I love you so much… That is why I sometimes desire to smash you to bits!!!
~ FATE to all of humanity

Background

Mother Brain is a boss in Chrono Trigger. Appearing inside the Geno Dome during the Future era, it is responsible for the uprising of robots against humans.
This dropdown contains the synopsis of Mother Brain’s story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!

Before the Day of Lavos Mother Brain was a central computer that linked together all of the domes and factories in the year 1999 AD. After Lavos emerged and destroyed the world, Mother Brain took control of all the robots on the planet. Since they were not alive, Lavos did not consume their energy, leaving them to thrive. The factories of Geno Dome and the Derelict Factory worked night and day, constructing more machines.

Three Centuries Later By the year 2300 AD, Mother Brain had built a massive army of robots. Crono, Marle, and Lucca came through time to stop it. They destroyed its central unit, thus freeing the surviving humans from the threat it posed.

Altered Timeline Following the destruction of Lavos back in the year 1999 AD, the timeline shifted to one where the adventurers never came to destroy it. When Belthasar arrived in the future, as he was always destined to, he created a gigantic supercomputer named FATE from designs of it and Robo, and hard-wired it into his research facility: Chronopolis.

FATE is a supercomputer in Chrono Cross. It was created by Belthasar made from Robo in the distant future. Based on the old Mother Brain circuit boards, FATE is self-aware and can operate alone. Referred to as the Goddess of Fate by the people of El Nido, Lynx and even those outside of El Nido, FATE operates as an unseen villain until late in the game. FATE's original form was of the holographic artificially intelligent Mother Brain, which governed the future's robot population. Because the Day of Lavos will no longer occur (following the first game), this event is erased from existence.
This dropdown contains the synopsis of FATE’s story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!

Following the Time Crash, FATE would not risk the discovery of Chronopolis or the Frozen Flame by populations of the past, which could compromise her creation in the future. It took every measure to prevent this, sealing off the Sea of Eden. FATE created the islands comprising El Nido through terra-forming. They were populated by the Chronopolis scientists and their descendants, brainwashed to be able to live a peaceful life in FATE's 'paradise'. FATE began distributing Records of Fate (green diamond-shaped devices) across El Nido, which the denizens consulted daily. Unbeknownst to the human subjects, FATE used the Records to subconsciously control the minds of the El Nido population, subtly manipulating each person's individual judgment to stop them from leaving El Nido and interfering with history. Using machines to run Chronopolis, FATE was able to monitor El Nido with efficiency and halt any tampering.

When the young Serge came into contact with the Frozen Flame, the Prometheus Circuit, a stand-alone program, sealed it away so not even FATE could access it. Unable to draw power from the Flame, FATE's control over El Nido was effectively severed. It single-mindedly set itself to remove all obstacles. During the events of the game, Lynx schemed to be able to possess Serge's body, since that would allow him to enter the Flame's door (which recognizes only the body of its "arbiter"). Lynx succeeded and indeed managed to release the Flame's lock. It is revealed that FATE's desire was to use the Flame to reincarnate itself into a real, and new, living species. Lynx/FATE was defeated by the real Serge, however, before she could realize her dream.

Lynx's true identity is FATE. When Wazuki (Serge's father) and Miguel (Leena's father) tried to sail to Marbule fourteen years ago to find a cure for Serge's disease after he was bitten by a panther demon. They were blown off course and ended up in The Sea of Eden, where Chronopolis' computer systems were shut down due to the severity of the storm the FATE computer was offline for ten minutes. But during those ten minutes the Frozen Flame found Wazuki and Serge, Serge was then cured and was named "arbiter" of the Frozen Flame. Wazuki then was possessed by FATE and changed into Serge's greatest fear at the time; a panther and called himself Lynx and was the living incarnation of FATE who plotted to steal Serge's body. Lynx was also the one who killed Serge in Another World by drowning him. In the Home World, Kid saves Serge's life.

Standard Equipment

*Displays: Displays set up for Mother Brain that heal them when they take too much damage.

*The Frozen Flame: The Frozen Flame is an item in Chrono Cross and Radical Dreamers: Nusumenai Hōseki. It is a piece of Lavos that separated from the organism during or after the year of 65,000,000 B.C. Somehow, the artifact retained a kind of sentience, and was able to serve as a communicator between Lavos, deep inside the planet, and beings on the outside crust. It also was imbued with an incredible amount of magical power, the full extent of which is unknown. It is considered the "essence" of Lavos, and contacting it is analogous to communicating with the creature. The legend described the Dragon God's sealing the Flame, a great evil, in the Sea of Eden, when FATE had actually sealed the Dragon Gods up as the protector of humanity. FATE continued to rely on the Flame as its power source until 1006 A.D., when Serge was mauled by a panther demon. Schala caused a raging magnetic storm that blew him to Chronopolis, where the defenses were down; Serge then touched the Flame and became recognized as Arbiter by the Prometheus Circuit, which subsequently locked FATE out from accessing the artifact. His contact healed him and also corrupted the mind of his father, Wazuki. Intent on re-establishing access with the Frozen Flame, FATE shaped his father's mind and gave him the directive to kill Serge in the year of 1010 A.D. This succeeded, allowing access once more; however, in 1020 A.D., Kid traveled back in time and saved him, causing the dimensions to split. Serge once again retained Arbiter status, even across dimensions. Meanwhile, the Sea of Eden in Home World reflected the fate of that dimension's future destruction.

  • Lynx: Lynx was Serge's biological father Wazuki until he was corrupted by the FATE supercomputer. When Wazuki took Serge to be healed by the Frozen Flame in Chronopolis, he was corrupted by its emanations and subsequently became subject to mind control by the FATE supercomputer. Since the Prometheus Circuit locked FATE's access to the Frozen Flame, FATE shaped Lynx with the objective of killing Serge and restoring the connection. Total control was achieved in 1010 AD., the year in which FATE made Wazuki attempt to drown his son. Regardless of whether it succeeded in either dimension, this effectively wiped the last remains of Wazuki's mind and care for Serge, allowing him to be physically reconfigured to resemble the panther demon that attacked Serge in 1006 A.D.. Lynx had a sentience and personality out of his own apart from FATE, becoming sadistic and manipulative, motivated only to achieve his goal while sating his own sick desires in the process. In Another World, FATE reasoned that Serge would cross the dimensions in the year 1020 A.D. and Lynx was called back to set up events that would take advantage of this fact. He was sent abroad to Porre and then to Viper Manor in order to play the two parties and set up FATE's plan, joining Harle around this time.
