Most wands tend to measure from 22.86 cm to 35.56 cm. Longer wands are said to be drawn to wizards with "more lively" personalities. There could also be some strange irony that Cassandra has a longer wand due to her shorter stature.

Wood: Cherry

A Western wand-purchaser should dispel any notion from their mind that the pink blooming cherry makes for a frivolous or merely ornamental wand, as cherry wood often makes for wands that possess truly lethal power no matter the core. If paired with a core of dragon heartstring however, the wand should never to be teamed with a wizard without exceptional self-control and strength of mind.

Core: Dragon Heartstring

Made by Garrick Ollivander and Gregorovitch, Dragon Heartstrings produce wands with the most magic power that are capable of casting quite flamboyant spells. Wands made from Dragon Heartstring also tend to learn more quickly than other types of cores. While they can change allegiance if won in a duel from their original master, they always bond strongly with their current owner. Dragon Heartstring wands tend to be easiest to turn to the Dark Arts, but will not be inclined that way of their own accord. They are however the most prone of Ollivanders three most-used cores to accidents, being a bit temperamental in nature.

Flexibility: Brittle

Ollivander describes this wand as being "Brittle, perfect for travelers and explorers who yearn for frequent challenges

Cassandra Vera Hartwin was born in the small town of Brecon, Wales to Leandra and Edmund Hartwin. She was the youngest of three with her two older twin sisters, Irene and Iris. Her mother was a witch and her father a muggle. She was raised in a mostly non-magic household though, as her mother tended not do use it much, especially since neither of her sisters had ever shown any signs of having magic. Her mother would occasionally talk about her school days and would receive the Daily Prophet but never particularly said too much as after Cassandra’s sisters showed no signs, her mother had figured neither would Cass so why tell her things she would never experience. Other than that though, she had a fairly simple childhood.
She was relatively close to her parents even though her father was often away on business he always tried to make time for Cassandra and her two sisters when he could. Most of her time was spent with her mother who ran a small flower shop in town where Cassandra would often spend most of her time drawing/sketching the people who came in and out or doing any homework she had. When she wasn’t there she would often be with her two older sisters whom, despite being six years older, very much adored their little sister and insisted on her bringing her everywhere. Cassandra didn’t particularly mind as she very much cared for her sisters., even if they were a bit more social than she cared to be. Other than that, she went to school and mostly kept to herself which is possibly why she consider her sisters as her only friends.
She wasn't particularly close to her grandparents on her mother's side as her mother was a pureblood and her parents hadn't exactly approved of their daughter running off to marry a muggle. Things didn't exactly improve either when neither of Cassandra's sisters showed any signs of having magic. As for her father's side, her grandmother was her father's only living parent and since she lived in Germany it was slightly harder for the family to visit her, in fact Cassandra had only really seen her two or three times in her life, though she would on occasion writes letters to her grandmother when she had the time which made her closer despite not being able to see her.
When Cassandra’s letter arrived, it was a very exciting day in the Hartwin household. It’s highly possible her mother was actually more excited than she was when the owl arrived with the letter. Her father insisted they threw some sort of celebration party, not entirely sure what one was to do in this situation, to which his wife agreed wholeheartedly. It, overall, was a very happy time for the Hartwin family

Cassandra first showed signs of magic slightly later at the the age of eight. Her mother had left the house for a small while to run some errands and had left Cassandra's two older sisters to watch her. While everything had started out find, the older girls had decided to play a game of hide-n-seek with their younger sister which didn't quite go as planned. Somewhere the two older girls had forgotten to tell young Cassandra that they were playing this game so they went to hide expecting their young sister to find them while not thinking that they hadn't exactly explained that they were playing to her. So after sometime had passed and Cassandra had not heard or seen her sisters she went to investigate. Of course, she couldn't find them and, as any young child would be, became increasingly more worried and scared that her sisters had disappeared. In this frantic and scared state, something must have triggered because very suddenly, and much to the surprise of her sisters and her mother who had just been walking towards the front door at the time, all the doors in the house flew open which unfortunately didn't help the state of the young girl.
After quite a bit of apologizing from her sisters and some calming down from her mother, the scary situation turned to one of joy as Mrs. Hartwin put together the pieces of what happened in her head and very quickly became overjoyed that possibly one o f her children had shown signs of magic.

Cassandra on whole is a fairly introverted person who generally stays on her own. She certainly isn’t against being around people, in fact, she actually quite enjoys being around other people but just has a hard time starting a conversation with people. If a person were to actually get to know her though, and possibly just start a conversation with her, they would find that she’s actually very sweet and actually rather charming despite her more timid nature. A good thing to note as well is she can be a little more stubborn than one would imagine, a trait she absolutely shares with her mother.
Cassandra is naturally very curious about the world around her which can sometimes lead her to problematic situations that most likely could have been avoided. Her curiosity can also sometimes lead her to daydreaming as her thoughts often spiral down rabbit holes. Generally, she can snap herself back to reality but on occasion a friendly nudge is needed to bring her out of her thoughts. She’s very creative and really enjoys drawing which is why she can generally be found with a sketchbook. When she’s not off somewhere drawing she sometimes just can be found people watching as she simply enjoys watching people come and go.
