Name: Cassandra Sandsmark
Age: 28
Species: Goddess
Distinguishing Features: Blonde, blue eyes, gold wonder woman symbol on her uniform
Known Relatives: Helena Sandsmark, Zues, Hercules, Ares
Group Affiliations: None currently
F) In
A) In
S) Un
E) Am
R) Ex
I) Gd
P) Rm
Resources: Typical
Known powers and strengths:
* Superhuman Speed(Am): Like Wonder Woman, Cassie can move at supersonic speeds. She can move fast enough to not register in the normal peripheral range of humans and seemingly vanish and disappear at will. At this speed, her mind processes information at least on a subliminal level that she is aware of her surroundings. She is fast enough to deflect and catch bullets.
* Superhuman Reflexes(In) : Cassie is able to react to and deflect bullets with great comfort.
Body Armor: Mn protection vs. Physical and Energy
Flight: Am airspeed
Enhanced Senses: Wonder Woman's heightened senses are as below:
-Enhanced Hearing: Rm Hearing
-Telescopic Vision: Rm
Talents/Abilities: Leadership, Martial Arts A, C, Student
Equipment:
Golden Lasso: CL1000 material, able to entangle with Mn ability, when opponent is ensnared, Cassie may cause an Am Energy attack with contact on Lasso
It is also revealed later that she posesses the ability to send anyone she ensnares with the lasso wherever she might wish them to go.
Weaknesses:
Maternal Depowerment: Discouraged by previously shown arrogance in his children (Ares and Heracles), Zeus also blessed Cassie's mother with the ability to take away her powers for a short time via a simple touch. However, this may not be true now that she is no longer drawing her strength from Zeus.
History (after The Breaking):
Cassie had just gotten used to the idea that everything in her life was coming back together when it was ripped apart again. The Titans got word through Bruce and subsequently Tim about what was happening. Hell, Cassie could feel it in her very core. She was half made of godly magic and it was impossible not to feel herself called to that battle.
What stayed her hand though...was her mother. She and Connor agreed to split up, doing what they needed to do in order to save the vulnerable ones they loved. Cassie went into full protection mode of her mother and of the other people she could afford to protect.
But while all of this was going on, Cassie was struggling with her own internal demons. Her lasso was less responsive, more...dangerous. Much more apt to send people to horrific places than to others as she wished it too. She was quicker to anger, quicker to want to hurt rather than subdue. She felt...darker. This was only compounded when she showed up in Hawaii to meet the man she loved and he...never came home.
The battle inside of Cassie for the remnants of her soul waged on for nearly a decade, being pulled in half by her principles and those she fought for and continues to protect...and that dark, twisted magical half inside of her that attempts to bend her to the 'winning' side. She continued to serve as a becon of hope, still some manner of her former 'golden goddess' self while doing things she will never be proud to admit out loud when out of eyeshot of her witnesses.
She still struggles with fully embracing her goddess side, choosing to remain Wondergirl until such day that she can say she is no longer tempted to battle for the 'other' side.
