The Diablo (also known as Diablos in the SNES/PS version) is an enemy in Chrono Trigger. First appearing in Manolia Cathedral in the Middle Ages, non-offensive Diablo are encountered in Medina of the Present, worshiping a statue of Magus, and later Ozzie, in the central square of the city. Diablo appear as demonoid creatures with pale skin and violet-colored wings. They wear menacing scowls upon their faces. Before engaging in battle, the Diablo sometimes "spin" into action, twirling around on one foot. Often, Naga, Underling, Viper, and Vampire Bats accompany them in battle.

Etymology

"Diablo" means "devil" in Spanish. Judging by the demonic (or even gargoyle-like) appearance of this enemy, the name is fitting.
