Raising Cain: Eden Era

Q&A

Who is Cain?

Cain is an OC that is based on the Biblical character of Cain. He is the eldest son of Adam and Eve. In this AU, he is the biological son of Lucifer, the Devil.

Is Cain one of the Nephilim?

Yes! Cain is a Nephil, half angel and half human.

Did Cain mean to kill Abel?

No, he didn’t. Cain had no idea that he could kill Abel. Cain is half angel and so is more durable than a normal human. He’d been hit much harder than Abel had been many times before and was always fine. Cain and Adam roughhoused with each other often, so a hard hit during a disagreement wasn’t unusual. Things went too far this time, however, and Abel unfortunately bled out before Cain realized what had happened.

Was Abel the first human soul in heaven?

No, Abel didn’t go to heaven or hell when he died. When Cain struck him, he accidentally used his angelic power to smite Abel’s soul. Shattered, the soul was not able to go anywhere. Heaven stitched Abel’s soul back together and put it in a new body, that of his younger brother, Seth. When Seth died, he went to heaven, but Adam had been long dead at that point.

Did Eve cheat on Adam?

No, Eve wasn’t with Adam when Cain was conceived. Eve was in a relationship with both Lucifer and Lilith at first. It wasn’t until after she ate the apple and Lucifer and Lilith fled the garden that Eve fell in love with Adam.

Does Adam know Cain isn’t his son?

Neither Adam or Eve knew that Cain was Lucifer’s. They didn’t know how genetics worked because Cain was literally the first baby born on earth. Lucifer and Lilith had been gone for months before Eve even knew she was going to have a baby.

Where is Awan, Aclima, and all of Adam and Eve’s other children?

Awan and Aclima don’t exist in this AU. I’m not interested in Cain having a romantic partner at this time since it’s not relevant to the story I want to tell. As for the other children of Adam and Eve, they aren’t born until after Cain leaves the garden in this AU. This includes Seth. More info on Seth can be read under the section “Was Abel the first human soul in heaven?”

Oh, that reminds me--if there’s a Seth and an Abel in the Street Fighter, then surely there must be a Cain as well

Or maybe someone like M. Bison is playing the role of “Cain” here
