General Information[edit]

Chrono Cross[edit]

Full Name: Gogh
Age: Indeterminate, 30's
Species: Human
Home Area: Termina

Gogh is the father of Van, and his nature radically differs across the dimensions. In the Home World dimension, he is a struggling artist who did not cave in to his artistic and creative desires early on, instead working to achieve excellence and scrapping together a living with only bare essentials. He even created his own style of paint, El Nido Blue, which supposedly imparted the scent of the sea when used. His artful career caused him to regret not being able to give Van a comfortable life; his son became pennywise as a result. Nonetheless, Gogh was in touch with the important things in life, such as the love given to him by his wife and the poignancy of her death. In Another World, Gogh's life progressed differently; instead of paint, he decided he should become a wealthy trader in order to impart an easy life for his son. He bought all manners of artful items for his son to use, though he was often away on business trips; this estranged their relationship, and his constant craving for money made him become out of touch with his son and former wife. He worried constantly about his finances, and sought to curry favor with higher powers, even dealing with Lynx at one point. Regardless, Van from Home World showed him the sea shell his wife once gave him; this seemed to plant a seed of feeling within the man.
