Cassandra Greenskeeper

Cassandra Greenskeeper was a young warlock of Acererak active during the Death Curse. She traveled with a group of adventurers to the island of Kalt Vali to investigate and attempt to stop whatever was causing the Death Curse. Cassandra also worked in secret to try and obtain the Ring of Winter for her patron, the evil lich Acererak.

History
"'I've decided to do the right thing. But I need you to do me a favor... I need you to trust me.'"Cassandra was the daughter of Sarah Silvane, a mage of the Circle of Vishap, and Scire Greenskeeper, a druid of the Deepwoods of Rhine. Growing up she underwent much abuse at the hands of her father. Cassandra claims this was from the pressure to make her as powerful, if not more so, as her Archmage grandmother, Syndra. She also claims to not be particularly good at the arcane arts, much to her parents annoyance.

She did not see her grandmother much until she was much older. Around the age of 14 Syndra took Cassandra from her home to live with her after she found her granddaughter covered in bruises. She lived with her grandmother where she continued her studies of arcane magic.

It is unknown exactly when, but at some point Cassandra became a warlock to the master of dungeons, the lich Acererak. This contract gave her many arcane powers, as well as access to many necromancy spells not traditionally available to practitioners of the arcane arts (i.e. Aura of Life and Spare the Dying). The terms of this deal are similarly unknown.

Shortly after being taken away, Cassandra's mother Sarah died during an expedition from the Circle of Vishap. Cassandra tried to reach out to her father, only to find he had vanished and had taken a powerful artifact with him, the Ring of Winter.

Cassandra claims she tried to pin down her father, following research and clues that lead to her believing him to be in Kalt Vali, attempting to destroy the ring. She used this to convince the adventurers her grandmother hired to take her with them into the jungle. She spent much of her time with them planning on how to take the ring, and learning more about the land.

She grew to know and befriend them: Ari Dara, Keshmet, Naktaliri, Savir Krosa, Sir Klaven, and Trail in the Woods. She conveyed great internal conflict to them and eventually found herself calling them her friends.

During the battle at Dungrunglung, Cassandra and Keshmet managed to entrap her father, now fully possessed by the inhabitant of the Ring of Winter, the ancient ice primordial Fa'kotra. Cassandra used her last moments after grabbing the ring to heal her friend who fell in battle before escaping through a dark and shadowy portal to places unknown.

Personality
Stubborn, Cassandra always believed she knew what was right. Often she would discuss things as if the entire weight of the world were on her shoulders. She took everything very personally, and found it hard to trust others.
