CASSIUS

MALE - 21 - BISEXUAL - YLISSE - CAVALIER

FRIENDS

Every time I look at the sky after the rain

Cassius is like a chameleon, able to change his colors to better fit the person or people he's with. A social butterfly or lizard of sorts, he likes to flutter around a variety of circles and is never lazy with his friendly "good mornings" and "hellos." 

People find him easy to befriend and coupled with his seemingly bright demeanor, he has a wide circle of friends within the Halidom. However, many may find his cordiality fake and they very well may be right.

Friendly rivalries can occur from his love for the thrill of competition. He is also flirtatious or at least, can be mistaken for being a flirt. His charismatic smile and amiable behaviors can deceive people—whether he is doing this on purpose or not can be debated.

ENEMIES

I think of the past when I was only a crybaby

Nobles. Aristocrats. Aristocats. Cassius can't stand them. He can smell their wealth. While he may fake a friendship with them, deep down he wants to punch them in the sack of money.

His competitive and jealous nature creates a lot of rivals whether they be kindred spirits or kindred dicks and of course, the latter fits in this section. Rivalries can extend from Ylisse to members of other nations, making things interesting on the battlefield. 

Beat-em ups, close encounters with death, assassination attempts, bullying within the ranks and other stupid ways to get him pissed and angry are fine.

LOVES

I was frantically going after someone's back

Although he had a sweet romance with the farmer girl next door which abruptly ended after she condemned his odd infatuation with his pet potato, Cassius loves to love. Ideas of settling down haunt his thoughts here and then, although he is unsure whether that ideal future exists for him. 

NOTE: For romance, I don't like setting a pre-set partner for this character right off the bat. Organic development leading to a romance is something very much appreciated!

And saying "I wanna become stronger"

[Beatrice]

'EEEEY. So Beatrice is a noble aristocrat. I mean, she's a flippin' princess from the country that was, at least at one point, arguably the wealthiest in the continent. So he'll probably not like her. She's also aggressively friendly, though, so she wouldn't take that sitting down. She'll be travelling to Ylisse soon on a diplomatic mission!! So I just thought it might be kind of interesting if they met and bumped heads somehow, since her ~*~very existence~*~ would probably grind his gears.

[cassius]

So Beatrice is going to be a big pain in the butt for Cassius. He'll be enthralled to meet royalty. So happy. What a celebration. Hooray. So thrilled. Excite. Cassius is probably going to suffocate when he realizes that she's one of those overly-friendly types. Maybe shed a tear or two while he's busy clenching his teeth and trying to keep his lips from flapping out "niceties." Breathing the same air as her might freak him out, to be honest. He might be sent to go meet her when she arrives in the Halidom, to accompany her to her destination or maybe they could meet in the castle or where ever she needs to go. I can see them meeting up constantly throughout their existence here like a running gag. Every time he turns a corner, she's there... FUUUUUUUUUU----- But, they have the opportunity to befriend each other! Who knows, crazier things have happened.

[Cyrus]

rewriting this because proboards spazzed on me

So I think Cyrus and Cassius would make good friends/rivals. They've got pretty similar personalities, and being regular soldiers in the army and stuff could make them bond really easily. Cyrus is this attention hog, so expect him to try and show off around younger soldiers. He's also plenty competitive himself, maybe they could become sparring buddies. But anyway, I really want them to meet, even if it's for a short time while they have a competition to pick up girls or something idk.

[cassius]

COMPETITION COMPETITIONS COMPETITIONS.
EATING COMPETITIONS. PICK-UP COMPETITIONS. FIGHTING COMPETITIONS.

Cassius really does need a friend even though he is probably a friendless loser irl.  Cyrus can fulfill that definitely! A sparring partner or someone to chill out would be nice. The guy has a lot of frustrations and maybe Cyrus can hear him out here and there! He's also a family guy and Cyrus seems like he's part of that same breed!

[Drake]

I would like to maybe have a nice introduction with our characters, they come from too different backgrounds yet they could try and get along. Drake does not really have anyone to talk to so getting to know your character will maybe open him up. We can maybe start it off with them meeting each other in a tavern or inn type place and they start drinking into one passes out. Trust me Drake will not let cassius go home drunk, it's the grown up part of Drake. Once they become " F-R-I-E-N-D-S " *drake does have trust issues* but once your in his circle of trust you are there 5eva..!

[cassius]

Drake is gonna be called "old man" non-stop yo. Cassius knows nothing about magic or book smarts or studying or anything like that so maybe in the future there can be a situation where he needs to read a book (probably the first book in his life) for a test or something and Drake will have to deal with his idiocy. Maybe it'll result out of Cassius being curious about his magic or something, I'm not sure! Anyways, I can totally see them in a tavern somewhere. Is Cassius a heavyweight or a lightweight who knows? ~*~*~*~IT'S A MYSTERY~*~*~*~

[Oliver]

THE BROTHERS OF DESTRUCTION - Between their similar class choices, humble beginnings, and talents, I can see Cassius and Oliver having a lot to talk about with each other. Whether sparring partners or simply appreciating the almighty potato, the two have a lot of common ground and a multitude of potential threads in their future. I could see Oliver looking up to him as a sort of senior / older brother figure, which could also make the gullible kid a prime target for Cass' manipulations if that side of him chooses to awaken.

As the two become better, as both soldiers and possibly friends, who knows what roles they'll find? Maybe they'll end up being a two-man army, tearing through anything in their way with skill honed over hundreds of duels. Or maybe they'll find themselves on opposite sides of a battlefield, the practice duels they used to have suddenly becoming so much more real. Who knows what lies in their futures, as friends or as otherwise?

[Vaigali]

Hmmm... I think I shall dispatch Vaigali here to annoy Cassius and be a grumpy sourpuss because yes.

[cassius]

Oliver - HRNGH TO EVERYTHING YOU WROTE. Cassius really needs some "friends" because at the moment, most of the people he knows (aside from Esmer at least, at the moment) exist to torture his very existence. I'm looking at you Tsan'lo. The humble beginnings they share is something Cassius is for suuuuure gonna latch on to. I WANT THEM TO EVENTUALLY BE ON OPPOSITE SIDES OF THE BATTLEFIELD IS THAT OK? I LOVE THAT. SPARRING = LET'S DO THIS. 

Vaigali - oh god there is no hope there is no future cassius is gonna cry (please do I want them to meet and interact and then maybe cassius might just off himself by potato-asphyxiation)

[Vaigali]

There is never hope or a future. Vaigali will steal all of the girls and poison the potatoes since yes that's an advantage. One less Captain to deal with. And possibly poisoning the whole nobility. Added bonus.

I mean. Come let me steal the girls from you I am far prettier.

[cassius]

Vaigali - cassius will take the blow to destroy all nobles ok crucify him
also wow he will fking fight you let's go vaigali "im" hella more prettier
but cassius will steal his heart instead ok pretend to be friends until
crushing him under his feet >( let's go kid

[Vaigali]

Pffffft Vai already got his heart stolen by a cute little priest from beyond the sea but shhhhhh he's not realized that yet.

And no >:c I will win and I shall defeat you I shall stomp you with my flying pony and get all the girls while doing it.

[cassius]

He'll take that red-headed priest hostage ok.
For a grand ransom of three potatoes. Try and meet his demands. TRY.
Also wow, even Cassius' horse is gonna have a rivalry. This is srs.
