Mistress Dizzy

Hopefully Sanctuary

She's probably feeling little flashes of people on the street. Not much by themselves but grating altogether. Also she can feel the cab driver, but nothing really from Roxy.

Kassandra

Name: Kassandra Keigwan

Codename: Mirage

Age: 20

Home: [one of the Seven Kingdoms, Sub Diego, or surface world if you're gonna be that one guy/girl] (Wherever the merpeople come from? I dunnno)

Powers/Abilities: *Illusions - Kassy's most versatile ability is that she can form illusions of all 5 senses. Sight and sound are the easiest for her; tactile illusions a bit more difficult. Smell and taste are possible for Kassy, but she's not very good at them; mostly because those are quite subjective. Her favorite tricks are to make herself invisible and soundless, leaving her able to easily surprise unaware enemies.

*Resistance - Kassy has a natural resistance, and in some cases, immunity to other mental attacks. Another illusionist will be ineffective against her, and another mind controller would have to be extremely powerful (and only focused on her) to defeat her.

*Human Shape - While Kassy does usually go around with a tail, she can walk on land for hours at a time. How long she can manage depends on how hydrated she is at the time, but she will have to go into water within 24 hours. Usually she has to spend her nights in a bath or pool.

*Staff combat – Kassy’s magic staff is very durable, and she’s learned to use it as a physical weapon. The octopus figure topping it is weighted, and packs a punch.

*Knife combat – While she would much prefer to stay out of the action, if she has to, Kassy can defend herself with a small hooked fishing knife.

Weaknesses: Her illusions do not work on robots or electronic devices, and most of the time, animals won't be fooled by the sight/smell illusions. The more people she is trying to fool, the weaker the illusions are.

Equipment: *Elemental Staff – The staff Kassy carries is made of metal with a magical core, and it’s covered in various runes. She has elemental spells ‘programmed’ in, ones that she can use at will to control fire, water, air and earth. There is a figure of an octopus that tops the staff, whose eyes light up to correspond with the running spell. (Kassy has named this figurine Damiek.)

Experience: [1-4 years] 1 year

Reason For Joining: [why did you choose to help the former King?] Because someone had to. Also, she was tired of working by herself in her tiny hometown , to limited success.

Appearance: Kassy is about 5’8'' and rather pudgy, with dark skin and thick, curly white hair. Her eyes are bright orange, with wide pupils. She has a long orange tailfin.

BRIEF Bio: Kassandra was born with a rare type of magic, one that had been systematically expunged from her race's DNA. Her grandfather could read minds. Her mother could speak to the dead. Kassy herself can cast illusions of all sorts, tricking minds into seeing or hearing things. She is feared in the town she comes from, and had to operate in secret while trying to defend the town. This isolation took it's toll on her, so when the call came, she leapt at the chance to do something truly useful.

Notes: Kassy has a lovely singing voice.

Devika fidgeted while they were waiting for the taxi. She hadn't spoken much during their outing so far. Most of her time was spent staring wide eyed at other people (while they pointedly ignored her) and sticking close to Roxy. Once the taxi arrived, she exhaled, wiping a sheen of sweat from her forehead.

"I've forgotten what it was to feel other people like that." She rubbed her face with both hands, sighing faintly. "I think I'll be meditating tonight." By the time she calmed down, they were halfway there. A long silence ensued.

"So. Roxy." Devika started slowly, realizing she didn't know the first thing about this woman. "Do you have any family?" There, that should be a nice topic.

Spontaneity and Adaptability (Seeking High Casual/Advanced Partner)

I just finished the Broken Earth trilogy, actually! Nice to meet a fellow fan. I'd be interested in plotting with you. :)

I'm interested.

I must say I'm disappointed, but thank you for at least being honest.

Kassy realized a bit too late that she might have been being a bit acerbic. Too late to take it back though. At least the other girl didn't seem offended. Even better (better?), it seemed that Kassy wasn't the only one who knew nothing about metahumans. Maybe this girl had just gotten her abilities, or something. She'd always heard that big cities had plenty of Metas to go around.

"Well, you're right. Maybe I'll be surprised and something amazing will happen." Or maybe she would be lost on the outskirts again.

"So..." Kassy picked at her food, eyes downcast briefly. "If you don't mind my asking, what can you do?"

"Right. I didn't think about that." Showed just how much Devika knew about motorcycles. "Oh well. Maybe in the future." Devika followed Roxy downstairs, wondering what it would feel like to be so close to another person. It had been years since she'd touched anyone on purpose. It was just one of the many 'perks' of being an empath. Many people with her same power found it enhanced through touch, so they had to be very careful about being near others. Thus, the usual isolation for an uncontrolled empath like her. But maybe with Roxy's help, she could get to a point of handshakes. Maybe even hugs!

After following Roxy outside and back into the van, she put on her seatbelt and sat there, contemplating. "...it occurs to me that I am going to need a driver's licence at some point in my life."
