Blood Status: Halfblood
Sexual Alignment: Heterosexual
Wand type: alder, dragon heartstring, 10 inches
Hair colour and style: It started as black/really dark brown, but as he aged, it started taking on a lighter quality, and now it’s more of a dark brown than anything, although it does depend on the light; it can, in some instances, appear a nice auburn brown. Sometimes - if he can be bothered - he styles it with a little wax, but mostly, he leaves it disheveled and messy.
Eye colour: Light blue
Height: 5 foot, currently, but he'll grow to about 5 foot 10.
Body type: Relatively fit, but not like his siblings; he’s average.
Dress sense: Honestly just whatever he finds first in his closet.

Scars: A few here and there from rough playing, but nothing serious.
Piercings: N/A
Likes: (3 minimum)
- Being appreciated
- Quidditch
- Individuality
- Sweets (as any child would)
- Being given gifts/presents (duh)
- Potions. ... The process of making potions, because it’s easy enough to follow the instructions, though sometimes it can feel a little limiting. ... Experimenting with potions.
- Telling stories
- Asking questions/finding out new things
- Sherlock Holmes
Dislikes: (3 minimum)
- Being the youngest in the family, because he feels left out, sometimes
- His parents constantly trying to force their thoughts onto him (and his siblings), because he likes the idea of being original
- Following all the rules so strictly, because he feels like people should be allowed fun
- Not knowing (anything, really!)
- Being treated as a young child
- Children who are spoilt (mostly because he’s jealous, though he doesn’t realise this is the cause of his dislike)
- Vegetables
- Being limited/defined by others
- Being underestimated (which he feels he often is)
Strengths: (3 minimum)
- He has quite the knack for finding out the truth and getting to the bottom of things
- Asking the right questions; in class, he sees the point of views that most people don’t
- Telling stories; he has a natural talent for recounting tales (true ones) that captures the attention of people
- He has a tendency of being rather observant, and seeing things most people miss
- Quidditch, although it runs in his blood
- Getting the facts quickly, like when reading a book
- Making friends
Weaknesses: (3 minimum)
- ...potions (he’s not good at any of his ‘experiments’)
- Watching people getting spoilt
- His identity; he doesn’t know what it is
- Sweets
- A good mystery
- A good book
- He doesn’t really think the whole heroism thing is for him
Positive traits: (3 minimum)
- Helpful; he tends to enjoy helping people
- Kind
- Considerate (to people in general)
- Generous (with his friends)
- When faced with a problem or something he doesn’t know, he will work hard to no end until he figures it out; in that sense, he’s stubborn in a good way.
- Strong sense of justice, but in the means that he thinks everyone should be able to know everything; he doesn’t believe in secrecy
Negative traits: (3 minimum)
- Can be somewhat insecure at times
- Impulsive
- Can seem overbearing, especially when trying to figure out something
- As mentioned above, he is somewhat stubborn, but this can also be bad as he doesn’t know when to let things go (this can double as something positive, as he’s not easily frightened away from finding out the truth)
- Jealous of others that receive more than him
Nico is the youngest of the Cassan family, so when he was born, he was already born into a family with five older siblings. However, the Cassan parents were never one keen on the whole ‘spoiling’ business, so Nico never grew up spoilt, something that has taken the opposite effect on him than it would on some others; Nico feels left out, as though he’s not special enough or well-loved because of this. Since he is lucky number 5, he sometimes feels like his siblings leave him out of things, as they have already developed friendships among themselves before he was born.
Nevertheless, he grew up spirited, doing his best not to let it get to him. Loving the outdoors, he often was found outside, either running around with a sibling or reading under a tree. He grew up mostly in books, although he didn’t have a lack of social interaction, and so while he loves a good story, he is completely capable of having conversations; he is an ambivert, and so he is good with both alone time, and people.
When he was sent to Hogwarts, he was rather ticked to be, once again, under the shadow of his siblings, but decided to use the opportunity to make a name for himself. During sorting, he was considered briefly for Hufflepuff, but in the end, the hat had muttered something about a will for the truth and sorted him into Gryffindor.

The Cassan family are descendants of Norman warriors who moved to Ireland many centuries ago. They are of Germanic and Italian origin, and are known for their bravery and loyalty to their friends. Today, Cassan wizards and witches protect others by working in mostly law enforcement (such as law, Auror work, etc). Michael Cassan also owns a few pubs both in the muggle and wizarding world, as he was taught business and trade skills by Helena Sozzini's parents.
The Sozzinis are a pureblood noble family from Tuscany. Though the founding family are known for working as bankers, jurists and humanist scholars, there were quite a few merchants who were savvy about economics and trade. These merchants would be the ancestors of Helena Sozzini, the head chef of Sant'Angelo (a Cassan-Sozzini restaurant property in Dundalk). |
