[CASSANDRA BISHOP]

CASSANDRA BISHOP

[/b][/size]
22 -- human -- hunter -- widow -- english

Cassandra Bishop is better known as "Cass" or "Bishop". She's a "hunter" but wasn't born into the lifestyle...she kind of married into it. Her husband was a young Irish hunter from a long line of skilled hunters and she loved him.
She and her husband had made a bit of a name of themselves back home in England- they weren't a couple people raved on about, but sometimes the hunter community would talk about "Bishop and Hayes".
Her husband was killed by Lycans last year, something which broke her heart, hardened her and sparked this hunger for vengeance against the race for taking someone she loved from her.

Cass is a skilled hunter but that's for only being part of this world for three years. For a newbie, she's quite kickass and exceptionally good. For a hunter in general? She's okay. She obviously isn't going to have anything on hunters that were born into the lifestyle and/or have been doing it for much longer than her and she's still got a lot to learn. But, she's determined to rid the world of Lycans and Vampires- Lycans in particular.

I see her as being more strategic, using her intelligence, observation and sharp-mind when it comes to fighting. As a woman, she might not have the strongest fist but using the skills listed she'll try to quickly pick up any patterns in movement so that she can anticipate someone's next move and make her own seconds before they do.
Weapons wise, she's better with long ranged weapons- her favorite being her custom-made crossbow and bolts.

Where once upon a time she was quite friendly and outgoing, Cass is now much more bitchier, colder and harsh in attitude. She's bold, blunt and sarcastic. Though, she does have a sense of humor of course- she isn't that much changed but she also takes her job very seriously.[/center]

I am done with my graceless heart

so tonight I'm gonna cut it out
& friends[/font][/right]

Cass may come off as a bitch but really, she can be a nice person...if your not a Lycan or Vampire.
She kind of cut herself off from others when her husband died but after a years mourning, it'd be good for her if she can gain some people in her life that she can care about and that will care about her again. Even though it'll scare the crap out of her because she's scared of losing people to death in her life.[/size][/color]

And then restart

cause I like to keep my issues strong
& lovers[/font][/right]

"Love" is unlikely right now, possible, but unlikely seeing as it's so soon from her husband's death.
What i wouldn't mind playing with is a more 'no-strings-attached' relationship, only, maybe a mutual trust and respect can be formed. A friendship, where they don't exactly talk about feelings (not at first anyway) but they do form a protectiveness and genuinely care about each other's well-being.[/size][/color]

It's always darkest before the dawn

shake it out, shake it out, shake it out
& enemies[/font][/right]

Lycans, Vampires and Demons would all go here. Cassie pretty much wants to rid the world of them all despite her main priority and target being Lycans. She's not the biggest threat against these but she shouldn't be underestimated either.[/size]

[RAPHAEL]

RAPHAEL && CASS ; ; as serious as he is, i think raphael would actually adore her. he's been tempted with liking women and i think he'd find her quite attractive...even though he knows its wrong. he pretty much loves all hunters because they're working to kill the supernatural beings that are harming god's creations, aka mortals. so i'm sure he'd regard her highly. maybe he even looks after her to see that she's never in danger...even if just from afar?

LILITH && CASS ; even though she's a newbie and perhaps not the best hunter in the area, i think lilith would still find her as a threat. she's beautiful and smart, which is something that would irritate lilith. i'm sure she'd constantly be looking for ways to make cass' life difficult or even try to possess her, even if she fails...i'm sure she'd always be waiting for the opportunity.

LUCIEN && CASS ; if she could look past the fact that he’s a vampire, i think these two could get alone. if she can’t, lucien would at least like her on a friend level. with his secret club, he’s trying to save the lives of humans by only feeding off of willing victims. he sees quite a few hunters through his doors who need charmed items or special ingredients that he sells on the black market. maybe they’ve had some sort of run in then? he much lets hunters have whatever they want in agreement that they don’t kill him and leave his club alone.

CARSON && CASS ; carson is the top hunter in san diego and sort of "runs" the group in the area. he's a manwhore and he's cocky...and likes to push other people's buttons. i'm sure he'd be up for a fling here or there but if cass wasn't onthe same page, he'd only want to tail here even more. he doesn't necessarily appreciate women in the business, but at the same time, i think he'd find her attractive if he saw her in action.

feel free to change/add/throw out anything

[EHREN R SPARKS]

CASSANDRA && EHREN ; oh these two would definitely not get along at all, being a lycan Cassie would no doubt try and kill her all the time- which I think would be very beneficial for them both....like...group therapy...and training...sort of thing..especially if cassandra found out that ehren asked for the bite and wasn't forced into it like most. what do you think?

[AZRIEL]

❧ AZRIEL & CASSANDRA
I had this little scene in my head when I read through Cassandra's app, and you can tell me if you think it'd be something Cassandra would do or not. I was imagining her getting into it with a vampire or a lycan--pick her poison--and Az swooping in and smiting the supernatural, thinking he's helping her. Then of course, she stands up and gives the angel a piece of her mind, very much a "I was doing just FINE on my own, thank you," kinda thing. And of course the angel will be completely flummoxed and start stuttering out an apology because he's a feather-brained idiot and would have no idea how to handle such a situation. I just thought it could be comical.

[CONNOR DEVLIN MCMURPHY]

MURPH&CASSANDRA

jennifer lawrence <3 moving on, lol. so since she married an irish guy and is english herself, im thinking that just maybe murphy and cassandra know each other. Since they did hunt in the same area. so maybe they bump into each other and are like 'you, what the hell are you doing here?' of course in their individual accents xD and I know this is just kinda a quick lame little post, but im running tight on time and just wanted to get something in here. we can hash out the finer details later (:

[/size][/center]

[CASSANDRA BISHOP]

Cass & Raphael

Ooooh, i really like this idea c:

Cass hasn't had much experience with Angels and Demons if any at all and though she has a good amount of second-hand knowledge i definitely think she'd know what to do if she crosses paths with them. So she'd be kind of weary if they ever do have a thread together? Usual self and possibly almost...ridiculous (to anyone other than herseld) because i do imagine at first maybe she holds a weapon up at him? Of which, other people would be like 'wtf are you doing, you ain't gonna even scratch him.' but in this sense, it'd be her lack of experience showing?
And she'd get even more pissy when she realizes just how stupid it is because she'd be pissed off with herself for making herself look lie a 'fool'.
...also, she'd find him attractive too because come on, Adam Levineeee! Hnnnggg asdfghjkl! unnaturally handsome angel.

Thoughts?

Cass & Lillith

Oh god. I think, although she would never admit it even to herself, this would definitely scare her...she's new to this all and the idea of being on Lillith's shit list? Of course it would!
I think also, the whole demon possession idea is something that would've always scared Cass from the beginning when she first learned about demons. So, yes, despite the 'fearless' front she might put on, she would be scared...

I quite like the idea of maybe something happening? Because i do love putting my characters through hell (no pun intended) and maybe we could play with the idea of getting one or two other characters involved?
Especially if Cass is going to be interacting with angels, then possibly having connections with other hunters on the site. It could be fun to stir up a bit of drama involving Lillith out to get Cass and maybe after a while (maybe when Cass has formed some relationships) Lillith could manage to trap her, maybe hurt her a bit, then posses her and make her do shit that'd mess Cass up and feel a whole load of remorse, anger and all those negative emotions?
Then either an angel or a hunter exorcises Lillith or Lillith could let Cass go just to see her crumble after everything done? For her own amusement.

I don't really know, your thoughts?

[/size]

Cass & Lucien

I think it really would depend...i think because knowing him benefits her, she'd at least not hate his guts?
It could develop into a friendship maybe but it'd definitely depend on her seeing that he's not that bad and actually believing it and getting past her current view...which might take some time but, it'd be good for her to at some point be able to get past her hate and let go of what's happened before with vampires.
[/size]

Cass & Carson

She would not bite at all hahaha. I think, his attitude would definitely repel her especially if he got in his head the idea that she'd just sleep with him casually? I think despite him being a big shot she'd just be like 'who the fuck do you think you are?' all attitude and stuff, but he's welcome to try and chase her and finally get her to cave to his obvious charm and good looks.
Though, i doubt she would...it'd depends how this actually plays out through threading really, it's one of those things were you can't say for definite how your character would respond.

Buuuut,
i am just going to leave this here.[/blockquote][/blockquote]
[/size][/color]

Cass & Ehren

Definitely not! Being a Lycan, Cass would instantly judge and hate. I think it's just how she deals with her husband's death- she blames the entire race...because Cassie's logic makes sense like that.
Them clashing going to be really fun to play out actually xD

I think, maybe due to Cassie's lack of experience, Ehren could be one of those that always manages to get away? And she can never seem to kill because of it? Which'll piss Cass off even more and possibly make her hate Ehren more too...
And Ehren can just eat it up, pushing her buttons?

[/size]

Cass & Azriel

I love this idea! Because she'd definitely be like that, only maybe her reaction would have one or two more swear words involved xD

Like i said in response to Raphael and Lillith, i think Cass hasn't had as much experience with Angels and Demons really if any at all so i do think she'd have her guard up despite Azriel being a good guy? Because she'd rather have her guard up around the unknown and be cautious.
Even though i'm sure he'll be unintentionally adorable in his flustered 'i did nothing wrong' state.

Cass & Murph

Yesss. Jlaw<3
I was actually thinking along these lines too when i was checking out apps and took a look at Connor's! I think it could've been very likely that they crossed paths a couple of times in the past.

I actually had this idea in my head that either...maybe even though they might not have actually been friends, maybe when her husband and Connor crossed paths in the past they almost always acted like friends in other people's view? But then whenever they're asked they're just like 'Friends? I barely know the lad.'
But maybe the two of them had a banter-filled acquaintance relationship too? Because Connor's a few years older than what Niall would've been, maybe he was always teasing him about just being a boy and stuff like that?

I don't know if i'm making any sense? xD
I just basically have this scene in my head based on my dad who's Irish...
Once, we went to a pub in Ireland and my dad started talking to these men as if they were old friends....just clicking with them instantly and having a laugh and when i asked him if they were friends of his he was like "No. I've never met them before, we were just having the crack." and i was like "But you got along with them so well?" and he replied "It's the Irish."
And i don't know if i am kinda generalizing but every Irish person i met, when with another Irish they just click instantly? xD

Sooo...with Cass and Connor, maybe she was dragged into this friendly banter from time to time? At first maybe kind of lost among the lad's banter but maybe sometimes Connor used to tease Niall using Cass? Like in a 'if you're not careful she'll leave you for me' kind of way and in typical Connor style flirted with her a lot?
But they overall didn't know each other as well? Seeing as Cass has only been aware of the supernatural world for three years...though, they'd know each other enough to be like you said 'you. what are you doing here?'

Here, have a GIFt (yes, i do realize this was a brilliant pun)[/blockquote][/blockquote]

...yes, it fits for our character's context.

[CONNOR DEVLIN MCMURPHY]

MURPH&CASSANDRA

thats a real swell gif, lol. Anyway, I totally know what you mean by them just instantly getting along and acting like they've known each other since they we're just wee children, but really had only crossed paths a few times. So yeah, I can see that connor would have teased Niall, all in good fun of course, and he defs would have gone on in his typical flirtatious fashion when talking to cass; despite not really knowing them. And now that she's on this side of the pond and without her husband he would be like 'uhh, wait, where's the other half?" And be something of a nosy Parker about it, util she told him to piss off of course lol

[/size][/center]

[AZRIEL]

❧ AZRIEL & CASSANDRA
Ooooh, I love it. The cursing would just make Az blush like nobody's business. He's such an old fashioned schmuck. I see their relationship being highly entertaining!

[EHREN R SPARKS]

CASSANDRA && EHREN ; definitely! Ehren would likely figure it out and use Cassandra to work on evasion of hunters or something, while pushing buttons. it sounds like a lot of fun!

[RAPHAEL]

RAPHAEL && CASS ; sounds good...of course, he wouldn't find any offense in her trying to threaten him. he'd more or less, let her know that he's trying to help her wherever possible.

LILITH && CASS ; yeah, that sounds like a plan to me . pretty much no one likes lilith anyway so i can imagine plenty of people would try to turn on her if they found out a hunter was in danger. of course, lilith wouldn't make it easy on cass, but she can be defeated...she's usually too caught up being a premadonna to notice who's ganging up on her.

LUCIEN && CASS ; regardless if she likes him or not, he'd at least be happy to not be dead..haha.

CARSON && CASS ; sounds good, and nice gif <333 picspam.
