Mog ( Final Fantasy VI ) Mog is a playable character in " Final Fantasy VI " . A moogle Dancer / Geomancer , he also acts as one of the game ' s tutorial presenters with Kappa the Imp , and is the character used to select a playable party during the scenario the team splits up . He lives deep in the Narshe Mines . Mog is fondly remembered as the first playable moogle in the " Final Fantasy " series , as well as the first moogle to speak human language , a discovery that shocks the party when he thanks them for saving him . Profile . Appearance . Mog is an eleven - year - old moogle with the traditional moogle look : white fur ( though his portrait sprite shows it as a cream color ) , feline ears and small wings . Personality . Mog is more intelligent than the other moogles , and acts as their leader . He is the only moogle to speak the human language , while the rest just say " Kupo " or variations of it . He is bossy , seen when he tells Umaro to join the party . He uses loose speech and slang terms , such as referring to Ramuh as " that old psycho " in the SNES release . Story . Mog and his party of moogles help Locke Cole defend a fallen Terra Branford from the Narshe guards in the mines . Mog can be found in the moogle home in the mines up until after the Magitek Research Facility is destroyed — he stands against the back wall and says something subtly different from the other moogles wandering the cave when approached . Ramuh appears to Mog in a series of dreams and orders him to help the Returners , the rebel faction opposing the Gestahlian Empire Locke and the others are members of . Through these dreams Mog learns to speak the human language , and decides to join the party once he gets the chance . If the party follows the Lone Wolf the Pickpocket to the area where the frozen esper Valigarmanda is , Lone Wolf holds Mog hostage . Mog breaks free , throwing both himself and Lone Wolf to the cliff ' s edge , and the party must choose between rescuing Mog or Lone Wolf . If Mog is rescued , he reveals his ability to speak , and joins the party . If Lone Wolf is rescued , the party obtains a Gold Hairpin and Mog can only be recruited in the World of Ruin . One year after the end of the world , Mog has returned to the moogle cave in the Narshe Mines , but he is the only moogle left . When the party finds him , he rejoins and tells them to find Umaro , who he claims would be helpless without him . After the party finds and beats Umaro in battle , Mog bosses him around and orders the yeti to join the party . If one inspects the spot Mog was standing on when he was found , Molulu ' s Charm will be found . Molulu was one of the ten moogles present in Mog ' s party , implying she was Mog ' s girlfriend , and that relic is Mog ' s memory left of her . Before the final battle , Mog proclaims his motivation to live is his " new pals " . Mog and Edgar escape Kefka ' s Tower together , but the floor collapses and Mog is left hanging over a pit . Edgar uses a crane to pull him to safety , but Mog is irritated when Edgar grabs him by his pom - pom , grumbling that he is no stuffed toy . Gameplay . Mog first appears along with the ten moogles , and later can be recruited as a party member on two occasions . In the World of Balance , he is recruited in Narshe by chasing Lone Wolf with Mog hostage to a ledge , and saving Mog at the end . In the World of Ruin , he is recruited when encountered in the Narshe Mines . Mog ' s job is a Moogle , but he functions as a Dancer and a Geomancer . His special ability is Dance , in which he performs a dance and executes one of four random commands from it . Each dance is based on an environment which affects its attacks , and new dances are learned when Mog fights in different environments . Mog ' s magical stats are high , while his physical stats are low , other than his very high Defense . He can equip spears , making him ideal for the Dragoon Boots as the Jump it provides can take advantage of additional damage from spears . He can equip lightweight armor , and most notably the Snow Scarf , the most powerful defensive gear . Mog ' s Desperation Attack is Moogle Rush that deals magical damage to one enemy . Creation and development . A pre - release version of the game had a different way for Mog to join the party in the World of Ruin . There was supposed to be an extra area near Narshe called " the Moogle Hole " , which had 20 moogles running around . The player could ( re - ) recruit Mog if they could find him among all the other moogles . The developers felt this minigame was too annoying and so Mog is considerably easier to find in the game ' s final version ( he just stands alone in the moogle cave in the mines ) . Musical themes . Mog ' s theme is named for himself , and is the theme played in the Moogle Cave . The theme recurs throughout the series as the general moogle theme , and is mixed into the ending . Other appearances . Mog has made appearances in the following games in the " Final Fantasy " series : Other media . Games . In " Secret of Evermore " , Mog appears among the crowd of spectators that includes other " Final Fantasy VI " characters at the gladiator battle of Antiqua . He appears alongside Terra , Locke , Relm , Strago , and Umaro .
