Merill

Born in the shadows, Cassandra learned how to fend for herself and excelled in combat. She is recognized as a skilled warrior and soon rose to the position of the personal guard where she protects Thistledown; the young leader of the clan, she takes pride in her work as guard. Her mother disapproves of her career choice, but her father is proud and often encourages his daughter. She talks to her grandfather often, after all he is the reason for her love of combat and her strict honor code. He is by far her closest friend and advisor. Cassandra is straightforward and not one for beating around bushes; after all that's her father's job. She has mixed feelings about her mother's other consort Lucifer. She believes in honesty, loyalty, and protecting her family and clan.

Cassandra has very good friends one being Mano the headstrong male who follows his own rules. They often but heads and challenge each other. They may disagree, but they respect each other and enjoy each other's company. Garnet is one of her closest friends and grew closer in their hatchling days learning combat and tactics. They spend time sparing each other and hanging out in the market place. She doesn’t throw around the word hate, but she hates Lilith; her mother’s other daughter. Cassandra believes lilith will destroy the clan if she doesn’t dial back her ambitions and isn’t kept in check. However she is fine with her brother Ash on account of they share parentage.
