Others, a ruthless fighter who shows no remorse. Neither viewpoint is wrong at all. As an adopted Kephallonian, Kassandra can initially be seen as a tough and dependable mercenary who can hold her own in a fight. While this is very true, her brush with both Spartan and Athenian cultures have also made her relatively rounded out. In addition, she is fiercely loyal and cares deeply about her friends and family alike. She can often develop a close bond between herself and those who gain her trust. Anyone who threatens or harms her companions can and often will be subject to her bloodthirsty rage, which often isn’t quenched until her perceived threat is subdued. However, this can also be a weakness. Because of her strong ties, she may easily be provoked into reckless fury if her friends are even threatened; she has even confronted fellow allies over poor treatment over her friends before. Outside of her intelligence, bonds, and rage, Kassandra often prides herself on a sort of moral code. If she claims she will do something, she almost certainly will do it. However, she will almost always attempt to refuse anything that can put potentially innocent people in harm’s way. If they’re a part of a contract or it’s impossible to avoid, she will attempt to mitigate the casualties by getting them out of the way nonlethally or via persuasion. Most “morally right” deeds asked of her by others- such as clearing out bandits or rescuing civilians- are done for free. If the job is amoral, she’ll do it at a fee, and will almost always steer clear of immoral contracts. Equipment: [hider=Spear of Leonidas] [url=https://assassinscreed.fandom.com/wiki/Spear_of_Leonidas]Spear of Leonidas[/url] [i]The mighty weapon has been fully restored. It shines with barely contained power and godly potential.[/i] [color=9e1316]“I can't really describe it... It's like I know what my opponent's next move will be, just before it happens.”[/color] The Spear of Leonidas is Kassandra’s signature weapon. A family heirloom of sorts, the Spear of Leonidas is also the primary vassal for Kassandra's "powers". Originally in extremely poor shape and just the tip of King Leonidas I’s spear, the “Spear” has been reforged repeatedly to the point where the spearhead is now more than capable of acting as a dagger. Because of Kassandra’s demigoddess nature, she can harness the full power of the Spear of Leonidas and channel her Adrenaline into utilizing various different abilities. As a “normal” weapon, Kassandra will use it in conjunction with a one-handed Sword or Dagger as an off-hand weapon. If wielding a two-handed heavy weapon, Kassandra will leave the Spear on her back, but will still be able to utilize its abilities. According to Kassandra, the Spear also allows her to predict enemy attacks and react accordingly to it. However, since Kassandra possesses this trait even without her Spear, it is possible the Spear’s “sixth sense” has rubbed off on its wielder. [/hider] [hider=Hero’s Sword] [url=https://assassinscreed.fandom.com/wiki/Hero's_Sword]Hero's Sword[/url] [i]Every good odyssey begins with a hero and a sword.[/i] The Hero’s Sword is a lightweight blade given to Kassandra by Leda, the daughter of Barnabas- who was in turn the captain of Kassandra’s ship. Like any other sword, it offers a fine balance between agility and stopping power; while a dagger may lack range and a two-handed weapon sacrifices mobility, Kassandra’s sword has neither flaw even if it does not specialize in anything. To complement her Sword, Kassandra will wield her Spear of Leonidas in her off hand. Kassandra’s Overpower Attack with her Hero’s Sword prompts her to land a flurry of sword blows to her victim before knocking them away with a finishing blow. [/hider] [hider=Polyphemos Cyclops Bludgeon] [url=https://assassinscreed.fandom.com/wiki/Polyphemos_Cyclops_Bludgeon]Polyphemos Cyclops Bludgeon[/url] [i]They say only the immortal can survive a blow from this barbaric bludgeon.[/i] A weapon kept alongside a terrifying monster, Kassandra seized the Polyphemos Cyclops Bludgeon after defeating her foe. This heavy bladed weapon requires two hands to hold, but its sharp blade can cut through any unarmored victim with ease. With its additional weight, it can sometimes break through a target’s defense. The Bludgeon is much less wieldy than Kassandra’s sword, and thus makes her attacks a lot slower. However, its long reach can make it dangerous to come remotely close to the Eagle Bearer- whether friend or foe. Kassandra’s Overpower Attack with the Bludgeon has her slam the blade vertically upon her victim, before pulling upwards and knocking them away. This can be chain attacked upon multiple victims. [/hider] [hider=Paris’ Bow] [url=https://assassinscreed.fandom.com/wiki/Paris%27_Bow]Paris’ Bow[/url] [i]Paris of Troy is the supposed crafter of this bow. Despite its beauty, this weapon is deadly and dependable.[/i] Paris’ Bow is fabled to be- like its name suggests- made by the prince and hero of Troy. However, it had ended up in an ill-intentioned Athenian's possession. Only after Kassandra found out of his treachery and executed him did she earn the bow for herself. Kassandra’s ranged weapon of choice, the hand-drawn bow- combined with her Spear’s powers- gives her a few ways to pelt her foes from afar or even up close if need be. The Eagle Bearer’s Overpower Attack with this bow will prompt her to draw and fire an arrow charged with energy, creating a massive explosion on impact that can stun or knock foes down. [/hider] Attributes: A (nearly) full set of abilities can be found on the [url=https://assassinscreed.fandom.com/wiki/Skill_Tree_(Assassin%27s_Creed:_Odyssey)]Wiki Page[/url]. Most common Abilities will be found here, though. [hider=Eagle Vision/Ikaros] [url=https://assassinscreed.fandom.com/wiki/Eagle_Vision]"Eagle Vision"[/url] and [url=https://assassinscreed.fandom.com/wiki/Ikaros]Ikaros[/url] [color=9e1316]“Ugh. Your breath smells like dead mouse…”[/color] Kassandra isn’t called the “Eagle Bearer” for no reason! She possesses a Golden Eagle companion named Ikaros, who has accompanied her ever since she fled from Sparta as a little girl. Both share a symbiotic relationship between each other, and thus are almost always together. Ikaros isn’t just a pet for Kassandra, neither; the bonds they share and her unique heritage have allowed her to develop an “Eagle Vision”, allowing her to literally see through her bird. Ikaros can easily detect any points and persons of interest from afar, sometimes even through walls and roofs. This makes him an excellent companion when searching. In addition, Ikaros will sometimes swoop down on his own accord to hunt animals or even harass enemies to distract them with his razor-sharp claws. Ikaros is also extremely intelligent and agile, both able to speak to those who understand animals- though is a bird of very few words- and avoid most attacks directed at him. [/hider] [hider=Sparta Kick] [i]A legendary kick that knocks a target back… The kick is so powerful that multiple targets can be hit by the shockwave.[/i] An iconic Spartan move, Kassandra will commonly initiate a Sparta Kick if she either wants to stun her foe or put some distance between her and a more aggressive enemy. It’s also been used against “allies” who infuriate her, so beware her fiery temper. [/hider] [hider=Wrath of Ares] [i]Use the wrath of Ares to smash your spear into the ground, slowing all enemies in a 5 meter radius...[/i] An Enhanced Ability, the Wrath of Ares builds upon Kassandra’s Ring of Chaos ability and was learned in a very special adventure. Once her Spear of Leonidas is slammed into the ground, it’ll leave a golden spectre that acts as a visible “center”. Any enemy who comes within the spectre’s golden area will be significantly slowed to a crawl, leaving them vulnerable to attack. After 14 seconds, the ring will explode, damaging and likely knocking away anyone still in the ring’s radius; the more enemies in the ring, the more damage they will individually sustain. [/hider] [hider=Ares Bull Charge] [i]Summon a bull that charges through enemies and knocks them down...[/i] Ares Bull Charge is another Enhanced Ability learned by finding an empowering artifact. Replacing Bull Rush, it allows Kassandra to summon a holographic bull that will charge 20 meters ahead, plowing over anything and everything in its way. [/hider] [hider=Hero Strike] [i]Single strike attack unleashing the full power of the Spear of Leonidas.[/i] Kassandra lunges at her intended foe. If human-sized, she will knock them into the air, slamming her Spear into them to knock them down before pulling them up and stabbing with her Spear one more time in the back. If larger, the attack will simply deal significant damage. [/hider] Biography: [center][i]“I long for the old days! Remember them? They were simple! You had nothing—young and alone—and I had everything. And I gave you the world! Kephallonia—in the palm of your hand!”[/i][/center] [center][color=9e1316]“Kephallonia. Some gift.”[/color][/center] An Ancient Greek warrior, Kassandra is a Spartan-born mercenary whose primary goal was to earn drachmae. Whether this requires her skills as a true fighting misthios, silently taking down high-profile targets, or even performing mundane everyday tasks, she will take on any job given to her. In addition, she keeps her family dear- going to great lengths to reuniting and protecting them from those who wanted them dead. Other: Kassandra has previous from a bunch of past RPs. Also, this CS was ported from a more comprehensive document, and rewritten to avoid major spoilers.
