Mother Brain

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.
