{{nihongo|'''Frog'''|カエル|Kaeru|"Kaeru" in the Japanese version}} is a knight from the [[Middle Ages]] in {{CT}}. His real name is '''Glenn'''. He was presumably a squire under [[Cyrus]], a "Knight of the Square Table." (This pun only exists in the SNES/PS version.) Glenn had a notably close, although platonic, friendship with [[Queen Leene]]. He later witnessed Cyrus's death at the hands of [[Magus]], and shortly afterward, was transformed into an anthropomorphic frog by the dark mage. Frog dedicates his life to protecting [[Queen Leene]] and vows to avenge Cyrus by killing Magus. Blaming himself for failing to be strong, Frog is depicted as chivalric but mired in regret over the past. He is the true bearer of the [[Masamune]], an ancient sword whose offensive capabilities against magic users is Magus's major weakness. Frog can later put Cyrus' ghost to rest, regaining his courage and clearing his conscience, and he has the opportunity to either defeat or ally himself with Magus. Frog wields a broadsword and can learn "[[Water]]" magic once he meets [[Spekkio]]; like [[Marle]], he also features a few healing techs. | {{nihongo|'''Frog'''|カエル|Kaeru|"Kaeru" in the Japanese version}} is a knight from the [[Middle Ages]] in {{CT}}.

In the end, Glenn came to Guardia to serve as Cyrus' squire. He journeyed with Cyrus on many adventures, including a battle the [[Toad King]] which yielded the retrieval of the [[Hero's Badge]]. Glenn and [[Leene]] became close friends, the young queen always fearing for his safety. | In the end, Glenn came to Guardia to serve as Cyrus' squire.

Frog wanted no more to do with the Masamune, the badge, or even trying to be a hero. All he could think of was how he was nothing like Cyrus. | Frog wanted no more to do with the Masamune, the badge, or even trying to be a hero. All he could think of was how he was nothing like Cyrus. | ||

Recovering the Hero's Badge from a terrified Tata as well as the shards of the Masamune, Crono and company confront him, saying that he is the only one who can wield the Masamune and defeat Magus. At first, he is unwilling to help them, citing his own weakness. They then discover the hilt of the blade, which leads them to [[Melchior]]. When the sword is reforged, they return to Frog's hideout and ask him to help them defeat Magus once and for all. | Recovering the Hero's Badge from a terrified Tata as well as the shards of the Masamune, Crono and company confront him, saying that he is the only one who can wield the Masamune and defeat Magus.
