Other appearances
Origin
Cross Slash is a recurring attack in the Final Fantasy series, debuting as one of Cloud Strife's initial Limit Breaks in Final Fantasy VII. It is often a prominent ability in his moveset, making appearances in most games in which he appears. Its appearances beyond the first game are derived from Cloud's first three attack patterns when he attacks an enemy with a mastered Double Cut Materia, with Cloud tracing the kanji for "Misfortune" (凶 Kyou).
