Admiral Razorbeard

‘’’Admiral Razorbeard’’’ is the main antagonist of ‘’Rayman 2’’, the leader of an army of robotic pirates who invade Rayman’s world and enslave the inhabitants. At the very start of the game, Rayman himself is imprisoned and has to escape from the pirates, and then begins finding and rescuing all his other friends. Eventually, Rayman learns that Razorbeard can be defeated by obtaining four elemental masks and summoning the god Polokus. Admiral Razorbeard spends the entire game in the Crow’s nest of his ship, where he is warned by his assistant of Rayman’s heroics and gives orders to stop him at all costs.

Later in the game, Razorbeard is seen purchasing a giant robot called the “Grolgoth” from an independent warmonger to fight Rayman with. Sure enough, this robot makes its appearance at the end of the game when Rayman launches himself up to Razorbeard’s ship and is confronted by his mech. The platform they are fighting on soon breaks and they fall into the reactor core of the ship, where the robot and ship are destroyed, but Razorbeard himself escapes in a flying saucer.

Admiral Razorbeard also appears in the spinoff game “Rayman Arena” along with a new female counterpart known as “Razorwife”, and in the “Rayman 3” game for Gameboy Advance.
