Globox is a major character who first appeared in Rayman 2: The Great Escape. He lives near the Canopy in an area aptly named Globox's House, as seen in Rayman 2: Revolution. In most games, he is portrayed as Rayman's best friend.
Appearance
Globox resembles a large obese amphibian with webbed feet and long thin arms. In his debut he is green-blue in colour with a pale yellow belly and hands, though in his later appearances he comes more blue in colour.
Biography
Globox was originally called Globber, a name which he passed down to one of his children before changing his name. He has a very large family, and together with his wife Uglette they have produced over 650 children, most of which are male.
Roles in the Games
Rayman 2: The Great Escape
Rayman 2: Revolution
Though Globox's primary roles in Revolution were similar to those in Rayman 2, a few new elements were added. In Revolution, Globox does not grant Rayman the ability to shoot his Magic Fist, but instead simply allows Rayman to punch. Globox's house, children, and relation with Uglette are depicted in a larger scale; one of his daughters is an important character later in the game, Uglette is constantly seen worrying about Globox, and his cliffside house's acres of land are the setting for one half of the second part of the game. Globox joins Rayman on a few occasions in a fashion similar to Clark or Globox's role in Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc. Globox must be taken past Whale Bay to use his Rain Dance so as to enable entry to the Sanctuary of Stone and Fire.
Rayman M/Rayman Rush
In Rayman M and Rayman Rush, Globox is one of the initially available characters.
Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc
Globox remains physically similar to his original appearance, though had become a comedic sidekick for his next appearance. Globox plays a major plot role, having swallowed Andre accidentally and having to find a doctor who would find a solution to remove Andre from Globox during the first half of the game. During this time, Globox is forced to drink plum juice, despite allergies, and during a somewhat drunken state, he gains special abilities for short periods of time that are needed to progress through the game or move Globox forward through the level (by floating). Through the second half he plays a lesser role, though tends to follow Rayman on their journey. He is notably voice acted by actor John Leguizamo.
