Helena Handbasket: Difference between revisions

| relatives = [[Betilla the Fairy|Betilla]] (sister)<br />

'''Helena Handbasket''' is a character from ''[[Rayman Origins]]''.  She is one of [[Betilla]]'s sisters that is imprisoned in the mouth of a [[Darktoon]], and is first encountered in [[Moseying the Mountain]], the first level in the [[Mystical Pique]]. When [[Rayman]], [[Globox]] and the [[Teensie]]s rescue her, she gives them the power to run on walls. There's a PlayStation Network trophy/Xbox LIVE Gamerscore achievement, called [[Nymphs Rock!]], which consists in a player rescuing her from a [[Darktoon]].

Helena is referred to as the Mountain Nymph. She has mid-length blonde hair (noticably the shortest of the family) and is one of only two nymphs in the family to wear a dress - a blue one, with furry trimmings at the top and bottom. Along with [[Betilla]], she does not wear a hat made from an animal hide or skull, but what appears to be a waterdrop-shaped hat with the same furry trimming. Pieces of the same furry material is also worn around both her ankles and wrists.

==Role in ''[[Rayman Origins]]''==

When Helena is rescued, she is then seen on the map of the Mystical Pique before the players reach [[Way of the Electoons]], which is a level consisting of an [[Electoon]] bridge. If the players gather enough Electoons, she will grant them access to this level.

When the players reach [[Riding the Storm]], the first level of the [[Moody Clouds]], Helena is seen as the only nymph to stay floating in the centre of the portal that leads to the Moody Clouds, and to chant a spell to open it once all of the Four Kings are defeated. Therefore she is the only nymph that does not meditate, as there isn't a king that rules the Moody Clouds.
