Crono
is the main character of Chrono Trigger. You must always have Crono at
the head of your party until a certain point toward the end of the game.
He lives with his mom in Truce Village circa 1000 AD. Most people would
agree that he's about 17 years old, but - I dunno. Use your imagination.
Crono does not talk once in the entire game, but he's NOT a mute.. just keep
that in mind. Crono is a master swordsman, and uses a variety of Katanas
throughout his adventure.
Lucca
is Crono's life-long best friend, although she would never admit how
important he is to her. She and her dad share a great love for science
and technology and are constantly making bizarre contraptions no one had ever
even dreamed before. Lucca totes a gun that she either made or bought,
and a hammer which she uses when enemies are too near to blast.
Marle
- her real name being Princess Nadia - ran into Crono by mistake at the
Millennial Fair. And since then, they became inseparable (well, they
were in my game). She is very bright, cheery, positive thinking,
and a real brat if you get her mad. Marle totes a variety of crossbows
which she uses to spike enemies from a distance or whack them with the bow's
butt when enemies are close.
Frog
once went by the name Glenn, a wimpy marshmallow of a swordsman and the very
best friend of Guardia's highest-ranked knight, Cyrus. Upon the event in
which the evil sorcerer Magus killed Cyrus and transformed Glenn into his new
form, he became a strong, iron-willed warrior. Being a master swordsman,
Frog also uses swords, but of the broad, double-sided type.
Robo,
the warm-hearted robot is a strong and courageous fighter. He was born
Prometheus and his mission was to live with humans to study them as a species.
He was created with the ability to learn, feel, think, and make a jolly good
cup of Java when he's told so - and he minds his manners, too. Being as
strong as he is, Robo uses his fists as weapons, and he upgrades his attack
power by attaching different arms onto himself.
Ayla
is the brave warrior chief of her Ioka Village in pre-historic times.
She is also one of Marle's great ancestors. Ayla is the strongest
character in the game; her Power level is maxed-out on a far earlier level
than any of her colleagues. The funny thing is she doesn't use any
weapons, just her bare fist - which go through some changes as her levels
pass.
Magus
is one of the more mysterious characters of the game, even though you end
up learning more about him that you do Crono! His real name is Janus and
he was sent to 600 AD by Lavos from 12,000 BC as a child. Ozzie, one of
his henchmen, brought him up and made the evil sorcerer we all know and
love... to play as. Magus fights with a Scythe, a long rod with a
razor-sharp curved blade on the end, usually used for cutting long grass.
His Shadow magic attacks are also very powerful.
