Dark Chronicle PS2 is set 100 years after the events of Dark Cloud and follows the exploits of Maximilian, a 13-year-old boy with an amazing ability with mechanical gadgets. Rebelling against his wealthy father's wishes, Max becomes an apprentice at a repair shop in his hometown of Palm Brinks, where he constructs small inventions and machines in his spare time.

His adventure begins when a mysterious female time traveller is introduced into his life. Monica, a 15-year-old master swordswoman with magical powers, arrives in the village of Palm Brinks from the future, for reasons that become clear as the game progresses.
