'''Big Mama''' is a gigantic pink tentacled monster who acts as the optional final boss of ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', and the final boss of the [[Back to Origins]] mode of ''[[Rayman Legends]]''. She is fought in the [[Land of the Livid Dead (UbiArt games)|Land of the Livid Dead]], a hellish underworld and optional final level which can only be accessed by collecting all of the [[Skull Tooth|Skull Teeth]] in the game. Several editions of ''[[The Daily Bubble]]'' showed a middle-aged female member of [[Globox's species]], known as [[~~Voodoo~~ Mamma]], who bore a strong resemblance to Big Mama (and is still mentioned by the [[Polokus|Bubble Dreamer]]); however, in the final version of the game, Big Mama turns into a [[nymph]] ~~called the~~ '''~~Death Fairy~~''' when she is defeated, and [[~~Voodoo~~ Mamma]] is never seen.

== Description ==

As the [[nymph]] of [[Land of the Livid Dead (UbiArt games)|Land of the Livid Dead]], ~~the Death Fairy~~ is dressed in Gothic fashion. She sports numerous tattoos on her legs, a pink dress with a hairy skull on the front, spiky, golden wristbands (not unlike her monster form) and a hairy skull hanging from each ear. Her hair is purple, with three ponytails with bones on the end. Unlike the [[nymph]]s who have all [[fairy]] wings, the Death Fairy has small bat wings. She also speaks in a deep voice.

Big Mama was first revealed in ''[[Rayman Origins]]'''s announcement trailer, where she is seen battling [[Rayman]] and [[Globox]] in the [[Mystical Pique]]. Later artwork shows her tentacles descending from the clouds above the mountain, suggesting that the players would have to climb to reach her. However, in the final version of the game, the battle with Big Mama was relocated to the [[Land of the Livid Dead (UbiArt games)|Land of the Livid Dead]]. When [[Rayman]], [[Globox]], and the two [[Teensie]]s enter Big Mama's lair, she is painting her nails while singing (her voice here is provided by [[Christophe Héral]]'s aunt).

At one point it was stated that Big Mama's monstrous roars had been provided by series creator [[Michel Ancel]], but this may have changed during the development of the game, as she sounds distinctly feminine in the final version. Gabrielle Shrager, the lead writer of ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', voices ~~the Death Fairy~~.

== In ''Rayman Jungle Run'' ==

In ''[[Rayman Jungle Run]]'', both Big Mama and her [[nymph]] form ~~the Death Fairy~~ appear in some of its artwork. On those pictures, the latter seems to be good friends with [[Rayman]]. She also has a long piece of hair between her eyes which was not previously seen, along with her spiky wristbands being black with sliver spikes instead of gold. Additionally, she has skulls tied on the sides of her legs. It is also where her name is revealed: the artwork refers to her as 'Fée de la Mort'.
