Characters of Chrono Trigger

Characters of Chrono Trigger

This is a comprehensive listing of notable characters from the video game "Chrono Trigger", a console role-playing game released in 1995 by Square Enix (then Squaresoft) for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System video game console. In keeping with the time travel theme of the game's storyline, the characters hail from different eras in history, ranging from prehistoric times to the post-apocalyptic future.

The character designs and concept art for the game were created by Taizo Inukai, Fumi Nakashima, Akira Toriyama, and Hiroshi Uchiyama. [ and nihongo|Leon|リオン|Rion, are twin beings of extreme power; fought separately at first, and then fused together. Originally from the Kingdom of Zeal in 12000 B.C., they dwell in the Denadoro Mountains in 600 A.D. and declare themselves protectors of the Masamune. In actuality, they compose the Masamune, which can be reforged by its original creator, the Guru Melchior. The Masamune sword is a recurring reference in many Square videogames to the Japanese swordsmith Masamune. Masa and Mune are known as "Grand" and "Leon" in the Japanese version creating the sword "Grandleon." They have a "big sister" named Doreen, who has a liking for dreams. This could possibly be because the three are said to be "the embodiment of Melchior's dreams."

nihongo|MotherBrain|マザーブレーン|Mazāburēn is the head computer of the R-Series manufacturing factory, she desires a utopia of robots after the apocalyptic "Day of Lavos". She does this by killing the remaining humans of Earth in a human processing plant known as Geno Dome. She is shut down permanently by Robo and whoever else is in the player's team.

nihongo|Nu|ヌゥ| are sleepy creatures that can be found in all time periods besides 1999 A.D. Nus are blue, with long, stringy arms, small eyes, and a small tuft of green hair. More Nus are found in 12,000 B.C. than in any other era, almost always sleeping. Within a secret room in Enhasa, a book entitled "The Mystery of Life," vol. 841, chapter 26, authored by Belthasar, states "All life begins with Nu and ends with Nu. This is the truth! This is my belief! ...At least for now." In 65,000,000 B.C. a Nu can be found in the Hunting Range when it rains. Also at the End of Time, the final form of Spekkio, the magic trainer and God of War, is a pink Nu. This Nu is one of the strongest enemies in the game. A Nu also appears as one of two central characters in the "Chrono Trigger" promotional anime "Dimensional Adventure Numa Monjar".

nihongo|Queen Leene|リーネ|Rīne is the queen of Guardia in 600 A.D. When Marle was transported to 600 A.D., she was mistaken for the Queen who had gone missing. This caused the search for Leene to be cancelled, which in turn caused Marle to not exist until history was changed back. She trusts in Frog as her loyal guardian.

nihongo|Queen Zeal|ジール|Jīru is a power-hungry queen from 12000 B.C. who attempted to control Lavos and siphon its energy for her own power. Although the Queen's devotion to her cause throughout the game borders on obsession and insanity, some dialogue in the game suggests that before she learned of Lavos' potential, she was actually a decent person. This is further reflected by Schala's undying daughterly love and by the gurus, who consider her a victim more than an enemy. As optional quest, the heroes can go with a large dungeon called the Black Omen where Zeal is fought at the end.

nihongo|Spekkio|スペッキオ|Supekkio is the self-proclaimed Master of War who lives at the End of Time. He introduces the art of Magic to Crono and his teammates and will happily fight them at any time to test their skills. Throughout the game, Spekkio grows in strength with the playable characters, changing his form as he does so, and will offer increasingly useful items when each form is beaten.

nihongo|Tata|タータ|Tāta|Tarta is a youth from 600 A.D. who accidentally stumbled upon Frog's Hero Medal when Frog, drunk, dropped it accidentally in a bar. He was mistakenly thought to be the legendary Hero who would defeat the Demon King Magus.

nihongo|Toma|トマ| is an adventurer of 600 A.D. searching for the legendary Rainbow Shell. Died on the March 6th 634 A.D. However his ghost shows up briefly in 1000 A.D. to tell them the location of the Rainbow Shell after the crew pours his soda pop on his grave (sake in the Japanese release). Before he departs to heaven, he claims that Crono and his crew are a "riot a minute", while in the Japanese release he says the sake he drinks with the crew is the best in the world.

nihongo|Yakra|ヤクラ|Yakura is a monster who devised a plot to kidnap Queen Leene in 600 A.D. and tried to take over the real Chancellor's position with a disguise. In 1000 A.D., the Chancellor is once again being impersonated by the 13th generation descendant of Yakra, bent on revenge and on taking over the kingdom in a bloodless coup through accusations and trial of the King.
