Name: Cassiopeia Mnemosyne Malfoy
Pronunciation: Cass-ee-oh-peh-ee-yah, Neh-maw-zeh-nee
Nickname: Cassi, Cas
Face Claim: Freya Mavor
Birthday/Age: November 21st 2006
Zodiac: Scorpio
Occupation: Student
Species: Human
Blood Status: Pure Blood
House: Ravenclaw
Biological Sex: Female
Gender and prefered pronounds: Female, her/she
Significant Other: Ew
Immediate family:
- Lucius Malfoy (Grandfather)

- Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy (Twin brother)
Physical Description:
- Signature Malfoy blonde
- blue/green eyes
- unusual freckles from her mother's side of the family
- 5'6'' (about her brother's height)
Personality: Reserved and conservative when she first starts at Hogwarts, she sticks to her brother like glue and tries to avoid pretty much everyone else. It isn't until she starts to adapt to using magic with her disability that she grows more and more confident, and her smile emerges. It is the struggle to cast spells without sound, the need to prove herself that she can live up to her family name, that makes her to timid in the beginning. She led a very sheltered life before Hogwarts, and being completely honest, her only true friend was her brother. It isn't until she breaks out of her shell that she realizes how freeing it is to meet people and make friends.
Sexuality: Undetermined/Open
Back story: Cassiopeia's very existence breaks the rules in the eyes of her elder family. As the first second born, and the first female born into the Malfoy bloodline, it was already enough for her brother to gain the favour of their grandfather; being born mute only helped his case in despising her. Throughout her life, she struggled with feeling like a tarnish on the family tree, leaving her with a lack of self confidence. But between her brother and parents' best if not perfect efforts she got by.
Likes: Whistling, reading, playing flute/any wind instrument. It gives her sound.
Dislikes: Lucius Malfoy, charms class, being put on the spot, being unable to communicate with people.
Strengths: Divinity, speed, agility, giving her brother piggy back rides, flying.
Weaknesses: Singing, self confidence.
Other: Mute as a result of a birth deformity where she was left without vocal cords. Draco taught her how to whistle.
Sample RP (4-5 Paragraphs, present tense, third person)
Cassi tries not to roll her eyes when her house prefect describes her as "a quiet girl," but in his defense, not a single person in Ravenclaw besides her brother figured out that she was a mute for the first week of school. House of the Intellectuals, sure. She thinks he caught his mistake because moments after his cheeks are aflame and he's looking down at her like he just kicked a baby. He braces himself for a scolding. Cassi only raises her eyebrows at him; really what else did he expect? After a while, her 'conversation' between the prefect and her charms professor gets boring, and she excuses herself back to her dormitory. Whether or not they understood her signing, she didn't know, and at that point, she hardly cared. Slinging her school bag over her shoulder, she readjusts her cape and scurries out into the hall.
The thing she hates and loves about the Ravenclaw Common room is that it is high up in the towers. The view and atmosphere is magnificent; the tight spiral staircase she has to climb to get up there it not. Regardless, she makes it up to the height of the tower, where she meets her next challenge; the Knocker.
"I am the beginning of every end, the end of every place. I am the beginning of eternity, and the end of time and space. What am I?" The Bronze Eagle asks.
Cassi pauses for a moment to think, looking around her to see if any housemate is approaching that might save her. Biting her lip, she heaves a silent sight and looks up at the Knocker. This hasn't worked all week, but it's worth giving a try. She raises her hand and signs. "I am E."
She holds her breath as she waits for the Knocker repeat the question, as it always does when it hears to reply. But to her surprise and immense relief, the Knocker responds. "Correct. Welcome, Madam Malfoy."
Smile blooming on her lips, Cassi signs a quick "Thank you," and hurries inside, barely catching the Knocker reply with a "You're welcome" behind her.
