Beach Bum: Difference between revisions

The blue-tinged skin, the floppy arms, the rotund body, and the lackadaisical frown all bear a striking resemble to [[Nu]]s, [[Fiend]]s encountered in prequel, {{CT}}. Unlike the Beam Bums, however, the Nu speaks coherently sentences, is trusted enough to run shops in [[Kajar]] and [[Last Village]], and serves as the guardian of the [[Forest Ruins|North Palace Ruins]]. Interestingly, the items sold by Nus are typically healing items; items stolen from or dropped by BeachBums are exclusively healing items as well.  

Additional theories stem from the Beach Bum inhabiting the chamber beneath [[Belthasar]]'s desk in the [[Viper Manor]] library. In ''Chrono Trigger'', the [[Guru of Reason]], Belthasar, built [[Epoch]] and stored it in a futuristic dome. He died several years before [[Crono]] investigates [[Keeper's Dome]] to retrieve the Epoch and finds a robotic Nu guarding the vessel. After Crono and his friends alter the timeline, Belthasar ends up in [[Termina]]. In a secret chamber beneath the sage's desk resides a Beach Bum guarding the remains of what is clearly the Epoch, assisting the idea that Beach Bums and Nus are variations of the same creature.
