Sssssam is a character that appears only in Rayman 2: The Great Escape and its remakes and Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc for the GBA system.

Description

Sssssam is a purple Snake or Serpent-like creature who dwells in the Marshes of Awakening, acting as a ferryman for the Glade's inhabitants. He has a disproportionately large head compared to his thin body. The body itself appears to be no longer than Rayman's height, however he is never seen in full; only his head, part of his neck and occasionally the tip of his tail are ever actually visible, as he is only ever seen submerged in the water of the Marshes. As a result, it is impossible to gauge just how long he might be; he could be quite short or incredibly long. Sssssam speaks with heavy, noticeable emphasis on the 's' sounds in a word, not unlike a sterotypical cartoon snake.

In Rayman 2

In Rayman 2 and its remakes, Sssssam is first found by Rayman in the Marshes of Awakening, imprisoned in a pirate cage. Upon being freed by Rayman, Sssssam stretches agrees to take Rayman across the Marshes, as he had seen the Pirates take Globox in that direction. On the other side, Sssssam bids Rayman farewell and asks Rayman to make a point of visiting again. From this it would seem that he is very lonely, possibly having no friends within the Marshes.

Cameo

Ssssaam makes a cameo appearnace in Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc as one of Count Razoff's statues.
