Black Waltz 1

Black Waltz No. 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.

Battle
At the start of the battle, Black Waltz No. 1 summons a Sealion to assist in defeating Zidane. If the Sealion is killed before the Black Waltz, another will be summoned to take its place, so it is best to defeat the Black Waltz first. The Black Waltz's only attacks are Blizzard and Fire. Because Zidane is fighting alone, it is easy for Trance to activate, and his Dyne attacks can kill the Black Waltz with ease.

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.
