The Wild Beast
-Appearance-
Cassius maintains a devastatingly handsome, rugged look to him. His skin is a dark mocha brown, pulled over taught, sinewy muscle, tanned by the Arabian desert sun. He has a jawline built for cutting granite, adorned with a short, sculpted beard. He has more of a narrow face, with a straight nose and full, beautiful lips that hide a wall of white teeth, as the stoic man rarely smiles. His hair is thick, a dark sable-brown, shorter on one side with most of his tresses thrown to the other. He has thick, long lashes, framing his icy, arctic blue eyes. Cass stands at about 6’1, with broad shoulders and a sculpted, well muscled body. Yes, he appears to be the epitome of masculinity. He has a deep, sultry voice but that laugh- oh that laugh will make one fall in love.
Cassius has long fingers, prominent tendons, collarbones, wrists and v lines, giving him a strong, powerful appearance- rightly so. A bit of hair is dusted over his toned forearms, not very much though, he is a rugged looking man but maintains a clean appearance besides his messy sable locks of hair.
-Persona-
Cassius is rather standoffish to say the least, hesitant in the way he moves and reluctant in his speech. He isn't one to jump into conversation immediately at all, however a million thoughts are constantly racing through his mind. He's very keen, bright, and even though he hasn't experienced must outside of the dark world of Baal worship. he is very intelligent. Cass is often wary of new things, similar to a feline, since most foreign experiences and new things prove to be dangerous to him- but that's just his opinion. He has a rather cold exterior, stoic and statuesque, with eyes that could bore down into anyone's soul. However, his gruff appearance hides a colorful array of thought and creativity, his mind a paradiso of beauty. Somewhere hidden under those layers is a kind, loving heart- Cassius just doesn't know how to show it, since people tend to avoid him and he tends to avoid them. Don't be surprised if at first the Arab pushes you away, keep persistent with this one and you may make a friend for life.

-Origin Story-
Baal, the Mesopotamian Fertility God, feared and highly worshipped
by his people, the epitome of false worship to the early Christians. When Baal
worship was wiped out, it died for centuries, or so Christians thought. Smaller
cults resided in the Middle East, where they waited for Baal’s instruction to
rebuild their religion and empire, as well as take revenge on God. Baal said it
was time, and so the plan to enact his will began. Baal wanted a servant, a
single patron to carry out his wishes for the world. The Cult of Baal took nine
Arabian infants back to the Ruins of Babylon, the once capital of Baal Worship,
as child sacrifice was a main component of their rites. The children were
wrapped in the pelt of a freshly slaughtered African leopard, given many horns
of gazelle and the wings of two eagles. Together, the nine infants and animal
parts were burned in a half bull, half man shaped cauldron while a dark rite
was performed.
The Cult created the Wild Beast.
The cauldron combusted with the force of the Wild Beasts creation,
killing the entire cult. In the wake of destruction, a baby was left alone in
the ruins. A night later, a group of tourists arrived to see the fallen city
but found the infant abandoned. The tour guide had the baby boy put in an orphanage
back in Arabia, where he grew older with no name. By the time he was four, he
had been in five different orphanages. This is when the boy began to have
dreams. Dreams of fire. One night, the second and the third, he awoke to the poverty-stricken
orphanage burning. He was the only survivor. When he moved, he began to see the
Nine. Nine spirits of children whom he spoke to only, as he had a case of
selective mutism. He would play with them, eat with them, sleep with them. And
the dreams came again, the fires started, he was always a lone survivor and he
would be moved. This happened over and over again. This went on until he was
twelve.
By then, he had caught the attention of the entire Middle East. And
Al Kaida. The extremists labeled him a Devil child, a demon, spawn from hell.
The mute boy was kidnapped and to be publicly executed. This was the fate of
the nameless boy. But a family had come to Arabia. They came from Spain, but
the father, Hammad, was of Arabic descent and his wife, Marianna, struggled to
get pregnant again and they wanted another child. As free people, they knew
they had to help the boy. They offered Al Kaida thousands to spare him in
secret and then adopted him. Hammad and Marianna returned to Spain with the boy
and their daughter, Khadijah.
They named him Cassius.
They raised him, loved him, he even began to speak. He went to
school and learned to speak English, Spanish and Arabic. The dreams even stopped.
However, he noticed as he aged, the Nine stayed children. The spirits became
angry, saying they died so that Cassius may live. The only way to repay the
debt was for him to commit suicide. He refused and they haunted him for months.
Eventually, they disappeared but the dreams came back.
The second they did, Cassius knew he had to protect his newfound
family. He took the Nine’s offer and made an attempt on his life so that his
family would be safe. He was found by Khadijah, hanging from the ceiling and promptly
rushed to the hospital. They managed to save his life and he returned home. The
last dream came and the house burned down, killing Hammad, Marianna and
Khadijah. At sixteen, Cassius was left homeless, and he knew he had to get far
away from society to protect all who neared him. He knew he had to discover
what he truly was and try to stop himself before the Beast inside awakened.
This took him all across Europe, and he would eventually land in Sweden,
Where he would find
one fateful dawn…

-Pyrophobia-
There is no fear in Cassius' world like fire. Fire is the enemy, fire is pain, fire is poison, fire is everything bad in the universe personified as flames that lick and tease the sky. It is almost sickening to see this masculine, strong figure reduced to a petrified, screaming mess at the sight of a lit match.

Cassius' schizophrenia is rather minor, however he is paranoid, believing someone is after him, sometimes hearing voices or believing there is something watching. It could be worse, but who knows? Maybe this will present an issue for the man later?

-Forms-
-Nine Headed Leopard-
A disturbing yet powerful looking demon, with the body of a massive leopard, with nine ravenous, blood thirsty heads. Each head possesses the horns of a gazelle, sharp and can pierce through flesh. This form also possesses six eagle wings, all that allow him to fly. Cassius is still learning to control this form.
-Leopard Form-
Yes, he can be a nine headed beast but he can also become a lithe, beautiful creature. This leopard is strong, he emits power, his muscles ripple beneath his dappled pelt as he walks. His fur is a golden tawny, adorned with black spots and a white chest, bespeckled with even more black. His eyes are a vibrant, sultry and alluring amber that could enchant or chill one to the bone.
-“Beast”-
Ah, one of the alter egos he possesses, which is actually powerful enough to morph his appearance. He has no mouth, but if one were to hear his voice they would go insane. Unlike Cassius, Beast is compelled by fire and is a pyromaniac, and he appears to have leprosy. Beast also has leopard paws and gazelle horns, and he burns in water. If you ever are unlucky enough to meet Beast, there's one rule: Run.

Jorah Calder
A curiosity, that's for sure. Cassius can't remember the last time he cared about someone, but he's enjoying this. Jorah is just as intrigued by him and he is of the Neck, but both seem to not have much of a grasp on the world around them. Jorah is introducing him to many new things...such as kissing, and so far, Cassius gets this warm feeling in his chest every time he see's the sprite...
Kimberly June
The two met in Sanctum Cafe, and that's where it all started. They both figured out that each of them had no fucking clue what they were or why things were changing for them both- and now they are an unstoppable duo, researching and delving deep into libraries and each others minds trying to help each other figure this whole thing out! Kimberly is basically his pretty study buddy.
Kaine Khvadi
Cassius stumbled upon the lonesome werewolf's campsite and was absolutely triggered by the fire pit...so far, that's all. Who know's where their story might take them?

~Muse~
Cassius is a dear creation of mine, catering to the darker yet confused side of my thoughts. The Wild Beast was something I learned about as a child, since I was raised around a branch of Christianity. I always found the creature very interesting, however never quite understood why the Wild Beast had been an omen in the Bible. A few months before I created Cassius, I had the muse for this creature after being forced to go back to church with my mother, and reading a scripture about the Beast, specifically in Revelation.
Soon after, I wanted to write this character. This lead to extensive research of Babylonians and Baal worship, many Mesopotamian cultural aspects. At first, I struggled with the idea to form it's own uniqueness and originality while using what little information I could find on the Wild Beast in the Bible, but I put my own spin on Cassius' story, following the lore of course.
I couldn't find a male face claim of Middle Eastern decent, so Cassius was about to be female, until a fellow writer on Wrealms showed me Toni Mahfud. The model perfectly embodied how I envisioned Cassius to a T. I am always trying to develop this character, and over the few months I've had him, I've fallen in love with Mr. Nazari himself.
Love you, Cass.
