DARKEST TIMELINE AU FLASHBACK MEME
Did you work out something for your character's darkest timeline AU that you love so much it would be an absolute crime not to be able to write it out for real? WHAT LUCK! This meme is here for all your flashback-from-the-future needs. It's also the place to display sad single-character vignettes, letters that were never sent to dead friends, and anything else your dastardly little heart desires. Go forth and suffer.

The contents of this meme do not count for AC. For AC, you must participate in the real logs for the event, which will take place in Cloudreach 9:48, or else continue your normal non-event RP in the present (Guardian 9:43). However, you can count log threads in this meme toward your rewards points for the month.

just sneaking in to retaliate against the dog here :)

The hexes fall upon him, perhaps not all of them entirely effective, but enough to buy them some advantage.

As for Kain, he's focused on whichever of the enemies is causing him the most trouble and at the moment it's the dog. As Garahel pounces and latches on to a leg, Kain makes a hideous sound of pain in a disturbing twist of the real Kain's voice. He retaliates at once, jabbing those long, red lyrium-encoated claws down at the mabari.

No more talks, mh? She can feel her moviments getting more fluid as Anders's haste has effect on her- The summoner snaps her fingers before closing her hand in a fist, energy starts to gather inside of it while she chants her spell. Having that abomination distracted by Garahel is giving her all the time Rydia needs to prepare herself and aim- while in her world magic never missed she soon figured out how important it can be in this world to know where and how to hit-. Her goal? Its Eyes.

Rydia doesn't look away when the screech of pain comes from the creature, the more she keeps telling herself that's just a regular monster she's taking care of the easier will be. It's like a demon, right? They tempt you with promises and when they cannot win you over they attack your weaker spots... and she's not allowing that.

"Don't worry, Anders, this thing is the only creature who should be afraid right now."

Not... really but she's doing her best to sound confident, she's not going to show anyone how it actually hurts her to be there to kill 'kain'. Don't... don't think about anything, summoner, just take him down. 1... 2... 3... and go! There she is, shooting herfire ball at that creature's face, praying to be able to damage its eyes a little.

He wishes Rydia was right. He wishes he hadn't sen so many friends fall in skirmishes that should have been easy, whether it was to Templars in the past or Corypheus' forces in the now. But optimism is a currency he ran out of some time ago, which is why spikes of ice shoot from his hands, aimed at Kain's core.

"May you find the peace that has been denied you," he mutters. It's all he can get for the man who was once an ally and friend, a fellow soldier against the Darkspawn and Corypheus.

Garahel isn't quite able to dodge Kain's blow, yelping as those claws dig into his hide. Grateful that the Haste spell is still in effect, Inessa casts Heal on her mabari companion before following up with Stonefist. She doesn't have much hope that the boulder will send the creature that was Kain flying, but it will still stagger him, and make it easier to take him down in the long run. At this moment, that's all she can think about. Memories of the past are on hold; only the present matters.

Now healed from that claw attack somewhat, Garahel renews his offense. He brings those powerful jaws to bear on Kain, clamping on with all his might.

The fire blazes at Kain first, and he barely has time to shield his eyes as it strikes him. He spares the left side of his face and that eye, but... not so much the right. It ends up burned terribly, lyrium and flesh melting grotesquely. Next comes the ice... which definitely has an even more noticeable effect, covering his lyrium-twisted form and freezing him in his tracks for a brief moment. The air chilling around him, the demon roars even louder before the next round of attacks strikes, the boulder followed up by the mabari.

He lashes out again at the mabari, fighting to shake him off. He's still going strong, although... there are now a few places on him with obvious signs of irreparable damage, pieces of lyrium or flesh burned or bleeding or otherwise wrecked .He's still semi-fueled by the damage... the blood of dragons still powering whatever somewhat human bits of him are left, but the fight is clearly taking its toll, just starting to shift against him. He again lashes at all three opponents with something similar to a Whirlwind attack, motions swift and powerful, between his sword and claw. He ends his assault with another spray of lyrium crystals. Then, pounding a fist on the ground, Kain brings forth a barrier of red lyrium between him and his opponents, the sharp crystalline structure pulsing eerily.
