The Bog of Murk, also known as the Umber Swamp, is a location found in Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc. This level introduces the player to the Throttle Copter, and is the only level to contain two bosses.

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. It is also home to mud enemies who throw rocks at both Rayman and the Hoodlums. Early in the first level, large flying creatures with hands for heads can be seen in the distant sky, one of which later helps Rayman out in the basement of Razoff's mansion.


Plot

Phase One

The level occurs after Rayman has tumbled from one of the Laser Tunnels and been seperated from Globox. He lands in a toilet cubicle occupied by the witch Begoniax, 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, the occupant of which will bestow upon him the first throttle copter powerup. Rayman can use this to reach Begoniax's house. Once there, the battle against Begoniax begins, the two chase each other 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 frog, making them very vulnerable to the other's attacks. If Rayman wins, Begoniax flees, and if Rayman follows her, he can access a magic mirror which transports him to a new part of the marshes.

Phase Two

The next stage features a set of hoodlums of various status. If Rayman can defeat them all and access the power ups they give him, he can leave the area.

Phase Three

This phase begins with a hoodlum fighting off a swarm of trees. The winner of the fight is random, but is usually the trees. Regardless, Rayman must defeat whoever is left standing, before carrying on through a small building to a second bog, which features more trees, hoodlums, and pirahnas similar to those seen in the previous two games. Rayman can eventually aquire a boat that will take him to a lookout allowing him to access the next stage.

Phase Four

This level takes place mostly underground, and has Rayman navigating several tunnels and fighting off hoodlums to eventually leave the area. At the end of the level, he comes across a mysterious mansion that even the hoodlums cannot enter. However, once all the hoodlums are beaten, the doors mysteriously open and Rayman can enter, ending the stage.

Phase Five

Here, Rayman meets the nefarious Count Razzof 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 Razzof's huge mansion, fighting whenever they meet. Once Rayman has worked Razzof's health bar down to zero, Razof flees into a basement, announcing that no one can stop him. Rayman must follow him underground to end the leve;l.

This final stage sees Rayman and Razzof conclude their fight. This time, Razzof hangs from a giant ball on a chain, which he attempts to ram Rayman with. Later in the fight, Rayman can obtain Heavy Metal Fists to give him an advantage. Once Razzoff's health reaches zero, he tumbles into the pit below.

Epilouge

Razzof finds Globox in his basement and attempts to shoot him. However, he is suddenly met by a group of small creatures he had previously captured, who he is apparently scared of. He runs, but is caught by Begoniax, who underlines her not-so-subtle desires of what she plans to do with him.
