In ''Dissidia Final Fantasy Opera Omnia'', a moogle named {{ff|Mog (Opera Omina)|Mog}} appears as a non-playable character in the game's storyline. He is described to be an "ancient moogle" who acts as the guardian spirit of the world Materia and Spiritus created to allow their champions to rest after their battles in World B. One day, dimensional distortions known as {{ff|Torsion}}s appear, threatening the world's equilibrium and unleashing hordes of monsters across the lands. In order to restore the world's stability, Mog volunteers to recruit warriors who bear the light to close the Torsions before the world is destroyed. Initially appearing as a subordinate to Materia, it is later revealed that Mog is secretly working alongside Spiritus for unknown reasons. Over time, the warriors begin to question Mog's motives, sensing that they are being manipulated by him for some unknown agenda. | In ''Dissidia Final Fantasy Opera Omnia'', a moogle named {{ff|Mog (Opera Omina)|Mog}} appears as a non-playable character in the game's storyline.

Moogles generally share a uniform appearance. They are small, white creatures resembling plush toys, with large, spherical heads, small ears sprouting out of the sides of their heads, and stubby hand and feet that lack distinct digits. Their eyes are constantly narrowed into brown slits, giving the appearance of being closed despite having open eyes in the ''Final Fantasy'' series, and their noses are bulbous and pink. Moogles also sport tiny, purple wings like those of a bat on their backs and, perhaps their most distinctive traits, large, red, spherical "pom-poms" on attached to the tops of their heads by a thin, brown antenna. | |||
In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', the hologram for Mogtaro, the [[Timeless River]] moogle, appears in monochrome like everything else in that world, making him one of the few moogles to be visually distinctive. | |||
In ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', the only moogle to appear dresses in its own black cloak. Its ears are visible poking through the hood, as is its pom-pom. Its hood covers its eyes, and it seems to wear black gloves over its hands. | |||
