'''Red Lums''' are collectable shards of energy which appear in several games in the [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'' series]], most notably ''[[Rayman 2]]'' and ''[[Rayman 3]]''. They serve to replenish [[Rayman]]'s health. Along with [[Yellow Lum]]s, Red Lums are one of the two major [[Lum]] types featured in the games.

Red Lums take the form of red, glowing orbs. In ''[[Rayman 2]]'', they resemble red versions of [[Yellow Lum]]s, having the appearance of orbs of red light with wings.

In ''[[Rayman 3]]'', they resemble atoms, having a red orb in the centre orbited by smaller red dots. In some instances they appear in their original winged form, such as when they are transformed from [[Black Lum]]s using the [[grimace]] and when they appear in cutscenes. The atom-like appearance recalls the [[Simple Power]]s and [[Double Power]]s from [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]], which, together with the [[Big Power]]s, were essentially that game's version of Red Lums.

Red Lums are the embodiment of vitality, and the origin of all life in the [[Glade of Dreams]].

Red Lums take the form of red, glowing orbs. In ''[[Rayman 2]]'', they resemble red versions of [[Yellow Lum]]s, having the appearance of orbs of red light with wings.
Red Lums recover [[Rayman]]'s health. In ''[[Rayman 2]]'', if [[Rayman]] is injured, nearby Red Lums automatically approach him. [[Robo-Pirate]]s love Red Lums and collect every Red Lum they can find. It seems that the [[Robo-Pirate]]s actually eat them; when [[Rayman]] destroys a [[Robo-Pirate]], Red Lums are often found inside them. In the PlayStation version, [[Razorbeard|Admiral Razorbeard]] eats a Red Lum instead of the [[Yellow Lum]] he eats in the other versions, due to there being only 800 [[Yellow Lum]]s instead of the usual 1000.


In ''[[Rayman 3]]'', they resemble atoms, having a red orb in the centre orbited by smaller red dots. In some instances they appear in their original winged form, such as when they are transformed from [[Black Lum]]s using the [[Grimace]] and when they appear in cutscenes. The atom-like appearance recalls the [[Simple Power]]s and [[Double Power]]s from [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]], which, together with the [[Big Power]]s, were essentially that game's version of Red Lums.
In every version of the game (barring the PlayStation and Game Boy Color releases), touching certain Red Lums in a group starts a countdown. The rest of the Lums must be picked up quickly or they will vanish when the timer expires.


Red Lums are the embodiment of vitality, and the origin of all life in [[the Glade of Dreams]].
===In ''[[Rayman 2 Forever]]''===
[[File:Gbc2 35.PNG|frame|right|class=sprite|Red Lums, as seen in ''[[Rayman 2 Forever]]''.]]
In [[Rayman 2 Forever|the Game Boy Color version of ''Rayman 2'']], a Red Lum completely restores [[Rayman]]'s health. There are also [[Super Red Lum|bigger versions of the Red Lumz]], which give [[Rayman]] an extra [[life]].


Red Lums are unique in that, if spooked, a Red Lum will undergo a transformation into a [[Black Lum]] – a major part of ''[[Rayman 3]]'''s plot.

In ''[[Rayman 3]]'', the [[Glade of Dreams]] is attacked by an army of [[Hoodlum]]s, sack-cloth creatures piloted by [[Black Lum]]s. Each of these [[Black Lum]]s – including their leader, [[André]] – is a corrupted Red Lum. If [[Rayman]] uses the [[grimace]] on a [[Black Lum]], it will revert into a Red Lum.
