<div class="floatleft">(https://ilarge.lisimg.com/image/8681887/820full-doukissa-nomikou.jpg)</div><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"> Cassandra</span><br/><br/><br/><strong>Name</strong>: Cassandra<br/><strong>Species</strong>: Human<br/><strong>Age</strong>: 3,200, plus or minus a few.<br/><strong>Gender</strong>: Female<br/><strong>Sexuality</strong>: Lesbian, polyamorous if needed but often prefers monogamy.<br/><strong>Staff or Guest</strong>: Guest<br/><strong>Appearance</strong>: Looks mid 20's, a fairly standard human female. Blonde, short and slender, at only five feet tall and a few pounds over 100. No tattoos, and just the basic earlobe piercings. Heterochromia, blue and green.<br/><br/><strong>Personality</strong>:Weary. Cassandra has been all over the world, seen most of what humanity has to offer, and was impressed by very little of it. Not much has changed in her 3,000 years of life span. The world spins on, and she gets ever so slightly more cynical and dispirited every century.<br/><br/>She is reasonably intelligent and wise, and likes to give out good advice, despite the fact that it never ends well.<br/><br/>A dark joke is funnier than a socially acceptable one. After all, aren't we all dark jokes to the gods? Despite it all, at her core, Cassandra is a kind and even loving, if she approves of someone.<br/><br/><strong>Background</strong>: Cassandra was born sometime around 1100 BC. There are various mythological accountings of her life in that era, but three facts are indisputable.<br/><br/>She was at the Trojan War, and none of her various deaths seem to last, somehow. She claims to be married to the actual, literal Apollo, God of the Sun. She wandered the world for centuries, trying to find answers to her various conditions. There were none to be found.<br/><br/>Something called her to the Green Lion, and she considers one place pretty much as good as another. At least in a refuge for the strange and unusual, she wouldn't be the oddest thing around. And most places she tried to settle in tended to end up not going well... Fire and death type of not going well. Perhaps the pub, tucked away from everything, would be small and protected enough to survive.<br/><br/><br/><strong>SKILLS &amp; POWERS:</strong><br/>+ - Prophecy. Cassandra can see the future. It's sometimes murky and endlessly shifting around, and remarkably less useful than anyone ever thinks, but she can do it.<br/><br/>Few people tend to believe her, even if and when she sees something useful.<br/><br/><br/>+ - Immortal. Blessed (or more likely cursed) by the God of the Sun himself (Allegedly. It's all mistranslated myths anyway.), every time Cassandra dies, she is revived, healthy and whole, exactly as fresh as the day she received the barbed gift. This sounds good on the surface, but three thousand years is a long time to live. And she has absolutely no guarantee that death will ever find her.<br/><br/>+ Cassandra's tears. Almost as many myths and rumors about her tears exist as about the woman herself. They are reputed to have all sorts of properties, ranging from the factual to the absolutely absurd.<br/><br/>They are claimed to be healing, (true, somewhat.) To give people who ingest them limited foresight or telepathy, (possibly, occasionally true, for all the good it gives people...) To cause flight or night vision (What? Not at all.) Or even to let vampires walk in the sun. (.....shrug?)<br/><br/>It has of course been a very very long time since she's shed a single tear.<br/><br/>+Linguistics. She's fluent in a remarkable number of languages, mostly because she watched them evolve.<br/><br/><strong>Ons:</strong>Books, travel, beautiful women, books, dominant women, books, a quiet life.<br/><br/>( Pretty much anything on the writers on list, possibly even more if negotiated.)<br/><strong>Offs:</strong>Her age, being immortal, pushy men, sometimes men in general, how fast mortals fade, being single.<br/><br/>The usual limits of no scars, trauma, death, vomit, gore, rape.<br/>
