Spekkio refers to himself as the "Master of War". When the party first meets him, he tells them that he has seen many battles from the End of Time. He tells the party that many years before they were born there existed a kingdom where magic was everywhere and where anyone could use it. However, people began to abuse their power over the years. Eventually, it became so bad that only wizards were allowed to use magic. He goes on to say that the party has determination and that magic only needs power of the heart and inner strength. He says that magic is divided into four types: [[Lightning]], [[Fire]], [[Water]], and [[Shadow]]. He tells them that [[Crono]] is Lightning, [[Marle]] is Ice, and [[Lucca]] is Fire. He then tells them all to think magic and then, starting from the entrance to his room, run clockwise along the walls three times. They do is, and then Spekkio grants them their magic powers.

Later, when [[Frog]] comes to see Spekkio, he is granted Water magic. [[Ayla]] cannot be taught magic due to her existing before magic was discovered, and [[Robo]] cannot be taught magic because he is not a living thing. [[Magus]] does not need to be taught magic as he already knows a great deal about Shadow magic as he was originally alive when magic existed.

A character named Spekkio also appears in [[Chrono Cross]] but its believed that he has no relation to this Spekkio.
 


'Spekkio' is a phonetic spelling of the Italian word 'specchio' (meaning that they are spelled differently, but are pronounced the same).  'Specchio' means 'Mirror' in Italian, which is perfectly descriptive of Spekkio's role in Chrono Trigger.  He is a reflection of the party's current power level; a mirror.  It is from this that Spekkio got his name.
