Cassie O'Donnell

[abelover17]

The Handler

Name: Cassie Costanza O'Donnell
Nickname: Cass, Stanzie
Classification: Human
Gender: Female
Age & Birthday: Jan. 27, 1759
Appearance: Cassie doesn't have an extremely fit body, but she isn't fat. Her body has grown back to normal after the years that she has worn a corset. Now she is a normal sized girl for the age that she looks similar to. Cassie is 249 years old, but looks as though she is 26. Cass is 5'8" and around 143 lbs.

She has Irish pale skin with the loads of freckles that come along with the territory, but she does not have the accent. Cassie's facial features are similar to Katy Perry's. Her eyes are a light green that is boarded by a darker green. Cassie's hair is long and black with a single streak of light, an almost highlighter, green in it. Cassie has a tendency to wear her hair up in different hairstyles on different days

On Cassie's arms are swirling, twisted, stylized, black tattoos. The tattoos go from the top of the palms of her hands to her shoulders. They are only on the top of the arm.. Cassie has some battle wounds from the past that never healed, but none that have any significant meaning to her. They are just the marks from past scuffles.
Attire: Cassie has a certain color palette that has seemed to follow her and define her throughout her life, the palette being the green of the streak in her hair and black. Similar to that, she has little pieces of that everywhere on her outfits.

On duty, she is usually wearing a black t-shirt or tank top that has some from of green design on them, the standard boots required by the B.P.R.D, and either a black skirt with black tights or black, skinny pants. She wears the required belt given to her by the B.P.R.D, usually worn loosely around her hips.

When Cassie is off duty or just hanging out before a mission, she is wearing the most interesting outfits. Subconsciously keeping to her color palette, she is usually wearing a pair of baggy, black pants; a green, black, or green and black shirt; and black socks or slippers. Cassie is also known to wear just a really baggy t-shirt, sweatshirt, or buttoned down, oxford shirt with some leggings.

There is only one thing that is consistent with both her off duty and her on duty outfits. Ever since Cassie could remember, she has always owned a small necklace. The necklace is a silver chain with a silver pendent that has a detailed Mandala carved on it. Cassie acquired it when she traveled to make money and survive. In Buddhism, the Mandala is a symbol for harmony and it keeps to it's meaning. If Cassie can't find her Mandala, she goes crazy and believes that she will be cursed with bad luck until she can find it, therefore throwing herself in an unnecessary craze of paranoia until she finds it.

The Creation

Name: Cass, Buddha ((Because of the Mandala around her neck)), Mozart ((She shares the same birthday as him and he is her favorite composer))
Power List: 1. terrakinetic - has the power to control Earth.
2. aerokinetic - has the power to control Air.
3. hydrokinetic - has the power to control Water.
Detailed Power: There is much to be said about Cassie's powers. She has the ability to control earth, wind, and water, but she also has the ability to completely turn into the elements ((become solid earth/wind/water)). Also along with being able to control the elements, she takes on characteristics of the elements ((is able to fly with air, able to shape shift with earth and water)). She cannot do any of the extraordinary things without the aid of the elements ((Cannot fly unless using air/cannot shape shift without the aid of earth or water)).

Something interesting that concerns Cassie's powers. Whenever Cassie is using an element, her eyes and tattoos turn a certain color that pertain to the element. Cassie's tattoos and eyes turn brown for Earth, white for Air, and blue for water.

The Potential

Alignment/Occupation: Cassie works for the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense.
Weapons: Cassie mostly uses her powers as her weapons, but is known to use other things for combat. She, of course, uses the standard handgun that is issued to agents when they join the Bureau, but Cassie also can throw knives. Cassie has a couple of knives that she got when she was traveling in a marketplace. The woman who sold them to her said that they were bewitched to always make their way back to the holder of the knives, Cassie never has had to go off and look for them because she can never loose them.
Personality: Cassie has a personality that is just as loud as she is. Cassie loves to sing, dance, draw, write, read, and listen to music. Even though she is very old age wise, Cassie still seems to have the heart of a child, taking pleasures in the simple things in life, but that doesn't mean that she likes to party. On her time off, she is known to sometimes go out on the town and party or just go out and have a fun time. Cassie doesn't have to be with people or be doing something extravagant to be entertained. One could give Cass a paddleball toy and she would entertained for hours.

Even though she has the heart of a child, Cassie does not always act like a child.She likes to party, but also knows when it is time be serious. Sometimes in the case of a really important mission, Cassie can sometime stress herself so badly that she can begin to ignore everything that has nothing do with the case they are working on. Cassie likes researching and learning new things. Cassie knows that when a mission is at hand, there is no time for fooling around even though she can be sometimes found for making wise cracks about certain things on missions as an attempt to keep the mood from being to 'boring'.
Skills: Cassie has some general knowledge that she has acquired from her travels such as some folklore about mystical/magical/mythalogical creatures, but she is not a genius when it concerns that. She still needs to look stuff up. Cassie also is able to speak French, Italian, and German fluently
Strengths: Cass doesn't have any added bonuses from her powers to help her with her basic combat skills, reason, or endurance. Those traits she has worked on to make them good enough to not get her killed in the heat of battle. Cassie is very loyal. She would do anything for her friends and wouldn't betray them under any circumstances. Cassie is very flexible with arrangements and very easy to live with. If someone is needed on another mission as apposed to the one that they were already assigned and Cassie was asked to fill in, Cassie wouldn't even flinch or care and say yes. She is very easy to room with. If the team were on a mission that required them to stay over in the city/country that they were in, Cassie would the be last person picked, but not because nobody wanted to room with her.
Weaknesses: Cassie has some weaknesses, but not a lot. Cassie has sometimes been known to have some of a temper because she is stubborn. Sometimes even her own stubbornness can get her temper going. Cassie also has a weakness for smart guys ((hence why she has a slight thing for Abe)). Along with liking smart guys, she is very protective of her friends. This can sometimes lead to her not thinking because she wants to protect her friends or this protectiveness can sometimes lead to her temper when her friends are hurt. Her temper has been known to flair and get out of control when she is mad, too. It's very hard for her to control her powers when she is mad.

History: Cassie O'Donnell was born on Jan. 27, 1759 in ((now)) Belfast, Ireland. She did not notice her powers until she was only 9 years old. When she was 9, that is when her powers started to pop up one after another. When she was 9, the first power that popped up was water. Cassie didn't know what she was doing because one minute she was playing outside of her family's house then she started to scream because her arm was completely turned into water. Her family would come to realize that the reason that her arm was water was because she was thirsty. As Cassie's powers started to appear every year, her family started to abuse her, making her use her powers for general chores. By the time that she was 12 years old, Cassie's powers consisted of Earth, Wind, and Water, but those gifts soon turned into curses. Cassie would come to almost ruin and even kill her family multiple times. She almost killed her father by blowing him across the field and nearly killing him. Cassie almost ruined the family by flooding half of their fields, killing most of their crops. The only power that seemed to help was Earth, but then again causing a mudslide near your house because you didn't want to do chores may constitute as not having a handle on your powers. A few months after Cassie's 13th birthday, her mother dropped her off in town and left her there. Cassie didn't know what to do, but to walk. Cassie walked off into the woods and managed to live off the land until someone picked her up off the side of the road and dropped her off at a homeless shelter.

The year was 1845 when she was finally picked up and she looked around 24 years old.

After escaping the clutches of the homeless shelter, Cassie then traveled all over, acquiring knowledge through folklore, legends, and history. Cassie, never there for long, has tasted a little bit of each language, religion, and cuisine. While she traveled, she would use her powers to earn money by doing some of the same meaningless tasks that got her family would make her do. After a while, she still appeared to look 24, but was actually 110 years old. Cassie managed to earn enough money to get her back to Belfast. There she lived underneath the Belfast Opera House, digging a tunnel between the Opera House and the Belfast Library. There she learned how to read, write, and speak French, Italian, and German. After living there for a while, she moved up from the Opera House/Library to an apartment, but the lingual lessons that she was teaching at a local school could only pay for so much. She was evicted about 3 months before the B.P.R.D team found her near starving in an alleyway in Belfast. The team asked her to join them and soon became attached to the addicting personality that Cassie seems to have. That time would also be the time in which Cassie started to get feelings for the brains of the operation, Abe Sapien.

Now a working member of the research and development as well as a new member of the famous field team and currently is 249 years old.
