Black Wind
General Information
Chrono Trigger
The Black Wind is a negative, pervasive aura that arises when someone is near death or a catastrophic event is about to occur. Schala and Magus can acutely sense it; both knew something destructive was about to occur while in Zeal, and Magus felt it a few times further while traveling with Crono.
Chrono Cross
Members: Norris
The Black Wind is an elite group operating within the Porre military, which uses it for spying or combat in important situations. Little is known of its size or full spectrum of duty, other than that gifted and dignified soldiers are often invited to serve. Norris is probably the youngest leader, having risen through the ranks of the military sharply and illustriously. The origin of the unit's name is similarly a mystery; one theory postulates that perhaps Magus's speeches to the Mystics mentioned a fearsome black wind, and the Porre unit took this name in order to exude intimidation.
Name Origin
From the Arabic 'huayra yana', which is the wind of ashes that comes when someone is dying.
