| Physical Description | With a toned yet curvy physique and standing at five feet four inches tall, Cassie tends to be on the smaller side than most Xenonians. However she considers her smaller size an advantage in her line of work, especially when she needs to reach tight spaces that can often trigger claustrophobia in other people. She prefers to wear the coveralls variant of the engineering uniform while working as it provides better protection than the standard Starfleet uniform and she finds it more comfortable, albeit hers is more form fitting than most. She keeps her hair loose or in a simple ponytail for most occasions, but when she has to enter tight spaces or working near mechanical or electrical systems, she’ll change it into her favorite French twist style to keep it out of the way. |

Personality & Traits
| General Overview | Cassie tends to be interest driven. She does her job well as an engineer, and often goes above and beyond when dealing with critically important tasks, but she often tends to become obsessive to a fault if something catches her fascination. Her headstrong and independent nature allowed her to achieve her objectives regardless of hindrances, but tends to make her irreverent at best and insubordinate at worst which has gotten her into trouble plenty of times. Despite this, she’s frequently laid back (sometimes a little too much) and friendly if the person fits her vibe, but when someone irritates her for any reason it often doesn’t end well… for the other person. But to her friends, she’s a hardcore ride or die. She’s incredibly loyal to a fault and won’t think twice about making trouble if it helps out someone she considers a friend. Much like her headstrong personality, this trait of hers accounts for almost half of the times why she ended up in the brig. |

| Hobbies & Interests | Cassie has a very extensive weapons collection, not just historical firearms and blades of all kinds but also ordnance of various kinds. While most of it are things she collected over the years from various sources, some are her personal creations, including a few prototypes that actually ended up becoming in use by Hazard Teams. And yes, she knows how to use all of them very well. However, because of her semi-nomadic nature prior to her current assignment, she admits that the size of her collection has become difficult to manage and has often only brought along the ones she really likes, which still isn’t a small amount, much to the wariness of the security department. While not much of a cook, she does fancy herself a replicator master, able to make the best versions of food available that she can coax out of most models. This particular skill grew out of a need for morale boosting when it was all she had available at a previous posting, and that’s when she fell in love with brownies. However, put her in front of a real kitchen and she won’t know what to do. But her skill with replicators pales in comparison to her true obsession; coffee. She is driven into distilling coffee-making into the ultimate art form, dreaming of the day when she finally manages to make the perfect cup of coffee… and a machine that can precisely recreate it, every single time. Real coffee. None of that replicated crap. |
