[b][color=6ecff6]Strengths:[/color][/b] Max of 3[list][*]Steady hands; Cassie's long career as an EOD operative has given her remarkably steady hands, which assists not only her usual work but also her marksmanship and any first aid she may need to administer[*]Optimistic Outlook; Cassie keeps her morale high, maintaining high spirits even in grim circumstances.[*]Spartan Training; the grueling process undertaken by the Spartan-III's has made Cassie into a formidable force, capable of taking on missions by herself that would take teams of Marines or a squad of ODSTs.[/list]
[b][color=6ecff6]Weaknesses:[/color][/b] Minimal of 3[list][*]Inexperience; while a veteran Spartan and no stranger to combat, Cassie has served more of a support role in her service and relies on superior firepower over tactical know-how to complete a firefight.[*]PTSD; despite psychiatric care, Cassie maintains Post-traumatic stress disorder connected to the death of her actual parents, and her subsequent adoptive family, this can be triggered by certain actions taken by Kig-Yar, and occasionally just by seeing one.

[b][color=6ecff6]Personality:[/color][/b] Off the battlefield, Cassie tends to be a fairly laid back individual, striking up a conversation easily and often. An extrovert with a tendency to make quips and tease, she's occasionally hard to be around for long periods of time but will shut it down if asked. She loves people and considers her fellow soldiers to be akin to her family, in part due to her nature, and in part due to the nature of her training as a Spartan-III. She has a noted love of old media and classically inspired pieces of media.

On the Battlefield, she is no less talkative, but maintains a pride in her work that lends a sort of professional coolness to her words that clashes with the almost devil may care way in which she carries herself. She loves what she does, plain and simple, and it shows. She completes objectives with a genuine zeal, one not altogether founded on her animosity toward the Covenant.

[*] [b][color=6ecff6]Item: M932 Designated Marksman's Rifle, "Felicia"[/color][/b]This Weapon is hand tweaked by Cassie, using a larger 30 round box magazine with proximity-fused high explosive warheads, the same rounds used in some variants of the M793 SAW.

[*] [b][color=6ecff6]Item: M41 SPNKr Rocket Launcher[/color][/b] Used on occasions where Cassie needs a lot of firepower to take targets at range, This venerable weapon is technically obsolete with the existence of the M57 Pilum, but Cassie prefers this system for its familiarity.
[*] [b][color=6ecff6]Item: M6H2 Magnum PDWS[/color][/b] This stripped down sidearm serves as a last resort weapon more than anything for Cassie, and she's removed most of the advanced features of the weapon, leaving it a very basic, but powerful and easily used backup.

[h3][b][i][color=6ecff6][center]History[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h3]
[b][color=6ecff6]History:[/color][/b] Born on Harvest in 2520, Cassie was conscripted into the Alpha group of the Spartan III program following the attack on harvest and later seeing her adoptive family killed by Kig-Yar pirates, but was secreted away along with several other members before Alpha Company's 300 were KIA during Operation: PROMETHEUS. A specialist in explosives of all kinds, She saw comparatively little combat during her years, being stationed mainly on the inner colonies quelling the Insurrection, and generally taking care of any explosives measures ONI needed. When Earth was attacked in 2552, she was recalled and helped defend Orbital Defense Station Madrid from Covenant attackers and was critical in stopping the antimatter bomb they'd managed to get aboard. She later was involved in several skirmishes when Truth's forces invaded, mainly supporting other resistance teams in setting up sabotage points to slow the advance of the Covenant to key defensive structures. Later reassigned to Infinity and swept into the general Spartan-IV program, she took the last name of Rawlins to keep her cover and was again instrumental in setting traps for invaders during the Battle of Infinity. During this time, she upgraded to Gen2 EOD armor and was later assigned to the Fortitude South for her explosives expertise. As a Spartan-III, much of her military history is inked over by ONI or credited to the Spartan-II program.
