~ Cassie after defeating Shinnok.
Cassandra "Cassie" Cage is one of the main characters of the Mortal Kombat: Titan Trilogy, both a reboot and spin-off of the Mortal Kombat franchise.
She is a major protagonist of the Mortal Kombat X comic series, one of the four main protagonists of Mortal Kombat X, and a supporting character of Mortal Kombat 11.
She is the daughter of Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade, and a member of the Special Forces. She is famously known for defeating the fallen Elder God Shinnok and saving the realms from his corruption. She later becomes the commander of the Special Forces.
Cassie is an attractive, young Caucasian woman with blonde hair and a slim build. She wears a Special Forces outfit and has gray eyes.
Personality[]
Cassie Cage is a strong girl brave and bold but while brave Cassie has shown to be rather cocky. She is like her mother tough as nails but is mouthy like her father. Despite being a good soldier, Cassie Cage is stubborn and has a problem with following orders.
Cassie is head strong, determined but also brash. Like her father, Cassie likes to show off and brag. Cassie has the traits of her mother and father strong like Sonya but egotistical like her. While Cassie enjoys her job of being a soldier she enjoys what is popular with the current younger generation far more. Cassie likes to boast and make jokes she is skilled but prefers to not take her opponents seriously. Another thing about Cassie is that she holds grudges.
Cassie has revealed to Raiden and Liu Kang that she has trust issues because of Dark Raiden Revenant Liu Kang. She also isn't willing to forgive even if they aren't like their evil counterparts. Cassie is not afraid to take risks but she is also very vain and worries about getting hurt or something of hers getting ruined. When she’s about to fight with Jason Voorhees, Cassie says she didn't want blood on her outfit. She has also shown to be obnoxious a few times. She enjoys the thrill of fighting but also enjoys relaxing and goofing around. Cassie is motivated by wrath and anger.
Cassie, while known to be arrogant, has a good side of her that her friends and family get to see. Much like Johnny, she has a lot of pride and she can be overconfident. Cassie is sassy and likes to show off. She also has an ego which she gets from her father. She has a problem with underestimating her opponents while she overestimates herself Cassie knows that she is a good fighter but she gives herself to much credit.
Even though Earthrealm is currently working with Outworld, Cassie Cage still believes another war will happen between the two realms. She is happy with the peace but will look for any trouble or problem from Outworld even if it's not there.
Physical Appearance[]
Cassie, a woman of Caucasian descent, is an homage to both of her parents, with her blonde hair, and a face and figure very similar to that of her mother, while her sunglasses, sharp wit, and cocky attitude are reminiscent of her father. She dons a tight bodysuit designed for tactical combat, colored blue to signify a connection to the police force. She also wears dog tags, has a very prominent undercut, and has a helix piercing shown on her upper right ear. Her trademark weapon is her set of twin pistols.
In MK11, she sports a suit of armor and has a drone which assists her during matches. Her hair has grown out and longer, now tied in a ponytail that reaches halfway down her back, resulting in a further resemblance to her mother.
Powers and Abilities[]
As the daughter of Sonya Blade and Johnny Cage, Cassie has received Special Forces training from her mother, while gaining her father's superhuman abilities. Her powers increase her physical attributes and even allowed her to defeat an overpowered Shinnok.
Powers[]
Divine Empowerment: Being the daughter of Johnny Cage, she was born with her father's godlike powers which gives her magic-based abilities and superhuman attributes. When she uses this power, she becomes a formidable opponent.
Superhuman Strength: In her fatalities and brutalities, her strength is shown when she is able to shadow kick through her opponent's chest and stab her arms through the sides of the body. She can also shadow kick her opponents up while kicking their heads off.
Superhuman Speed: She can shadow kick her opponent at a high rate of speed like her father.
Superhuman Stamina
Superhuman Agility
Superhuman Durability: Cassie can tolerate large amounts of physical pain from strong beings like Torr.
Magic:
Green Armor of the Gods: When she activates her armor, she can resist Shinnok's magic attacks and can use it to defeat him while in his Corrupted form.
Energy Manipulation: Cassie can also use her green godlike magic to make her gunshots glow green for added effect while increasing damage as well. Her skills with green energy have improved greatly by the time of MK11, now being able to infuse it into objects, as seen in her Fatal Blow.
Abilities[]
Skilled Martial Artist: As the daughter of Sonya Blade and Johnny Cage, Cassie has received Special Forces training from her mother, while gaining her father's fighting style. She has bested more experienced martial artists like Revenant Sindel, Revenant Kitana, D'Vorah, Corrupted Shinnok, her mother, Revenant Kabal, and Revenant Liu Kang.
Master Acrobat: Like her parents, she is a very skilled acrobat. She is able to cartwheel back to send her opponents airborne.
Stealth: Cassie is very skilled at using stealth like her teammates.
Weapon Mastery: As a member of the Special Forces, she is a master at using weapons in combat. She uses guns, nightsticks, explosives, and even kinds of sharp weapons. She also gains a combat drone BLB-118 that assists her during combat.
Marksmanship: She is an expert sharpshooter like her mother. She can use machine guns and twin pistols against enemies like the Black Dragon and the Netherrealm Army.
Swordsmanship: Although barley seen, she does use a nightstick in her fighting style in MKX and used sharp swords to behead an Oni in MK11.
High Intelligence: During her time in the Special Forces, she has gained a high intellect in using technology, formulating strategies, and using vehicles. After her mother sacrificed herself during a mission, it was Cassie's right to become the C.O of the Special Forces. She became a great leader to those around her. She has led her team consisting of her friend Jacqui, Takeda, and Kung Jin. She also worked together with other beings like Raiden, Liu Kang, Kung Lao, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, and even Outworlders like Kitana, Jade, Sheeva, and Baraka.
Leadership
Tactical Analysis
Indomitable Will: Cassie maybe is a childish and funny person like her father, but she also is very headstrong and serious like her mother. Her willpower and determination are as absolute as her parents. She also dealt with Kung Jin's disrespectable behavior and managed to prove why she is the leader. Cassie also cares very deeply for her friends and parents and would not let anyone harm them.

Trivia[]
She always appears to be chewing bubblegum.
On the "Friendships" site seen within her Selfie fatality, players can see a few characters from the game comment on her selfie photo of her and the opponent on whom she performed the fatality.
Following the events of Aftermath, Cassie's fate is unknown. She is last seen being forcibly taken away by the Shokans along with her parents' younger versions.
In a mirror match, Cassie is stated to have graduated high school in 2010.
No information is given about Cassie's romantic life; though she likely doesn't have one due to being the daughter of a celebrity. Although she does mention a boy she likes to her mother in one of their match intros.
Cassie mentions in a match intro that she turned out pretty well rounded despite being the daughter of a celebrity. This is thanks to Sonya, as she kept Johnny's ego in check; keeping a bad influence from affecting Cassie.
