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 (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]]. | A '''Lum''' is a small body (or shard) of magical energy.
