Main Characters

In order of appearance.

Crono

Silent but deadly.

Crono is the classic mute protagonist, a simple avatar for the player. He uses swords, and learns lightning magic once he reaches the End of Time. You'll be forced to have him in your party up until Chapter 24, The Time Egg but during the last portion of the game based around sidequests you can choose whomever you want.

Lucca

Brains over brawn!

The brainy genius, you'll have the option to keep her in your party for most of the game. She uses guns which rely on her hit rating, and fire magic.

Marle

Beautiful, kind and buff too!

One of four characters in the game who don't give their real name: Marle is actually Princess Nadia, heir of Guardia castle. She dislikes being couped up in the Castle and following royal mannerisms; a tomboy of sorts. Her weapon of choice is the bow (it looks more like a crossbow); the damage dealt depends on the attack power of the bow and her Hit stat.

Frog

A knightly chap!

Also known as Glenn, a medieval swordsfrog who's essential in the fight against Magus. He'll learn water magic.

Robo

Defender of the future.

Also known as R66-Y or Prometheus, Robo is a resident of the apocalyptic future whose weapons can have a physical or shadow element.

Ayla

One of the first prehistoric women, Ayla holds her own against men of her time (and all time for that matter). Ayla uses entirely physical attacks since she predates the existence of magic on the planet.

Overcome with greed by the already lustrous power of the Enchanted Ones, she succumbs to the will of Lavos. Under his influence, she focuses on extracting power from him to undergo more development within the kingdom. She led her people and ordered the Earthbound Ones to build the Ocean Palace, a mighty temple to aid in harnessing the massive energy source that is Lavos.

Schala

Daughter to Queen Zeal and Janus' older sister, Schala is a sympathetic royal who helps aid in the rebellion against her mother.
