Although Lucca is mentioned before Marle, she appears in the game after Marle
joins your party. Lucca is Crono's best friend and a skilled inventor despite
her inventions often going awry. Lucca's newest invention, the 'Telepod' is the
reason Crono went to the Millennial Fair, and, although appearing in the game
only briefly, is one of the most important plot devices. The Telepod reacts
with Marle's pendant and causes Marle to go back in time, beginning the chain
of events which lead to the final battle with Lavos. Lucca uses a gun to fight
and has an affinity with the fire element.
The actual meaning of the word Lucca is unclear. There is an Italian city named
Lucca that has links with various famous writers of literature including Dante
and Machiavelli. However, this doesn't seem to be very logical, as, unlike the
character, the city of Lucca is more affiliated with the arts than technology.
It is probable that Lucca simply resembles the pronunciation of the Japanese
name.
