Crys

The future doesn't belong to you! For those who have not completed games in the Xenoblade Chronicles series, this page contains spoilers regarding the plot. Discretion is advised.

Crys (Japanese: クリス, Kurisu) is a character in Xenoblade Chronicles 3.

Overview

Crys was the personal Off-seer instructor of Noah, who was in their tenth term who died and was later brought back as a Consul. 1000 years ago, a previous incarnation of Crys conceived the role of the Off-Seer and the Homecoming Ceremony with the aid of M.

During Side Story: Noah, Noah senses Crys' presence at Keves Castle and enters to retrieve the last shard of Origin Metal necessary to upgrade the Bravery. The party enters the Throne Room, encountering Crys, now Consul C (Japanese: シー, Shī), accompanied by the now known to be false Queen of Keves. Crys pretends to ally with the fake Queen, only to catch her unawares and destroy her for a final time before confronting the party himself, easily accomplishing a feat that the Ouroboros had previously struggled with. In battle, Crys first fights the party on foot, then hijacks the Queen's own Ferronis throne and pilots it in an identical manner to her Agnian counterpart. After his defeat, Crys shows his respect for Noah and reveals that he had no ill intentions, and Noah successfully retrieves the final piece of Origin metal.

Battle

Consul Crys is a Quest Exclusive Boss who is a Consul and is fought at level 60 in the Throne Room of Keves Castle during Side Story: Noah. He is then fought again afterwards while piloting a Ferronis at level 61.
