Schala, one of the most tragic and prominent characters of the Chrono series, is the gentle, meekly beautiful princess of Zeal, and the last wavy blue-haired woman to ever carry that title. Born into royalty, she was immediately identified as having a penchant for magic; some speculated her ability surpassed Queen Zeal's. When the Mammon Machine was constructed during her raising, she was given a special Pendant to control it and other Sealed Doors with. She was later blessed with the birth of her brother, Janus, and though they were said to have not gotten along well, Schala deeply cared for her younger sibling and looked out for him regularly. Perhaps only she and Melchior knew of his true power as well, for Janus expressed feeling the Black Wind to her at times. Schala also visited the Algetty, where she entertained the children there and convened with the Elder; the people of that place later remarked that only Schala treated them as equals. After Crono's team was captured in her era, she mercifully released them, in hope that they would in turn free Melchior from Mt. Woe. Unfortunately, The Prophet forced her to seal the Gate from which they arrived.
After Melchior was freed, and the party regrouped among the Eathbound, Schala noted that she had refused to help bring the Ocean Palace to full speed. Dalton soon kidnapped her, threatening to kill her if action were taken against him. There, she was forced to use the Pendant to unlock the Mammon Machine's full potential, which caused the Ocean Palace Incident. Aghast at the wild energies and dark auras erupting from the Machine, she attempted to stop it, but was shocked into submission by her mother. In her last gesture, she transported Magus and the remaining party members away after Crono was killed in his attempt to save her and stop Lavos. This was her final appearance; she remained behind amid the collapsing palace. The only solace concerning her demise came at the ending of Chrono Trigger, when Magus noted that he would search for Schala in 12000 B.C. without fail. After defeating Lavos, it would become his life's objective.
One of the unexplained mysteries of Chrono Trigger is what occurred regarding Schala in the Lavos Timeline, during the original Ocean Palace Incident. Since her pendant was passed down to Marle, it is generally accepted that Schala was able to transport herself and possibly her mother out of the Palace before its collapse (her mother's absence tidily explaining why the Black Omen never originally arose).
