'''The Magician''', also known as '''Ales Mansay''' and the '''Dark Teensy''' or '''Mr Dark''' (due to the fact that he continued the original [[Mr Dark]]'s legacy and was promoted and marketed with the name "Mr Dark" until the release of ''[[Rayman Origins]]'' to avoid spoilers), is a major character in the [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'' series]]. He makes his first appearance in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]], where he seems to be a member of [[Rayman]]'s [[Rayman's species|limbless species]]. His next major role is in ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', where he is revealed to be a [[Teensie]], and ultimately takes on a villainous role. In the intermediate years, the Magician also appeared in several educational spin-offs of [[Rayman 1|the original game]], such as ''[[Rayman Junior]]'' and ''[[English with Rayman]]''. In ''[[Rayman Legends]]'', he multiplies to become the five villainous [[Dark Teensy|Dark Teensies]].

==Character description==

Line 108:

*He is also the third villain (first two being [[Admiral Razorbeard|Razorbeard]] and [[André]]) in the main series to have been the main antagonist for more than one game.

*While not making a physical appearance in ''[[Rayman Adventures]]'', the Magician is mentioned in [[Rabbiteen]]'s description. It says that her long lost brother jumped into the Magician's hat, never to be seen again.

* The Magician or [[Dark Teensy]] in ''Rayman Origins'' and ''Rayman Legends'' is a mix of the previous main antagonists of the series.

** He is a dark and thieving (and kidnapping) sorcerer whose real identity remained mysterious until the finale of ''Origins'', spread chaos in [[the Glade of Dreams]] and used a specific magical source for himself like [[Mr Dark]].

** He is a short-statured individual with a personal army of mechanical and robotic creatures like [[Razorbeard]].

** He is a member of a typically peaceful species of the Glade of Dreams who became corrupted and evil and tried to recreate the world in his image like [[André]].

** His backstory of being bullied by the other Teensies for his apparently non-exceptional magical abilities is similar to the backstory of the [[Rabbids]] in the [[Rayman Raving Rabbids (Game Boy Advance)|GBA version of ''Rayman Raving Rabbids'']] and the [[Rayman Raving Rabbids (cancelled prototype)|cancelled prototype of ''Rayman 4'']].

* Despite the fact that his real name, Ales Mansay, is unused, many Rayman fans very often call him by that.
