Character Personality: She is confident of her skills but doesn’t trust others. She is quiet and always thinking about something. She is restless, she wants to do things, feel things but doesn’t know what they are. She is learning to let go but is still closed and difficult to understand. She is often misjudged to be heartless when she keeps her concerns to herself. Her sleep is troubled so when she wakes she runs and climbs, this is the only way she can focus on the world and not the horrors she had seen. When she is angry she is ferocious and can do anything.

Character History: Cassiopeia was born in the forest of life's shadows. She was left there with her guardian Circe who raised her to be a warrior. She grew close to her but life was quiet and she grew restless. She mastered the arts but never felt for them, something was missing and she believes her parents hole the key. Magic was the only thing she truly enjoyed, the thrill of doing things no ordinary person with a teacher can do. Circe was constantly pushing her into war-craft, and she wonders whether that is where she wants to go, into killing without mercy, without judgement. Killing for someone-else's reasons. She has been training in the forest since she was five years old. to see the past she must look into water or sometimes in her dreams. Everyday she goes to body of water in the hope her parents will appear. She has spent her life longing for them and wondering, wondering what they could give her and why they left her in the woods, with an uncaring guard to mold her.

One night she saw a child running through the forest and diving into the darkest pool, where the weak lose all but existence and step out a shell of life, the girl swam deeper into hell’s tempting glow and screamed, screamed so loudly that not even the water could silence her. She began to swim up fighting the mud, swimming on pure emotion, until she was crawling on the muddy banks where she wept an eternal cry. It was then that Cassiopeia saw into her eyes and saw Circe and knew she had to leave, for fighting is futile when there is nothing to fight for. Circe may have kept her strength but she had lost her purpose.

Weapons: Twin blades made of silver marked with the words “I write my own destiny”. She also has a bow and seventeen arrows.

Likes: She likes thing to be quiet but she find silence unsettling. She likes animals but is wary of people. She likes to think things through before doing anything. She likes a good fight especially when she wins. She likes forest areas and they are the only places she feels truly safe.

Dislikes: She dislikes people who don’t listen and don’t try to understand. She hates being rushed and will snap when pushed to far. She hates fire but can face it and will do anything to put it out. She hates people who believe that they have no choice in life.

Animal Companions: she has many animal companions, a wolf, a squirrel, an eagle and a horse. Her wolf is called Luciel, he is male, white and very protective of her. The squirrel is black and is called shadow, he generally follows people to find out where their loyalties lie. Her eagle is called lightning and is a very proud creature, it’s eyes are golden and they match his wings, he sends messages back to the woman who raised her in the forest. Her horse is called dragon dancer, she rides on it everywhere she goes.

Character's Physical Description: her eyes match her hair and are as black as coal. She is slender and hides her strength well. To the onlooker she is fragile but beneath her beauty is a great power. Under her eyes are deep bags that speak of fatigue, it is true she is tired but not from lack of sleep; she is tired of being empty and trying so hard to fill herself up. Her armor is black and engraved with silver, climbing up all over her with leaves sprouting up from her legs. She pushes herself to the extreme leaving her body constantly bruised. She sleeps little and fears what she’ll see, sometimes she wakes with blood on her face which has stained her eyelashes blood red.
Dreams for the Future: She dreams of finding out about her past, ending Galbatorix’s reign, finding a life outside of prophecy and finding out about the world that has for so long passed her by.

Reason for Dreams: because she was raised in a forest by an elf who kept many secrets. She dreams of ending Galbatorix’s reign because she is very sensitive to evil and when the land is suffering so does she. She is tired of destiny and people telling her what is going to happen she wants to be free to live normally. Growing up in a forest has kept her blind to normal life and she wants to find out what she has missed by growing up so quickly and so differently.

Alignment/side: She is on the side of good.

i don't want to sound inpatient but...
how long will it take before it's approved?

its fine, until Glenwing gets back

Actually, now that I read it over...seeing into the FUTURE is a bit god-modding....since it allows here to see what the enemy is going to do next.

Can she still see the past but not the future?
Its just that's where her name come from
It's the name of a seer

yes, past is fine. *accepted*
