Final Fantasy VI Skills
SwdTech
Cyan is a master swordsman, and this shows in his SwdTech Skill. When SwdTech is selected from the battle menu, a bar slowly counts from 1 to 8. The technique executed depends on the number highlighted when the bar is stopped. The skill can only be used when equipped with a SwdTech-enhanced blade.
