SO TAKE IT BACK ALL THE WORDS YOU SAID

distinguishing features: Nothing out of the ordinary, and he likes to keep it this way. Perhaps the only odd thing about Cassian is that he does not look like a mixed child (seeing as how Blaise and Daphne come from different ethnic backgrounds).

appearance overview: Cassian is clean cut and always looks good. He will never be seen wearing anything less than immaculate. He believes that image is everything. When he's not dress in his Hogwarts robes, Cassian usually wears a tight fitting t-shirt or a clean pressed button up shirt and jeans. His sneakers are always solid colored, and on special occasions he will wear an expensive suit and tie. The only jewelry Cassian wears is a silver bracelet that an old girlfriend gave to him. He also wears cologne every day, because he likes to smell good and wants to uphold the image of the pure blood wizard. The first thing that anyone notices about Cassian is how perfectly clean his wardrobe is. He presents himself in such a way that demands respect, and he looks somewhat mysterious at times. Cassian seems to be a respectable wizard, having no crazy tattoos, hair colors, or piercings. He prides himself in knowing that people view him in such a way.

there's a burning inside of my soul
WE ALL WANT MORE THAN JUST A SIMPLE LIFE

likes:

• Wizard's Chess: Cassian's been playing since he was five years old and he's practically mastered it. There's something about the brutality of the game that pleases him.
  
• Quidditch: Whether it's watching or playing, you could say Quidditch is somewhat of an obsession.
  
• Females: He's a sucker for a good looking girl, and he loves to look at them. He likes to think of himself as a good catch, so he can never resist a pretty girl.
  
• Food: Cassian loves to eat. He has a fast metabolism and burns it quickly because he's active, but he's got very broad tastes when it comes to food. Exotic is always the best.
  
• Clothing: He'll shop as much of a girl, practically collecting expensive clothing and brand names. His closet is huge.

dislikes:

• Animals: He hates them with a passion. They're dirty, disgusting, and barbaric. The fluffy ones are even worse.
  
• Muggles: Need this really be explained? Muggles are everything a pure blooded wizard is not.
  
• Fire: His room caught on fire when he was ten years old, playing with things he shouldn't have been and now it makes him completely nervous.
  
• Dirt: Cassian likes to look perfect. He can't stand dirt and grime, especially on him.
  
• Change: He doesn't want his life, the wizarding world, or anything else to change. Cassian gets comfortable where he is, and doesn't like things switching up.

strengths:

• Thinker: Cassian will think things through before making any sort of decision. He'll carefully weight each option and never rushes head first into a situation unless he has absolutely no choice but to do so.
  
• Calculating: He's a great planner and schemer, and often comes up with good ideas on how to go about doing things in order to achieve the results he desires.
  
• Observant: Since Cassian only says what needs to be said and nothing more, he notices little details that might otherwise by overlooked by people who talk way too much.
  
• Strength: Cassian possesses an odd amount of strength even for his body size. His strength keeps people from pushing him around and there isn't a whole lot he can't lift and/or retrieve. This also goes for mental strength. He doesn't allow himself to be bullied.
  
• Persuasive: He's pretty good at getting people to do what he wants and is willing to use any means to achieve this be it sexuality, bribery, or flattery.
  
• Independent: Cassian doesn't rely on others to survive. He never runs to his family when something goes wrong, and always tries to take care of his problems by himself.
  
• Calm: Cassian will rarely lose his temper, even if presented with a situation that makes him angry. When he does get angry, he doesn't raise his voice.

weaknesses:

• Serious: Cassian is too serious. He rarely will lighten up and allow himself to act like the teenager he is supposed to be. Because of his he can often be a mood killer.
  
• Nosy: He wants to know what's going on with everyone at all times. Cassian's prone to eavesdropping, spying, prying, and even sending other people to do the spying for him.
  
• Arrogant: Cassian's quite the arrogant one. He thinks that all the ladies love him, talks like he knows everything, and doesn't let people forget that he thinks highly of himself.
  
• Revengeful: When someone has wronged him, Cassian will rarely ever let it go. While he is calculating, he can often spend weeks coming up with the perfect way to get back at someone and spring it upon them when they least expect it.
  
• Narrow-Minded: He's pretty narrow minded when it comes to a lot of things thanks to his father, Blaise. Cassian disapproves of witches and wizards less than pure blood status, and definitely looks down on anyone who doesn't live by the acceptable standards of wizard society.
  
• Homophobic: Yep, Cassian is uncomfortable around and completely intolerant of anyone who isn't heterosexual. Especially homosexual males, they make him nervous even though he tries not to show it.

skills: Cassian knows some French, he's an amazing flier on the broom, and he can beat anyone's pants off in wizard's chess.

goals: Professional quidditch player. It's the only goal he really is adament about.

fears: Fire. It's the one thing that truly bothers him.

patronus: Male Lion.. because they're proud, arrogant, and think they own everything.

personality overview: Cassian thinks he's absolutely handsome. He was, in his mind, blessed with the good looks that been passed down from Zabini generations before him. He's very proud of who he is and where he comes from (even if Grandma Zabini has a shady past!). He takes a lot of pride in his blood status, and being a pure blood only serves to boost his arrogance and ego. There isn't anything that Cassian would change about himself if he were given the opportunity to do so, he likes to look at himself as a generally desirable person when it comes to company and physicality. Well, at least when it comes to the company that matters. The first thing that people notice about Cassian is that he's quite the serious person. He speaks only what needs to be said and while he doesn't come off as a complete jerk, he's not exactly friendly either. Most of the greetings that Cassian goes through are empty as if it were merely routine unless he is truly intrigued by someone. He often comes across as arrogant and a know it all, though none of that having to do with book smarts. Because of his efforts to keep himself looking immaculate, he also gives off the impression of possessing severe vanity at times. Cassian is not, by any means, a social butterfly. This is not to say that's socially inept, because he's far from it. The young wizard is simply very picky about who he calls a friend. Being brought up with that pure blood mindset, he was always taught that you can't just associate yourself with any witch or wizard for fear of tainting the family image.

history:
Cassian Zabini was born to Blaise and Daphne Zabini. His father Blaise was known to have been good friends with Draco Malfoy (who is actually Cassian's uncle) in their Hogwarts years, a proud Slytherin and pure blood wizard who married Daphne Greengrass, a pure blooded witch who attendeHogwarts as well. Cassian has a small immediate family, all who share the same views on pure blooded advocacy. And thus, from a very small age, Cassian was taught to live by such ways.

When he was ten years old, a fire started in Cassian's room that ended up swallowing half of Zabini manor in flames. Cassian and his parents lost a lot in the fire, and while Zabini manor was able to be repared, a part Cassian was not. Because of this incident, Cassian has become deathly afraid of fires and extremely cautious. He's also taken to watching over his belongings quite closely. Thankfully however, no one was injured in the fire.

Almost as soon as Cassian entered Hogwarts, he began to seek out like minded pure blooded wizards. He takes great care in not associating himself with muggle borns, whom his father has taught him to refer to as mudbloods. Since his second year, Cassian decided to wanted to become a magical lawyer. He's worked hard at this grades and while he isn't the best student, he always passes everything. He takes his schooling seriously, wanting to make his parents proud.

roleplay sample:

Rolling his eyes yet not saying a single word about the situation, Cassian sat down at his house table in the Great Hall. It was dinner time, and already three of his housemates had gotten into a petty squabble over who could finish their dinner first. It was stupid, and they'd asked Cassian who he thought would win. Cassian simply ignored all of them. Why would he sink as low as to bet over which student could stuff themselves to the point of vomiting before the others?

As the food appeared, Cassian helped himself and began minding his own business on the outside but silently listening to everyone around him. Sarah Mukka was rambling about how depressed she was that her boyfriend had broken up with her to his right. Jeff, Dracian, and Princess were busy stuffing their faces for their immature contest to his left. Michael was trying to talk to him from across the table but it took a moments for Cassian to realize this.

"I really don't care who wins, Michael." Cassian spoke shortly and bluntly. "They're all going to get sick and all I know is that if I get vomited on, I'm going to be pretty angry." The teenager sighed softly, as if he were surrounded by idiots. How did he get himself into this situation? He should have sat at the end of the table but he didn't want to make himself seem pathetic. Perhaps he should have sat with Daisy when he begged her to.
