Kid, who appeared in the modern era as an infant and was cared for by Lucca, is in actuality Schala, though unaged and sent thousands of years forward in time. After the fall of Zeal, Schala felt tremendous guilt and sorrow over her actions; the Frozen Flame picked up on these emotions and recreated her as Kid in later history. She spent much of her early life in the care of Lucca, who often played a song for her and sometimes talked about the Flame and a deceased friend (probably Crono; Lucca noted that she wanted the Flame to be placed near his grave). She also gave Kid the Chrono Trigger Time Egg. When Kid reached ten years old, Lynx rose to power at Viper Manor and subsequently murdered Lucca to presumably acquire her Time Egg; this shattered Kid's innocence. Kid furiously and suicidally set out to storm Viper Manor and exact revenge; she was saved from certain death by Magil, a mysterious, caped man who took her under his care. The two led a wandering lifestyle henceforth, eventually becoming thieves; Kid kept a dagger for the trade. Kid's new practice and the death of Lucca jaded her somewhat, leading to a brash and direct personality with sarcastic humor and a rough accent. She then met Serge; during their travels she developed a slight liking for him, though this did not emerge until the events of Le Trésor Interdit, in which Magil, Kid, and Serge infiltrated Viper Manor. Kid vowed to get revenge on Lynx, though the other Radical Dreamers cautioned her that the Frozen Flame was the real point of the mission. At the final confrontation with Lynx, Magil finally revealed her true nature to her as she used the Chrono Trigger in desperation. After time returned to normal, she fled with Magil, yelling to Serge her excitement at her newfound identity and its importance.
It is unknown if she eventually returned to live with Serge; the opening comments in his diary seem to suggest that Kid was present when he recorded the events of that night, but he may have simply been wistfully addressing Kid as if she were there. Interestingly, in the scenario The Shadow Realm and the Goddess of Death, Serge and Kid eventually live together and set out on new adventures. Sadly, this scenario is unique in that Magil does not survive the events of the night, suggesting that Kid and Serge may only come to be together if he is absent.
Kid is a thief, of course. Not even seventeen years old, already she's widely renowned as a top professional. To make matters worse, she's cute, devilishly stylish, and has a sparkling personality. And boy, can she cook... if you ask her, that is. Well, to be completely honest, she has her share of problems as well. She likes to think of herself as a kind of Robin Hood, stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, but that's just not the case. At times her sharp tongue can get the best of her, viciously lashing out at anyone who stands in her way. She exaggerates every other word, and sometimes lies outright... and as for listening to other people, well, forget it. When it comes to money, well, I've never met anyone greedier in my life. Her relentless pursuit of wealth is ironic, considering she's a nomad, like me... I don't know, maybe I'm being too hard on her. She has her good points, too. She can really shine sometimes, when she wants to... "Not bad, Serge... not bad at all," Kid says, catching my eye. A few moments pass, and... she's still staring at me, smiling. Oh man, what do I do? Should I say something? "...Uhh, heh..." I look away after a nervous moment, but full of glee. I can never handle this kind of thing -- those baby blues of hers get me every time...
