So what is Vivi?
A muppet
A remote controlled doll
A remote controlled clown doll dressed up in wizard garb
Some other garbage like "He's human, how can you say these things about some pixels on a tv screen?"
So what is Vivi?
I'm going to go with some other garbage and then not explain myself.

He's a black mage. Duh.

A prototype black mage.
I have a signature now. Am I cool yet?
I think he is a prototype black mage a little depressed.
I think he was the failed muppet of a Black Mage by Jim Henson who abadoned him, because Vivi just couldn't catch on with all the fans of the original muppets, not to mention he was occasionally not getitng along with other charcters of the show with his occasional blasts of fire burning them in a vain attempt to get ahead in the show.
This space intentionally left blank.
Geez, I thought they explained this in the game. Kermit and Yoda teamed up to beat the crap out of Vivi, because Vivi flirted with Miss Piggie. Thus, Vivi ran from them, and left Jim Henson Studios. He journeyed for awhile, and then finally took the Yellow Submarine to FFIX land. Duh. They told you this after you went on [pointless sidequest #1]
Just for the gulible people out there, King Bahamuts post is not true. It's only a joke, so please don't ask how to do 'pointless sidequest #1'.
I think Vivi is a black mage, vertically challenged, with a major case of confusion. He's quite good in battle though, despite being timid. Which raises the question, if Vivi is so scared of things, how can he force himself to stand and fight when facedf with something like Ozma? He couldn't even handle a Prison Cage!
He's adorable. What more do you need to know?
Aren't the black mages, including Vivi, made out of mist, or did I just imagine that?
So yeah, he's just...compressed mist. *nods*
Vivi's a form of contructed life. He's alive, as much as anyone else, but he was produced from Mist (the essence of souls, like the Lifestream or Pyreflies) by Kuja. (SPOILER)Zidane, too, was made artificially; however, he's still a living, breathing, sentient being. Life is life, whether it's made in vitro or in vivo.
And here all this time I thought he was Orco.
You mean this guy?
I'm pretty sure Amano got some inspiration from the old He-Man cartoons when he designed the Black Mage.

(SPOILER)Garnet: Was it really you who persuaded my mother to start the war -
Kuja: - the war that threw the entire Mist Continent into chaos?
Vivi: And you made everyone... the black mages into instruments of war!?
Kuja: Oh, dear... The princess has such a little bloodthirsty little puppet. I don't have the power to do such a thing. I just gave them a little recipe. Begin with broth of Mist, add fermented souls, and boil... Then, pour genuine black magic into a mixing bowl and heat to -
Vivi: Stop it!
Kuja: I'm not done telling how to make soulless toys out of the dregs of souls!
Zidane: Dregs of souls? You mean Mist!?
Kuja: First, you don't want to listen, now you start asking questions? Oh, brother... But you're not ready yet!
