[nikfrozty]

First Tsurugi have 5 different swords, are there definite name for each one of them?? Also did the motor Cloud got from Shinra Fenrir?? And why did he name it Fenrir??

nah, the motorcycle from that point in the game wasn't the Fenrir, i believe the fenrir was obtained after the original game. as for the naming, Fenrir is the name of a powerful wolf/dog in norse mythology. so he probably just wanted to give it a cool name, and Cerberus was already taken.

Is that so?? Well I like how they come up with names. I also like Griever from FF8.

first tsurugi actually is made of 6 swords, all with names....

The big base sword is called apocalypse, the others i'm kinda fuzzy on which is which, but some of the names include avenger, vendetta, ascalon, sidewinder and one other..

Wow Cloud uses that sword?? In real life I'll even have to practice combining those 5 swords. Thanks for the info Timu Sumisu.

[Jaitsu]

oh, if you need a comparison of motorcycles, if you look closely, you'll see the one he uses near the beginning is of completely different make (its more like harley davidson) while fenrir is like a suped up armored susuki

[nikfrozty]

Well I thought it was Fenrir he uses only low poly made so it does not have the same designs with fenrir in AC but I guess it isn't fenrir since he lives it in Midgar and goes to the worldmap without it.

Hate to say it, but those are all names created by the fandom. Not official. The sword as a whole has never even had a name for it, and calling it "First Tsurug"? Yeah.... Due to a misunderstanding of a transcription of Tetsuya Nomura's words in the DVD commentary, the fully assembled form came to be called First Tsurugi.

So that means there isn't any official name for his sword?? But I guess they're called Fusion Swords. What fansite was the fan names made from?? I'd like to see their site.

No clue as to what area of the fandom first coined the names for the swords. I used to be a member at the adventchildren.net forums, (now I reside at thelifestream.net) and I recall seeing a few names tossed around, but no idea if they were "created" there.

[Timu Sumisu]

ah thanks for the correction. Maybe i saw it there too, i dont rmmbr offhand, just rmmbr the names from way back. despite that, they're decent names

[nikfrozty]

Yeah they're good enough that I actually thought its their true names.
