Baby Luma
Template:LLquote Template:Character-infobox Luma is a major character in the Super Mario Galaxy game, for the Wii. Like many Nintendo characters, he is named after his species.
The Search for Mama
Luma's story begins when he gets separated from his mother. He finds Rosalina and asks her to help him find his mama. Rosalina repairs a rusty, old ship and together, she and Luma begin a long search for his mama. One day they find a comet which Luma says his mother travels on. However there is no sign of Luma's mama. Rosalina and Luma finaly give up hope of finding Luma's mother. However, Rosalina soon discovers that buried in the comet are tools and building material. Together, the duo build a small settlement. After it is completed it seems rather big for just two people. Not long after, another Luma appeared traveling on a comet. Luma and the newcomer fought over Rosalina's love. More and more lumas fly out of the commet shouting "My mama" at Rosalina. Rosalina adopted all the Lumas and became their mother. One night Luma finds Rosalina crying, he comforts her and asks her why she is crying. Rosalina tells the Luma that her mother is dead and even though she knew, she refused to believe it until then. Rosalina thanked Luma and the two hugged each other.
Later on, Luma transformed into the Comet Observatory to provide a new home for the Lumas and Rosalina. However he was re-born and and nurtured for by Rosalina until he became a full grown Luma again.
Helping Mario
Sometime later, Princess Peach found Luma and planned to give him as a present to Mario. However, just as Mario was arriving, Bowser kidnapped Peach by hoisting her castle into space. Luma escapes to a nearby planet in the Gateway Galaxy. Meanwhile, Mario is attacked by a minnion of Bowser and sent to the Luma's hiding spot. Luma and his friends convince Mario to play a game of hide-and-go-seek with them. When Mario finds them Rosalina appears and tells Mario that in order to save Princess Peach, the now broken Comet Observatory needs to be fixed using Grand Stars so it can fly to where Bowser is keeping Peach. Luma decides to help Mario and, bestowing Mario the power to Star Spin, the two begin the hunt for the Grand Stars. Traveling from galaxy to galaxy the two track down the Grand stars and slowly, the Comet Observatory becomes more powerful.
When the last Star is recovered, the Comet Observatory flys to the center of the universe where Bowser has created a huge sun. After a final duel, Mario and Luma defeat Bowser, destroy the sun and rescue Princess Peach. However, Bowser's dying sun creates a huge black hole and all the Lumas including Luma fly into it to stop it. Before being destroyed, Luma waves sadly goodbye to Mario and then dives. However, it is revealed Luma has been reborn, as all Lumas do, on another planet and is waiting for Mario's return.
