Rayman is the main protagonist of the series. He has no arms, legs or neck, though he has hands, feet, and a head that are able to move independently of his body.[4] Due to his lack of arms, Rayman is able to throw his fists in long-range punches at his enemies, and in some games is even able to project balls of energy from his hands. He is able to glide by spinning his hair like a helicopter blade. He is typically found wearing white gloves, a red neckerchief on a purple body and a white ring on the chest (the neckerchief was replaced with a hood in the later entries), and yellow trainers (again, slightly modified in the later games). He is voiced by David Gasman, Steve Perkinson and Douglas Rand in the video games and by Billy West in the animated series.
