I am Lumina... Lumina Flowlight. It's nice to meet you!!


— Lumina Flowlight, Sonic Shuffle

Lumina Flowlight (ルミナ・フロウライト Rumina Furouraito?) is a character that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. She is half of Maginaryworld's ruler, Illumina, and represents the positive feelings which give people the ability to dream. After her creation, Lumina served as the protector of the Precioustone. When it was shattered by Void, her other half, Lumina strived to restore it with the aid of Sonic the Hedgehog and his friends, which ultimately led to her reuniting with Void.

History[]

Past[]

Lumina was born when Illumina lost sight of herself and her dream which caused an internal turmoil that split her in two separate beings: Lumina, the representation of the positive aspects of dreams, and Void, the representation of the negative aspects. Lumina, however, could not recall her time as her original form and instead believed she was a subordinate of Illumina and that the two of them protected the Precioustone together.[2]

Following her creation, Lumina assumed the role of Guardian Fairy.[3] When the Perfect Precioustone was shattered by Void, Lumina believed this caused Illumina to lose her powers and become imprisoned in a faraway world.[4] With Maginaryworld now in danger of being destroyed by Void's darkness without the Precioustone's power, Lumina send a message out to everybody in other worlds dreaming of Maginaryworld in search of a hero with courage and heart who could help restore Maginaryworld and save it from certain doom.[3][5]

Sonic Shuffle[]

In Sonic Shuffle, an answer to her message, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Amy were transported to Maginaryworld. However, with only so few having come, Lumina feared people had forgotten about dreaming and Maginaryworld.[5]

Meeting with Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Amy in the Temple of Light, Lumina introduced herself and Maginaryworld while explaining why she had brought them here and everything that had happened. She then pleaded for their help to recover the Precioustones and restore the Perfect Precioustone. Fortunately, Sonic and his friends gave her their full support.

With Sonic and his friends behind her, Lumina took the group to the different dream worlds within Maginaryworld with the Precioustones and acted as their guide. In each of these worlds, Lumina and her friends found the Precioustone fragments when Void appeared and shattered the Precioustones further. Whenever they got a Precioustone, Lumina would appear in a vision before Sonic and his friends with Void where she would tell Void to stop his actions, explain about Illumina and Void, and express her doubt about the future of dreams.

Lumina and Void

Lumina and Void rejoining, from Sonic Shuffle.

After bringing all the Precioustones back to the Temple of Light, Lumina saw Void heading there to steal the Precioustone. When they got to the Temple to stop Void, Lumina wanted to know his motives, but could not understand that Void just wished to be whole again to end his loneliness. After they defeated Void, Lumina gave into despair as the Precioustone was not recovering and Illumina remained lost, and she questioned whether her actions were the right thing to do. However, Lumina was brought back to her senses after Sonic found Void as a gem, and he and his friends gave her a pep talk about the balance between positive and negative emotion being necessary for people to create and attain their dreams. Lumina then took Void's gem and entered the reformed Precioustone where Void was restored and Lumina accepted him, making them remerge into Illumina.

Personality[]

Lumina is a young girl who is full of energy. Despite her childish looks, she talks in a very mature and rational manner. She is stubborn and does not give up no matter how bad a situation is.[1] After only a few answered her message, however, Lumina began to worry that people had given up dreaming and forgot about Maginaryworld which she feared would leave her all alone.[5] Over time, Lumina's doubts grew until she lost herself to despair, but she regained her faith with Sonic and the others' help.

Initially, Lumina rejected negative feelings as a part of dreams as she only saw the destruction they wrought. However, she eventually accepted negative feelings as a necessity for dreams to flourish, which in turn let her accept Void and become whole again.

Powers and abilities[]

Lumina has the ability to open portals that lead to each of the different worlds within Maginaryworld. She is also capable of flight and teleportation.

Lumina Flowlight, from Sonic the Hedgehog #92.

In the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics, Lumina appeared as a part of their adaptation of Sonic Shuffle. Like in the game, she was created from Illumina when the goddess lost herself in self-doubt. She enlisted the help of Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Amy to help her restore the Master Precioustone after Void shattered it and was eventually returned to her original being.
