Name: Cassandra Fox
Gender: Female
Age: 34
Occupation/Status: Scientist. Originally hired as head scientist on the island, but when that blew up she became head of special projects at the laboratory. This means that she will often go off to meetings out of the country. Many seminars and has a close contact with their other labs around the world. When she’s in the laboratory she has a mixture of jobs. She is one of the main scientists in inject new experiments and also spends some time disposing experiments that are no longer of use to them, or a danger to them.
Appearance and Build: Cassandra has straight black hair that falls just below her shoulders. Fortunately it’s not the sort of hair to get into her eyes often. Her eyes are a cold, dark blue in colour and when you look into them it feels like the room has dropped in temperature. There is no warm hidden in her eyes. Her skin is fairly pale, like most of the scientists. But unlike most of them every now and then she’ll come into the laboratory with a tan, having been sent to some warm country for a meeting of sorts.
Cassandra doesn’t do the typical white lab coat and black shirt/trousers and shoes. She can always be seen wearing a green t-shirt and a brown leather jacket. Wears slim looking black trousers and tan high-heeled shoes, that make a trademark *click, click, click* on the floors of the lab, alerting anyone around to her presence.
Personality: Cassandra is not nice person, to say the very least. She doesn’t seem to have any morels or any pity. Her heart never seems to melt and she will just get on with the job she is paid to do. She enjoys her job, a lot. Isn’t so keen on the animal side of things though, she is an expert in exotic plants, not dogs and cats. She especially hates dogs, they droll too much, and she hates their persona. She hates the fact that they have been bred to take orders, it irritates her greatly. Not because she thinks they should have rights or anything, she just hates how people love these creatures when they are highly pathetic and weak minded.
Cassandra is gun happy, more so now then ever. She loves her pistol and carries it with her everywhere. She also holds a dart gun and another personal item of hers is her jeep that she bought in Africa. She hasn’t had much of a chance to use it since coming to L.A., but she hopes to use it more soon.
Some people may think that if you get down deep to know the real Cassandra, that there is a nice person inside of her and that her hatred for the experiments comes from some sort of event in her past. How wrong they would be. Cassandra, as said below, had a completely happy past and she is pretty heartless no matter how far down you dig. Yes, if you take the time to get to know her (and don’t die in the process) she can soften, but she will never melt completely.
History/Past: Cassandra had no tragic past to speak of. She was raised by both of her parents, they never divorced and were perfectly happy together. She was brought up to obey the rules, not harshly mind you, she was allowed out of the lines occasionally. She was never hit or hurt too badly. She broke her arm when she was 14, but that was about it. And that was her fault, she fell off her bike.
She wasn’t rich, but wasn’t poor. Her father worked as a manager at a good foods company and her mother was a house wife with a part time job at a garden centre when Cassandra was old enough to be left alone at home. Cassandra’s mother was mad about plants and has passed that down to Cassandra. Although her mum was into hydrangeas, poppies, roses, those sorts of plants, Cassandra was into cacti, vinus fly traps and pitcher plants.
Soon she gained an interest in more exotic plants, poisonous plants and so on. And then she was hired by the USASI, she was hired a few years before the experiments were moved to the island. She was ordered to set things up on the island, build the lab they had there and go through the island head to toe and know every inch of it, making sure they had what they needed to survive and plenty of dangers to keep them on their toes.
