Powers and Abilities:

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Weapon Mastery, Electricity Manipulation, Holy Manipulation, Afterimage Creation, Light Manipulation, Air Manipulation, Resurrection (Only applicable to fallen allies, and not to himself), Non-Physical Interaction (Magical attacks and special techniques are capable of harming Shadows, which are stated to be ghosts invulnerable to attacks from regular weapons, and the TotalChaos, which are inhabitants of the Temporal Vortex, a lower-dimensional plane described as lacking substance entirely. Capable of interacting with the Dream Devourer, who resides in the depths of the Darkness Beyond Time as an unborn, nullified entity, at the very end of the post-game dungeons). Resistance to Electricity Manipulation / Light Manipulation / Holy Manipulation, Fire Manipulation (Unfazed by being set on fire during his double techniques with Lucca), Absorption (Survived being fed to the Mammon Machine, which should have assimilated him into Lavos), Space-Time Manipulation (Fought against, and defeated Lavos, standing unaffected by his constant distortions of the fabric of spacetime during the final battle, which Robo states occur due to the energies he emits naturally placing strain in its fabric. Unbothered by the Dimensional Vortex, which is stated to be a place where there is no stability of spacetime whatsoever), Dream Manipulation, Conceptual Manipulation (Type 1), Memory Manipulation, Mind Manipulation and Void Manipulation (Can survive Lavos' ultimate magical attack, Dreamreaver, as well as endure the Dream Devourer subsuming dreams into the nothingness of the Darkness Beyond Time, also consuming thoughts and memories alongside them), as well as possibly most of Lavos' offensive abilities (Upon becoming aware of his defeat at the hands of Crono's party in the far future, Lavos seemingly concluded that there was no way to directly defeat them in spite of his overwhelmingly larger repertoire of abilities, choosing instead to save himself by indirectly changing history in order to create a branched timeline where the Day of Lavos went on uninterrupted)

Attack Potency: Universe level+ (Fought against a greatly empowered Queen Zeal within the Black Omen, and went on to fight and defeat all of Lavos' three forms alongside the other party members. Became significantly more powerful after defeating and merging with his shadow-copy in the Dimensional Vortex, awakening his latent powers as a result)

  • Vigil Hat: Has a defense of 36 and protects Crono from all negative status ailments.
