- cassius -


Cassius is a character in the play "Julius Caesar", who happens to be Caesar's rival. He uses his manipulative and persuasion skills, for example, when he is talking to Brutus, on why Julius Caesar is not "immortal", as common people see Caesar to be. Cassius is able to word-out his persuasion to Brutus, by blending the subject of "honor" and the subject of Julius Caesar. He favored Pompey, the ruler before Julius, better than anybody else. Julius refused the crown, and bad signs, like lightning for example, were happening as Cassius was okay with that. Coincidentally, he really thinks the only way for Caesar not to become king is for Julius Caesar to die.
