Background

Born to a family of scholars in a small mountain town, Cassandra's life changed when a dragon attack destroyed her home at age 16. Instead of seeking revenge, her response was to understand these creatures. She apprenticed under an aging dragonslayer who taught her the physical skills, while she developed her own research-based approach to hunting.

The discovery of the Dragon Slayer sword in ancient ruins marked a turning point in her career. The massive weapon, which many couldn't even lift, seemed to respond to her touch. She spent years mastering its use while traveling the realm, studying dragons and developing her unique combat style.
