things to know about cain if your muse ever gets into a conflict with him:
he can reflect all of their attacks back upon them, no matter the nature, and the swiftness in which he does so is nearly imperceptible to the senses. be extremely careful with your offense against him. sidenote: these attacks can also phase through his material body and be inflicted on the recipient. the implication is that he has some affect on or manipulation of space-time.
coming into contact with him directly or indirectly can give him the opportunity to speed up the natural process of cellular decay and disintegrate your body.
he is capable of materializing orΒ βphasingβ through any kind of substance.Β he can also descend from the sky as what appears to be aΒ βblack rainβ and physically teleport at a close range.
he is capable of utilizing a physical force or telekinesis to destroy and pretty much bulldoze any objects in his path.
when physically displaying the further extent of his crusnik abilities, cainβs nails become claws which are capable of tearing through even diamond.
his six white wings are fully capable of flight and can cause devastating gusts of wind.
because of these abilities, he rarely needs to make use of his lance, the aptly named spear of longinus. this favored weapon is a part of his physical body.
you canβt really destroy his body. thereβs no meat or bones or... anything, really, inside of him. his bodyβs only real weakness is that his time is limited - he must regenerate in a chamber after sustaining too much damage. even if his body is completely destroyed, he is still capable of regeneration, as he has already regenerated from nothing but ashes once before in his existence. however, it is also implied that isaak also creates temporary shells for him to inhabit.
he can consume living beings and network their consciousness into his own; in a sense, this is perhaps a fate worse than death, as those he eats are implied to liveΒ βwithinβ him and he gains insight into their every thought. cain is particular about who he bestows this fate to and considers living within himself a βparadisicalβ existence which is the highest honor he can offer.
he can alsoΒ βeatβ more nebulous energy. take that as you will, heβs done it.
while cain vastly outpaces most others in his universe in terms of power, this is implied to only be a fraction of what he is truly capable of, which is why his primary goal is the repair of his true body. with his real body, he would be capable of world-ending feats all on his own and would have no further need of the rosenkreuz orden to carry out his will.
