{{nihongo|'''{{PAGENAME}}'''|マヨネー|, Mayonnai}} is a character in {{CT}}. He appears in [[Fiendlord's Keep]] in the [[Middle Ages]], where he is fought as a boss. Fighting alongside [[Super Slash]] and [[Ozzie]], he appears again in [[Ozzie's Fort]] as [[Diva Flea]]. Flea is a magician of renowned strength. In a [[New Game Plus]] of {{CC}}, [[Flea (Chrono Cross)|Flea]] is battled as a secret boss in the [[Bend of Time]] along with [[Ozzie (Chrono Cross)|Ozzie]] and [[Slash (Chrono Cross)|Slash]]. In this fight, Flea's gender symbol is male, although he sports pink hair and skirt. In both games, a secret item can be stolen from Flea. This item is [[Flea Bustier]], clearly a feminine garment. | |||

Entering Fiendlord's Keep in search of [[Magus]], [[Crono]], [[Frog]], and another encounter [[Flea?]] in the eastern corridor of the main lobby, after traversing several illusions of people the party members care for. Flea? floats into view as a yellow-skinned creature resembling the [[Juggler]], while a bat looks on. After defeating it, the bat flutters to the center of the room. The bat is Flea, and he then transforms into his true form, which contains a white cloak, a skirt, and pink, braided hair. During the dialogue, Frog denounces this magician's physical appearance as yet another illusion. As the battle ensues, the floor disappears, revealing a blue, starry expanse of sky beneath the red carpet of the room. | |||
Flea uses his charm to seduce [[Crono]] into attacking the two other party members, damaging all three. This attack will not work if Crono is unconscious. The charm attack consists of staring at Crono with a tender look which apparently makes Crono sufficiently enamored with him so that he attacks his friends. Flea [[counter]]s physical blows dealt to him with strong techs. Using [[Berserker]] helps avoid Flea's counters, as Flea does not register it as a regular attack. Additionally, the official ''Enemy Dictionary'' does not recognize that Flea casts [[Heart of Fire]] in battle, but he does. Flea also casts this tech in his [[Diva Flea]] form. | |||
==Etymology== | |||
Flea's name in the NA translation of the game comes from the bassist of the [[wikipedia:Red Hot Chili Peppers|Red Hot Chili Peppers]], [[wikipedia:Flea_(musician)|Michael Balzary]], who is renowned for "gender-bending". Flea's Japanese name is a pun on Mayonnaise, obviously another sexual pun. | |||
