'''Ly the [[Fairy]]''' is a character in the ''Rayman'' series who debuted in ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]'' (and its remakes), and made briefer appearances in [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance versions of ''Rayman 3'']] and [[Rayman Raving Rabbids (Game Boy Advance)|''Rayman Raving Rabbids]]''. Along with her fellow [[Fairy|fairies]], she is an emissary of her creator [[Polokus]], and it is her job to provide information about him and [[Four Masks of Polokus|his Four Masks]], as well as using her magical powers to create [[Silver Lum]]s that endow [[Rayman]] with new [[:Category:~~Power~~|powers]].

Later on, Ly makes more Silver Lums that make Rayman even more powerful, and by the time he reaches [[Razorbeard]] in the [[Crow's Nest]], she uses one to save him from falling into the vast body of lava, and using telepathy, encourages him to fight until the robot Admiral is defeated. When the battle is over, at first she was made to believe that Rayman did not survive the explosion high in the sky, until he turns up alive.

Additionally, Ly offers Rayman to join her in a race through ~~the~~ [[Walk of Life]] and [[the Walk of Power]], in which extra Yellow Lums are found, and offer him to have his health and power maximised. Despite it being a race, Ly does not have to be beaten.

===''[[Rayman Revolution]]''===

In ''Rayman Revolution'', it is revealed that Ly resides in a house built in a giant tree somewhere in the [[East Plain]], and it is there that she offers Rayman to play some mini games that top up his health and power, provided that he frees and brings to her enough [[Familiar Spirit]]s for each game. She also meditates from a stone in the area of [[Globox's House]], and a stele in [[Rainbow Creek]]. She is also a playable character in the unlockable mini game [[Missile Dogfight]].

===''Rayman 3 ~~GBA~~''===

===[[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|''Rayman 3'' (Game Boy Advance)]]===

~~She~~ plays the same role as Betilla in ''Rayman 1''. Oddly enough, Ly's sprite in this game shows that her tail is missing, and is now replaced a large ponytail at the back of her head, though in a cut-scene she still has her original tail and short hair.

===''Rayman Raving Rabbids ~~GBA~~''===

===[[Rayman Raving Rabbids (Game Boy Advance)|''Rayman Raving Rabbids'' (Game Boy Advance)]]===

Ly makes some brief appearances in ~~the~~ [[Rayman Raving Rabbids (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman Raving Rabbids'']], where she gives Rayman a costume medallion ~~everytime~~ he defeats a boss. While the game uses the same sprites as ''Rayman 3'' ~~for the GBA~~, she has a new appearance in the cut-scenes, where the front of her hair is curlier than before, she has pale blue lipstick, and her suit reveals her shoulders.

==Character Description==

Line 36:

===Physical===

Ly shows great athletic and gymnastic skills, perhaps more so than Rayman's, as she can run faster and jump much higher than he can. In fact, she can cross very large gaps, such as on the river in the Walk of Power, while Rayman would have to use his [[Helicopter]]. However, it is possible for the player to outrun her in the Walk of Life, though in all versions of the game apart from ''Rayman Revolution'', she will simply teleport herself to the finishing point if she is too far behind. Despite being thin, ~~she has~~ enough strength to juggle ~~with~~ Rayman's body parts with ease~~, if she wanted to~~. She can also shoot energy ~~spheres~~, like Rayman's, as a method of defence.

However, it is possible for the player to outrun her in [[the Walk of Life]], though in all versions of the game, apart from ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'', she will simply teleport herself to the finishing point if she is too far behind. Despite being very thin, a piece of official artwork depicts her with enough strength to juggle all of Rayman's body parts with ease. She can also shoot [[energy sphere]]s, like Rayman's, as a method of defence.

===Personality===

~~Akin~~ to Betilla the Fairy, she is a calm and very meditative character, even in her captivity at the Fairy Glade, and spends most of her time meditating deep in the forest. Rayman says that ~~the~~ [[Woods of Light]] is one of her favourite places to be. When she is not meditating, she is a fun-loving and friendly character that puts a lot of faith and trust in the heroes of the world, and is willing to help Rayman defeat Razorbeard and the Robo-Pirate ~~Army~~.

Similar to [[Betilla the Fairy]], she is a calm and very meditative character, even in her captivity at [[the Fairy Glade]], and spends most of her time meditating deep in the forest. Rayman says that [[the Woods of Light]] is one of her favourite places to be. When she is not meditating, she is a fun-loving and friendly character that puts a lot of faith and trust in the heroes of the world, and is willing to help Rayman defeat [[Admiral Razorbeard]] and the [[Robo-Pirate army]].

It is unknown if she is at all related to [[Tily ~~the Fairy~~]], a much younger fairy ~~that~~ shares some of her features.

It is unknown if she is at all related to [[Tily]], a much younger [[fairy]] who appears in ''[[Rayman M]]''/''[[Rayman Arena|Arena]]''/''[[Rayman Rush|Rush]]'', and who shares some of her features and has a similar name to her. It has been speculated that Tily was created as a replacement for Ly in these games, as Ly is still seen on some of their promotional artwork.
