Red Wizards are a clan of glutes appearing in Rayman Origins. Most of the Red Wizards are fakirs, who worship Polokus and can usually be found meditating cross-legged in the air. Rayman's best friend, Globox, was originally a Red Wizard; however, he became blue as a result of some unusual incident, possibly involving blue mosquitoes or poisoned berries.

Globox, the blue Red Wizard

Appeareance

As members of his species, Red Wizards closely resemble Globox, with webbed feet, a prominent belly, a wide mouth and small eyes. While Globox's body is blue and white, the Red Wizards are dark orange and white in colour, and have long, light-orange hair. Their fakir variants can usually be found levitating cross-legged in mid-air, with their beards dangling to the ground below them; the player characters can grab their beards and swing from them. Other members of their species seem to have no legs at all, their feet floating disconnectedly like Rayman's. Most of the Red Wizards have ponytails on their heads, and wear bandage-like clothes around their waists, usually decorated with clam shells and a bottle inside.

Role

In Rayman Origins, the Red Wizards make their first appeareance and have a major role in the game. Their duty is to assist their master, the Bubble Dreamer, to turn into a real mature god by forcing him to follow the useless ritual of sacrifying peas to stop the nightmares that invade the Glade of Dreams. Most of them stay at the Mystical Pique with the fakirs, while others have their huts on stilts above the Sea of Serendipity. Some Red Wizards can be seen being trapped by Darktoons and Rayman can optionally save them.

Red Globox (as he looked before he was attacked by blue Moskitos) is one of the unlockable skins in the game.
