The Swallow (つばめ tsubame?) is Crono's fourteenth-level katana in Chrono Trigger.

In the original SNES/PS/Steam versions of the game, there is only one in the entire game, found in the Forest Ruins (Present), where players have the option of choosing between this weapon or a Guardian Helm. The Swallow is the more recommended of the two since there are other Guardian Helms in the game and the Swallow is stronger than any of the katanas Crono can obtain between the events of first entering Antiquity to the Ocean Palace.

Acquiring the Swallow[edit | edit source]

After charging Marle's pendant at the Mammon Machine in Zeal (Antiquity), travel to the Forest Ruins in the Present and disable the prism barrier. A Nu should then appear and offer one of two items, an offensive and defensive item. The offensive item is the Swallow, while the defensive item is known as the Guardian Helm.

Name Origin[edit | edit source]

Serge, the protagonist of Chrono Cross, wields weapons called Swallows, which may be a reference to this weapon. The Japanese name of this weapon is tsubame however, which is the Japanese word for "Swallow" (the bird), whereas in the Japanese version of Chrono Cross, Serge's weapon simply goes by the English word "Swallow" (written in katakana).
