Cassy was somewhere between level 1 and level 2, but I don't know exactly how much it was...
precrash-didn’t-get-to-update-it-yet updates are green
Name: Cassandra Marie Skye
Age: 24
Weight: 100lbs
Height: 5'
Eye Color: Green
Hair Color: Brown
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Appearance: Cassy usually wears neutral colored pants that are form fitting, and a warm colored tunic that comes just to the tops of her thighs. The tunic is also snugly fitted to her body, but not so much so that it reveals everything about her body. It is still loose enough so that one must use their imagination as to what exactly lies beneath the tunic. Her tunic is also belted with a simple cloth belt. Cassy is very slender and very beautiful. On her feet she wears plain leather walking shoes. Her chestnut brown hair falls just past her shoulders and is usually worn loose or in a ponytail with a few strands left loose at the front to frame her lovely face. Her eyes are a warm brown color and always seem to smiling. Her skin is lightly tanned from being in the sun most of the time. Cassy now wears a jeweled ring on the third finger of her right hand.
Personality: Cassy is a light-hearted soul, and is easy to make friends with. She is slow to anger, but once angered her temper is quite vicious. She is very clean and very much enjoys the amenities of city life, but is not a stranger to living in the woods or on the road.
Weapon: Though she carries a small knife on her belt, her weapon of choice is an oak staff. Her staff is 5'6" long and 3" in diameter. Each end is capped about 3" down the length of the staff with iron. The purpose of this is to give her staff a little extra weight when in battle. When not in use as a weapon, Cassy uses it as a walking stick and so unless it is stored in a room at an inn, it is in her hands at all times.
The knife blade is 6" long and is made of iron. It is incased in a leather sheath which hangs from her belt on her left side.
Cassy also now posses a dual blade sword. It is made of simple steel and the hilt in the middle is wrapped in ordinary brown leather. Each blade is 3' long, and the hilt is 1' long.
Skills:
Agility: Cassy is small but very agile. She is quite flexible and fast, though not very physically strong
Whirlwind attack: Cassy’s only specialty attack. It requires intense concentration and control. At this point the effort required for that concentration and control is such that she can only do this attack once every six hours and only once per battle.
How it works:
Cassy spins the staff in front of her in a circle as fast as possible until it becomes a blur. As soon as it becomes such a blur, Cassy quickly snaps the ends once in each of four places, the upper right, then the lower left, upper left and lower right. As soon as she snaps the lower right, she brings the staff diagonally in front of her in a defensive position. She currently has this done in 5-6 seconds, but is not entirely accurate, however one does need to be very fast to avoid all the hits.
Magic:
Rain: Cassy can make a small rainstorm by concentrating very hard. At the moment, it lasts only for one post and is very light, barely dampening the ground and dissipates on the second post after casting it. Cassy is unable to do anything else while she is concentrating to cast it.

History:
Cassandra, called Cassy for short, was born to a couple living in Radasanth. She grew up here, living a normal girl’s life. She was an only child and although her father had hoped she would be a boy, he did not do as some fathers might have done and shun her. Instead he taught her as he would a son.
Cassy went on numerous camping trips with her father in the area around Radasanth and even into the Red Forest a few times. As a result, she learned to be very wood-wise and loves the outdoors. Seeing that his beloved daughter would like to travel the world long before the thought even settled in her mind, Cassy’s father taught her how to use a staff. She was a quick study and soon had the basics down pat.
At 15 years of age, Cassy came into her first romantic contact with a boy. Aaron was quite handsome and was very sweet. Soon they started dating regularly and everyone in their neighborhood thought the two would be married. But it was not to be.
Just a mere four months into their relationship, Cassy discovered just how controlling Aaron really was. She told him she was going out of town with her father for a camping trip. Now, Aaron was a city boy and did not like the great outdoors at all and so did not want Cassy to be going out into the woods. He forbade her to go and she pleaded with him to let her go. After all she would be with her father.
Aaron would not relent though and angrily, Cassy told him she was going whether he liked it or not. On that camping trip with her father, she talked a lot about what she wanted for her own future and it occurred to her that if Aaron didn’t want her to go on a camping trip with her father, then he would never let her follow her other dreams and interests.
On her return to her home, she sadly broke the news to Aaron that she did not think they could work things out due to her wanting to go do so many things. With unshed tears brimming her eyes, she watched Aaron stride away. Other boys came in and out of her young life during her adolescent years, but she would never forget her first boyfriend.
When she was 20 years old, Cassy packed a small traveling bag with extra clothes and some food. The time had come, she told her parents, that she set out to see the world as she had wanted to do since the age of 14. Her parents, though they did not want to see their little girl leave, nodded and hugged and kissed her good bye. With promises to come back and see them again, Cassy set off to see the world.
It has now been four years since she left home and she has traveled very far. She always finds something new about places she goes back to though, so she does not mind revisiting places. She has kept her promise to visit her parents and writes them on a regular basis so that they do not worry about her. To earn money for her food she does light work wherever she can get it, whether it is minding a fruit stall for a few hours or washing dishes to earn a room for a night.
While in the quiet town of Underwood, Cassy took a room at the Peaceful Promenade. There she met several people, the most interesting being a man named Soul Warumono. Over the course of the night they became reasonably good friends, but in the morning went their separate ways. A few weeks later, in Scara Brae, Cassy received a letter from Soul asking if she would like to travel with him for a little while. Cassy jumped at the opportunity and hurried to meet him.
As they chatted over dinner and a dance, Cassy found that she liked him more and more. They made plans to go for a long hike up the river that fed the great lake nearby. However that night, all their hopes were dashed to pieces. Through the carelessness of a late night cook, the inn they were staying at caught on fire. Once Cassy was safe outside, Soul went back in to help evacuate the rest of the tenants. Sadly, while he was making one last survey of the tavern area, the roof over him collapsed, trapping him beneath its burning materials. He never did come out.
Saddened by the sudden loss of what was starting to be a wonderful relationship, Cassy went on to Corone and wandered the countryside there. Several months after the inn burning in Scara Brae, Cassy found herself on a road through a forested area of Corone. There she was met by three bandits. The bandits attacked, desiring both her money and her body, but help arrived in the form of a Kiran.
Luther drove the bandits off and then Cassy walked and talked with him for the rest of the time they were traveling in the same direction. While they traveled, Luther taught her a simple rainstorm spell. The two separated for a small time, and then Luther sent word that he was back. Cassy, eager to see her friend again set off down the road. Now that they have been reunited, Cassy and Luther are not often seen apart, a lovely romance blossoming between the two.
They are followed by assassins bent on destroying Luther and all his race, but so far, none have been able to do more than cause minor injuries. Cassy is confident that she and Luther will triumph completely over these assassins and then be able to lead a life without having to worry if the person walking beside them is hunting them.
