Magus' red staff
« on: April 27, 2006, 12:52:32 pm »
When the team confronts Lavos in the Ocean Palace, and Magus faces him, what is that red staff he uses. Or is it just a bad scythe sprite with no blade.

Yes it does appear to be his scythe which is interupted due to some sort of feeback drain on Magus's powers when he struck Lavos.

I've always assumed that it's the newly formed Masamune that he's using. He thinks that the Masamune's power should hurt Lavos. He is wrong.

The Red Knife has already turned into the Masamune sword at that point. It shouldn't be red...

Wait, wasn't that sword that Cyrus used against the naga-ette red? But that wasn't the Masamune, was it...? Man, it's been too long since I've played Chrono Trigger now...!

Anything, you say?

His power was drained, and to kill Lavos(his highest goal) it's the easiest way to work with the party.

Are you familiar with the phrase "The enemy of my enemy is my friend"? That's basically it. Magus' sole goal, since being ejected from Zeal, has been to kill Lavos. Everything else was just an ends to that means, including joining up with the party.

I am sure that deep down inside Magus, there is still some good or reasoning to be of him. I wondered if he appeared in CC to protect and guide over Kid, that he did change to better then need to find Schala. That's what Schala would have wanted. Or was Magus/Magil simply going to use party members to get to Schala and destroy the TD if he was on the journey with Serge...

Or maybe Magus is fully Good and maybe somewhere deep down inside of him there is bad :lee:
