CHARACTER INFO
Character name: Cassandra Rhodes…but she hasn't used the name in years and the name is unknown to anyone but her adoptive Father.
Nicknames: Kali (From the Hindu Goddess of Death and Chaos), Kal, Bitch Monster of Death
Character age: 26
Birthdate: 05/31/81
Gender: Female
Lycan Species: Leopard
Level: Minor Alpha
Strengths: As a mid level alpha leopard Kali has just started to learn how to control her changes to include only one part of her body. She has all of the strengths typical to a shapeshifter with the added bonus of military and martial arts training.
WeaknessesLike all other shifters Kali is allergic to silver and also can be weakened by too many shifts in a short period of time. Her stand offish behaviour often leads to her being excluded by others. This often cruel attitude is however a way for her to cover her emotional issues. She's also had some issues in dealing with large groups and social activty.
Weapons carried on person: Kali perfers to use tooth and claw whenever she can but has a collection of hand guns and knives that she is most proficiant with-including the Walther PPK and butterfly knives made of silver.
Tell me about yourself
Hair colour/style: Naturally a light brown but often dyed other colours…currently with blonde highlights
Eye colour: Hazel
Portrayal: Kelly Clarkson
Picture:
Physical description: Kali is of average height with a lean hard body curtsey of her active lifestyle. She often forgets to cut her hair perfering to just pull it out of her way and generally dresses in denim and leather as a rule. She has several tattoos including a mural of the Goddess Kali on her back and some prayers in Hindi on her arms her nose is also peirced. She speaks with a light South African accent.
In leopard form she's a sleek spotted cat with green eyes.
Likes: Guns, knives, playing pool, killing bad guys
Dislikes: pink, flowers, dates, men
Fears: men, loosing control of herself and her life, being thought of as weak
Nervous habits: nail biting and a habit of fidgeting with whatever is at hand.
Personality description: Outwardly Kali is a hard as nails former mercenary and bounty hunter-tough, bold, bitter…however she is also a fairly sensitive person who has walled herself off in an effort to deal with things that have happened to her during her lifetime including time as a child solider. It's very rare for someone to see the softer side of this self proclaimed bitch but those that do have her unwavering loyalty. That's probably the one thing Kali herself is proud of-that she is often determined to the extreme in protecting her friends and assignments.
Take me home to meet mom and dad:
Parents: Sara and Geoffrey Rhodes
Adopted Father: Johannes Van Der Kirk
Siblings: Miles, Tawny Rhodes
Children: none
History: Born in the borderlands of modern day Zimbabwe and South Africa Kali was christened Cassandra by her parents as the middle of their three children. The Rhodes family farm was an isolated affair and the family was self contained. However when 'Cassandra' was 8 years old that peace was shattered when the farm was attacked by a band of bush raiders. Young Cassandra watched as her parents where beheaded and her siblings murdered at which point she was raped and left for dead.
It was fortunate or unfortunate that she lived and when trying to walk through the bush to the nearest town she was found by were-leopard and mercenary Johannes Van Der Kirk. Perhaps he saw something he liked in the small, battered girls utter stubbornness and unwillingness to die but the old hand took Cassandra into his home to try and save her life. Nearly comatose from her wounds and hunger Johannes was forced to partially shift himself and to scratch her lightly and often in hopes lycanthropy would save her.
His plan worked and when the child awoke Johannes renamed her Kali and officially took her in as his ward. He enrolled her in a private military school run by another were-leopard mercenary and set out supplementing his ward’s tactical education in anyway he could-martial arts, military history and weapons training. When Kali was ready Johannes began to take her along on easy jobs or the occasional hunt in the bush to hone her instincts and skills. Eventually Kali made her own name in the business as a part of an all lycanthrope squad run by Johannes becoming known for her cold, bitchy demeanor as well as her thoroughness and competence on the job.
As a leopard she was only exposed to Johannes small Pard that was located in Johannesburg South Africa and got no favours in the Pard for being his ward. In fact as a Nimir-Raj he was probably tougher on Kali than any other cat as he hoped she would one day take over.
Tired of the instability of mercenary work in Africa and abroad Kali has made her way to Miami looking to take up a bodyguard or enforcer position in the local Pard. She’s also willing to be hired out to the rich and famous as a flashy, beautiful and deadly bodyguard.
Writing Sample: Lowering her large sunglasses Kali glanced over the rims at the flight attendant who had touched her shoulder to wake her. It was not a pleasant look as Kali’s brown eyes flashed leopard green as she struggled to control her anger and fear at being touched by a stranger, “Can I help you?” she forced her voice to be polite and to keep her beast in check.
The bottle blonde swallowed before speaking and Kali could smell the young woman’s fear, “Ummm…Sorry to wake you I really am. I’m trying to get through the aisle with the snack cart and your legs are in the way Miss.”
Twisting her head a fraction Kali looked behind the woman and spotted the cart in question supporting the woman’s claim. It calmed the beast in the young woman more than anything else could have. Kali pulled her long legs back into the tiny space afforded by her seat, “Sorry…I just don’t like to be touched. How far are we from Miami?”
“About twenty minutes before our approach,” the flight attendant relaxed, “Would you like anything to eat or drink?”
Pushing her sunglasses back up on her nose Kali shook her head resolutely, “No thanks…I don’t eat airline food.”
She didn’t wait for a response and switched on her lap top so that she could email her ‘Father’ about her safe arrival. Sure most of the dangerous situations Kali had been in since puberty had been Johannes’ own doing but he had worried when she had decided to relocate out of Africa and away from his watch. Of course that was part of why she'd left-Kali wanted to prove herself in a Pard away from Johannes' influence.
And the rest:
Anything else? Nope
