Chloe

"All those years... Life is strange, isn't it? (それらすべての年... 人生はおかしいですね?)"

- Chloe

Chloe (クロエ) is one of Keiichi Haven's primary allies in Rising Beginnings and Advanced Battle. This is the original depiction of Chloe, as created by Alex Guy.

She appears prominently in Regional Crusaders, Stardust Frontier, and Stardust Requiem, and briefly in Thunder Shock, Ocean Blue, and Final Endings.

Chloe is introduced as a cunning and quirky delinquent living in the woods with Keiichi and Blaine. She initially chose not to join Keiichi upon hearing of his journey to become the best, however, she and Blaine later joined him in his campaign against the Chaos Agency to find redemption. Following this conflict, Chloe and her friends were hired by Division X, where she met and fell in love with agent Xander Summers.

A few years after the fall of Division X, Chloe distanced herself from close relationships due to Xander's death, but was later kidnapped by Dakera's forces. She was freed by Azure and Crystal and evacuated Kingdom Island before its destruction, bearing witness to Blaine's death. In the years following this incident, she had become a famed marine biologist.

Resolving to free Azure from his petrified state, she joined Kyotaro's group to find Keiichi and receive his help, later participating in the new Grand Championship. Several decades later, Chloe briefly returned to pass her magic to Axel and Serena during Azazel's reign of terror.

Ocean Blue (2022)
Sometime between the fall of Division X and the defeat of Vessel and Shirogane, Chloe and Blaine were both kidnapped by Dakera and his forces, and frozen in ice in Kingdom Island. At the end of the arc, they are both unfrozen by Azure and Crystal and they evacuate the island, with Chloe leaving to find Keiichi.

Final Endings (2011)
According to Alex Guy, by this arc, all of Chloe's friends and allies, save for Keiichi, have died of natural causes and, as later revealed, due to Chloe and Keiichi's healing factor, the two are still alive.

During the war on Azazel, Serena and Axel become stranded in the Easton region, where they run into Chloe. She reminisces on her adventures with Keiichi, Azure, Blaine, Russell, and Xander, and states that she wishes that Keiichi was still around, unaware that he is alive. To combat the threat at hand, Chloe teaches Axel and Serena magic.

Rewind
Main article: Rewind

Chloe's Meta Ability, Rewind, can restore objects (and organisms) to a previous state in their history. It is able to repair damage and heal injuries. It can also revert an item to its components (e.g. a wooden table into lumber).

With this, Chloe may perform a range of interesting feats; including trapping (parts of) an enemy by restoring pieces of a broken object around it; and tracking, accomplished by restoring something such as a torn piece of clothing, which seeks to reattach itself to the original article.

However, this ability is not without limits: Chloe can only restore state, not life, hence a lifeless body would still remain dead even after being "fixed" by Rewind's power. Also, the healing power cannot be used on Chloe himself, or strictly speaking, anything that can be considered a part of his current self, body, or even his own clothes. Her ability grows during Advanced Battle, allowing her to undue or bring back injuries or modifications from the present or the past.
