[edit] Appearances

[edit] Final Fantasy VI

Main article: Mog (Final Fantasy VI)

Mog is a secret playable character in Final Fantasy VI. During the course of the game, Mog appears twice: first in the Narshe Caves during the battle to protect Terra, then again in the Scenario Selection screen when the party splits up. It is only later when he can be recruited as a full character, which can be done in either the World of Balance or World of Ruin. He is a Dancer that uses Spears.

[edit] Final Fantasy VII

Due to a misromantization, all Moogles in Final Fantasy VII are called "Mogs". In the later Compilation of Final Fantasy VII, this error was corrected.

Mog

Mog is one of Eiko Carol's pet moogles from Madain Sari. She has a thicker fur collar and an orange pom-pom that sets her apart from other moogles. Mog is initially cowardly and stays with Eiko, but is revealed to be the Holy elemental Eidolon Madeen after reaching trance when Zorn and Thorn endanger Eiko. To show that she will always be by Eiko's side, Mog leaves behind her Ribbon, which allows Eiko to summon her. Guardian Mog is an ability that Eiko can learn from the synthesized add-on Madain's Ring - it clears Eiko of all negative status effects at the end of a battle. Mog is also a Tetra Master card.

[edit] Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles

Mog accompanies the player in the Single Player Mode, carrying the Crystal Chalice for the player, allowing them to be free to fight. Mog is first encountered at the start of the game when the player encounters the caravan from Alfitaria.

[edit] Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time

Mog makes a cameo in Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time in River Belle, stating that he'll repair the house that once stood in the area, likely referencing the Moogle House that appeared in River Belle Path in the original Crystal Chronicles.

[edit] Chocobo Series

Main article: Mog (Chocobo Series)

Mog is a recurring character in the Chocobo Series. He is a greedy, scheming character, always trying to steal the limelight from Chocobo, but his plans are foiled by dumb luck. In Chocobo Tales for Wii, Mog also appears as Dueler X and Romance X or something, and helps you throughout the game.

[edit] Trivia

  • In all French translations of the Final Fantasy series, the Moogle race as a whole is called "Mog".
  • In the video game Kingdom Hearts II, the Synthesizing Moogle in Hollow Bastion is named Mog. It is, with the one at Twilight Town, the only Moogle in the game not to appear as a hologram.
