Oh, well that's ridiculous. She probably does but doesn't mean she is addicted to lyrium.


With the current lore how it is, it'd be hard to wave it off in any manner that's not silly.

I'm of the mood of waiting to see the game before I start getting my pitchfork.

But why would she be addicted to lyrium? Seems out of place if you ask me.

Everyone who uses the abilities of a Templar needs lyrium and once they start, they'll have to continue unless they want to end up brain dead.

If she's uses Templar abilities she will need Lyrium to use them. Especially given that Bioware want the specializations to have some meaning storywise.

DG confirmed that Templars need lyrium to power their abilities. If Cassandra has the Templar spec, she needs lyrium to power it, thus she could be addicted to it.

Though again, I would stress waiting to see how it works out. Getting up in arms now is a tad pointless when we aren't even sure she's a Templar.

If I wanted to be a dick I'd say all Templar characters.

But as far ad I'm aware no character had shown the effects of addiction are paranoia, obsession and dementia.

Well, you could say Bartrand and Meredith fell into this addiction because of Red Lyrium.

You can be a templar and then be junkies together! It'll be super romantic.

Evangeline from Asunder was shown to have control over it, the same could go for Lambert as well

 

So while they could be addicted to Lyrium they also have full control over it and can last at least a week or so without it

We have seen characters going through withdrawal in Howe's dungeon. But I view Cassandra's dependency as analogous to Alistair's taint. It's going to be very painful in a few decades, but unlikely to be a big problem now.

I know that. I'm just having fun speculating.

Ah, did not know that haven't read Asunder.

In that case, if Cass was addicted she probably could get control over the addiction.

Watch, it's going to turn out she's a Reaver and bring a whole new mess of issues!

It could be a willpower thing similar to Grey Wardens

Also possible. Cass can just glare the addiction down.

If Cassandra has the Templar spec and if she is addicted to lyrium;

If Varric kept the lyrium idol and it's affecting him;

If the Inquisitor takes the Templar spec;

And if we add Iron Bull to the mix we get:

 

Team junkie!

 

The focus power of this team is withdrawal and it makes them all go berserk!

I might be wrong, but when I say Cassandra is addicted to lyrium I mean that needs lyrium to use templar abilities and to Not suffer withdrawal, Not that she'll constantly craves it (I think templars are fine if They keep if under control) . She might suffer from the side-effects, but I don't think it'll necessarily happen, and she probably has years before the side-effects will appear.

I really doubt Lyrium addiction is going to be a major part of her story.

I can only assume I must've had my eye on the extra rune slots instead of the risks...
