Mog the moogle is the one charged by the goddess Materia to recruit warriors with the Light in order to close the Torsions springing up across the land. Described as a spirit found in the Void, Mog is not native to any particular ''Final Fantasy'' world. As the one who can sense the Light within others, and with an ability to detect the Torsions, Mog is the one who decides where the party travels for their next challenge.
