'''Lumas''' are [[star|star-like]] creatures that appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. Unlike most Stars, they have a tear drop-like shape, and come in many colors. They are much like [[Power Star]]s, but they are more circular in shape and able to talk.  
'''Lumas''' are [[Star (species)|star]] creatures that first appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. Unlike most Stars, they have a raindrop-like shape and come in many colors, with the most common one being yellow. They are much like [[Power Star]]s, but they are more circular and have the ability to talk. The Lumas are each very friendly and assist [[Mario]] during his quest. Lumas have the ability to transform, from minor planetoids to entire [[galaxy|galaxies]], and according to [[Rosalina]], some Lumas can even transform into Power Stars. They call Rosalina their "mama." Most of them make their home with her in the [[Comet Observatory]], and others live on [[Starship Mario]] following their leader [[Lubba]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Their name comes from "lumen," a unit of measurement of the strength of light and also a Latin word meaning "light," which is a reference to their future as stars. In ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', if the [[Co-Star Luma]] spins one, it emits three [[Star Bit]]s.


==History==
Lumas boast the ability to transform, from minor planetoids to entire galaxies. They seem to acknowledge [[Rosalina]] as their "mama". According to Rosalina, some can transform into [[Power Stars]]. Most of them make their home in the [[Comet Observatory]].  
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario Galaxy''====
[[File:SMG Castle Spin.png|thumb|right|200px|A Luma teaches Mario to spin.]]
In ''Super Mario Galaxy'', various Lumas appear on the Comet Observatory and in different galaxies, and Mario is accompanied by a uniquely [[Baby Luma|apricot-colored Luma]], who was given to him by Rosalina at the beginning of the game. Luma grants Mario the power to do [[spin]]s. While he is the only cream-colored Luma encountered by Mario, the Luma that transformed into the beacon that powers the Comet Observatory is shown to be the same color in [[Rosalina's Story]]'s illustration.


Yellow Lumas transform into [[Sling Star]]s and [[Launch Star]]s and are the most common variety. Red Lumas guard [[Red Star]]s. Green Lumas are the guardians of the [[Trial Galaxies]] and transform into green [[Launch Star]]s and [[Green Star]]s. Blue Lumas transform into [[Pull Star]]s. Pink Lumas transform into pink Launch Stars to get to Hungry Luma galaxies. [[Lumalee]], who is a large, light-blue Luma, hosts the Luma Shop. There is also another type of Luma that is pink, known as the [[Hungry Luma]]. The last type of Luma is the [[Comet Tico]], which has the ability to move [[Prankster Comet]]s. There is also a blackish-brown Luma named [[Polari]], who acts as a guide to Rosalina.
Only one cream-colored Luma is seen; he is known as [[Luma (character)|Luma]], although the Luma that transformed into the comet that Rosalina and the Lumas travel on appears to be cream-coloured in Rosalina's storybook's illustration. He is the Luma that Rosalina gives [[Mario]] in the beginning of the game. Luma grants Mario the power to do [[Spin]]s. Yellow Lumas transform into [[Sling Star]]s and are the most common variety. A few yellow Lumas can transform into [[Launch Star]]s as well. Red Luma guards [[Red Star]]s. Green Lumas are the guardians of the [[Trial Galaxies]] and transform into green [[Launch Star]]s. [[Blue Luma]]s transform into [[Pull Star]]s, and a large Light Blue Luma hosts the [[Luma Shop]]. There is also another type of Luma that are pink in color, known as [[Hungry Luma]]s. They seem to be more physically mature than other Lumas, as they eat heavily as if they are going through a growth spurt. The last type of Luma is a purple Luma that holds the power to move [[Prankster Comet]]s.


In the end, all the Lumas (including Mario's Luma) throw themselves into the massive black hole created by [[Bowser]]'s dying sun to neutralize it. However, Luma is reborn and living on a small planet while it is hinted that the other Lumas will be reborn later.

====''Super Mario Galaxy 2''====
In ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', a Yellow Luma revolves around Rosalina at all times. It has no effect on gameplay.

Lumas also appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Some time before the beginning of the game, [[Bowser]] attacked [[Lubba]]'s ship, and many of the Lumas on board fell down to [[Earth]]. A large number of Lumas are shown to reside in [[Starship Mario]], and their leader is Lubba. Hungry Lumas also appear; this time, they ask to be fed both Star Bits and Coins. Like in the last game, Lumas enjoy being fed [[Star Bit]]s, and may thank the player if they decides to shoot Star Bits at them. There are an exceptionally large species of Luma in the [[Supermassive Galaxy]] as well. Additionally, Mario's companion Baby Luma returns; however, Mario does not seem to remember him, and he finds the baby Luma when he crashlands.
 
====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====
Lumas appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and its [[Nintendo Switch]] port ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'' where they can be seen floating around in the world maps as well as various levels in bonus worlds. Their behavior has not changed from the previous ''Super Mario Galaxy'' games, though the player cannot talk to them.
 
====''Super Mario Odyssey''====
Although Lumas do not physically appear in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', the Galaxy Air logo from ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' featuring a yellow Luma appears on the Racing Outfit. Additionally, concept art from ''[[The Art of Super Mario Odyssey]]'' reveals that a costume based on a yellow Luma was [[List of Super Mario Odyssey pre-release and unused content|planned to appear]] in the game.<ref>Gaming Reinvented. (September 29, 2018).

===''Mario Kart'' series===
====''Mario Kart Wii''====
In ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', when playing as [[Rosalina]], a Yellow Luma hovers around her at all times. It makes tiny noises whenever the player does an aerial trick or gets hit by an explosion or lightning.
{{br}}
 
====''Mario Kart 8'' / ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''====
Although Lumas themselves do not appear physically in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' or ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', a Luma is seen in the logo of [[List of recurring sponsors in the Mario Kart series#Galaxy Air|Galaxy Air]] and a Luma's artwork can be seen on the back of the [[Star Cup]] trophy. Lumas also appear in the scenery of [[Ribbon Road|<small>GBA</small> Ribbon Road]] included in the second DLC pack of the former game.
 
====''Mario Kart Tour''====
[[File:Lumacoins.png|thumb|150px|A Luma made out of coins in ''Mario Kart Tour'']]
In ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', a group of coins in the shape of a Luma appears in the [[Coin Rush (Mario Kart Tour)|Coin Rush]] of [[3DS Rosalina's Ice World]]. The Luma is mostly made up of regular coins, though the eyes are made of [[Blue Coin]]s. A Luma also appears on the [[Luma Parafoil]] and on [[List of badges in Mario Kart Tour|badges]] depicting its emblem or the Galaxy Air logo.


===''Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games''===
In the ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' trailer, when [[Mario]] performs a [[Spin]], Luma comes out of his hat to participate, like he did in the original ''Super Mario Galaxy''. As of yet, it is still unknown is more Lumas will appear in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''.
Yellow Lumas appear in ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]'' in the [[Dream Spacewalk]] event. Here, they aid the athletes in defeating [[Dino Piranha]]. They first transform into Launch Stars that send the characters into space. Following this, they periodically appear to create rings that the athletes must all pass through in order to damage Dino Piranha.


===''Fortune Street''===
==Names in Other Languages==
In ''[[Fortune Street]]'', Lumas appear in the unlockable [[Good Egg Galaxy]] board. A Luma can also be a customizable mascot for the player and is unlocked by placing first in all ''Super Mario'' boards in the Standard Tour.

===''Mario Tennis'' series===
====''Mario Tennis Open''====
[[File:MTOLumapeachpalace.jpg|thumb|Luma in action in ''Mario Tennis Open'']]
A yellow Luma makes a debut as a playable character in ''[[Mario Tennis Open]]''. He is a Technique-type player and can be unlocked by completing level 3 of the [[Galaxy Rally]] special game, where, in the special game, he rallies the ball against players. His racquet is turquoise with a picture of a Luma on it. Red, green, and turquoise Lumas appear as line judges in the [[Galaxy Arena]] court. Also, if the player uses Luma in the Galaxy Rally game, the opponent Luma is blue.
 
====''Mario Tennis Aces''====

Also, when one of the characters reaches the finish line and is congratulated by Rosalina, a yellow Luma, a pink Luma, and a blue Luma appear as well.
 
==='' Mario Golf'' series===
====''Mario Golf: World Tour''====
Lumas made their debut appearance in the ''[[Mario Golf (series)|Mario Golf]]'' series in ''[[Mario Golf: World Tour]]''. After players purchase the Star Pack and receive Rosalina as a playable character, Lumas appear alongside her in her post-hole animations. A yellow one is seen as she enters the tee box, when she earns a [[Star Coin]] or [[Moon Coin]], and when she is displayed with the player's score if she was played as in a tournament. Although they are not playable characters, their ball and golf clubs are available for [[Mii]]s to use. A Luma costume can be won if the player succeeds in a Character Costume Challenge in Yoshi Lake.

{{quote|Rosalina & Luma Launch into Battle!|Introduction|"Comet Observatory" Trailer}}
Lumas appear with various different colors alongside Rosalina as a singular new fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''. They function as a team; whenever Rosalina attacks, the Luma also attacks, allowing for combo attacks and for attacking from afar if Luma is separated from Rosalina. Lumas have their own HP, and if they take enough damage, they get defeated. Lumas can also get defeated by being knocked off of the stage to the point where they cannot recover. After a few seconds, another Luma appears near Rosalina. If Rosalina gets KO'd, the Luma vanishes and a new one appears when Rosalina respawns. Lumas can attack even if Rosalina is stunned by other attacks such as grabbing, and their attacks depend on what input the player performs as Rosalina. By using their standard special attack, [[Luma Shot]], the Luma can be sent away from Rosalina to fight, and by using the move again it is called back to her. [[Kirby]]'s copy ability version of Luma Shot summons a Luma for the move, which instantly disappears after the move's completion.
 
There are six possible colorations for the Lumas: yellow, green, blue, red, apricot (the color of the Luma that joins Mario in the ''Super Mario Galaxy'' games), and dark brown with blue eyes (the colors of Polari).
 
Lumas return alongside Rosalina as veteran fighters in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Compared to their appearances in ''Super Smash Bros. for 3DS'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', Lumas get launched farther by attacks in general, making them easier to KO. The yellow Luma also appears as a support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]], which equips a fighter with a [[Launch Star|Super Launch Star]] at the start of battles.
 
===''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''===
While no Lumas appear physically in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'', the [[Battle Card (Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam)|Yoshi + Mario LV2 Duo Card]] shows artwork of a yellow Luma alongside [[Mario]] and [[Yoshi]] from ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''. This Character Card temporarily increases the number of Star Points earned per successful action by 70% in a battle.
 
===''Mario Sports Superstars''===
Due to ''[[Mario Sports Superstars]]'' reusing Rosalina's golf animations from ''Mario Golf: World Tour'', Lumas reappear in this game in the same capacity as ''Mario Golf: World Tour'', appearing in her post-hole animations. Additionally, Luma themed gear appears in this game as an alternative choice exclusive to Rosalina.
 
===''Dr. Mario World''===
[[File:DrMarioWorld - Sprite Luma.png|50px|thumb|left|Luma's mugshot in ''Dr. Mario World'']]
As an overall species, Lumas make their [[Dr. Mario (series)|''Dr. Mario'' series]] debut in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'', where one Luma known as '''Dr. Luma''' appears as a playable character. Dr. Luma is a reward in [[World 8 (Dr. Mario World)|World 8]]'s special stage since version 1.2.0, though beating the stage prior to the update will allow him to be obtainable through the doc box.
 
Dr. Luma's skill is to shift the [[virus]]es in the lowest rows so that they collide with an object above them, where it is represented by a sparkling image of a Luma on screen, followed by multiple Lumas flying across the lowest rows, in which the affected rows are the 6 lowest rows in stage mode, the 5 lowest rows at level 1 in versus mode and the 10 lowest rows in level 2 or higher in versus mode. In versus mode, the skill charges faster at higher levels starting from level 3. Viruses that are contained inside objects like [[ice]] and [[Brick Block]]s can also be shifted, but other objects are not affected. Prior to version 2.3.0, this skill would do nothing if the skill is used when every possible virus in the lowest rows cannot be shifted further, but since then it will eliminate one random virus or object instead ([[capsule]]s are not affected). In versus mode, Dr. Luma possesses the highest possible defense value, where it has 80% defense against two-line bomb attacks.
{{br}}
 
===''Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope''===
Before the events of ''[[Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope]]'', the Lumas met the [[Rabbid]]s during their teleporting escapades, but [[Cursa]] was drawn to the [[Comet Observatory]], where it would attack [[Rosalina]], the Lumas, and some Rabbids that were there. While Rosalina was fending off Cursa, she was captured and merged with Cursa. The Rabbids and Lumas were saved, but flung far away and merged into a new species named [[Spark (Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope)|Spark]]s. Cursa then created an army of corrupted Rabbids and controlled minions of [[Bowser]], along with the [[Spark Hunters]] to lead them.
 
===''The Super Mario Bros. Movie''===
While no normal Lumas appear in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', [[Lumalee]] appears as a captive in Bowser's Castle.
 
==General information==
===Physical appearance and traits===
Lumas come in a variety of different colors, some of which have abilities to help Mario or Luigi on his adventure.

==References==
==Trivia==
<references/>
*''[[Paper Mario]]'' featured a similar species, called [[Star Kid]]s. Like the Lumas, the Star Kids were young stars, who were raised on a special place to become real stars someday. They also possessed magical abilities, like the Lumas, and a very similar, childish behavior.
* The name Luma comes from the Latin ''lumin'', which means "light."  It is a reference to their similarity to the [[Power Star]]s and their future as [[Star (outer space)|stars]].
* Although the Luma that appears next to Rosalina in Mario Kart Wii is a Yellow Luma, Polari was usually the Luma at her side in Super Mario Galaxy.
* all luma are apparently female
