Cassiopeia was the older daughter, the second oldest child of Cygnus Black II and Violetta Bulstrode. She didn't have the pressure of being an heir; all of that fell to Pollux. But with the youngest son disowned and Dorea as the pampered baby, she still had to live up to certain expectations.

And she knew that she didn't. She didn't marry into a prominent Pure-blood family and make good connections. In fact, she didn't marry at all.

Cassiopeia cared more about having a career that having a family. In fact, she had a very filling position in the Beast Division of the Ministry. She never wanted to have a family, and just focused on her career. She knew she was a disappointment, but ignored the looks she received from her family.
