Cassiopeia "Cassy" Black-Granger is the daughter of Imperials Greg and Kate Black-Granger. Born during the reign of Vodo Bonias, she followed her parents' careers and quickly developed a personality that is a mixture of both. As a young child, her innocence in regards to the galaxy were encouraged until she was old enough to establish her on views on the galaxy. These views would become Imperialistic, leading to her joining the Sub-Adult Group within both the New Imperial Order and the Galactic Empire.

Biography

Childhood

Shortly after her parents' marriage, Cassy was conceived amongst a quiet and peaceful time within the galaxy. Her early years were spent on Coruscant, as her mother cared for her whilst her father worked on the re-branching of the Imperial Secret Police. She was joined by her brother James when she began walking, much to the dismay of her parents who had to juggle between the adventurous toddler and her newborn brother.

Just before her fourth birthday, the family moved to Csilla as her father accepted a job offer for the Chiss Ascendancy to lead their medical corporation. The change of scenery didn't affect her much, other than developing a fondness for cold weather during the long winters that she'd experienced during the build-up to the collapse of the Chiss Ascendancy. With her education close to beginning during the collapse, Kate taught her from home until the family moved to Greg's homeworld of Kathol.

Cassy displayed a tender open-mindedness as a child and rarely refused to try something new. Although this would dissolve slightly with age, it'd be replaced by a bravery that stepped on the borders of foolishness. She grew close to both parents as they spent long amounts of time at home, due to a lack of work and their desires to raise their children personally. With her mother, Kate, the relationship between the two was relaxed although Kate was usually tasked as the disciplinarian. Her relationship with her father, Greg, was similar if not more adventurous.

Whilst both parents considered their children as young adults and not children, Greg would often extend the boundaries of what children are allowed to do. Most times that she hurt herself was with her father, the two of them laughing as Greg encouraged her curiosity with the world. One such curiosity resulted in a broken arm and broken ribs, as her father willingly allowed her to pilot the family speeder during a trip in the countryside. The speeder crashed, causing the family to have to buy a new one, and both herself and her father were 'grounded' for two months by Kate. It didn't stop Cassy from trying new things, even if they weren't meant to be done at the time.

Cassy remained on Kathol until she was eight, when her parents joined the New Imperial Order and moved to its capital world of Kothlis. Adapting to the new school, scenery and culture of the Imperial planet, Cassy continued her education. At the age of 11; she asked her parents to join the local Sub-Adult Group. Greg and Kate agreed, secretly thankful that Cassy had proposed the idea on her own, as it was expected due to their careers that their children would eventually become a part of an SA Group. As Cassy grew older, she gradually became more involved with the Group and devoted more time to the variety of duties that SA Members undergo. Her love for flying developed during her time in the SA Group.

Her parents also included Cassy in several trips during her teen years, keen to show their daughter the galaxy. With her father, she'd often watch the New Imperial Army training exercises or attend formal occasions, several of which allowed her to personally met and talk to members of the Imperial High Command. Hardly shy, she spent on such occasion talking galactic politics and ways on which to improve the SA Group with Thomas Cherokee, the Executor for the New Order, much to the amusement of Imperial High Command and her father.

With her mother, she visited several planets controlled by the New Order and explored the different cultures that were in the Bothan Sector. During one of these visits, a recently discovered and colonized planet experienced a revolt. Despite seeing intense fighting and death, her activities in the SA Group meant that she was able to maintain her sense of humor, continuously making sarcastic comments throughout the ordeal until the New Order arrived.

She returned to her homeplanet of Coruscant as the New Imperial Order and Galactic Empire merged when she was sixteen. Despite the often erratic nature of seeing and living with her parents - when Greg and Kate were busy in their careers - Cassy was still happy as she was given more independence over what she was allowed to do. Her SA Group activities continued as the Galactic Empire offered many more varieties, including spending two weeks onboard an Imperial Star Destroyer and participating as a fleet crewman would.

Personality and Traits

"The SA-Group officer, you know, the jackass that Dad kicked out of the Light Company? Well, he's making us tag along with members of COMPNOR so we can get 'valuable experience of what you'd do after the academy'."

— Cassy to her uncle William Black-Granger

Cassy is an open-minded, independent individual who has a tendency to speak or act first without thinking of the consequences. She'll often look at the funny side of things, preferring to crack a joke than be serious. Dry-witted, she takes after her father whilst still having her mother's sarcasm. Like her mother, she has a curiosity to try new things and isn't frightened to experience pain during it.

Following her parents and training with the Sub-Adult Group, her political view is Imperialistic yet her open-mindedness nudges her towards the "New Imperial" spectrum of the scale. She personally believes that the galaxy needs to be controlled by a central group in order to maintain efficiency and law, as she's seen with the New Order and the Empire.
