When the Mammon Machine was activated, it began absorbing too much power.

There, they see their mother's ultimate plan come to fruition. The Prophet throws them in the Gate and forces Schala to place a barrier on it.Īfter the Mountain of Woe falls into the ocean, Dalton arrives and takes Janus and Schala to the Ocean Palace. They show the Prophet and Schala the Gate they came through. He then asks the party how they arrived in the Antiquity. Schala asks him not to do anything to them, so he concedes but tells Schala that she must cooperate with him. However, the Prophet then enters the room, saying that he needs to put an end to them. Schala then frees them and tells them to flee the palace and save the Guru of Life, as he was sent to the Mountain of Woe for opposing Queen Zeal's plans. Schala says not to worry and that they may be able to help Melchior. Schala says that she wants to help them, though Janus thinks that they will not be of any use and does not want her to get in trouble if she lets them go. Schala and Janus enter, and Janus comments on how they are idiots. Schala is then summoned by the Queen, so she leaves Janus and asks for his forgiveness.Ĭrono and party are imprisoned. Although she looks like her, she is not the same inside. Hearing this, Janus becomes angry and says she is not their mother anymore. She says she wants to remain with him, but their mother has other plans for her. If something should happen to him, it would keep him safe. She then gives him an amulet, saying that it contains her prayers. Janus mentions the " black winds", and Schala says that she feels "the foreboding" as well, though she tells him not to worry. He tells them that the " black wind howls" and that one among them will perish, and then walks away from them. When Crono's party arrive in Zeal, they visit Enhasa, where they meet Janus. He is an introverted child, his only true friends being his sister and his pet cat, Alfador. Unlike his sister, Schala, he was more like his mother in that he was cold and distant. Prince Janus was born sometime around 12,000 B.C. As the Prophet, Magus wears a hood over his head that is attached to his cloak that has orange trimming around the brim and collar. Magus wears a cloak (completely purple on the sprite, while the official artwork shows him wearing a red cloak), dark magenta leggings, gauntlets, boots, and a chest plate, which all appear to be made of leather. Janus wears a light purple shawl and pointed boots of the same color. Janus also has very little muscle, while Magus is shown in his official artwork with rather formidable muscle mass. Janus is about the same height as the various Imps in the game, whereas Magus is the tallest playable character. Magus' eyes are red, most likely because red eyes denote that a person is evil. In this FMV, it is clear that Janus has bright green eyes. Janus also has rounded ears, while Magus has pointed ears. Both Magus and Janus share light blue hair Janus, however, has shorter hair than Magus.

#Chrono compendium robo skin#
Magus and Janus look very different at first glance where Magus has pale gray skin, Janus has skin typical of the other inhabitants of both the Kingdom of Zeal and average characters in other times. He is portrayed as brooding, potent, gloomy, and indomitably ambitious, especially in regards to finding his sister, Schala. Magus was originally Janus ( ジャキ, Jaki ?, "Jaki" in the Japanese version), the young prince of Zeal in Antiquity (12,000 BC). Magus ( 魔王, Maō ?, "Maoh" in the Japanese version, literally "demon king") is a character in Chrono Trigger, and is the dark mage waging war against the Kingdom of Guardia in 600 A.D. " If history is to change, let it change! If the world is to be destroyed, so be it! If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh!" - Magus Unknown, possibly late 20s to mid 30s (Magus) Official artwork of Magus by Akira Toriyama.
