{{nihongo|'''{{PAGENAME}}'''|ピエール|, Pierre}} is a character in {{CC}}. He is the graceful knight-in-training who aims to become a noble and courageous hero. Pierre speaks with an interlanguage called {{w|Franglais}}, which is a blend of English and French, similar to [[Harle]]. In his vocabulary of French words, he most often uses the words ''moi'' and ''oui''. While Harle uses more complex French phrases. 

==Story==
While his origins are unclear, at some point in his life he decided to become a hero. He drew inspiration from heroic appearances, and pampered his own looks with the finest of care. Though he appeared dashing and romantic as a result, he still lacked the hardened mettle and battle experience of a true warrior. This did not stop him from acquiring the legendary [[Hero's Medal]] and seeking to enlist in whatever cause was worthy of his benevolent assistance. This errant way of life brought him to [[El Nido]], where he flippantly fancied himself as the perfect heir to the vacant position of fourth Deva in the [[Acacia Dragoons]]. He rented out [[Karsh]]'s former room in [[Termina]], and worked on his charm and handsome image in preparation to enter [[Viper Manor]]. While preparing, he lost the Hero's Medal; he met [[Serge]] soon after, who retrieved the medal for him from John. Pierre noted that Serge would do well for his image by serving as thorns to his illustrious rose; he joined the party and attempted to enter Viper Manor through the front gate. He succeeded battling his way through, and raided the manor with the others. While on the mission, he acquired the [[Hero's Shield]] from the treasure room.

He continued to accompany Serge after that night, though the events of [[Fort Dragonia]] drove him back to Termina. He waited there until Serge returned from the [[Dead Sea]]; Serge carried with him the [[Prop Sword]], which immediately bedazzled Pierre upon sight. About this time, Pierre experienced a revelation concerning the true nature of a hero — that it did not lay in something like appearance or genealogical dignity, but in hard work, courage, and tenacity. He began training like John by running laps to improve his form; he also embraced the Prop Sword as his destined blade. It reacted to him by shining and imparted to him the ''[[SlapOfCyrus]]'', his ultimate technique that delivered a crushing blow worthy of the former Guardian knight [[Cyrus]]. With his new inner strength unlocked and growing, he set out with Serge to prove himself and test his bravery.

Pierre is also the central character in one of the endings of ''Chrono Cross''. He accompanies Solt and Peppor through Fort Dragonia to seek their revenge on behalf of General Viper. After making their way through the tower (with Pierre complaining about an upset tummy the entire time) the trio were never seen again.

==How to Recruit==
When in need of a guide to Viper Manor, show the Hero's Medal to Pierre in the back of [[Zappa]]'s Smithy in Termina ([[Another World]]). (Only if the Manor has not already been visited with another guide.)

==Strengths==
*Strong with Hero's Medal, Hero's Shield, and Hero's Blade (Prop Sword) equipped

==Weaknesses==
*Generally weak without the Hero's Medal, Hero's Shield, and Hero's Blade (Prop Sword) equipped

==Tech Skills==
*'''[[Medalsome]]''' - 3 Stars
*'''[[FoiledAgain]]''' - 15 Stars
*'''[[SlapOfCyrus]]''' - Show Pierre the [[Prop Sword]].

==Trivia==
*''Pierre'' is the French variant of the English name, ''Peter'', likely chosen to complement his "{{w|Franglais}}" speech mannerisms.
*Interestingly, when Pierre joins the party, a caption pops up saying "Pierre joined your partie!", which is not the correct use of the French word. In French ''partie'' means ''portion'', ''a part of'', or an actual ''party''. More accurate words to use would be ''groupe'', ''cercle'', or ''troup''. 
*[[Pierre (Chrono Trigger)|Pierre]] is also the name of the lawyer that defends [[Crono]] at Crono's trial in {{CT}}. It is unknown if there is a link between the two characters, but ''Chrono Cross's'' Pierre is closer to [[Tata]] in terms of his role in the story. 
*Pierre's Level 7 Tech Skill refers to the legendary hero, [[Cyrus]], whom [[Frog]] was once a squire of in ''Chrono Trigger''.
