Vivis Biography

Name: Vivi Ornitier - Black mage

Age: 9

Brief random summary of Vivi in game  --------- When i play the game again ill get some screenshots.

At the start of the game Vivi is in the town of Alexandria and wishes to see the play "I want to be your canary" but soon finds out he has a fake ticket and resorts to sneaking into the open air play from rooftop. He then flies from Alexandria with Zidane & co in an airship but gets shot down and lands in a forest.

Vivi is mainly very quiet and shy through the game although Kuja is the character who gets the most emotion out of Vivi and says things such as you're "a puppet" and a "toy" for destruction and war.

When Vivi first reaches Dali he is taunted by some children. many people may just think they are doing this because Vivi is quite odd looking. but later it is clear that the cause of this is deeper. Dali is a factory for making black mages which are unaware and drones. and the children were probably scared of him maybe due to their parents telling them black mages were killers or something similar. later vivi is vaptured by the factory workers because they think he is an escaped black mage. but they realise Vivi is different as they say he looks different from the others. Later Zidane walks near a pipe which is probably a chimney or vent and hears Vivi crying and soon comes to Vivis rescue along with Dagger/Garnet.

when vivi escapes from his box he becomes very distraught when he sees the black mages under Dali being born from eggs.

When Vivi discovers the Black mage village (Download song), the story starts to focus more on Vivi and the origin of the black mages. And he soon  finds that black mages have a very short lifespan of around 2 years but Kuja explains because Vivi was a prototype it resulted in him living longer than ordinary mages. Vivi is said to be aware and different in size to the other black mages as he was the prototype and is different in many ways. he also seems to be the most powerful mage in the game as he defeats the black waltzes.

Vivi also  has a mind of his own and is much more aware of societies morals, values and norms (although the black mages in the village are trying their best to conform to this :) ), whereas even the aware black mages are nowhere as near as experienced as Vivi as they partake tasks such as selling goods to people and renting rooms very warily and seem to be unsure about what they are doing. for example when going to an inn the black mage innkeeper is unsure about how to treat customers. The innkeeper also has a gramophone and has no idea what it does. Vivi & co soon tell him and he is amazed.

Vivi Q & A

Q :What does Vivi look like without his hat on?

A :Your guess is as good as mine.

Q :What does Vivi's Body look like under his clothes?

A :I have no idea whatsoever, my guess is that its similar to his face. kind of ghostly black.

Q : Why is Vivi's middle area really pointy in this picture, I mean seriously whats going on really?

A : Ffs you ask me this question all the time. I don't know why its like that, I know what you want me to say but Im not going to, this is a childrens site, so stop asking!

Q :Where did Vivi come from?

A :How Vivi was born seems to be from one of the machines that ordinary black mages come from and he seems to have been adopted at an early age by a  Qu (A large clownish race obsessed with food, the same species as Quina) he refers to as grandpa. Kuja explains to him that he's merely a puppet and a prototype of the black mage soldiers which is why he's younger and looks different, although this is probably the truth the idea is still challenged by some. 

Q :What is a black mage?

A :Vivi is a black mage, which means he is a mage which specialises in offensive magic such as fire and death. which is ironic as Vivi is one of the most peaceful and non violent characters in the game. Black mages typically have the same appearance in final fantasy ix but they differ in others final fantasy games. For example Lulu in final fantasy x, is a black mage yet she looks nothing like Vivi.

<< visually quite a large difference between them

Q :How does Vivi meet Zidane and co

A :Well basically Vivi is being chased by some guards and sets Garnets/daggers dress on fire by accident and then Zidane becomes intrigued by him and calls him a "powerful little guy/mage" and asks Vivi to join him.

Q :Why doesn't Vivi choose to stay and live with the black mages, wouldn't that be better for him?

A : Vivi considers this option but decides to carry on with the group as Vivi is after the "truth" and seems to want to know more information about himself and the black mages.

Q: Who is that Rat kid Vivi is with at the start of the game?

A: He is called puck. A runaway heir to the throne of Burmecia who doesn't want to be king for some reason and just wants to explore.
