'''Red Lums''' are items from ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|Rayman 2]]'', its remakes, and ''[[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc|Rayman 3]]''.  Along with [[Yellow Lum|Yellow Lums]], Red Lums are one of the two major [[Lum|Lums]] featured in the games.

==Description==
==Description==
Red Lums resemble red, glowing orbs.  In ''Rayman 2'' they are similar to red versions of [[Yellow Lum]]s, but in ''[[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc|Rayman 3]]'', they resemble atoms, apart from cutscenes where they are in their original form with wings. This atom-like appearance recalls the [[Simple Power]]s and [[Double Power]]s from [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'']], which, together with the [[Big Power]]s, were essentially that game's version of Red Lums.

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

Red Lums recover [[Rayman]]'s health. In ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|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-Pirates actually eat them; when Rayman destroys a Robo-Pirate, Red Lums are often found inside them. Similarly, the defeat of a [[Hoodlum]] in ''Rayman 3'' releases a Black Lums. If Rayman uses [[Grimace]] on a Black Lum, it will revert back into a Red Lum. In [[Rayman 2 Forever|the Game Boy Color version of ''Rayman 2'']], a Red Lum completely restores Rayman's health.

In ''[[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc]]'', [[the Glade of Dreams]] is attacked by an army of [[Hoodlum]]s, sack-cloth creatures piloted by [[Black Lum]]s. Each of these Black Lums – including their leader, [[André]] – is a corrupted Red Lum.

Red Lums appear in [[Rayman Raving Rabbids (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman Raving Rabbids'']]. In this game, they resemble red [[Ting]]s. As in ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|Rayman 2]]'', these Red Lums restore [[Rayman]]'s health when he collects them.


In [[Rayman Raving Rabbids (DS)|the Nintendo DS version of ''Rayman Raving Rabbids'']], [[Yellow Lum]]s can be exchanged for heart-shaped Red Lums.
