[b][color=88cdcb]Hair:[/color][/b] Dark chocolate brown colour with lighter brown highlights throughout
[b][color=88cdcb]Skin Tone:[/color][/b] Creamy complexion with a light tan from her time living in San Fran.
[b][color=88cdcb]Tattoos/Scars/Piercings:[/color][/b][list][*]No tattoos (yet)
[*]She has a small scar on her left pinkie finger that makes the shape of the letter J from a cooking accident where her cooking partner wasn’t paying attention and almost ran into her with a filet knife. She also has a circular scar on her scalp on the right backside of her head from where she was beaten up at age eleven during high school.
[*]She has her lobe, upper lobe and auricle pierced.[/list]
[b][color=88cdcb]Personal Style:[/color][/b] Cass has an adorable, baby face look about her. She definitely doesn’t look like she’s 25 and is often mistaken for being much younger. Her deep, chocolate brown hair reaches below her shoulders and can be seen in a multitude of styles but is generally left resting across her shoulders in tumbling waves. Her green eyes are generally made up with natural looking make-up but she cannot live without a bit of winged eyeliner, even if it’s just in a black-brown shade and fine. 

Cass wears an entire multitude of different clothing and accessorises each outfit to suit her current mood and needs. When she’s working at home she’ll be found in her sweats and comfies. Although they will never be dirty or worn out, she likes to keep herself presentable even when in the comfort of her own apartment. When she is out meeting potential clients for her Web Design business, she dresses professionally with various pant suits and blouses. She feels like her clients take her more seriously when she isn’t in a skirt. Sexist bastards. Her bartender garb is generally whatever is fitting of working in a club bar without crossing that line of sleaze and lack of self-respect for oneself. She has her lobe, upper lobe and auricle pierced so her jewellery varies depending on her needs for her outfit and her make-up suits in just the same way.

[b][color=88cdcb]Sexuality:[/color][/b] Bisexual
[b][color=88cdcb]Relationship Status:[/color][/b] Single
[b][color=88cdcb]Personality:[/color][/b] It’s clear where you stand with a woman like Cass. Whatever she says, she means. There is no second guessing her words. When she develops a bond with someone, it takes a whole pile of shit to break that bond. She is loyal, practically to a fault, and will defend anyone she cares about. She’ll also defend those she isn’t close to, but might be more likely to back down if she realises that who she’s defending is in the wrong.

She can be a bit of a perfectionist with her work so she can be quite indecisive at times due to this. It unfortunately seeps into her day to day life where she can’t decide what she wants to wear or eat that day. She’s a really nice and kind person but she’s no pushover. She’s got a tough outer shell that people sometimes struggle to deal with at first and it makes her appear to be a little stand-offish and perhaps not as approachable as her appearance may make you think that she is. She is who she is and doesn’t apologise for it and appreciates people that have the same kind of thought process as she does.

[b][color=88cdcb]What Brings You To India:[/color][/b] Cass and her best bud and partner in crime, Claire McManus, have decided to visit her dear big brother Murphy who has been living in Jaipur, India for the last year. Cass is there for fun, good times, meeting more family members and keeping Claire company in general.
[b][color=88cdcb]History:[/color][/b] Cassandra is an only child to her parents, Maxwell Hope and Alison Hope. She grew up in Dundee, Scotland and had a very pleasant childhood. She had everything she ever wanted, was allowed to pursue any interests that she had as a child, discovering what she liked and disliked along the way. When computers and video games began to come onto the scene, she spent a lot of time looking into how they worked and what they could do. The internet is like her baby and she absolutely loves using it for everything and anything. Her time at primary school was great but her family decided that they needed a change of scenery before she started at high school and moved from the Dundee to Glasgow. 

She was glad that they moved from one city to another but she really didn’t like how [i]tough[/i] Glasgow seemed and it took her some time to find her feet and learn to adapt to the way things worked around here. It really did help her to find her backbone. She was bullied until she found self-confidence (and took some aikido classes) and after she began fighting back, her life at high school substantially improved. When it came to university, Cass decided that she wanted to move back to Dundee and go to Abertay University to study Web and Multimedia there. As she had moved away from her new friends, and had grown distant from her old ones, Cass filled her spare time with mixology and cooking classes when she wasn’t out partying or taking bike trips at the weekends.

She worked part time at a local bar to give herself a sense of purpose beyond studying and hobbies and learned that she loved it. Interacting with people and helping people have a good time wasn’t a bad way to earn some moolah. She had a serious relationship with a guy named Chris that ended badly before her final year of study. This threw her for a loop at first but she went through the motions and still managed to graduate with Honours. Her aim was to get a job with a Web Studio and work her way up the ranks but it didn’t take long until she realised she didn’t like working under people who didn’t know what they were doing and could barely even pronounce the word website properly. She spoke with her parents and they invested in her starting up her own web design studio where she could work freelance for herself. 

She was doing well and continued to work in various bars, pubs and clubs when time allowed. This is where she met Diane and lived through a whirlwind romance that crashed and burned too quickly even though it felt like an eternity to Cass at the time. It was such a traumatic experience that Cass moved back from Dundee, back to Glasgow but the distance still wasn’t great enough. Diane still came around to “surprise” Cass and this was when she knew she had to pack up and leave the country. Fortunately, her parents understood and after some research, Cass discovered that Boston was the way to go and she did the working visa paperwork and was accepted!

That’s where and when she met Claire during a bar fight that Cass was caught up in because some arsehole decided to grab her backside when the fight was going on as she tried to vacate. She landed him square in the jaw with a mean left hook and Claire saw it. They were like, insta-besties man. They grew to be near inseparable thereafter and have been friends ever since. She and Claire travelled to India to have a good time and to visit one of her big brothers, Murphy, who is currently staying there for work. It’s going to be fuuun.

[b][color=88cdcb]Anything Else:[/color][/b] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3473003]What Dick do now?[/url]
[list][*]Cass is an only child and her parents own a whiskey distillery back in Scotland. They’re worth a pretty penny so she doesn’t [i]have[/i] to work but prefers to. No one really knows this about her though as she’s always working.
[*] Cass owns a [url= http://www.motorcyclespecs.co.za/Gallery/Kawasaki%20Ninja%20250R%2006%20%201.jpg]Kawasaki Ninja 520[/url] and her dad taught her how to ride. She can drive cars too, but prefers motorcycles.
[*] Cass has only ever had two “serious” relationships in her life. They both ended badly which caused her to be more closed off from new people.
[*] Cass took night classes in mixology and cooking because she enjoyed the idea of learning them both before moving out on her own in the world. Scottish colleges don’t really do major and minors and their courses purely focus on the subject matter of the degree name.
[*] Her nickname for close friends is a play on her favourite Pokemon, Eevee, and her middle name.
[*] Cass has played Violin since she was six years old and the guitar since she was twelve.
[*] Cass has practiced Aikido since she was eleven when she was beaten up by a pair of older girls in high school.
[*] She loves playing basketball [i]because[/i] of her size. She likes to make people confused.
