Black Mage Village

The Black Mage Village is a location on the Outer Continent in Final Fantasy IX.

The Black Mage Village is populated by Black Mages who suddenly became self-aware and desired a life of peace. They are all referred to by their serial number, such as Black Mage No. 288. The Black Mages lead a totally secluded life in their village, which was concealed by the Dead Forest. When Zidane and his party, including the Black Mage Vivi, find the village, the Black Mages are initially cold towards them, refusing to tell them the way to Kuja's Desert Palace. After Vivi and the party become friendlier with the Mages, Mr. 288 tells Vivi that the palace is on the eastern side of the Outer Continent. After the party returns from Terra, the displaced Genomes make their home in the Black Mage Village. The Black Mages try to teach them the ways of Gaia despite their own naivety. The Mages also raise a chocobo, which they name, "Bobby Corwen."
