Red Lyrium is like Knight-Commander Meredith was at the end of DA2, DA3 will have an entire Templar division like that (but presumably weaker) and speaking of Archdemon, there's a few of them left (at least 2 iirc) and also all the darkspawn, 10s of 1000s of them as a low-ball estimate. Lyrium in general drives the users nuts by overdose, how much worse is Red Lyrium to be sure? That's rather disturbing to imagine, as the Alagaesians will have to pull out all the stops if they intend to survive. |

Lyrium can have many effects, it's ore made out of magic as far as we know. It's supposed to be toxic, a dwarf merchant in Orzammar became touched in the head by having some mix with his blood, mages can go into the fade by touching it, it makes weapons better if infused with it, it gave Andraste's ashes healing powers through radiation, etc. Red lyrium just makes whoever holds it psychotic.

So is Lyrium as hazardous as Nuclear energy by chance, or just Red Lyrium? How did Red Lyrium in particular came to existence, considering that Lyrium is made out of Magic? |

Lyrium is the Dragon Age phlebotinum, it pretty much whatever the writers want lol.
Where red lyrium comes from hasn't been explained yet as far as I know (which is pretty damn far)

Interesting. Wonder if Alagaesia has the potential to extract a lot of Lyrium at work. |

Oh red lyrium also is a big power up, Meredith was elevated to "somewhat of a challenge to Hawke"-level by it.

I suspect the Inquisitor will be an epic badass too, most probably above Hawke's league.

So let me guess, a lot of professionals with Red Lyrium could be a viable response for Alagaesian elves, right?

They're gonna have to be, and as far as potential DA leaders might be concerned, if all the Warden candidates and all 3 siblings are either captured and brain-washed or they wind up dead in fighting Alagaesians, The Inquisitor will be one of the only people left to worry about. Also, Morrigan will have to return. My main reason for finding a fight like this interesting: Its not wrong to admit that carnage might interest me, right? |

As far as I know Inheritance is pretty low powered, like I think some people from Thedas could solo given time.
And yes, an entire Templar division is hooked on red lyrium.

Provided they can deal away with Murtagh and Thorn first, whom in this fight will not only be Free-willed and not bound to Galbatorix, but also the both of them will be doing whatever it takes to ensure their side survives. ___ They will be needed to fight the Alagaesian Elves and some of the Alagaesian Dwarves, then. |

Virulent Walking Bomb one of them, he infects the other when he explodes.

That could be useful against the Painless Soldiers if they're included. ___ We didn't get to overall leadership regards though, so should it be one of the Magi Wardens who winds up as the overall leader, a Dalish Elf or a Human Noble or City Elf? After that, we got to attend the Playable Hawke sibling in terms of overall class, and then once we get those attended with, we can talk about incarnations for both sides to start with, as all the major players for both sides' modern storylines are intended to be alive for this fight. |

There really should just be one Warden, it's already stompy enough imo.
