'''Lums''' are beings of pure energy who frequently appear in the [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'' series]].

The Lums in ''[[Rayman Origins]]'' do not fit into the system of colours used for the Lums in the other games. Each Lum in ''Origins'' can alternate between yellow and red, but they do not have the same effects or appearances as [[Yellow Lum]]s or [[Red Lum]]s. The number of Lums in ''Origins'' is ~~never defined, but seems practically~~ unlimited, ~~much like~~ the [[Ting]]s in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'']]; however, ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]'' makes it clear that there are only 1,000 Yellow Lums in existence, and they are currently contained in [[the Heart of the World]] at the time of ''Origins''. The Lums that appear in ''Rayman Origins'' are clearly sentient creatures, and have arms, legs, wings, eyes and mouths; in the other games, most Lums are simply orbs of energy with wings.

Each Lum in ''Origins'' can alternate between yellow and red, but they do not have the same effects or appearances as [[Yellow Lum]]s or [[Red Lum]]s. The maximum number of Lums in ''Origins'' is probably unlimited. The known maximum in the whole game is 22296, although it is based on that the maximum score for each level would be 999 - if it is possible to earn that many though - because this number is shown at the level-end screen even if the player(s) collected more lums. The [[Ting]]s in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'']] are also in an unlimited number; however, ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]'' makes it clear that there are only 1,000 Yellow Lums in existence, and they are currently contained in [[the Heart of the World]] at the time of ''Origins''.

In ''Rayman Origins'', the player often comes across large, crowned Lums called [[Lum King]]s. Collecting a Lum King causes all the Lums in the area to sing and dance for a few seconds, while their colour changes from its usual yellow to red. While in this state, each Lum is worth two. Lums can be found floating freely or hidden inside [[nenuphar]]s and [[Bulb-o-Lum]]s. They can also be gained by bubblizing and defeating enemies. At the end of each level, the heroes give their Lums to [[the Magician]], who grants them [[Electoon]]s in exchange. At the end of the game, it is revealed that the Magician has been using these Lums to power the mechanical army he built in the [[Moody Clouds]] to take over [[the Glade of Dreams]] and rid it of the [[Polokus|Bubble Dreamer]].
