A representative Black Mage appears as an unlockable playable character in the ''[[mariowiki:Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' sports games, ''[[Mario Hoops 3-on-3]]'' and ''[[Mario Sports Mix]]''. He is one of five playable ''Final Fantasy'' characters, the other four being [[Ninja]], [[White Mage]], [[Cactuar]], and [[Moogle]]. In both games, Black Mage's Japanese name and his name for the internal files is [[Croma|Kuroma]].
In ''Mario Hoops 3-on-3'', he is unlocked by winning a Gold Trophy in the Rainbow Tourney on the Normal difficulty. An alternate costume can also be unlocked by completing the Rainbow Tourney on the Hard difficulty. This alternate costume gives Black Mage a green and black color scheme. The player can also unlock an alternate outfit for Black Mage by either a certain mission on the Star Cup, clearing Star Road 6 times, or by using Black Mage 20 times in either Exhibition or Tournament modes. His special shot is [[Meteor Shot]].
In ''Mario Sports Mix'', Black Mage and the other four ''Final Fantasy'' characters return. Black Magic is unlocked by either clearing the hidden path in the Star Cup, Star Road, three times, winning the Star Cup four times, or by going on one of the two alternate paths during the Mushroom Cup replay and winning against Blue Toad. Black Mage's stats consist of high technique but low power and speed, all of which are shared with [[mariowiki:Waluigi|Waluigi]] and [[mariowiki:Princess Daisy|Princess Daisy]]. Unlike other characters, in hockey, the Black mage uses his magical instead of a hockey stick. Black Mage's alternate costume is based on the [[Red Mage]] because he is pictured wearing a red coat and hat, with black jeans and a belt being added onto the hat, along with a yellow scarf. The details on the coat are also different.

The details on the coat are also different.
His performances in the sports of ''Mario Sports Mix'' are as follows:
*In Basketball, Black Mage is a very slow dunker, but his layup move is unique in that he'll cast a spell, which makes the basketball almost always enter the basketball hoop.
*In Volleyball, Black Mage's fully charged shots move quite fast, while also curving. However, these shots can easily go out of bounds, which would make Black Mage lose points. He can also summon a thunderbolt to block volleyball shots, but the range is limited. Instead of diving, Black Mage can cast a fire spell to catch a volleyball that's out of reach. Black Mage's fire spell can range up to 3 meters (gamewise).
*In Dodgeball, Black Mage can repel dodgeball attacks by summoning a thunderbolt to block the dodgeball. However, this move is rendered useless if the dodgeball is equipped with an item. Instead of diving, Black Mage can cast a fire spell to bring the dodgeball to him. His full power throws are given an added curve, which can be used to throw off opponents.
*In Hockey, Black Mage can take down his opponents by striking them with a thunderbolt in his powerful check. If the opponent is faraway, he will cast a fire spell instead. While charging the ball he uses his dark magic to make a powerful shot. Since he has good technique stats, he can score easily by faking the goalies or doing combos.

Black Mages (黒魔道士 kuromadōshi, or くろまどうし in earlier games without kanji support) are one of the main and most iconic classes in the Final Fantasy series. They are characterized by their distinctive appearance of blue robes and a face shrouded in shadow beneath their pointed hat and their experience in Black Magic, which consists of various offensive, elemental spells. Some of the most common spells they use are Fire, Blizzard, and Thunder. Their high MP is balanced out by low physical attacks and HP. Black Mages often wield a rod or a staff. The first Black Mage of the series is the unnamed character from Final Fantasy.

Although the Black Mage class typically consists of humans, other species have taken on the class. In Final Fantasy Tactics Advance and Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift, Moogle and Nu Mou start off with Black Mage as an available class. In Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon, the class is available for Chocobo.
