LIKES
DISLIKES
FEARS
SECRETS
* She is a certified genius. The reason she does so poorly in school is because she is just lazy. She feels people already have a view on her and loves to show them up by how intelligent she really is
* She acts tough but is really a scared and insecure kid inside who just wants people to notice and like her for who she really is
OVERALL PERSONALITY
On the outside she seems like a tough as nails kid. She is rebellious, sarcastic and frequently back-talks. She is a bit of a smart-ass and is extremely intelligent for her age. She doesn't give a damn about what other think of her; as long as she has faith in herself and her Dad had faith in her that's all she needs. She acts like on of those stereotypical bad-asses.
But if you can get past her tough exterior she really is a good kid. She is nice and caring and her compassion knows no bounds. If she knows you she is willing to give you the shirt off of her back even if it is raining outside. She is just a bit more distant with people she doesn't know because growing up she used to be this kind and caring person. But when she started showing off her intelligence she got shunned and no one wanted to be her friend or even be near her. So she acts tough and talks big and gets people to respect her by fear. She doesn't know any other way to make friends

HISTORY
Artemis was out one day surveying the area when she saw a young hurt stag. She immediately wanted to go over to it but heard someone coming so she hid herself. She saw a boy no older then the age of 16 walk right over to the animal. The stag was scared out of its mind but the youth was not so easily defeated. He spoke soothing words to the stag as it seemed to calm down in the boy's presence. Artemis was impressed; no one besides herself had such a way with animals. The teenage patched up the stag and took it back home where he tried to nurse it back to health.
Unfortunately, the poor thing died after a few hours of Alexander trying to save it. Alexander immediately felt bad and blamed himself because he felt like he could have done more to hep the animal. Artemis, who was quite curious about this youth, decided to disguise herself as a human girl and follow him around. She met the boy who's name was Alexander and became acquainted with him. She learned that Alexander's parents worked on a Wildlife Preserve so he knew a thing or two about protecting and taking care of animals.She also learned that earlier in the week his beloved older sister had died. After spending maybe a week with him she decided that he was worthy of a gift since he had done everything in his power to save that wild stag and even felt bad that he wasn't able to save it.
Since she is the Goddess of the Hunt and the Moon her daughter would have the best of both worlds.
Since she is the daughter of a maiden goddess she wasn't born but created and arrived as a baby as a gift to her father. Baby Cassandra was made of the moon. Since the Moon represents resurrection and life; Cassandra was born and created through this magnificent life force. Her skin tone and body shape were mostly taken off a picture of Alexander's sister that he had shown Artemis earlier in the week. Her father Alexander was a mix between African American and Mexican. So she would have his skin tone and most of his features. Artemis, being happy with her handiwork at creating such a beautiful child had a wolf deliver to her friend and fellow Goddess Hestia. She was impressed by Artemis' selflessness and gladly delivered the child to find where her father lived. She found Alexander's house and placed the baby next to him while he slept.
When Alexander woke up in the morning he was shocked and surprised to find an infant laying next to him with a note from Artemis explaining the situation. She explained how the baby was his new daughter and how she was a gift for him doing everything he could do to help save that stag. And Cassandra was also a gift because she would look exactly like the beloved sister he had lost. This was a surprise to the then 16yr old teenage. I mean, one minute he meets this gorgeous chick and the next minute he finds an infant in his bed. He didn't really know what to do but he did his best to raise the little girl as best as he could. He gave her all of the love and attention that any little girl could ask for. He basically had to give up his dreams of going to a normal college and go to a community college while his mother helped raise Cassie. One day when Cassandra was maybe two or three she was walking down the street with her Dad when she found a boy sleeping on a park bench. He was no older then 10 yrs.
At first the then 19yr old father was scared to let Cassie go near him but she got out of his grasp. She waddled over to him and gently nudged the boy. He sat up and looked at the strange little girl. She motioned for him to pick her up and he did. He then began to play with her and she was smiling and laughing with him. She was completely at ease with the boy. Alexander did the only thing he knew to do..take the boy home with him. Her and Casey became immensely close and are still close to this day.
Raising a demigod daughter was unconventional. Since she was a daughter she constantly threw temper tantrums and rebelled at an early age. She also had an intellect equal to a genius and she was just trying to fit in with kids her age. but this was impossible since she was such a prodigy and got to skip a few grades. Since she had a rough time making friends and didn't understand what was wrong with her she rebelled and acted out.She disrupted class, picked fights, cut her extremely long hair and got piercings all down her ears.
Her father didn't understand what was wrong with her so he just let her. But by her 15th birthday he had, had enough. He said that if she didn't shape up he would have to send her away. This immediately snapped her out of her bad phase. She hugged him and told him she'd do better. And she did but she still had a bad attitude. A year later after having a discussion with Hestia, her father sent her away to the stupid Half Blood camp she had never head about. He said that she would find her destiny there and that he was rooting for her here at home.
When she arrived there there was a box waiting for her. Inside was a choker necklace that had a small moon on it. Also inside was a pair of matching earrings which turned into twins swords. Inside was also a letter from Artemis telling her about who and what she was. She said that she was sorry that she hadn't been a big part of her life. But that it had been forbidden. Finally there were two Hair-clips that when used, turn into a bow with a quiver full of arrows with the symbol of the moon on them. Cassie took the gifts but didn't understand why after all this time her mother couldn't just visit her and so since she was stuck at this camp she decided she would be the one to liven it up a bit.

Cas sat up as she had another nightmare. She sat forward with her brow sweating as she shook like a leaf. She looked around and wondered where her father and Casey were. But then she remembered that she was at this stupid Camp Half-Blood and that her father and brother were back home, where she wish she was. She pushed these thoughts from her head as she got out of bed. She was still in her pajamas which consisted on a Cami and a pair of short shorts.
She stepped out of her cabin as she stretched herself out. She ruffled her hair a bit and began her usual night-time walk around the camp. She immediately tensed up when she saw something dark flash before her. But when it came into the light of the moon she sighed in relief. A small peregrine falcon floated from the sky and lands onto her outstretched arm. It chirps at her as she places her hand over her heart. "You scared me Soren" she spoke as she gently stroked the bird's chest. It leaned into her hand as she smiled at its actions.
She had found the falcon earlier this week with a broken wing. She had nursed it back to health and now the crazy little thing never seemed to leave her alone. But it looked good on her shoulder it made her look like her goddess mother. She ignored that idiotic thought as she sat on a bench outside of the cabin. "It's so nice outside tonight" she told the bird as it nodded in silent agreement. "I wonder what Artemis is doing or thinking right now?" she wondered out loud as she gently stroked the necklace her mother had left her when she had first arrived at this accursed place
