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.

Marle is the direct descendant of [[Queen Leene]], ruler in the year [[600 A.D.]], which Marle and her friends visit in [[Chrono Trigger]]. Lucca realizes that this time period's kingdom has mistaken Marle for her kidnapped ancestor, thus putting off the recovery effort for her ancestor and creating a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandfather_paradox grandfather paradox]. After [[Queen Leene|Leene]] is rescued, [[Frog]] mentions that Marle bears an "uncanny" resemblence 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.
