Cassandra, more than anyone, understood what this prophecy meant. Sophitia had a fragment of the cursed sword inside her, a secret Cassandra never revealed to her family, Rothion, or even Sophitia herself... But before any more words could be spoken, the other Cassandra vanished, leaving behind only her mask. Cassandra took the mask for herself, and vowed to save Sophitia no matter what. | Cassandra, more than anyone, understood what this prophecy meant.

As the daughter of a baker in Athens, Cassandra worked hard in order to support her mother, who had fallen ill from anxiety. Three years had passed since her older sister Sophitia returned from her holy quest to destroy the cursed sword. But one day, with her wedding drawing near, Sophitia once again vanished, leaving only a note behind. Cassandra was content to look after her troubled mother, who was quite close with her errant oldest daughter, until she realized why Sopihita disappeared so suddenly... Almost immediately, Cassandra thought of places where her sister might've gone, and her mind turned to one specific place. Half-convinced her theory is correct, Cassandra sets off at a run. Her destination: the ancient ruins of the Shrine of Eurydice. It was there that Sophitia, after her battle with the cursed sword, had returned the holy sword and shield entrusted to her by the gods. Once Cassandra arrived, however, she found that Sophitia was nowhere to be seen. Instead, the area was consumed in a purple hazy glow, and Cassandra saw a large portal open in front of her. A figure stepped out of the portal, seemingly in a trance, with silver hair and a face covered by a small mask. The oddly familiar figure attacked Cassandra without second thought. In self-defense, Cassandra retrieved a sword and a shield from the Shrine, and prayed to the gods. The gods answered her prayers, granting her the power to wield her sword despite never having done so in the past. After a difficult battle, Cassandra found the will to defeat her enemy and remove the mask from her face. With all doubt removed along with the mask, Cassandra now knew who stood before her. The swordswoman who looked exactly like Cassandra began to speak hesitantly of Sophitia, and about a prophecy of a future dark and cruel. "Sophitia's child will be born with a great darkness inside, and will be abducted by the cursed sword's Malfested kin to become Soul Edge's vessel. The child will become unable to live without the sword's evil, causing Sophitia to remove the fragment of the cursed sword inside her and use it to save her child..." Cassandra, more than anyone, understood what this prophecy meant. Sophitia had a fragment of the cursed sword inside her, a secret Cassandra never revealed to her family, Rothion, or even Sophitia herself... But before any more words could be spoken, the other Cassandra vanished, leaving behind only her mask. Cassandra took the mask for herself, and vowed to save Sophitia no matter what.

*Ω Sword & Nemea Shield: A sword and shield once used by Cassandra's older sister, Sophitia. The set was made from holy ore received from the ancient Greek god of the forge, Hephaestus. After Sophitia returned from her journey, they were reverently placed in an ancient shrine. They were made with great care and provide a well-balanced combination of offense and defense.
Ω Sword & Nemea Shield
*Digamma Sword & Nemea Shield: Although the shield is the same that Cassandra had always wielded, this new Digamma Sword is a repaired version of her formerly-broken Ω Sword. The set was made from holy ore received from the ancient Greek god of the forge, Hephaestus. They were made with great care and provide a well-balanced combination of offense and defense.

Cassandra wielded these weapons during her trek through Astral Chaos.
Modified Digamma Sword & Nemea Shield
*Ω Sword & Owl Shield: The holy weapons originally given to Sophitia by Hephaestus, the Greek god of forge. This implement of battle was made by Hephaestus himself using a sacred ore, and had divine properties. One theory holds that they are a physical incarnation of the gods themselves and that it can only be handled by those who can hear the words of the gods. Cassandra took these weapons for herself in hopes of saving the day in place of Sophitia, who she wanted to live a peaceful life.
Ω Sword & Owl Shield
*Dark Blade: A long sword with an elegant black blade. At one point, a group of people that assassinated a tyrant left these swords at the crime scene as a mark of justice. Even now, it is sometimes used by assassins under the cover of darkness. By soaking the blade in poison for extended periods of time, the attack capabilities of the sword have been increased. It was not designed, however, for defensive use.

*Soul Calibur: The Spirit Sword that has fought countless battles against Soul Edge behind the scenes of history, unbeknownst to man. It reacts to those of pure heart and gives its wielder the power to counter darkness. Just like the dark sword, it can change its form. It is a sword of light that fills its wielder with vitality merely by being held, but apparently, it is somewhat weak against direct impact.
