Trojan heroine????

Cassandra -- Second only to Helen in beauty. A prophetess who spurned Apollo. The god then cursed her never to be believed in her foretellings. She predicted that Paris and Helen would be the downfall of Troy, and that the horse brought by the Achaeans spelled doom. Coroebus, Prince of Phrygia, lent Troy his aid out of love for Cassandra. During the Sack, she was raped by Ajax, son of Oileus, in the Temple to Athena. When Coroebus tried to defend her, he was slain by Neoptolemus. Cassandra was then given to Agamemnon as a concubine. She bore him twins, but upon arriving in Mycenae, she was killed by Clytemnestra, the jealous wife of Agamemnon. Aegisthus, her lover, slaughtered the babes.

This is interesting. Cassandra is my real name and I was named after this specific person as my mother was obsessed with her story. I think it suits me in more ways than one.
