Early Life
"Ask about my parents again, and you'll lose that little snake in your mouth."

As a child, Cassandra's father was extremely abusive to her mother. He often came home drunk, and would beat both her and her mother. One day, when Cassandra was eight, her father had smacked her mother for talking back to him. When Cassandra stepped up to defend her broken mother, her father held her up in a choke hold, and slammed her into the wall. Cassandra's mother stabbed the man seven times in the back, killing him. Because of this, child services took Cassandra away from her mother, to live with foster parents. After running away multiple times in search of her mother, Cassandra's foster parents eventually stopped looking for her, leaving Cassandra on her own to fend for herself.

On the streets, she was able to survive and defend herself by the age of fourteen. She became somewhat of an urchin, witnessing things that slowly scraped off the fragments left of her sanity. One day, three boys walked by, seeing her carrying a wallet. They attacked her, trying to snag the money. Cassandra thrashed about, throwing them off of her, until she was able to grab a knife she hid under her shirt. After stabbing two of the boys, she pounced on the third, who had began running after seeing the weapon. Police later arrested her, catching her in the middle of carving figures into the bodies as if they were wood scratchings. She was sent to Liam-Breyer's Facility for the Mentally Insane.
