ABOUT

Adopted as a newborn after a young birthmother chose Will and Emma Schuester early into her pregnancy, the two heavily involved all along and both present at her birth, Cassie was an unremarkable, easy baby, though as she grew and developed her own distinct personality, it became quickly clear to everyone else that the family had their hands full—not that Will and Emma would ever allow themselves to see that, though. See, trouble seemed to follow Cassie. Something would break in the family home, and Cassie was the only one who could’ve possibly done it; all she had to do was bat her long lashes and promise in the sweetest voice that it wasn’t her, and her parents couldn’t help but believe her.

When she started school, Will and Emma would receive constant phone calls from the principal asking them to come into school because Cassie had done something she shouldn’t have, but the second they arrived and she promised them in her sweet, butter wouldn’t melt voice that it wasn’t her, they’d back her all the way. Their failure to see the bad in their daughter created a monster within Cassie, who realized quickly she could do exactly what she wanted, exactly when she wanted, and she’d get away with it unscathed. This behavior became worse as Cassie reached her teens; not only did her wrongdoings reach a much larger scale, she’d also had the time to practice her excuses and lies, and suddenly Cassie was the very definition of a nightmare.

Although her parents were wrapped around her little finger, still unable to see anything but good in their sweet little princess, they learned quickly that she wasn’t the best fit for her father’s show. She had a semi-decent singing voice, but nothing to write home about, and when it came to any dance-related activities, Cassie had two left feet. Plus, whenever she was on set, mysterious things would happen. Ballet shoes would end up with their ribbons tied in impossible to unfasten knots, or she’d get in a fight with one of the dancers, but of course it was never Cassie’s fault. She was always the victim, further backed by her parents unwavering faith in her and their inability to not believe any and every lie she told.

Cassie did okay in school. She had plenty of friends, because for all she was a compulsive liar and loved to screw with people for nothing more than her own entertainment, she could be a good friend when she wanted to be, too. Her grades were always fine, although the one class in which she excelled was drama. It should’ve been no surprise really, considering how great she was at making people believe anything she said, and when her parents realized drama really was her subject, the theatrical tantrums she’d periodically thrown throughout her life made a lot of sense. Since her singing was only decent, it was definitely her acting chops that helped land her lead roles in school productions, and Cassie was great at getting into character and captivating an audience.

It was her love for theatrics—aided by her penchant for manipulation—that led Cassie into the strange but entertaining (for her) side gigs, in which people are able to hire her to attend their weddings and object if they decide they want a way out, or their funerals where she will stand mysteriously in the back and cause problems for confused attendees who are left wondering if their deceased loved one had a secret child nobody had known about, or a far too young for them mistress. It was also what made her eventually apply to college specifically to study drama.

It took a few years after high school for Cassie to decide to apply to PSU, happy with her life of ruining people’s weddings and funerals while getting away with any and everything living under Will and Emma’s roof. Starring in community productions was fun enough for a while, but recently the itch to spread her wings began to grow, so Cassie decided it was time to leave Columbus and terrorize the people of Los Angeles instead. A bigger city, and a bigger setting like a vast college campus, would be the perfect playground for Cassie to cause problems, now on a much larger scale than ever before.

Character name: Cassie Schuester.

Their name: UTP.

FC suggestions: UTP.

Age range: UTP but must be a male professor.

Connection title: One night bribe.

Connection details: This person is a professor at PSU, and he and Cassie met before the semester began. They were both at a bar, and ended up hitting it off—though, on Cassie's part it was just an acting exercise she set herself, but he didn't know that. They were drinking, and either they hooked up or he got so drunk that he passed out and nothing happened, but either way, they simply went their separate ways afterwards. When the semester started, and he realized she was a student/she realized he was a professor, he panicked and acted like they didn't know one another, while Cassie saw it as an opportunity to screw with him, and to get some special treatment in the process. The first opportunity she got to speak to him alone, she reminded him of their one night tryst (whether we go the actual hookup route OR he was too drunk to remember and she just told him they hooked up, either works) and promised not to tell anyone as long as he stayed on her good side and did everything she asked of him. She has bigger plans for if and when his patience begins to run out and he's ready to just blow up and tell people (Terri Schuester style fake pregnancy plot, so please be okay with her faking a pregnancy!), but for now she's just enjoying the bribery for what it is.

Would you like them to contact you?: Yes please!

FAMILY BACKGROUND

The very epitome of theater kid himself, Will Schuester’s life was always going to be surrounded by performance. Unfortunately for him, marrying his high school sweetheart, Terri, turned out to be more sour than sweet, and when their relationship turned toxic, with Terri faking a pregnancy in an effort to keep him around, Will had to give up on his then-dream job of coaching a winning high school Glee Club for free to focus on his main Spanish teaching job. When news of Terri’s fake pregnancy came to light, Will filed for divorce, seeking comfort in the arms of his colleague, the school’s guidance counselor, Emma Pillsbury. The two wed in the year to follow.

Supported by his new wife—who made more than him financially anyway—Will decided to quit his job as high school Spanish teacher, and instead secure a space to open a performing arts studio. The studio and its classes growing in popularity quickly, Will was approached by a production company interested in making a reality show. Soon, The Schue Must Go On, a show focusing on the studio’s child performers with Will the adult face as the main teacher and owner, was born. It was supposed to be something of a filler show, but it gained followers quickly, and soon America was obsessed with watching bratty children compete against each other in their dance, voice and acting classes under Will’s guidance, his family shooting to fame in the blink of an eye.

As parents, Will and Emma can be described best as helicopter parents. They’re very over-protective, and try to be involved in every aspect of their children’s lives, despite how busy they are with The Schue Must Go On, which, somehow, is still going strong and has spawned many an off-shoot instalment. Will is an esteemed performing arts coach, and has appeared as a guest judge on various talent shows (AGT, The Voice, DWTS, etc.) alongside his role as head of his studio, and of the Schuester family.
