Black Mage

Template:Character-infobox Black Mage is a generic character from the Final Fantasy series of games, appearing in Mario Hoops 3-on-3, which was developed by Square Enix, who also created the Final Fantasy series of games. He is one of several characters from Final Fantasy, the others being Ninja, White Mage, Moogle, and Cactuar. He has a magical staff which he only takes out when using his Special Shot. His quick dunks are the fastest of any character in the game. His classification as a Tricky player means he makes very swift moves to dodge tackles.

He is unlocked by winning a Gold Trophy in the Rainbow Cup.

The Black Mage, along with the other Final Fantasy characters return in the Wii follow-up, Mario Sports Mix. He is unlocked by beating Star Cup 4 times in any game. He can also be unlocked by clearing a specific mission on the Mushroom Cup. His best stat is technique, while his other stats are fairly low.

The player can also unlock an alternate outfit for the Black Mage by clearing a certain mission on the Star Cup. The alternate outfit depicts the Black Mage wearing a red outfit and hat, with a belt being added onto the hat.
