APPEARANCE:
Standing taller than many, Kassius maintains an average figure. He sports a militaristic high and tight, with a length of dark brown hair atop his scalp.
DISPOSITION:
Kassius is serious, calculating, and plans far for the future. He rarely shows emotion, giving a cold impression to others. His manner of speaking tends to be blunt and insulting, his comments are frequently coarse and he is not above provoking or belittling those who oppose or irritate him. All of this makes him unsettling to a great many people. Despite all this, he places great trust in his subordinates and peers. Kassius' obedience is strictly limited to individuals he respects, and while he will fall in line when required, he has no problem showing open disdain for authority from anyone outside of his circle. Though he despises it, he has a knack for politics and despite having never been involved in major conflicts, he's been praised as a efficient combat strategist. While Kassius is largely taciturn, he is an eloquent speaker, able to sway a great many people. He intentionally speaks quietly, thus forcing those who do listen to do so intently; when Kassius speaks, silence often descends.
BIOGRAPHY:
Kassius is a firstborn and only child, born to wealthy Mandalorian parents on Coruscant. As a boy, he became deeply interested in his father's work, fascinated by the technicalities and intricacies of galactic law. His father served the Mandalorian government as an undersecretary handling commerce and trade between Mandalore and Coruscant. When the One Sith took power in Coruscant, his father was unable to evacuate the Senate building in time and was killed. His mother, a merchant, was trampled in the pandemonium. Alone and left to fend for himself, Kassius gather his precious belongings and bought his way back to Mandalore. When he became of age, he joined the Mandalorian military. There, he met a man called [member="Gael bar Ammon"], a senior soldier in the Mandalorian ranks. This man would become the ultimate mentor to Kassius, becoming his father in every way but name. After several years of service, Kassius retired active service and is now a member of the reserve component. Now with a practical skillset and no full time purpose, Kassius dons his Mandalorian armor and sets course to Coruscant to find work - legally, even if bounty hunting is a gray area. However, he still stands ready to come to Mandalore's side should she call.
