Betilla: Difference between revisions
m Why this piece has been removed? If the few small differences of the Magician from the early stage have to be specified, then why not Betilla's too? |

In ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', while Betilla retains her long red hair (which has become even longer) and ability to float, she now has small, very translucent wings, wears a bikini top, a short skirt and a tall pointy hat of dark and light green colours, and what appears to be dark green kneesocks that are worn up to her now-existent thighs. She also wears small golden earrings, a necklace and several gold bangles on both forearms. | In ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', while Betilla retains her long red hair (which has become even longer) and ability to float, she now has small, very translucent wings, wears a bikini top, a short skirt and a tall pointy hat of dark and light green colours, and what appears to be dark green kneesocks that are worn up to her now-existent thighs.

Though slightly different from her appearance in the final game, it has also been used in the manual as well as in promotional material, even after the release of the game, such as an image celebrating [[Rayman]]'s twentieth anniversary in 2015. | ||

Betilla first appeared in the E3 2010 trailer of ''[[Rayman Origins]]''. In this game she is identified as the oldest [[nymph]] and an old friend of [[Polokus]]. She ‘weaves the [[Moons|moonbeams]] of the second summer solstice’ to create [[Rayman]], whom she hopes will protect the balance of the universe; however, the young [[Rayman]] is rebellious, immature and unruly. Like the [[Livingstone]]s, Betilla is portrayed with limbs; a revision of her limbless appearance in [[Rayman 1|the original game]]. It may be implied that she is also the trailer's narrator, and she seems to be recounting the game's events from a distant point in the future (presumably after the events of the first three [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'' platformers]]). | Betilla first appeared in the E3 2010 trailer of ''[[Rayman Origins]]''.
