Magus
Magus is a playable character in Chrono Trigger. He is a wizard of evil who commanded hordes of monsters and battled time and time again with Guardia. In addition to being my favourite character of all time, Magus is quite balanced. He’s got power with his weapon and in times of need, he’s got even more powerful magic to back him up. Magus is of the Shadow element, a rare one indeed. He is able to cast the second level of Lightning, Fire and Ice. On top of that, he has some unique and powerful shadow magic. I think he is a great character, a mage with an attitude. He’s had a rough past and that personally I think builds character. Magus is definitely one to be remembered.
