Skills/Hobbies=

• Master Combatant: Cassandra was taught several fighting styles and how to use all conventional weapons, including firearms. She chooses non-lethal attacks, like hitting pressure points or stealth takedowns.
• Stealth: Cassandra is a master of stealth, often looking like she appeared out of nowhere. Her steps can be completely silent. Able to pick locks and enter places unseen.
• Detective Skills: Thanks to working with the Batfamily, Cassandra has slowly improved her detective work.
• Ballet/dancing: Cassandra likes dancing in general, like ballet or dancing to energetic music.
• Body reading: Cassandra can read body language so well, she practically feels that person's emotions. Being able to predict movements so well is what allows her to dodge bullets, read people like an open book, and is one of the reason she's one of the greatest fighters in the world. If someone is moving erratic enough, Cassandra's ability to read their movements becomes a lot less effective. Sensory overload, like a flashbang, can overwhelm her ability to read movement.

Habits/Quirks=

• Above average appetite: Has been seen ordering tons of food, when given the chance. Eats so much to fuel all her heroic actions
• Influenced Mannerisms: Because of her observant nature, she occasionally copies the mannerisms of others in an attempt to fit in, if she's feeling uncomfortable.
• Bullet Dodging: Thanks to being able to predict and read movements, Cassandra can dodge bullets. In reality, she can see their finger moving to the trigger, so she moves to dodge before they even fire the gun.
• Long showers/baths: Views showers as meditative and often takes long showers or bubble baths.
• Expert lip reader: Thanks to her skill with body language, she can read lips.
• Minimalist: Her apartment is simple with few decorations, though she has a few plants she takes care of.

Likes= Assam tea, almond milk tea, chocolate ice cream, protecting the innocent, sparring and combat training, loyalty, improving combat and detective skills, fresh produce, celery with ranch and grapes, fast food, spending time with friends, bubble baths, ballet, dancing, drawing.

Dislikes= Passivity, failure, being held back, killing, pointless small talk, pointless violence.

Backstory= Cassandra was raised in isolation by David Cain, trained to be the ultimate killer. David didn't teach Cassandra to speak, and instead only taught her to fight, to the point she could read body language like a first language. After he had her take a life for the first time, Cassandra was so traumatized she fled from David, vowing to never kill again. Eventually she ended up in Gotham City, where she became Batgirl and earned her place in the Bat-family as one of Gotham's greatest heroes.

Other= She is one of the best martial artist/hand-to-hand fighters in the world. Cassandra has dyslexia because of how she was raised. Her parents are the assassins David Cain and Lady Shiva. Despite being the world's greatest fighter, Cassandra is completely human despite how deadly she is, and has no superpowers.
