Crono is a fatherless teenager from the town of Truce and the protagonist of Chrono Trigger. He meets Marle at the Millennial Fair, and begins his adventure by attempting to rescue her after she is sent to 600 A.D. by the Super Dimension Warp. This leads to the Arris Dome, in which he, Marle, and Lucca discover the Apocalypse and pledge to prevent it. He is later venerated as a hero for saving Zenan Bridge and assisting in the defeat of Magus, and is revered by Ayla for his strength. In the Ocean Palace, Crono is killed while facing off against Lavos; his death is later prevented by his friends, who use a Time Egg (the first Chrono Trigger) supplied by Gaspar to remove him from the Palace and substitute a Clone. After the defeat of Lavos and the end of his quest, it is heavily suggested that Crono falls in love with Marle and the two are married; this is depicted outright in the ending cutscene of the PSX version.

Chrono Cross
Crono's fate is implied to in Radius's statement about the Kingdom of Guardia no longer being peaceful. Like Marle, he is very likely alive as referenced in Lucca's letter about her friends. A version of him appears as one of the Ghost Children three times. The first time, he states that the future in which Earth is ruined by Lavos is going to be brought back into being due to the interference of Serge, who caused the Home World and Another World split. The second time is in an illusory space at Terra Tower, in which Belthasar enlightens Serge's party about some of the affairs of the Dragons. Crono's final appearance in CC comes immediately before the final battle of the game. Crono tells Serge that Wazuki was turned into Lynx by FATE, and along with his fellow "ghosts," the other two members of the original time-traveling group, implores Serge to destroy Lavos once and for all.
Radical Dreamers
Crono is thought to be Lucca's dead friend who shall receive the Frozen Flame as a grave adornment. Since Kid holds the Chrono Trigger Time Egg, Crono may not have been revived at the Ocean Palace.
