Black Waltz 1 is a boss from Final Fantasy IX. It catches up with the party on the trek through the Ice Cavern, and casts a Blizzard spell, which puts the entire party to sleep. Zidane is for some reason slightly resistant to this spell and confronts the Black Waltz alone. After the battle, Zorn and Thorn (as disembodied voices, and are then seen moments afterwards) warn Zidane that No. 2 and 3 will take No. 1's place.
