Robo-Pirates

"Rayman, look what the pirates have done to our world... A planet of anguish and pain, haunted by evil. A dark place, teeming with fierce monsters."

- Ly the Fairy, Rayman 2: The Great Escape

"As you know, the pirates broke the Heart of the World into pieces. They want to make us all slaves and keep all the riches to themselves. They are soulless monsters, good at only one thing: stealing our dreams that they will never share."

- The Knowledge of the World, Rayman 2: The Great Escape

The Robo-Pirates (also known as Henchmen and the Robo-Pirate army) are the primary group of enemies in Rayman 2: The Great Escape and Rayman 2 Forever.

This army of robotic pirates, led by the evil Admiral Razorbeard, came from somewhere in the space to conquer the Glade of Dreams. They use flying ships to transform and fight. Many of the ships also double as big flying prisons for captives. The most colossal ship, Buccaneer, is a base of operations where also Razobeard lives.

There are various types of Robo-Pirates, with different strategies, weapons and weaknesses. They usually wear typical pirate clothes, with one eye completely black, as if they have an eye patch. One of their hand is hollow - this is where they fire their bullets from. However, only some of Robo-Pirates looks like that.
