'''André''' is the main antagonist of ''[[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc]]''. He is a [[Black Lum]], the result of a [[Red Lum]] that had been frightened. He is also the Black Lum who created his army by converting Red Lums into Black Lums. He spends the first half of the game inside [[Globox|Globox's]] stomach after he had swallowed him. Later, he had joined [[Reflux]], fallen champion of the Knaaren, he hopes of gaining the power of [[Leptys]] and continuing to wreak havoc in Rayman's World.

==Biography==

===''Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc''===
André was originally just a normal Red Lum living in the Fairy Council. However, one peaceful night, when Rayman and Globox were napping as usual, Rayman's hands strangely unattached themselves from Rayman and wandered off, showing a shadow puppet show to André. The Red Lum was frightened so much he transformed into a Black Lum that desired world domination.

He started by transforming most of the Red Lums into Black Lums like himself. The Black Lums went around stealing the fur off of animals and using it to weave (rather badly patched) costumes for themselves, becoming the Hoodlum army. André himself had a costume for himself, becoming a Hoodmonger type of Hoodlum.

After becoming a Hoodlum, André pursued a frightened Murfy throughout the Council. Murfy found Rayman and Globox sleeping at a tree, and tried to wake them up as André came closer and closer. Eventually, Globox ended up running away in fear with Rayman's hands, and Murfy grabbed Rayman by the hair and flew away with him.

While travelling through the Fairy Council, Rayman and Murfy soon found André again, and Murfy distracted him while Rayman beat him up. Back to being a Black Lum again, André explained his plans to take over the world via the Heart of the World and flew away. Rayman and Murfy followed him to try and get there first. However, once André was almost there, he flew at full speed towards the entrance, but accidentally ended up flying into Globox's mouth.

At the Heart of the World, the King of the Grand Minimus told Rayman to take Globox to the Doctor's in Clearleaf Forest, who would remove the swallowed André from Globox's stomach. As they travelled there, André started becoming addicted to [[plum juice]], forcing Globox, who was allergic to the stuff, to get drunk on it. Soon, they arrived at the Doctor Otto's. Despite Otto's bizarre musical method of trying to remove the Black Lum, André simply moved to Globox's lungs. So Otto sent them to Doctor Romeo in the Land of the Livid Dead.

Romeo also tried out a musical method, but André only moved to Globox's (particularly small) brain. Soon, Rayman, Globox and André ended up at Doctor Gonzo's, where all three of the Doctor's successfully removed André from Globox's stomach (it is revealed in Hoodlums' Revenge that some of André's spirit still remained within Globox). However, André flew away and gathered up an army of Black Lums, who made an allegiance with the former Knaaren-champion Reflux, who Rayman had defeated on the way to Gonzo's. Reflux wanted revenge on Rayman for defeating him, and he stole his king's scepter in order to gain great power.

Later on, André watched as Reflux used the scepter to summon the power of the Leptys, which transformed him into a more powerful monster than he already was. Reflux fought Rayman in the Tower of the Leptys, growing massive and sprouting wings in between the battle. However, Rayman, with the added help of Globox and the Armaguiddon machine, killed Reflux and used his grimace ability to transform André back into a Red Lum, therefore saving the world. In the cinematic of the end, André rebecomes a Black Lum.

===A Second Attempt===
Even though André had been extracted from Globox's stomach, some of his evil spirit still remained. He reawakened the Hoodlum army to once again attempt to take over the world, and slowly started taking possession of Globox's body as as Rayman and Globox fought back against the Hoodlum army. When Rayman defeated a Fire Monster, André took full control over Globox and announced to Rayman that he was to takeover the world. However, Rayman defeated the Reflux Clone that the Hoodlums had created to try and kill Rayman and André's spirit deserted Globox.

==Appearance==
As a Black Lum, André is basically a small ball of black and messy fluff. He has massive bulging eyes and a long tongue that tends to stick out at times. He has small, triangular ears protruding from his head that stick upwards slightly and fly-like wings. Unlike other Black Lums, he has arms, of which the palms of the hands are fur-less.

==Personality==
André is rude and mean, shown to say cruel remarks about Rayman and Globox throughout his appearances in the games. He also has a thirst for chaos and, like all bad guys, dreams of taking over the world. He is very insane and manic, and even shown to be at cowardly at the end of Rayman 3 once Rayman is about to convert him back into a Red Lum.

The Desert of the Knaaren

87.100.41.198:

[[image:DOTKscreen.JPG|thumb|The Desert of the Knaaren is a desert world, and crossing it requires use of the tunnels. The tunnels are constantly guarded by the Knaaren.]]

{{stub}}

The desert of the Knaaren is a harsh, scorching plain of sand, dotted by rocky outcrops and yawning chasms. The huge dinosaur-like skeletons which lie on the sand resemble those seen in [[the Cave of Bad Dreams]] in [[Rayman 2]]. The desert looks hellish at first sight. However, beneath the barren, lifeless surface is an enormous tunnel and cave system that delves deep into the rocky under-layers. This is where the native species of the world, [[Knaaren]], dwell. They guard their domain fiercely and effectively, constantly pacing the many passages.

-'''As a level'''-

The '''Desert of the Knaaren''' is the fifth level of the game [[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc]]. In this world, [[André]] is expelled from [[Globox]] and André tempts [[Reflux]] to steal the scepter of [[Gumsi]], the child king of the [[Knaaren]], to gain the power of the [[Leptys]] in his quest for power and dominance.

The Fairy Council

2009-08-27T17:15:10Z

87.100.41.198: /* Trivia */

'''The Fairy Council''' is a location in ''[[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc]]'' and alluded to in ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]''. The Fairy Council world is homologous to the [[Woods of Light]] from ''Rayman 2'', though the second half may also be associated with the [[Fairy Glade]] and [[Minisaurus Plains]] from ''Rayman 2'' and ''Revolution'' respectively. It is a tutorial level in which again, [[Murfy]] is [[Rayman (character)|Rayman]]'s guide and introduces the player to the game's controls. The [[Heart of the World]], which was also previously mentioned in ''Rayman 2'', is located there.

[[File:TheFairyCouncil.jpg|thumb|The Fairy Council in [[Rayman 3]].]]

==Description==
Its name a misnomer, the Fairy Council is notably void of [[Fairy|fairies]]; in fact, it is confirmed in ''Revolution'' that at least [[Ly the Fairy|one fairy]] doesn't live in the council at all. Instead, the Fairy Council is actually the home of the [[Ludiv|Ludivs]] and the capital of the [[Teensie]] royalty. It is a very important place, as the [[Heart of the World]] is hidden there.

Surrounded by a tranquil forest, the ominous Fairy Council is mysterious and majestic. The interior glows with a blue aura and various halls have reflective walls or floors. Ludivs reside within the council walls in a similar fashion to ants. Deep within the Fairy Council lies the [[Grand Minimus]]' throne room and the [[Heart of the World]].

As alluded to in ''Rayman 2'', the Fairy Council is a sort of central meeting place when trouble strikes the [[Glade of Dreams]].

==As a Level==
===Seeking Globox===
The Fairy Council begins as [[Murfy]] picks up [[Rayman (character)|Rayman]] and flees from the approaching [[Hoodlum|Hoodlums]]. After escaping the Hoodlums, Rayman and Murfy set out to find [[Globox]], who has Rayman's hands. As they go, Murfy reads to Rayman the ''Rayman 3'' [[Manual|manual]] and in doing so teaches the player the controls and how to use Combo Mode. Eventually, Rayman catches up to Globox and helps him out of a barrel. Rayman gets his hands back and the trio approaches the Fairy Council. Unfortunately, Hoodlums arrive and storm the Fairy Council before Rayman has a chance to stop them.

===The Ludiv Nest===
Globox hurries ahead, leaving Rayman and Murfy to seek him out once more. Inside the Fairy Council, Rayman is taught more complex maneuvers (similar to the [[Fairy Glade]]/[[Minisaurus Plains]] in ''Rayman 2'') and battles against his first Hoodlums. Eventually, [[Andre]] makes his plan known and rushes off in search of the Heart of the World after fighting with a Ludiv.

As Rayman delves further into the cavernous sanctum, the council begins to fall apart. Amid the cave-ins and collapses, Rayman and Murfy encounter Globox; unfortunately, their reunion is again interrupted by Andre. Andre accidentally flies into Globox, and the two are sent flying into the Grand Minimus' throne room.

Inside the throne room, Rayman encounters many disco-loving [[Teensie|Teensies]], and on the far side of the room is the Grand Minimus and Globox. The Grand Minimus explains that it is too dangerous to keep Globox in the Council (as he swallowed Andre); Rayman must seek out the [[Otto|doctor]] in the [[Clearleaf Forest]].

==Characters==
===Good Guys===
*[[Globox]]
*[[Murfy]]
*Multiple [[Ludiv|Ludivs]] and [[Teensie|Teensies]]
*[[Grand Minimus]]
*[[Manual]]

===Enemies===
*[[Andre]]
*Various [[Hoodlum|Hoodlums]]

==Level Details==
===''Rayman 3''===
'''The Fairy Council''' => [[Clearleaf Forest]]

*Level Type: Forest/Special
*Number of Cages: None
*Teensie Type: [[Crowned Teensie|Crowned]]
*Number of Stages: 2

==Trivia==
*Every caged species from the PS version of ''Rayman 2'' makes an appearance in the Fairy Council, except for the [[Deny|Denys]].
*The music at the end of the Fairy Council is similar to the music of the American 60's (and let think at a music with the [[Funkyboard]]).
*A reference to Murfy's role in the then-yet to be made ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]'' is made in the Fairy Council; however, Murfy never made it into the game.
