A '''Purple Lum''' is one of the many types of [[Lums]] that are found in [[the Glade of Dreams]]. These lums assure the cohesion of the world; without them, nothing would be solid or visible. Unlike the other Lums, this kind is shaped like a ring; rather than being collectible, they can be grabbed and used as hook by [[Rayman]], so that he may cross large areas without touching the ground. Like [[Super Yellow Lum]]s, Purple Lums have eyes.

''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]'' is the first game in which Purple Lums are names. In this game, Rayman gains the ability to swing from Purple Lums by absorbing a [[Silver Lum]] which was granted to him by [[Ly]], after he freed her from her prison in [[the Fairy Glade]].

In [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]], objects known as [[flying ring]]s appeared. These rings are essentially this game's version of Purple Lums; the function in the exact same way, and appear very similar (but Purple Lums' wings are insectile, while flying rings' wings are more bird-like). This game also features black-eyed flying rings; these are red versions which sink when grabbed, often putting [[Rayman]] in danger. [[Rayman]] must receive a [[Silver Lum]] from [[Betilla the Fairy]] in order to use flying rings.

These rings are essentially this game's version of Purple Lums; the function in the exact same way, and appear very similar (but Purple Lums' wings are insectile, while flying rings' wings are more bird-like). This game also features evil flying rings; these are ugly, red versions which sink when grabbed, often putting Rayman in danger. Rayman must receive a [[Silver Lum]] from [[Betilla the Fairy]] in order to use flying rings.
Purple Lums also appear in ''[[Rayman M]]'', ''[[Rayman Arena]]'' and in ''[[Rayman Rush]]'', where all of the characters can use them. They lack eyes in all the game versions, except in ''[[Rayman Rush]]''.


Purple Lums also appear in ''[[Rayman M]]'', where all of the characters can use them. They lack eyes in this game.
In ''[[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc|Rayman 3]]'', items known as [[flying hook]]s appear. These [[Hoodlum]]-made contraptions work in the same way as Purple Lums, but [[Rayman]] needs the [[Lockjaw]] [[Laser-Washing Powder]] to use them. In the [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance adaptation of ''Rayman 3'']], [[flying hook]]s wear metal crowns.

In [[Rayman Raving Rabbids (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman Raving Rabbids'']], Purple Lums reappear, and look very similar to how they appeared in [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']]. They now have a greyish colour. In the Symbian version, they look almost equal to the flying rings of ''[[Rayman 1]]''.


In [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance adaptation of ''Rayman 3'']], Purple Lums look very different from their previous appearances. They are larger, and while they lack eyes and wings, they now wear metal crowns.
In [[Rayman (Game Boy Color)|the Game Boy Color versions of ''Rayman'']] [[Rayman 2 Forever|and ''Rayman 2'']], the Purple Lums move around freely in one location, ready for [[Rayman]] to grab onto them. In [[Fiery Depths]] and [[Dark Legacy]], red and black grabbing rings can be found. When [[Rayman]] grabs onto, they go and stay up. When he lets go, they go down. They can also hurt [[Rayman]].


In [[Rayman Raving Rabbids (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman Raving Rabbids'']], Purple Lums reappear, and look very similar to how they appeared in the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3''. They now have a greyish colour.
In [[Rayman Raving Rabbids (DS)|the Nintendo DS version of ''Rayman Raving Rabbids'']], Purple Lums can only be found much later in the game.  


In [[Rayman (Game Boy Color)|the Game Boy Color versions of ''Rayman 1'']] [[Rayman 2 Forever|and ''Rayman 2'']], the Purple Lums move around freely in one location, ready for [[Rayman]] to grab onto them. There is one grabbing ring that looks red and black. It goes up and down. When Rayman grabs onto, it goes and stays up. When he lets go, it goes down. It can hurt Rayman and is located in [[Fiery Depths]] and [[Dark Legacy]].
