An [[Rayman Origins (early production)|early version of the game's script]], found within the files of the game's [[List of Rayman demos|demo]], contains unused dialogue which indicates that in this scrapped scenario, [[the Magician]] was a fan and admirer of Mr Dark, and desired to be as mysterious and evil as him; one of his lines is "I always wanted to be like Mr. Dark: mysterious, dark!...um, dark and mysterious..". The script also reveals that [[the Magician]]'s real name would have been Ales Mansay, and that he became embittered and corrupted when he was bullied at magic school for his poor magical abilities. He eventually disguised himself as his hero, Mr Dark, and hid a microphone in [[the Snoring Tree]] to start a war between [[Rayman]] and the [[Livid Dead]] while he himself set to work building an army of mechas (powered by the [[Lum (UbiArt games)|Lums]] given to him by the clueless heroes) that he could use to take over [[the Glade of Dreams]] and free it from the rule of [[Polokus]], whom he considered to be an ineffectual and useless leader, unable to protect his people from his own nightmares. It is unknown why this plot was scrapped from the final game, and all that is left of it is the posters on the walls in [[the Magician]]'s headquarters, indicating that the part about him being an admirer of Mr Dark still holds true. | An [[Rayman Origins (early production)|early version of the game's script]], found within the files of the game's [[List of Rayman demos|demo]], contains unused dialogue which indicates that in this scrapped scenario, [[the Magician]] was a fan and admirer of Mr Dark, and desired to be as mysterious and evil as him; one of his lines is "I always wanted to be like Mr. Dark: mysterious, dark!...um, dark and mysterious..".
