General Information

The Lavos Timeline is the world before Chrono Trigger occured, and is void of any of Crono's actions and influences.

Chronology

*** by a point means that a footnote is provided at the end of the timeline.
'-' means that an event succeeds everything above it, while a series of
'*'s mean that it is unknown which event occurred before the other.
'-U-' means that this event is dated according to Ultimania, a flawed guide for
Chrono Cross written in Japan that may nonetheless have some credibility.

=>Pre-65000000 B.C.

*Nu mysteriously exist.
*Two sentient races evolve -- Reptites and early humans.
*Ioka and Laruba are established; the Tyrano Lair is also built.
*Reptites begin to wage war on humans for control of the planet.
-Kino appears on Mystic Mountain.

=>65000000 B.C.

-Nu reside at the Hunting Grounds.
-The Ioka clan chiefly fights the Reptites; the Laruba clan hides.
-Laruba village may or may have not been burned to the ground by the Reptites.
-Lavos lands on the planet.
-A piece of Lavos splinters off during the crash; this comes to be known as the
Frozen Flame.
-Lavos is named by Ayla. La means fire, Vos means big.
-Lavos burrows and begins absorbing the planet's energy.

=>65000000 B.C. to 3000000 B.C.

-An Ice Age sets in due to the impact of Lavos.
-Reptites die from the Ice Age; humans retreat underground.

=>3000000 B.C.

-Early humans come into contact with the Frozen Flame, sparking evolution and
giving humanity the power of magic.
-Some humans can use magic unaided by external power sources; others can use
magic with assistance, while some are wholly incapable of using magic.

=>3000000 B.C. to 12000 B.C.

-Humans discover the Sun Stone, allowing magic use by non-innates and serving
as a huge source of power.
-Zeal is created and islands are raised to the sky as dwellings for the magic
using Enlightened Ones.
-Those totally incapable of using magic stay behind as the Earthbound.
-Schala is born.
-Janus is born.
-King Zeal dies, and Queen Zeal succeeds the throne.
-The Mammon Machine is built out of Dreamstone by the Gurus, and possibly uses
the Frozen Flame to extract energy from Lavos.
-A pendant used to control the Mammon Machine and work with sealed doors is
forged by the Gurus.
-Janus hides his magic power to avoid having to work with the new machine.
-Schala is desginated controller of the Mammon Machine; if the Frozen Flame is
inside, she is possibly its Arbiter.
-Queen Zeal becomes cold and aloof.
-The Sun Stone is discontinued as Zeal's primary power source.
*Belthasar designs the Ocean Palace and Blackbird.
*Magic tabs are invented by a resident of Zeal living in Kajar.
-Dalton is placed in charge of the completion of the Ocean Palace.
-Slave labor by the Earthbound is used at the Ocean Palace.

=>12000 B.C.

*Melchior forges the Masamune from Dreamstone and his dreams.
*Melchior creates a special magic seed and gives it to a woman.
*The Gurus learn of the Mammon Machine's possibility for evil.
*Schala presumably gives Janus her amulet.
*The Mammon Machine is moved to the Ocean Palace.
-Queen Zeal activates the Mammon Machine at the Ocean Palace, which awakens
Lavos.
-Lavos (or more likely, the Entity) creates gates that send Belthasar to
2300 A.D., Melchior to 1000 A.D., Gaspar to the End of Time, and Janus to
600 A.D.
-Queen Zeal and Schala are presumably killed, since Lavos does not become a
Time Devourer in the original timeline. However, Schala may have also used
her power to warp to safety with her mother. Also, a prototype Epoch may
have followed Belthasar to 2300 A.D., since Dalton reveals that Belthasar
was working on such a vehicle in Zeal.
-Lavos, awakened by the Ocean Palace, obliterates Zeal.
-The Sun Palace sinks in the sea with the Sun Stone inside.

*The magic seed is presumably planted.

*A beast called Yakra haunts the forest west of Guardia, and occupies a
cathedral when it is built there.

by the Mystics and becomes a powerful mage, also taking the name Magus.
