'''Ly''' the Fairy is a major character in the [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'' series]]. She debuted in ''[[Rayman 2]]'', 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)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''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:Powers|powers]].

==Appearance and design==

[[Image:LyR2.png|thumb|120px|left|Ly.]]

[[File:Ly_juggling_animation.gif|thumb|Ly juggling.]]

While she is of a very thin build, Ly shares some typical [[fairy]] attributes, such as her long elven ears, her magical powers, and the ability to float in mid-air. Like [[Betilla]] the Fairy, she does not have wings. She has short purple hair and a long, bushy tail of the same colour, while having green eyes and lips. Contrary to popular belief, she is not naked, but wears a yellow suit with [[plum]] stripes and swirls all over; according to one of the earliest ''[[Rayman 2]]'' websites, she 'dresses like the [[People of Prhys]]'<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20000303195426/http://www.rayman2.com/en/story/story_txt3.html</ref>, though it is not known who these people are. The same website initially describes her as an "intriguing feline creature", suggesting that she may have indeed been such originally, though it is unknown as to why she had been redesigned as mostly elven; what remains in her final design is her tail. Early concept artwork for ''[[Rayman 2]]'' that depicted her shows that she had most likely been originally an anthropomorphic cat, as she appeared to have cat ears and a non-human nose. In both [[the Walk of Life]] and [[the Walk of Power]], she sometimes runs on all fours.

===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 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===

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, by floating while in a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lotus_position sitting lotus position]. [[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]], 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.

The original ''[[Rayman 2]]'' website describes her as 'wild and independant', and says that she shares the secrets of the [[People of Prhys]], and helps [[Rayman]] to protect them from harm.

==In ''[[Rayman 2]]''==

~~[[File:LyFairyGlade.jpg|thumb|left|320px|Ly as she appears in ''[[Rayman 2]]''.]]~~

~~[[File:R2TGE-PC-TheWalkOfLife-HallOfDoors.jpg|thumb|right|320px|A hologram of Ly is used to represent [[the Walk of Life]] and [[the Walk of Power]] in [[the Hall of Doors]].]]~~

Ly's story begins in [[Rayman]]'s mind, when she tells him that the [[Robo-Pirate]]s have broken [[the Heart of the World]] into 1000 [[Yellow Lum]]s and that it has weakened her, before he gets captured. She is then consulted by [[Globox]], who she gives a [[Silver Lum]] to give to [[Rayman]] before they are both captured. While [[Globox]] is taken to the ''[[Buccaneer]]'', Ly is held prisoner in an electrified forcefield in one of the pirate strongholds, deep in [[the Fairy Glade]]. The [[Silver Lum]] she created gives [[Rayman]] the ability to [[Magic fist|shoot balls of energy]], and it is put to good use as he eventually finds her and destroys the machine that controlled the forcefield, freeing her. By then, she only has enough energy to create one [[Silver Lum]], which upgrades [[Rayman]]'s [[Magic fist|shooting ability]] to be used with [[Purple Lum]]s. Before leaving to gather more energy, she passes her knowledge about [[Polokus]] and [[Four Masks of Polokus|his four masks]] to him.

Later on, Ly makes more [[Silver Lum]]s that make [[Rayman]] even more powerful, and by the time he reaches [[Admiral 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 [[Admiral Razorbeard|Razorbeard]] 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 Lum]]s are found, and offer him to have his health and power maximised. Despite it being a race, Ly does not have to be beaten.

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

[[Image:Ly the Fairy.jpg|thumb|320px|right|Ly as she appears in ''[[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 minigames 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 minigame [[Dogfight|Missile Dogfight]].

===In ''[[Rayman 2 Forever]]''===

Ly plays a similar role in ''[[Rayman 2 Forever]]'', the ~~handheld adaptation~~ of ''[[Rayman 2]]'', but like most characters her part is reduced due to the limitations of the Game Boy Color. She is not captured in [[the Fairy Glade]] and is simply encountered there. She does not give [[Rayman]] the power to swing from [[Purple Lum]]s on screen, although the rings (the equivalent to the [[Purple Lum]]s in this version) do not appear until after her meeting with [[Rayman]] in [[the Fairy Glade]], suggesting she may have given him this power after all and it was simply not shown. She tells [[Rayman]] to gather the [[Four Masks of Polokus]] as always, but offers no explanation as to what they are. She appears several times throughout the game to give [[Rayman]] the temporary [[Super helicopter]] power, and instructs him to destroy [[Admiral Razorbeard|Razorbeard]] before the final battle. She congratulates [[Rayman]] upon his victory.

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

In [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']], Ly plays largely the same role as [[Betilla]] the Fairy in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]]. 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.

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

==In [[Rayman Raving Rabbids (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman Raving Rabbids'']]==

Ly makes some brief appearances in [[Rayman Raving Rabbids (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman Raving Rabbids'']], where she gives [[Rayman]] a costume [[medallion]] every time he defeats a boss. While the game uses the same sprites as [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']], 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.
