Helena Handbasket is a character from Rayman Origins. She is one of Betilla's sisters and resides in Mystical Pique.

Character description

Helena is referred to as the Mountain Nymph. She has mid-length blonde hair (noticeably the shortest of the family) and is one of only two nymphs in the family to wear a dress - a blue one, with furry trimmings at the top and bottom. Along with Betilla, she does not wear a hat made from an animal hide or skull, but what appears to be a waterdrop-shaped hat with the same furry trimming. Pieces of the same furry material is also worn around both her ankles and wrists.

In Rayman Origins

Helena is first encountered in the second area of Moseying the Mountain, the first level of Mystical Pique, imprisoned in the mouth of a Darktoon. When Rayman, Globox and the Teensies rescue her, she will give them the power to run up walls. In addition, freeing Helena earns the player a PlayStation Network trophy/Xbox LIVE Gamerscore achievement called Nymphs Rock!.

When Helena is rescued, she is then seen on the map of Mystical Pique before the players reach Way of the Electoons, which is a level consisting of an Electoon bridge. If the players gather enough Electoons, she will grant them access to this level.

When the players reach Riding the Storm, the first level of the Moody Clouds, Helena is seen as the only nymph to stay floating in the centre of the portal that leads to the Moody Clouds, and to chant a spell to open it once all of the Four Kings are defeated. Since there is no king that rules over her home world, she is the only nymph that does not meditate.

Trivia

  • Her name is derived from the phrase "hell in a handbasket".
  • She speaks with what sounds like a German accent.
