Betilla the Fairy is a major character from Rayman. She is a limbless fairy, who uses her magic to grant Rayman with special powers that will help him recover the stolen Great Protoon from the clutches of Mister Dark.

Video game appearances

Rayman

Before the invasion by Mister Dark, it was Betilla's job to keep the Great Protoon and the Electoons safe. Her protective powers were sadly no match for Dark's, and he defeated her while taking the Great Protoon with him. Following then, she would then have to wait for Rayman to find her from time to time, and give him one power at a time permanently to gradually build up his strength. She was later kidnapped herself by Mister Dark and trapped in a crystal ball, at a later point in the game, though the ending assumes that Rayman had rescued her along with the Great Protoon.

Educational games

Betilla makes a notable appearance in Rayman Junior, to assist the Magician in giving Rayman an overview on the tasks he has to complete in a level. She had witnessed the theft of the Great Book of Knowledge by Mister Dark one day as she was visiting the Magician's cottage. To allow the young player to practice, she has her own place on the world map called Betilla's Garden, which is a series of simplified maps that cover most of Rayman's abilities. Betilla is known to have appeared in other educational Rayman games for even younger children.

Character description

Betilla gives Rayman one of his powers.

Betilla only shares a few attributes of a typical fairy, such as her ability to float in mid-air, and her ability to give Rayman his powers with her magic. She doesn't have wings, and doesn't appear to have elven ears. She has long red hair, and wears a green and yellow dress, hat and shoes covered with blue stars. Very little is known about her past much like the other characters in the games, but she appears to be a meditative and peaceful character (despite the chaos Mister Dark had caused upon the world), with plenty of wisdom to guide Rayman along the way and teach him to use his powers effectively.

Trivia

• Rayman 2: The Great Escape was about to feature a female character that bears a striking resemblance to Betilla, though in the final version she was replaced by Ly.
• Another character with some resemblance is Betina from the Animated series, but only the colours of her clothes and hair support this speculation.
• Although Betilla has not appeared in any Rayman game after educational versions of Rayman, her name is used as a leaderboard name in Rayman Raving Rabbids 2.
• The ending of Rayman Junior reveals that she has an interest in knitting, as she was doing so while housesitting the Magician's cottage as he celebrated Rayman's victory.
