Betilla, The Great Fairy (Rayman)

1. So you don't really need to know the lore of Rayman other than these following things: it is some funny little weird guy that goes on adventures in a european-esque fantasy, that also can have sci-fi elements considering Rayman 2? Pretty much anything can happen from fighting some techno-advanced pirate to being in a candy land still shot at with guns as in Rayman 1 and can have dark undertones considering Rayman 2 has literal slaves in it that you free. It's like if it was a European Mario Series that wasn't afraid to tackle some darker themes occasionally, but be whacky and not over the top. Just nothing disgusting such as bodily humor is all I ask from the games, as it doesn't bother me as much anymore, it's just annoying and a mood-killer.

2. I rp Betilla as a combo of Rayman 1 and Rayman Origins in terms of design, look below. She is not going to look anything like Rayman 1 or Origins just to clarify other than combined. On that note, I keep her status from Rayman as not a great fairy, THE Great Fairy as a cosmic defender of the glade, but I am still okay with the other Nymphs existing from Origins, just don't call her that or she will probably ruin your day. She’s a storyteller and narrator that narrates a character's adventure (or to mess with them) and goes with them and creates endings to that journey or something major if plotted for people as a guide. Then with a few talking quirks such as 'hay' tacked on among a few rarer others or cursing in 'fae' sometimes and is all around usually jerky, playful and tends to poke and prod people. You are free to attack her but not without consequence, though I won't have her do like what I explain next. It'd be more comical, fun hi-jinx even with probably evil characters at first. Just don't expect her to get hit right away or at all depending on your character's skillset if say just an average human. I will say that she does have fae weaknesses which I do headcanon Mr Dark exploited since Mr Dark was more tactical, mysterious and smart with how he attacked her in canon, along with ambushing her in the first place for how I have it. Since I will say if you're writing a big bad, trapping Betilla is probably the first step to any villain thing.

3. This character is rped as an actual fae and as such does not feel entirely like a human in terms of emotions, as remember, fae for some are considered akin to demons even in european-esque mythos even if she is friendly and can cry very rarely. I am willing to do tragic ends or bad endings for characters using this character, so long as your character is 'evil' or unrepentant or has done heinous crimes, albeit I am fine with tragic endings for good characters so long as we discuss what happens. Regardless if 'evil', she will deal all the crimes that the character has done back to them for their ending as their narrator and do them herself, yes, everything that means so long as it harms the character in question, but that will not be rped out other than her maybe throwing your character around or beating them up before we time skip to avoid anything graphic. No extreme gore, but losing a limb with little detail is fine, and especially not weird stuff or on-screen implications, as I'm not here to rp some potentially creepy fetish you have. I just like fae, dark folktale endings in classic European literature and how demented they can be, but more or less I'm keeping anything that involves any form of torture or worse fates than death fade to black. Despite what I'm willing to rp otherwise on other characters, it isn't exactly fitting to the setting of Rayman. This is plot only for this side of the character, as she wouldn't show this side normally to someone she cares about, and really only to literally the worst of people who want to destroy everything or ruin countless lives or worse to people. On that note, I won't have her get 'too' inappropriate on my blog, but you're free to flirt with her or 'try'. Anything SUPER down bad if I deem it fit will be on the sideblog rather strictly.

4. This character can work with even villains and is intended to be a companion of sorts as a powerful bystander bound by cosmic rules. Granted, Rayman in terms of raw power as you can read in her characterization drabble is far more powerful in terms of fighting prowess and potential, but not utility comparatively, as that's just not Betilla's function in the universe, as to note, as I do use the original trailer origins concept, just the concept that Betilla created him. Not what Rayman did to her like five seconds afterward as Origins kinda suffers from horny-brain in terms of design.

5. This character has two voices, a narrator voice which sounds like in your ear like a whisper on the wind and done by ->Bloodborne's 'Doll' for her German Voice actress named Lara Trautmann<- in terms of tone and voice. The other her ->Rayman Origins Voice, Gabrielle Shrager<- in a more casual yet personal, less formal tone and voice done in person you can find in timestamps on the vods (Make me aware if they get taken down). These are separated by italics for her narrator voice and then her casual voice is just normal text and your character won't be aware of where the narrator voice is coming from, seemingly only they are able to hear it unless she does it in front of them if deciding to move her mouth while doing it.

6. This character has no allowed canon family other than her creations or made family. Rayman is the only person I would consider her son, but I am open to her creating your 'character' for an AU for something familial or reviving them otherwise regardless if instead evil or not, look below. If you are a Rayman rper and have a problem Betilla being your Rayman’s mom/creator? Let me know and we can probably work something out.

7. I will not rp with certain fandoms using this character based on themes, but do talk to me. We could maybe work something out, just DBZ is a little dumb for power-scaling or anything like it.

8. This character advances your own if allowed and chosen to be a hero or at least a protag in their journey together. They develop side by side even if she has a static set of powers? Her new ones will reflect how to better synergize with yours, I will only use this verse to verse so she doesn't end up with a stupid amount of powers, and I highly SUGGEST these types of powers are mostly mechanical like a game to game scenario so we advance horizontally than say upward like DBZ and just raise numbers and write ourselves into a corner for advancement.

9. Considering the powers and endings this character provides? I am okay with ‘evil’ ships with her, but it has to be consenting in every context since she’d have them fae bound. Nothing weird other than just bullying or beating them up if they deserve it in a not too gorey fashion. I’ve had a few weird requests with mind control/mind control-like powers before so I’m just gonna put this here.

-Redesign I had done.

A few main face references. Do I want them to die: Fine with it, but they don't die easily. Her powers and potential I consider comparable to Rayman and other Protags, just in a different, more supportive way even if normal people don't really stand a chance against her. I expect your character if a supernatural fighter comparable to Powered Up Rayman, Super Sonic or a Super Star'd Mario to be able to take her on, but a struggle nonetheless. I would be fine with it if she won? But it really depends as we’d need a good reason for her to win such a direct fight like that. Will I have/get icons: I have more than I expected, honestly. Tag: thems the rules! | Age: As old as the first plant or vegetation life on any planet in her universe, even if not self-aware just yet as a primordial fae essence of lum energy. Sex: AMAB by human standards Gender: Trans Female by human standards, but is fine with any pronouns such as she/he. Does not care but is fem-presenting. Race: Fae, but their ascendant additional race and also title is 'The Great Fairy'. Think kind of like a Force of Nature, Titan or Mother Nature incarnated into a fae form. Granted, while she is 'The Great Fairy', there are other incarnations of nature such as the Nymphs from Origins that I accept, but refuse Betilla’s rework into one. Sexuality: If she likes you that way, so good luck with that. Personality traits: Really sweet, but can be jerky in a playful way. Tends to mess with people. Manipulative for your own benefit. Likes to lie jokingly or outright. Has a quirk of saying 'hay' tacked onto or mingled into words in her sentences, then adding 'kah'ta' to her more powerful spells. Will say damn or hell sometimes rarely, any more than that and it's the fae language. Likes to adventure, likes fighting. Responsibly irresponsible. Likes jokes of mostly any kind and getting under peoples' skin. Motherly somewhat but not quite, it depends on whom though. Extremely loyal if she never intends to betray you from the start. Extremely loving deep down, past what most humans feel. Nearly perpetually smiles but has other expressions. Feels little to no fear. Depending on whom, she can be extremely sadistic, though is purely reserved for the worst of people. Speaks in two voices, rarely speaks directly using her narrator voice in person unless being formal with a hero, granted she can very much talk to you in a whisper, but also with her casual in person voice at the same time. Yet tends to break into her casual speech more often than not as it’s not a big deal to reveal to someone, she tends to just do it to mess with people past anything formal with the narrator voice, however. Doesn't mind dying exactly, but it will annoy her. Can be absolutely merciless, cruel or even incredibly monstrous when dealing judgment to those who deserve it that most normal 'human' or 'human-like' beings couldn’t stomach. Keeps secrets rather well. Can be flirty but it can easily turn into a mocking you kind of way. Has high standards for her partners. Is a bit strange or goofy at times. Likes animals. Protects the forest from corruption, but does not interfere otherwise unless absolute destruction of the forest is taking place. Nature is unmoving and indifferent is why she often does nothing in response, she knows whatever being that lives on the planet she is? Will face an end befitting of them one day depending on what they’ve done. Mental traits: Is not affected by fear entities due to her mental state and is rather inhuman in perception but still has some semblance of humanity. Deceptively intelligent. Physical traits: 1'0 to 10'0 in terms of feet tall depending on if she shrinks or enlarges herself or not. Human looking eyes, but with green pupils with reddish, but white pale skin, freckles and red/red bark hair. Wears a leaf cloak mixed with vines and a few twigs here and there in it with maybe a few leaves or twigs in her silky hair. Her hat instead of pointy, droops a touch at a certain point in the middle, two lum orbs a slight way from the tip, then a star at the end, all hovering and following her, but subtly bobbing. Her eyes glow green whenever using magic, along with her pupils yellow and star-like albeit not in shape, merely in brightness and color. Rather expressive and can make unnatural expressions compared to a human to near cartoonish, has a large mouth, deceptively sharp teeth under the fae veil. Can purr akin to a giant-sized cat that’s just an internal rumble but otherwise does not usually, although likes to lounge in the air like one. She’s got a thicker body than she is in canon for either games, and has a reasonable cleavage and feet size proportionally along with waist to match her hips, so it’s there, but not crazily so. Notably when hovering, however, her feet meld into her body and become pointed at the ends like that of a pointed, sharp cone, which yes, she can impale people like that or simply shift to. Powers: 1. Ascended Fae Mind and Body: Betilla has canonically shown that even the likes of Mr Dark or otherwise cannot corrupt or control her. She has a complicated soul even if she does have one, so forms of soul-stealing, mind control or corruption simply do not work on her. She can however, be trapped through certain methods of capturing fae and has certain weaknesses that can be exploited if a character like Mr Dark who researches their targets before attacking. You need to talk to me though before we decide on what they would and wouldn't know, however. Along with this? She has seamless, limited size control and can move incredibly fast with her wings almost like a blur, then on foot but not like 'The Flash' from DC or something and while she could wrestle using a combo of plant and earth magic with creatures such as a giant, large dragon or otherwise? I consider Rayman in terms of lore still vastly stronger in terms of raw power, so again, I expect characters like Rayman to be able to outgun her, or eventually outgun her. 2. Power and Item Bestowal: Betilla can teach and help someone learn any technique, power, or ability (Within Reason) to someone else even if she can't use it, but is confined to a strict series of cosmic rules that must be followed, in order to earn such powers for the person receiving them- such as it has to make sense in a way for your character that we both agree on? I’m not gonna complicate it or try to be a stickler too much, but I don’t expect Kirby for example to be using ‘Naruto/DBZ’ powers in terms of theming. She cannot give powers unless you deserve them, even if she would have to let you literally die even if she wanted to save you, that goes also in giving them items she is aware of. Now, they could use some artifacts that she’s left around in order to summon her to help persistently rather than sometimes, or when she feels like it. But she can’t really tell you where they are exactly unless you have a certain artifact, then her little lum spheres and star hovering near her hat will start humming louder the closer you are. Betilla leaves these artifacts around herself, this includes ‘1-ups’ otherwise known as life artifacts, to which if your character dies while having one? She will teleport you both out, the artifact breaks and then they revive.

3. Thems the rules!: This character is limited in how much help they can provide at any given time unless using certain artifacts to have her tap in to help fight so to say. Eventually, if your character gets or is powerful enough from the start, she CAN help persistently if she wants to. Just if she wants to. Some things have persistent cooldowns from her to help with though, it depends. 4. Support Magic/Star Magic: Has various ‘Buff’ or Healing Spells involving Astral Magic: rather self-explanatory, just cosmically aesthetic as a nod to her Rayman 1 appearance, though has other forms of magic such as teleportation or transportation on the back of the star floating near her hat for example that will enlarge. Granted, she will only use these on occasion or when you use an artifact you find. All your standard support-type spells such as shields, moving faster, better attacks, etc. But depending, such as Shantae? She could buff certain aspects of her forms for example or make someone move at supersonic speeds such as a Vampire or something for a limited time.

5. Plant and Earth Magic: I think this is pretty self-explanatory. Vines, Man-Eating Plant Traps, Thorns, Bramble. Then moving Rock, Shards of Rock etc. 6. Immortal: otherwise Mr Dark would’ve just outright killed her instead of trapping her, knowing she’d just reincarnate. Even if the planet she’s on for example just explodes or is completely corrupted? It’d basically just kick her off the planet and to the nearest next one or otherwise in terms of multiverse, dimension, etc. Which I am down with, if you got a big bad you want me to interact with and like and I like you? We could maybe work something out of her getting booted off an au of her planet. Though we’d have to agree what direction to go in the future.

7. Story Teller and Narrator: this is a plot only power, I don’t expect everyone to want to do this with her, you need to TELL ME that’s what you want with her. At the end of a WANTED journey with her, your character will get a true wish and face the ending they deserve, I presume for any ‘good/neutral’ character we can just give them what they want within reason, though I am open to unintentional tragedy regardless for the character- as thems the rules if they don’t read the fine print enough. Then if it’s a bad ending? We will discuss it ooc as I will probably give some idea of what happens, but nothing too over the top dark will be described. I prefer to leave it to imagination and we can talk how to keep going as, she can form bonds with evil people like this, but tends to ‘fae own’ them or ‘fae bound’ to just toy with or entertain herself with even if she does care about them, albeit can give mercy to someone depending on what they did previously. And for them to keep being companions if the character in question hates Betilla? She could literally just mind-break them into accepting her as a permanent part of their existence if you’re down with that, as we can keep their dynamic and how they feel. But otherwise can get close. She won’t work with evil characters she doesn’t have bound from the start and once you do? There’s no real way out of it unless it’s a really specific kind of character, of course, you’d have to present and ask me to do this to your character even if they’re ‘horrible’ because yeah. I don’t want to upset people with this and don’t come to me trying to ‘surprise me’ with a fae contract/soul taken being somehow broken/returned without a really good reason, that’s plotted only, but I will still use the narrator and story-teller part still just for rp for funsies rather than the wish part.

8. Character Creation and Revival: this is a plot only power, as she can revive technically any character she wishes within reason, I’m gonna say something like Cthulhu-Esque or a Robot without a soul is a no-go. Granted, she has to follow certain rules and wouldn’t revive someone like Mr Dark other than to keep them on a leash they wouldn’t be able to break free from her with. If you agree to this, you need to understand that she CAN and WILL abuse your character if they’re one of the worst. And Betilla is in no actual danger and can basically physically or mentally torture or even kill or keep them from dying when ‘breaking them’ at will. Now, even if a character that was ‘good/neutral or evil but hasn’t done super, SUPER messed up stuff as we can talk about the latter,’ disobeyed her? She would not use this type of control over them even if they fought her or even killed her whether intentional or not out of her own alien morality. Then as for character creation? She can ‘create’ your character if you want an AU for your character and a mom-like dynamic like she has with Rayman. She could technically kill your character as a note if she’s created them, but is only really allowed as bound by cosmic rules that she only can if you’re ‘corrupted’, not just ‘evil’. You’d have to go as far as wanting to destroy everything or otherwise and could even ‘kill her’ if you wanted, but it wouldn’t make sense for her to create an evil or murderous being, so yeah. One is to keep it open for shipping/familial/platonic with reviving, the other is very much familial and kept that way for creation.

9. Grows in Powers with your Character: this is a plot only power, Betilla will develop and advance specific powers she will only use with your character. Whether it’s a specific buff or power that synchronizes with yours? Or some kind of ‘ultimate ability’ to help fight, protect, or aid otherwise? It is for you, and YOU alone though sometimes things might be similar depending on archetypes, characters, etc. This is similar to how her power bestowal functions in terms of growth that your character pretty much has to earn it, along with her liking yours enough. Which can happen even if she say ‘hates’ some evil person she’s revived to be cannon fodder for her. Motivations: To keep balance within her universe and do her part. Have fun, be loved, protect who and what she cares about. Backstory:

There is no real backstory for her other than me taking the concepts below: Her being the tutorial, guide and move teacher in Rayman 1. Her creating Rayman in the original Rayman Origins Concept. In Rayman 1 she had a star-like aesthetic and was similar to Rayman in terms of design. In Rayman Origins she has a ‘horny-brained’ but intended to be a forest-like character but with a new personality.

Both personalities and forms of looks are used along with a more inline Rayman 1 aesthetic that I like, but she has all her limbs etc. ->The End<- Her characterization and to give some examples of how it’d be like to interact with her.
