The Flashing Jedi Pt. I ~ Cassy picks up a lead on the location of her brother; Joran Novos. After learning that he is involved with the slave trade on Nar Shadaa; she heads there to investigate, only to be captured by her brothers Slavers in turn. She is freed by the infamous Kel Dor terrorist, Tez Hakur. She manages to free most of the slaves; but Tez has other plans for the rich slave buyers; and slavers, including Cassandra's brother, who once again manages to escape without the two of them crossing paths.

Hound of Coruscant ~ Cassy is called upon by Detective, Aldric Cibre to assist him tracking down what appears to be a rather large ravenous beast on the loose in the darker areas of Coruscant, leaving a trail of murder and ravaged foods in it's wake. The padawan, Resaat whom she'd helped alongside his master retrieve his crystal, joins her as well during this investigation.

Witness Protection ~ Cassy is assigned by the Jedi Order to protect one; Senator Lou Coddleman. Who has fallen into the firm sights of the Sith Order due to his meddling in Sith affairs. Just before their final jump through Hyperspace towards Coruscant; the Cruiser is beset upon by a Sith Battalion, who quickly board the Senator's Cruiser in waves. Lead by a powerful Sith Knight, Cassandra once again crosses lightsabers with a member of the Sith Order who outclasses her in more ways than one. The results are not what one would call 'successful' by any means.

Big Credits and Bright Lights ~ Cassy, distrought and confused by not only her continued curiousity into matters of the Dark Side, and her failure to protect Senator Coddleman; decides to go out drinking, dancing, and essentially throws the Jedi Code to the wind. She crosses paths once again with a member of the Sith Order; this time however, there is more than meets the eye to this powerful Sith.

Friends In High Places ~ Still a member of the Jedi Order; but hanging on barely by a thread of conviction. Cassandra ends up working once more with detective Aldric Cibre; this time on an extremely high profile case: the attempted assasination of one of the Republic's most prominant Senator's. The Beluga; whale like Senator goes through what details he can as Cassandra and Aldric set off to find out who pulled the trigger of one, extremely high calibur rifle meant for the Senator. But the rabbit hole goes deeper than they had estimated in this case.

The Battle of Thila ~ The Sith make their presence known to the Galaxy on an entirely new scale as they launch a literally massive offensive against the Fortress of Bak'mral on Thila. Cassandra alongside dozens of other Jedi, and thousands of Republic soldiers arrive there first to assist in defending the Fortress. The battle quickly snowballs into a clash more catastrophic than she ever imagined being a part of. She slaughters tens of dozens of Sith, mercilessly in the battle; and feels the pull of the Dark Side. It twists her mentallity heavily over the course of the battle as she begins not only to crave battle; but begins to feel empty and hollow as a killer herself over the course of the battle. Leading an entire Battalion of Jedi alongside Dan Firestar, Cassandra and Dan defend the Ramparts, Battlements, and Walls of Bak'mral; as she finds herself clashing once more, with a powerful Sith Lord; however she quickly realizes, the Republic is outmatched as things take a turn for the worse. 

Identity and Unity ~ In the weeks following the Battle of Thila; Cassandra is stricken with conflicts of both the spirit, and the mind. She was plagued by feelings of being nothing more than an empty shelled killer, on one side of an unending conflict. Wandering the Halls of the Jedi Temple, the atmosphere was completely different as many Jedi had set off for War, and even fewer remained at the Temple to teach the Younglings during this time of strife. However; Cassandra ends up stumbling upon a class of Younglings, many of which she was responsible for sending to the Jedi Temple herself as a Recruiter. The Younglings, were in for a special treat; as the Ex-Grandmaster of the Jedi Order along with High Councilor, Jedi Master Aeia Fu, were both going to be instructing the class. Cassy, feeling conflicted and distraught as well as responsible for most of these Younglings being at the Jedi Temple herself; opts too assist the two Jedi Master's in teaching the class as well.  

Dark Clouds ~ Cassandra is assigned alongside fellow Jedi Knights: Sirius Kelrune, and Dan Firestar to Onderon. Jungle Sector 29; an area filled with a gigantic Republic military base is their destination. Sith sightings on Onderon had been happening left and right; but no one could ever keep track of them. Cassandra and the others were sent to the outpost as a precaution, so that there was at least some Jedi prescence on Onderon, just in case. The Commander in charge of Onderon's Jungle Outpost isn't too thrilled to have the Jedi looking over his shoulder; but when a powerful Sith Lord launches an attack to immobilize the outpost, his opinion quickly changes.

A Third Sun ~ On Dxun, Esmerelda contacts Cassandra for help getting off of the Mandalorian moon; as she has "scored big", and cannot get off of Dxun alone, as well as be able to ship her precious score. Cassandra heads to Dxun, only to find Esmerelda in a backwater waterfall cavern; to her surprise with a non-working Hunter Killer, an HK-51 to be precise. However; as they met up, the Mandalorians arrived in full force; finally tracking down Esmerelda who'd apparently done some dirt on Dxun. They managed to not only fight them off; but reach the Century Eagle for their escape. However, Esmerelda was captured the Mandalorians as Cassandra was forced to escape with the HK alone. After heading out on an unauthorized mission into Mandalorian space; coupled with the fact that Cassy's mind was already on thin ice, Cassy makes another split second decision. She heads home; to Tatooine. Attempting once more to go against
the Jedi code and rekindle her relationship with her family if possible.

However; she discovers that her Mother and Brother haven't seen Joran in over five years, and ask Cassandra if she had seen him. Cassandra couldn't bear to tell her Mother and Brother that Joran had become one of the most prominent Scum of the Universe, and leader of an entire Slaver's League. She opted to enjoy her time with her family. A night of laughter; and rekindling love was had, as Cassandra in the morning sets off to the town of Anchorhead in order to get the HK-51 repaired. She meets a young Togruta by the name of "Sparky" who works at her father's mechanic shop. Eventually, HK-51 is repaired; and is rebooted. Cassandra was more than surprised to meet the HK's persona; a smuggling, gambling, con-artist of a Hunter Killer Droid.
She reprogrammed him to get rid of some of his more; unacceptable reactions and protocols, but kept his persona largely intact and untouched due to this vast experience with the Scum of the Galaxy, and the fact that he and Cassy actually got along and seemed to amuse one another.

Her brother's journey into the underworld of the Galaxy, coupled with her own recent actions of disobedience; end up spiraling Cassy into a decision to leave the Jedi Order in order to affect change in the Galaxy that someone within the Order cannot due to restrictions. She would no longer be held back. After stating her farewells to her Mother, and Brother, Cassandra returns to Corsucant and gathers her belongings. She boards the Century Eagle in the Jedi Hangar Bay, not arousing much suspicion among her fellow Jedi who'd known her all her life and leaves the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, looking back only once.

Shadow of Greatness ~ Curious about the legendary Artifact of a ship, the Endar Spire; on Taris. Cassy begins to wonder if there's anything left at all on the ship worth stumbling upon. The famed flagship that was downed by Darth Malak in the Jedi Civil War wasn't really a point of interest throughout the Galaxy, more of a place of reverance of the past. Of History. Excited about the prospect of walking the halls of history themselves; Cassandra heads to Taris to see what she can find aboard the old Republic Flagship.

Irrisores ~ Taking on a rather famous client, Cassy heads to Jeamus to fulfill her contract with Danica Liviana; CEO of LivCo. There is a bit of political intrigue involved; with some of the LivCo owners competition, in the form of a pair of Sith Aristocrat Twins who'd been more than a thorn in her side. Along with Lucky; she encounters a Sith from her past, who seems to have a connection (in one form or another) with her client. She meets a Sith who apparently is a Cyborg as well. Along with two members of the Sith Order, Cassy and her client attempt to make sure these 'Negotiations' between Danica and the Twins don't go horribly wrong.
