A '''Lum''' is a small body (or shard) of magical energy. Lums are one of the most frequently recurring elements of the [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'' series]]; their first confirmed appearance is in ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]''. There are many different types of Lums, each with their own unique functions determined by their colour. They usually appear as small lights with insect-like wings, though their appearances can vary widely: some have eyes or faces, some are shaped like rings, and some have a crystalline or metallic appearance. The name ''Lum'' is derived from the French word 'lumière', which means 'light'. Most Lums are collectibles, and must be picked up in order to activate their unique effect; however, some Lums are not. The Lums in the Game Boy Advance games often resemble [[Ting]]s. In ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', [[Lum (UbiArt games)|a new type of Lum]] appears. These Lums seem to exist outside the colour system used in the previous games, and act as a currency and energy source in the [[Glade of Dreams]].

Line 16:

* [[Super Red Lum]] – gives [[Rayman]] a new [[life]], offering him an additional chance to restart from the most recent checkpoint.

* [[Purple Lum]] – ring-shaped Lums with eyes; [[Rayman]] can grab them and swing from them with his [[magic fist]].

* [[Blue Lum]] – refills [[Rayman]]'s oxygen meter when collected underwater; briefly enables [[Super ~~Helicopter~~|flight]] when collected on dry land.

* [[Blue Lum]] – refills [[Rayman]]'s oxygen meter when collected underwater; briefly enables [[Super helicopter|flight]] when collected on dry land.

* [[Super Blue Lum]] – enables [[Rayman]] to [[Super ~~Helicopter~~|fly freely]] for the duration of an entire level.

* [[Super Blue Lum]] – enables [[Rayman]] to [[Super helicopter|fly freely]] for the duration of an entire level.

* [[Light blue Lum]] – provides [[Rayman]]'s bumper car with a boost upon collecting three.

* [[Green Lum]] – a checkpoint; if [[Rayman]] dies, and has some health remaining (aside from ''[[Rayman 3D]]''), he reappears where he last collected one.
