Lavos

“	An extraterrestrial life-form that is thought to have fallen from the heavens 65 million years ago. On the time line that existed before history was changed, Lavos was assumed to have slept deep below the planet's surface… Sleeping and consuming the planet's energy up until the day of destruction known as the '"Apocalypse."' There are those who believe that, 12 thousand years ago, the legendary ancient magical civilization known as Zeal came into contact with Lavos. That fateful encounter is said to have resulted in Zeal disappearing from the surface of the planet within the space of a single night. However, the very existence of the ancient civilization of Zeal has never been proven, so up till this day this theory cannot be confirmed. On some time lines, Lavos appeared on the surface of the planet in the year 1999 and brought the world to ruins. However, a group of young time travelers saw where their planet's history was heading and, through their actions, rewrote time. This very research facility exists on that new time line… In a world where, thanks to the defeat of Lavos by the young adventurers, the Apocalypse never happened… On a temporal vector where human civilization continued to evolve unhampered. All the data on Lavos that was obtained from tracing different parallel world possibilities has proven to be volatile, with fluctuating discrepencies. Perhaps, at this point in time, it is nearly impossible to obtain any true information about Lavos.	„

“	Let all that was once fade into oblivion! I welcome the end of existence.	„
	~ Lavos speaking through the Frozen Flame and Dragon God

“	In order to survive, all living things in this world, fight desperately and devour those they defeat... Must one kill other living things in order to survive? Must one destroy another world in order to allow one's own world to continue? The wounded in turn wound and torment those weaker than they themselves are. There are only the killers and the killed... The sinners who are judged, and the victims that do the judging... What meaning is there to such a world?	„

Background

Lavos is the final boss of Chrono Trigger, an alien parasite which crash-landed in the year 65,000,000 BC It was named "Lavos" by Ayla, a word she made up from the root words "La" meaning "fire" and "Vos" "big" in the Iokan language.

Lavos came to Earth with the intention of draining its energy so that it could produce genetically enhanced spawn, which would then continue the cycle on other planets. In the North American version of the game, it is claimed once in the series that Lavos directly influenced all technology and life on the planet, evolving the planet's life forms to cultivate it, and make itself stronger. However, the line is absent in the Japanese version. Despite it originally just being in translation, in Chrono Cross it appears this actually is the case as a large portion of the game involves many layers of timeline events being controlled which all end at Lavos. In the original timeline, Lavos slept for millions of years, gaining power until 1999 AD. He was summoned in 12000 BC by Queen Zeal and the Mammon Machine. He emerged from the Earth in 1999 AD and put the world into an apocalyptic state. However, because of the interference of many of the characters, he was summoned at two other points in time of 12000 BC and 600 AD. While traveling in the year of 2300 AD, Crono, Marle, and Lucca see a video of the Day of Lavos which occurred in 1999 AD and decide to prevent it somehow. Magus is also after Lavos for destroying his home era in the year 12000 BC.

Lavos has three different forms. The first form is the outer shell, which resembles the Peluda, a mythical beast in French mythology. The second form consists of a large humanoid form with two arms. The third and final form is Lavos Core, consisting of three parts: a humanoid center, and two floating 'bits'. Apparently, the absolute core of Lavos is one of these bits, since it can revive its other parts and destroying it defeats Lavos.

While the natural dreamstone is a substance responsible for the first evolution of human beings from animal apes to sentient creatures, it is revealed in Chrono Cross that Lavos is responsible for the creation and advancement of the actual modern human species. Upon impact, a splinter of Lavos's shell broke off. This becomes the focal point of Chrono Cross, the Frozen Flame. Lavos is also the final boss in Chrono Cross, except in the form of the Time Devourer, the result of the defeated Lavos assimilating Schala in the darkness beyond time. Using the eponymous Chrono Cross, Serge successfully separated Schala from Lavos and destroyed the parasite once and for all.

The camera will then shift its focus onto the enemies, whereupon the eclipse is observed to form on the ground they are standing on.

The ghost of Crono goes on to note that it could cross space and time and unify people's thoughts and feelings; transfer memories; draw on the sounds of the six colored Elements to produce a healing harmony, and combine the sounds of the world into one melody), Dimensional Travel (Can travel into lower dimensional areas outside of reality), Summoning (Serge can summon all of his party members from another dimension with the Chrono Cross), Negation of Lavos' survival-related abilities (Separated Schala from Lavos and killed him once and for all)

Standard Equipment: Nothing notable. | Schala.

Intelligence: Cosmic (Despite Lavos animalistic tendencies, it is an extremely intelligent parasite, being the very reason for evolution of humanity while also surveying said evolution so it could gain the DNA of all organisms on the planet and evolve into a higher lifeform, all the while it is the creator of elements in Chrono Trigger. As the Frozen Flame is a piece of Lavos, he has a complete perspective of the infinite timelines of the multiverse, perceiving every time period and alternate selves there are. Lavos has shown himself being capable of looking throughout time and perfectly replicating attacks and futuristic technology before it even existed. Knew about Crono and co.’s plan to defeat him and counter acted with a back up plan)

Standard Tactics:

Lavos mere awakening causes people to be temporally BFR’d or to fight it in it’s own pocket dimension. It will also attempt to absorb or unify with the opponent, if it’s incapable of doing this, Lavos will survey through all time points and attempt to mimic bosses that it feel will be a threat to the opponent, if this fails it will proceed with it’s own moveset, spamming rains of destruction along with various status effect moves, if it’s defeated one will need to go within it to fight it’s body, who spams explosion moves, if the body is defeated it must fight the core who will pull one through time attempting to absorb them in it with them and strengthening it’s stats through the different time periods. If defeated it will go to the darkness beyond time where it will either return or fuse with Schala becoming the Dream Devourer

Dream Devourer instantly opens up with devouring dreams from an alternate dimension and will attempt to absorb the opponent. If attacked it passively drains MP or HP. It also wishes to destroy all of existence so it will lead with complete destruction.

The Time Devourer will have the Dragon God fight for it first where the Dragon God will be using all of it’s elements and swapping between different timelines and changing it’s innate element, if it’s defeated then one must journey beyond time and space to face Time Devourer Lavos where he will use the strongest element attacks such as Omega Green. The Time Devourer’s wish is to also erase everything so it will lead with this too.

Weaknesses: The people he mimics also share their weaknesses. If all of the multiverse is conceptually merged then Lavos will be defeated once and for all incapable of coming back.

Key: Lavos | Dream Devourer | Time Devourer | Absorbing the Chrono Cross
