Picture:

Blonde
Eye Colour:
Blue
Build:
Slim, Athletic, fairly petite and compact
Skin Tone:
White, tans well
Height:
5 foot 4 inches
Dress Style:
Cassiopeia has an extremely variable wardrobe, though she prefers expensive and well made clothing. She will happily wear muggle clothing if it is a label brand, expensive or custom-made.
She tends to wear white and black alot, with dashes of green and purple as accents. She will not wear yellow, but is happy in gold. The cut of her clothing is important; even her uniform has been tailored to have a flattering fit.
She always looks as if she's put effort in to her appearance, she likes shoes and boots. She wears jewellery fairly often, but is careful not to overdo it.
Specifics:
The classic blue-eyed blonde, Cassiopeia has a sweet smile and an aura of innocence. She's a petite 5'4. Cassiopeia looks to be the very definition of the phrase 'butter wouldn't melt' and her warm and open face invites people to confide in her. There is a spark of intelligence in her eyes that should not be ignored. She is very active physically, enjoying quidditch, quodpot and dueling. She runs every morning before breakfast and it shows in her physique. She is pretty, but not unusually so. She has no distinct markings or scars- rather her skin has a translucent quality that makes her look fairly delicate. She has a clear, even and creamy complexion.
In Front Of Friends
Sexual Orientation:
Straight
Self Image:
Cassiopeia is extremely confident and has never ever doubted herself. It has not yet occurred to her to compare herself to anyone else or to think about how things might be if she did look in any way different. Ocassionally she gets annoyed at her height and wishes she was taller and maybe a tad stronger; but this is more from a practical standpoint than anything else. She always has to be the best at what she does and will obsess fanatically over any failures- particularly as she never expects to fail.
To the Outward Eye:
She appears innocent and angelic and does much to further this impression. Even when angry her voice is well modulated and precise. She does not swear. She will not tolerate anyone she doesn't know calling her by a nickname. Dependant on the situation she may come across as slightly vapid but this couldn't be further from the truth- she is very intelligent. She looks like prey, but the hunter may become the hunted if she is so inclined.
Social Status:[/b][/color]
Cassiopeia is hard to pigeonhole. She only has a few close friends but likes to surround herself with 'flavours of the week' her tastes change abruptly and often without warning. It takes a particular kind of person to keep up with her and to keep the upper hand. She is polite and generally friendly upon first meeting, while she assesses what use the person might provide to her. Generally she is well-liked, but respect is what she aims for and it is the highest acolade she can give if she says she respects you.
Positive Traits:
Negative Traits:
Skills:
She's multilingual, with working French and Italian. She's a fast flyer and quick on her feet, making her fairly good at dueling. Research is easy for her.
Likes:
She liikes shoes- expensive and well made, since she believes accesories make the clothes.
Cassiopeia likes to flirt, she sees it as the only game without a loser.
She loves flying since it is the only time she can get away with reckless behaviour.
Cassiopeia likes getting good grades, to the point where it makes her exceedingly happy.
she likes to experience life with all five senses and any actvity providing such an opportunity is favourable to her.[/color]
Dislikes:
She doesn't like rude or stupid people.
Cassiopeia dislikes being called by her nicknames by anyone she doesn't know.
She dislikes orange food; Pumpkin makes her ill and she doesn't like the taste of oranges.
Cassiopeia doesn't like breaking rules; though bending them is fine if you don't get caught.
She particularly dislikes gobstones- Ewww.... spit! Come on
Patronus:
Her patronus is a scorpion.
They are nocturnal and do not hunt their prey, but rather wait until a suitable prospect crosses their path. They will then ambush their victim by giving them a lethal injection of poison which either kills or adequately stuns the unsuspecting creature.
The Scorpion is able to control how much venom will be released from their stinger when attacking their prey. They will, if very threatened, sting their victim several times. Scorpions can survive a year without food or water, making them one of the most enduring creatures on the planet.
Boggart:
Her boggart is a Kappa. Her lake at home contains Kappa (among other magical creatures) and she watched her brother get attacked by one when they were young.

Report:
Cassiopeia is a very good student, she works very hard and listens to instructions carefully. She is respectful of authority figures although ocassionally seems to think she knows better than the teacher.
Personal Statement:
She loves DaDA, Potions, Divination, Herbology and Arithmancy, the rest she doesn't mind. There aren't any subjects that she dislikes completely. She believes that in everything you learn, there is something you can use- There is no such thing as useless information.
History:
Cassiopeia uses the impression she gives to others very much to her advantage. She will play you for a fool if you act like one. She is very smart and a homework fiend since her daddy was always strict about working hard. Her first priority is always herself and she'd happily stomp all over a person to get to the top. She dedicates herself to causes and always sees things through.
Cassiopeia is very good at putting on an act and while she is self-confident, it rarely crosses over into out-and-out vanity unless that is part of whatever act she is putting on at the time. She is fiesty when her back is to the wall; though that is a rare thing since she is careful never to let herself get into bad situations. Despite indicators to the opposite, Cassiopeia does not judge people based on their looks; rather on what she perceives a person has to offer and promptly use it for her own gain.
She loves to duel and has a formidible repetoire of spells at her fingertips from studying with her father; a powerful dark wizard and consumate businessman. His shrewdness and cunning has passed to Cassiopeia who manages to hide her sinister side quite easily under her outward angelic appearance.
Cassiopeia was homeschooled up until the end of her third year- her father believing that it was imperative that she learn proper pureblood values and focus her study on the Dark arts, Potion brewing and Herbology in particular. These are the areas she excels in along with Arithmancy and Ancient Runes.
Her family has an estate in Dorset but until recently lived in Italy where they kept a discrete eye on politics back in Britain. Her Father is half English and half Scottish, while her mother is 1/2 Italian and 1/2 French.
The Copenspire Estate in Dorset is a secluded 10 hectare, heavily-warded country property. The landscape is dominated by hundreds of magnificent trees. There are gigantic cypresses and pines that were first planted as young saplings over 100 years ago.
A tranquil and beautiful lake is Cassiopeia's favourite piece of home. Like her it can be misleading- there is much hidden beneath the surface. It's depths are home to Kappas, Kelpies and Merpeople.
There are several buildings on the property, very often there are guests from all over the world. One of the buildings is used for her father's business, another is like a mini-hospital where anyone can stay to discretely recover or hide-out.... for a price.
In the main house, Cassiopeia and her brother Cristian share a wing. Her room is all white marble, lace and silk, deep greens and purples providing a splash of colour here and there. There is a balcony off her bedroom overlooking the lake.

{ooc: I don't post this big ALL the time

Cassiopeia opened her eyes and looked about her room, instantly awake. She turned her head, reveling in the way her head was cushioned in the softness of her pillow. She could see her clothes scattered on the floor where she had apparently discarded them the previous night. On the floor. She sat up suddenly and stared at her clothing. She was never so untidy usually so why had she...? She hadn't.
Cassi sat up in bed and swung her feet daintily over the side, her toes curling slightly in the soft fur rug covering the floorboards. Absently she smoothed her nightgown against her skin and narrowed her eyes at the clothes strewn about. Her eyes trailed to the wardrobe, where an empty hanger was still hooked over the door, jammed at an awkward angle so that it was clear why her clothes had not remained where she had hung them.
She stood up and examined the door to her wardrobe. It hadn't been closed, so why was it closed now? Reaching behind her and withdrawing her wand from under her pillow, she accio'd her slippers and put them on before smoothing her nightgown against her skin once more and taking a few steps toward the wardrobe. She reached up and flicked at the stuck hanger, and it released from her hooked finger with a loudly vibrating twang.
She regarded it for a moment before turning slowly and retrieving her strewn clothes, folding them up and placing them over the back of a nearby chair. Once this was done she turned back to the wardrobe and attempted to open it. Hmm, it was stuck. The hanger jamming the door closed. She made a messy bun and secured it tightly with her wand so that her hands were free before giving the hanger a calculating look and jumping up to take a grip on the offending object.
Her feet momentarily suspended off the ground, it took only moments before the hook of the hanger came loose under her weight and Cassiopeia landed catlike on her feet. She withdrew her wand and shook her hair loose, casting Evanesco on the hanger before resolutely reaching forward and opening the door to her wardrobe.
She grinned; her little sister and brother were in there, curled up together with pillow and blankets and fast asleep despite the noise she had made to get the cupboard open. Hiding from monsters again. She and Cristian had done the exact same thing when she was tiny, and now it seemed that six year old Marcheline had run to Cristian and his first thought had been to show her the effectiveness of hiding in Cassiopeia's wardrobe. Well it worked didn't it? The monsters hadn't got them, but Cassi was not going to let them get away with squishing her clothes and shoes without extracting some sort of price.
But for now, she smiled and shut the door quietly, creeping back to her bed and kicking her slippers off as she crawled back in. For now, they could stay exactly where they were.

Generally she is well-liked, but respect is what she aims for and it is the highest acolade she can give if she says she respects you.
Positive Traits:
- Ambitious- For Cassiopeia, 2nd place is just another way of saying 1st place loser. She works hard and studies hard. Once she sets a goal nothing will get in her way to achieve it.
- Observant- She notices the little things and uses these details to form an idea of the bigger picture. She is good with body language, expressions and gestures and knows when a situation is going well and when it isn't.
- Intelligent- She is ridiculously smart and quick-witted and a general all-round high achiever.
- Hard- working- while she is intelligent, her knowledge comes from much practice and hard work. She has been brought up to always have goals and strive to achieve them.
- Charismatic- She's a fairly electric personality, and a changeable one- able to turn up the charm where required.
Negative Traits:
- Self-Centred - Her world begins and ends with herself; it is rare that anyone is able to break into that or coonvince her that there is anything wrong with her or her actions.
- Underhanded - If she has to use sneaky tactics to get what she wants, she won't hesitate.
- Calculating- Always weighing up what she can get out of a situation to benefit herself.
- Secretive- She doesn't like to reveal her hand and often will divert the subject if a conversation turns to unpleasant topics.
- Deceitful- She'll rarely out and out lie, but happily hide the truth in other ways. Cassiopeia believes information is power and won't give up all her information without getting something back.
Skills:
She's multilingual, with working French and Italian. She's a fast flyer and quick on her feet, making her fairly good at dueling. Research is easy for her.
