'''Mr Dark''' is [[Rayman]]'s arch-nemesis, and a major character in the [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'' series]]. A diabolical and mysterious shape-shifting sorcerer, Mr Dark has attempted to disrupt the balance of [[the Glade of Dreams]] on several occasions, but is always thwarted by Rayman. His features are hidden beneath a shadowy cloak and hat, beneath which only his glowing yellow eyes can be seen. Mr Dark's first appearance is in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]], where he acts as the main antagonist and final boss. He makes similar villainous appearances in [[Rayman (Game Boy Color)|the game's handheld adaptation]], and in ''[[Rayman Junior]]'', an educational spin-off. Although Mr Dark does not make a direct appearance in ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', the game makes several references to him, and it is ultimately revealed that his influence inspired [[the Magician]] to become a villain.
