First, you must know that the universe is made of energy. Everything that moves around you, everything that lives and thinks is given life by the tiny magical lights which we call... Lums.

A Lum is a small body (or shard) of magical energy which is found in the Rayman games starting from Rayman 2. Generally, there are six different types of Lums that are determined by colour, though in Rayman 3 there is the existence of Black Lums. They usually appear as small lights with insect-like wings, though in Rayman M and the Game Boy Advance version of Rayman 3, Lums look like crystal balls. The name is derived from the French word 'lumière', which means 'light'. Lums in Rayman Kart look like piles of gold money and there are roughly two million of them. In Rayman Origins, 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.
