'''The Bog of Murk''', also known as '''the Umber Swamp''',<ref>Rayman3.com (via archive.org), ''Worlds'', https://web.archive.org/web/20030622082143/http://www.rayman3.com/us/worlds.php</ref> is the third of nine levels found in ''[[Rayman 3]]''. This level introduces the player to the [[Throttle Copter]], the last of the [[Laser-Washing Powder]] cans to be discovered. It also marks the smallest appearance of [[Globox]] in a level, as he does not appear until the very last cutscene (although his voice can be heard in the first and sixth phases).


==Description==
==Description==
This world is a dark and murky marshland of piranha-infested swamps, and is the home of two anti-social characters - [[Begoniax]] the witch, and [[Count Razoff]] - who soon see [[Rayman]] as an enemy.
This world is a dark and murky marshland of [[piranha]]-infested swamps, and is the home of two anti-social characters – [[Bégoniax]] the witch, and [[Razoff|Count Razoff]] the hunter – who soon see [[Rayman]] as an enemy. It is also home to [[Muddibog]]s who throw rocks at both [[Rayman]] and the [[Hoodlum]]s. Early in the first level, large flying creatures with hands for heads called [[Mawpaw]]s can be seen in the distant sky, one of which later helps [[Rayman]] out in the dungeon of [[Count Razoff#Count Razoff's mansion|Razoff's mansion]].
 
A tribe of [[Teensie]]s called [[Murkin]]s were originally planned to live in the swamp but were cut from the game.
 
==As a level==
===Stage 1 – [[Bégoniax]]===
The level occurs after [[Rayman]] has tumbled from one of the [[Teensie Highway]]s and been separated from [[Globox]]. He lands in a toilet cubicle occupied by the witch [[Bégoniax]], who becomes incredibly angry and threatens [[Rayman]], despite his feeble attempts to tell her he did not mean anything. Just outside the toilet, [[Rayman]] can break open a [[cage]], [[Teensie|the occupant]] of which will bestow upon him the first [[Throttle Copter]] can of [[Laser-Washing Powder]]. [[Rayman]] can use this to reach [[Bégoniax]]'s house. Once there, the battle against [[Bégoniax]] begins. The two chase each other around a large cauldron, the contents of which either can disturb at anytime by jumping up and hitting. If the contents hit one of the fighters, they will be transformed into a [[toad]], making them very vulnerable to the other's attacks. If [[Rayman]] wins, [[Bégoniax]] flees, and if [[Rayman]] follows her, he can access a magic mirror which transports him to a new part of the marshes.
 
The PlayStation 2 and GameCube versions feature an exclusive soundtrack for the [[Bégoniax]] battle.
 
The score thresholds for this stage are 590 points for 25% (2 stars), 1180 points for 50% (3 stars), 1770 points for 75% (4 stars) and 2360 points for 100% (5 stars).

===Stage 2 – The Island===
As [[Rayman]] jumps through the transportation, he appears in an area that features a set of various [[Hoodlum]]s, including the debut of the [[Spinneroo]]. If [[Rayman]] can defeat them all and access the cans of [[Laser-Washing Powder]] that are given to him, he can leave the area.
 
The score thresholds for this stage are 648 points for 25% (2 stars), 1295 points for 50% (3 stars), 1943 points for 75% (4 stars) and 2590 points for 100% (5 stars).

===Stage 3 – Meet [[Muddibog]]s!===
This phase begins with a [[Hoodmonger]] fighting off a swarm of [[Muddibog]]s. The winner of the fight is random, but is usually the [[Muddibog]]s. Regardless, [[Rayman]] must defeat whoever is left standing, grab the [[Lockjaw]], and carry on through a small building to a second bog, which features more [[Muddibog]]s, [[Hoodlum]]s, and [[piranha]]s similar to those seen in the previous two games.
 
If one of the [[Hoodlum]]'s boats is jumped on, it will move to the side of the building and sail in a circle, allowing [[Rayman]] to collect some [[Jewel|yellow gems]]. It also come across a small island with a hollow tree which contains some more [[Jewel|yellow gems]], a [[Jewel|green gem]] & several [[Jewel|red gems]]. If one uses the camera to look around, a fleet of [[Hoodlum]] airships can be seen carrying [[Hoodlum]]s to [[The Land of the Livid Dead (Rayman 3)|the Land of the Livid Dead]].
 
This phase is one of the hardest in gathering the best combo score, because of the many factors that go into this level (i.e. determining if either the [[Hoodmonger]] defeats the [[Muddibog]]s or if he gets defeated, and that the combo involves nearly all of the enemies that appear in this level.)<ref>https://raymanpc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=4986</ref>
 
The score thresholds for this stage are 3250 points for 25% (2 stars), 6500 points for 50% (3 stars), 9750 points for 75% (4 stars) and 13000 points for 100% (5 stars).

===Stage 4 – [[Razoff]]'s mansion===
This stage takes place mostly underground, and has [[Rayman]] navigating several tunnels and fighting off [[Hoodlum]]s inside and outside to eventually leave the area. At the end of the stage, he comes across a mysterious mansion that even the [[Hoodlum]]s cannot enter. However, once all the [[Hoodlum]]s are beaten, the doors mysteriously open and [[Rayman]] can enter, ending the stage.
 
The score thresholds for this stage are 1530 points for 25% (2 stars), 3060 points for 50% (3 stars), 4590 points for 75% (4 stars) and 6120 points for 100% (5 stars).

===Stage 5 – [[Razoff|Count Razoff]]===
Here, [[Rayman]] meets the nefarious [[Razoff|Count Razoff]], a hunter who is intent on killing [[Rayman]] and adding him to his collection. He expresses interest in stuffing him and mounting him on his wall, but also in turning him into a rug and putting him in front of his fireplace. The fight consists of the two chasing each other around [[Razoff]]'s huge mansion, fighting whenever they meet. After [[Razoff]] loses a certain amount of health on three occasions, the screen changes to a view of [[Razoff]]'s gun and [[Rayman]] must take cover behind statues. Once [[Rayman]] has worked [[Razoff]]'s health bar down to zero, [[Razoff]] flees into a basement, announcing that no one can stop him. [[Rayman]] must follow him underground to end the stage, and to defeat him for good.
 
Inside [[Razoff]]'s mansion is a room with a large mirror. If [[Rayman]] is left in idle in front of it, he will make a face at himself and notice he has something stuck in his teeth, pulling it out.
 
Before the last encounter to give [[Razoff]] 0 health, there's a room with four [[Jewel|yellow gems]] that the player can enter in to accomplish the [[Razoff]] Triple Glitch. It is very difficult to achieve.<ref>https://raymanpc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=4986</ref>
 
The score thresholds for this stage are 946 points for 25% (2 stars), 1891 points for 50% (3 stars), 2837 points for 75% (4 stars) and 3782 points for 100% (5 stars).

===Stage 6 – [[Razoff]]'s last stand===
This final stage sees [[Rayman]] and [[Razoff]] as they conclude their fight. This time, [[Razoff]] hangs from a giant ball on a chain, which he attempts to ram [[Rayman]] with. Later in the fight, [[Rayman]] can obtain [[Heavy Metal Fist]]s to give him an advantage. Once [[Razoff]]'s health is completely depleted, he tumbles into the pit below.
 
It is possible to achieve a glitch that can garner more points towards a good combo when [[Rayman]] has the [[Heavy Metal Fist]]. The player can strafe to make [[Razoff]] hit the wall near the camera right in the middle. Then, the player needs to stand on the cross between the first two stone pathways to where [[Rayman]] can shoot [[Razoff]] as many as 4 times.<ref>https://raymanpc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=4986</ref>
 
The score thresholds for this stage are 948 points for 25% (2 stars), 1895 points for 50% (3 stars), 2843 points for 75% (4 stars) and 3790 points for 100% (5 stars).

===Epilogue===
[[Razoff]] finds [[Globox]] in his basement and attempts to shoot him. However, he is suddenly met by a group of [[Ugly|small creatures]] he had previously captured, who he is apparently scared of. He runs, but is caught by [[Bégoniax]], who underlines her not-so-subtle desires of what she plans to do with him. [[Rayman]], [[Globox]] and the [[Ugly|small creatures]] watch, a little disturbed, as [[Razoff]] fails to escape [[Bégoniax]]'s grasp, before [[Globox]] questions [[Rayman]] as to how they will reach the [[Roméo Patti|Doctor's]] office. [[Rayman]] notices a magic mirror in the basement, and remembering the one he encountered in [[Bégoniax]]'s house, announces that he has an idea.
