==Story== | |||
[[File:Marle.gif|28px|left]] Bored of royal life in the castle, she slips out to the [[Millennial Fair]] held at [[Leene Square]] in [[Truce]]. Here, she meets [[Crono]] and tries out [[Lucca]]'s [[Telepod]], which reacts with her [[pendant]] and creates a time warp (called a [[Gate]]), sending her to [[600 AD]] and kicking off the events of the game. She is characterized as vivacious, optimistic and strong-willed. Marle uses a [[Bow|crossbow]] as her weapon; when she gains the ability to use [[magic]], she learns to use the "Ice" elemental and very powerful healing spells. Later in the game, an optional sidestory occurs that fleshes out the troubles between Marle and her father. | |||
[[Image:Nadia.gif|36px|left|Marle in her Princess dress]]The [[PlayStation]] version of [[Chrono Trigger]] includes an FMV scene at the end that shows [[Crono]] and Marle getting married. While a second FMV depicts the fall of Guardia Kingdom in the year 1005 A.D., it is unknown what happened to Marle during this event, although if [[Doan]] is her descendant, she probably survived. In the sequel, [[Chrono Cross]], Marle makes an appearance alongside Crono and [[Lucca]] as apparitions of themselves as ghost children. | |||

After [[Queen Leene|Leene]] is rescued, [[Frog]] mentions that Marle bears an "uncanny" resemblance to her. | ||

Marle has the best healing techs out of any character in the game. She can easily [[cure]] to full health and bring characters back to life with full health too. She also has a nice array of good double and triple [[techs]] too. Unfortunately, she can't take much damage or dish out much outside of techs. | Marle has the best healing techs out of any character in the game.
