The Reavers: A dangerous gang that terrorizes the surrounding wasteland. Cassian views them as deadly enemies and has spent years avoiding their raids.
✦ BACKGROUND ✦
Cassian grew up in the collapsed cities after the Great Fall. He learned early on that food and bullets are more valuable than gold.
He has spent years alone, avoiding larger groups to escape Reaver raids, which has made him skilled at survival but socially stunted and deeply paranoid.
His life has become a constant cycle of scavenging, hiding, and moving before danger catches up with him. Trust is something he rarely gives, and every stranger is a potential threat.
Despite his paranoia, Cassian hasn't completely lost his compassion. Somewhere beneath the nervousness and defensive attitude is a young man who still hopes there's something worth surviving for.
