Brief Bio: Cassie has spent the majority of her life hiding, not because of some traumatic event or anything but because of her inherent soft-spoken and timid nature. Her father often joked that her birth had taken so long because she was too frightened to come out. Cassie's father is her world, as her mother died from an aggressive brain tumor. The death of his wife hit Cassie's father hard and because of that moment, his resolve as a caretaker became a bit weak. He often blames himself for Cassie's unwillingness to let the world into her life because he kept her close as a child and allowed her to stay home whenever anxiety over school came up. It got to the point where he pulled her out entirely and used a combination of home tutors and computer programs to teach her.

When Cassie's powers manifested she tried to keep them under control and to herself. Usually, she told her father everything but she knew if he found out she had powers he would push her to attend the academy. However, her attempts to hide her powers backfired, as her anxious emotions caused vines to nearly encase her house. Her intention was to keep herself under wraps--not her entire house. Needless to say, her father didn't need to push her to do anything because she was whisked away to the academy.
