Chron is a Time Sweeper that made a significant contribution to the Time Factory's efforts during the Big Crystal incident in Blinx 2: Masters of Time and Space. He is one of the team leaders comprising the backup team that was sent to collect information along with Blinx during the invasion by the Tom Tom imposters.

Appearence

Chron has light yellow fur and yellow eyes. Unlike the main Time Sweeper supporting cast, his ears are folded much like a Scottish Fold cat. His rounded eyes give Chron a more youthful appearance, fitting with Chron's status as a young rookie Sweeper. He wears a two-toned orange jacket with red-orange sleeves, blue pants, blue lens goggles with black metal and white gloves and shoes.

Personality

Chron is the rookie among the main supporting Time Sweeper cast. Despite the enthusiasm he displays in his work, he often expresses strong frustration in response to resistance. Upon his arrival in Woodstone, he communicates that he's at a loss for what to do with his team, and the later rejection of his request for backup is met with strong complaints. Learning of the Time Goddesses' involvement in the Big Crystal incident prompts him to exclaim that success is impossible, though this doesn't prevent him from volunteering himself for the battle at World A-000.

Role

Chron's team explored Woodstone for the majority of the Big Crystal incident, finding a tablet indicating the existence of a "key that can unlock the mysteries of the Big Crystal," though a considerable amount of time passed before the key in question (a lithograph) was located. The deciphering of the lithograph at the Time Factory revealed the involvement of the Goddesses in the disruption of time and predicted that World A000 would be the landing site of the Goddesses' scissors, meant to destroy all worlds. Chron volunteered to be sent to World A000, earning the praise of the CEO, but the Time Sweeper Protagonist's team was sent in his place.

Name Meaning

Chron, a word-forming element meaning "time," from the Latinized form of Greek khrono-. 'Chron' is pronounced as in "chronology". Chron is written as クロン in katakana.
