Bio
One of the most recognizable characters from the Super Nintendo game Chrono Trigger, Frog is an integral member of the game's time-traveling party of heroes.
Frog's first appearance is in 600 A.D., at the Cathedral south of Guardia Castle. When Crono and Lucca are caught off-guard by an attacking Mystic, Frog enters the scene to kill the fiend before it can inflict any serious damage. He says that, as a knight in the service of Queen Leene, he shares the time-travelers' intent to rescue Leene from her captors Yakra and his gang of Mystics. With that he joins the party.
Frog is, as his name implies, a frog — but the size of a small human. He is a picture of nobility, yet humble and honest. He speaks with characteristic syntax and diction akin to sixteenth-century English, which not even his contemporaries use. This adds to his stately style.
