocell (her parents are also good at getting tech for their little girl).

Words.

Believes that she deserves to be a Kshatriya or a Vaishya rather than a "lowly Shudra farmer."

Her parents once got cream puffs for her birthday, and they were amazing.

She has a locket that her boyfriend Reg somehow nabbed one day that looks fabulous with her pastel blue dress.

Yuck! Cassie doesn't have time for "dung and fleas."

Pastel blue. It goes great with her hair.

Farmer

November 6th, 34 NA

Went to Shudra public school from ages five to sixteen. After that, her parents decided that it was time for her to begin working to her dismay.

Name Meaning: Cassie means "prophetess," but it has nothing to do with her character. My name is Cassidy, so I decided to make fun of myself by inserting a diminutive of my name (which means "clever" or "curly-haired," and I am the latter and would like to believe that I am the former) into the story. Corey, however, does have a hidden meaning: it means "hill hollow," and this has something to do with Cassie putting herself on a pedestal above other people, but her being no more powerful than they are, hence the "hollow" part.
