These Lums carry a ring and assure the cohesion of the world; without them, nothing would be solid or visible. Unlike the other [[Lum]]s, they are not collectible. Because of their ring, they can be grabbed and used as a hook by [[Rayman]], so that he may cross large areas without touching the ground. Like [[Super Yellow Lum]]s, Purple Lums have eyes. | ||
They fulfill the same role as the [[flying ring]]s from [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]]. The console versions of ''[[Rayman 3]]'' replace the Purple Lum with the [[flying hook]], which can only be tethered onto with the [[LockJaw]]. ''[[Rayman Origins]]'' and ''[[Rayman Legends]]'' use various means to replicate the swinging motif, such as [[Swingman|Swingmen]], [[liana]]s, ropes, chains and even bearded [[Fakir]]s. | They fulfill the same role as the [[flying ring]]s from [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]].

The Purple Lums appear in all iterations of this title. They function the same as in ''[[Rayman 2]]'', but their appearance varies between versions. In ''[[Rayman M]]'', although they are called Purple Lums, they resemble [[flying ring]]s. In [[Rayman Arena|the GameCube and Xbox versions of ''Rayman Arena'']] there is a small tether connecting the Purple Lums to their ring.
