| - Minis from Final Fantasy fanfiction can take one of two forms: mini-Neo Bahamuts or mini-Moogles. Both serve at the Official Fanfiction University of Final Fantasy. There doesn't appear to be any cause for a given misspelling to turn into one or the other. (However, as will soon be seen, some misspellings lend themselves to more easily-written mini-Moogle dialogue than others.) Mini-Moogles are white and furry animal-like beings with big noses and a big, red fluffy pom-pom on a stalk on their head. They have tiny bat wings that allow them to hover through the air. Some mini-Moogles at OFUFF carry miniaturized weapons typical of Final Fantasy games, sometimes of a kind wielded by their namesake. Mini-Moogles incorporate the misspelling that created them into their dialogue. For example, Areis (a typo of Aeris) reverses the e's and r's when she speaks: "Eulr onr of OFUFF, lady- don't touch thr Mooglrs if you valur you'er lifr!" Mini-Moogles apparently also have the gender of their namesake, when applicable. At OFUFF, they are frequently referred to just as "Moogles," which may indicate that they aren't significantly smaller than some canon Moogles. Mini-Moogles seem to be the most common mini type at OFUFF. They guard individual staff members, but despite their irritation towards bad fanwriters, they aren't nearly as aggressive as other mini types, especially compared to mini-Neo Bahamuts. The coordinator actually invited Thiranduil the mini-Balrog to OFUFF to train them to be more evil. (This duty has apparently ended, as Thiranduil now resides with PPC agents Diocletian and Suicide.) Mini-Neo Bahamuts are much more aggressive, and serve as response teams against fanbrat stampedes and other emergencies, directed by the OFU's head of security, Bahamut ZERO. They are small, black and red dragons with complex and oddly folded wings. They are flight capable, and can shoot a shrunken-down version of Giga Flare from their mouths.
