Cassie of Maldra
Cassie has long, wavy brown hair, blue eyes, and a nboble's stubborn chin. Now sixteen years old, she's a lady of Maldra; but she doesn't let that hold her back.
Cassie is handy with a sword, having trained with her brother and his friends from a young age. To avoid spoilers, you'll have to read until the end of book one to discover what other skills this passionate lady has!
