'''Carmen the Whale''' is a character from [[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]. In every version, Carmen's first appearance was on the Main Menu, making her the first significant character to appear in the game, even before [[Rayman]]. Carmen's home is in the ocean, though she occasionally makes trips to [[Whale Bay]]. Carmen has been witnessed having a taste for the thorny roots common in [[the Sanctuary of Rock and Lava]]. Carmen's purpose in life is to survey the depths of the ocean, depositing air bubbles to help any stray plants and animals, and in this case also Rayman. [[Piranha]]s are very fond of her air bubbles, since they suffer from heartburn.

Carmen was a prisoner held in [[Whale Bay]] by the [[Robo-Pirate Army|Robo-Pirates]], who were intending to take blubber from her and use it to grease their engines. In return for being rescued by Rayman, Carmen would help him to stay underwater for longer periods provided he followed her and breathed in the air bubbles she produced. In the PlayStation version of ''Rayman 2'', Carmen led Rayman to the [[Sanctuary of Water and Ice]]; in all other versions, she leads him to the end of the level.

Rayman rides Carmen in one of the loading animations in the game; this is the only loading animation that is not present anywhere else in the game, possibly meaning that Rayman may have originally been going to ride Carmen.
