Full Name: Irrelevant

The Entity, named such by the party during the Fiona's Forest Sidequest, is the mysterious being behind the machinations of the quest to save the world. According to their speculation, this Entity is reliving the unpleasant memories of its past, which results in the creation of the Gates to certain eras. Lavos is said to figure hugely in the life of this being. After this meeting adjourns and the members go to sleep, Lucca awakes to find a mysterious, Red Gate in the forest. This allows her the opportunity to prevent Lara from losing her legs in 990 A.D., which can be interpreted as assistance from the Entity. At the Moonlight Parade, Lucca mentions that the Entity is probably at rest now that Lavos is defeated. Beyond these tidbits, no other mention of the Entity is offered. This, unfortunately, has resulted in long debate over its identity; arguing has subsided in recent years due to the general consensus that the planet is the one sending Crono on his quest. However, evidence still exists for other candidates, and some still vie their debates with others.

The Entity is most certainly not the player, however. While this classification may seem appealing at first, since the player is controllin the party's actions, one must ask him or herself: did I program the Gates into the game?

Theory and Analysis

The full list of candidates and arguments can be found in the Article Identity of the Entity.
