最终幻想IX
Vivi Ornitier was created for the video game "Final Fantasy IX". His name in English was originally Vivi Ornitier in the "Final Fantasy IX" manual, though this changed in the Greatest Hits re-release. Vivi is kind and of pure heart, yet is also obedient, quiet, indecisive, and introverted. He is a Black Mage, a class of magic user who employs fire, ice, lightning, and other elements into their magic. His character design was meant to strike a balance between realism and a comic-like style, while taking inspiration from the style employed for the characters in the film "The Dark Crystal". When designing "Final Fantasy IX", the designers made a point of designing a part of the world around Vivi due to him being a key character of the story. An early scene in "Final Fantasy IX" features various characters posing as members of a play; while he does not participate in the final version, a previous version has him participating after coaxed by Zidane Tribal in order to avoid being arrested.
