| Lumière and [[Cogsworth]] are assigned to patrol the castle and keep watch for intruders, forcing [[Roxas]] and [[Xion]] to avoid their sight. Lumière and the other servants were convinced that if they found the [[Xaldin|mystery man]] the [[Beast]] and [[Belle]] would make up and help the Beast and all of his servants revert to human form.
| | Lumiere's role in ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'' is similar to that of [[Cogsworth]]. Both of them patrol the castle and keep watch for intruders, forcing [[Roxas]] and [[Xion]] to avoid their sight. |

| Under [[Xaldin]]'s influence, Beast locks his servants in the {{c|Dungeon|bc}}. After [[Sora]], [[Donald Duck]], and [[Goofy]] release them, Lumière and the others guide the trio through a shortcut to the West Hall so that they can speak with the Beast.
| | ====First Visit==== |
| | | After the events of ''Kingdom Hearts'', the world of [[Beast's Castle]] was restored, Beast locked his servants in the '''Dungeon''' after [[Xaldin]] came and tried to turn him into a [[Heartless]]. When [[Sora]], [[Donald]], and [[Goofy]] came, the servants were freed and helped Sora save Beast from turning into a Heartless. Lumiere and the others showed Sora, Donald, and Goofy a shortcut to the '''Beast's Room'''. |
| After Sora defeats the [[Shadow Stalker and Dark Thorn|Dark Thorn]], Lumière and Cogsworth tell about the enchantment on the castle's inhabitants.
| |
| | |
| When Xaldin interrupts the Beast and Belle's ball and steals the Beast's rose, Lumière, Cogsworth, and [[Mrs. Potts]] tell the heroes the story behind the rose, and about how the Beast must learn to love and earn love in return before the last petal falls from the rose to break the enchantment.
| |
| | |
| Lumière is last seen observing the romantic dance between the Beast and Belle after Xaldin's defeat. Some time after [[Xemnas]]'s defeat, Lumière, along with rest of the castle's inhabitants, returned to his human form.

| ==Other appearances== | | ====Second Visit==== |
| ===''Kingdom Hearts''=== | | When [[Belle]] and Beast try to form a party to forget about what happened, Xaldin attacked again, and stole the Beast's precious rose. Then Lumiere, Cogsworth and [[Mrs. Potts]] told the heroes about the importance of the rose - Beast's last hope of finding love before the last petal falls from the rose. |
| Lumière appears on Belle's Station in Sora's [[Dive to the Heart]].

|
| ==Design==
| | Lumiere is then last seen observing the romantic dance between the Beast and Belle after Xaldin was defeated and the rose was returned safely. It is assumed that after Sora defeated [[Xemnas]] at [[The World that Never Was]], Lumiere reclaimed his human form (considering that the Beast recovered his human form). |
| Because of the curse, Lumière takes the form of a gold, three-branched candelabrum, with the circular base acting as his foot, which he hops around on, and the central column acting as his body. The two side branches of the candelabrum act as his arms and are attached to the central column just below the base of the main candlestick; Lumière's head. There is a short, white candle in each of these side arms, both of which are usually lit. The main candlestick is also white and lit, but is much longer and has a small amount of wax melting at the top, resembling his hair. Lumière has brown eyebrows, oval-shaped, close-set eyes, and straight, white teeth. The base of the candlestick acts as both Lumière's neck and his lower jaw.

| ''Lumière'' is the French word for "[[light]]", apt for his role as a candlestick.

| ==Personality== | | ==Personality== |
| Lumière is the slightly rebellious and flaunty friend of Cogsworth, and servant to the Beast. Lumière is the exact opposite of the strict Cogsworth, instead having a more carefree attitude. Like the other servants, Lumière is hopeful in Belle, believing she will be the one to break the enchanted spell.
| | Lumiere is a kind-hearted, yet rebellious, servant of the Beast. He has a habit of disobeying his master's rules that results in controversy, but the Beast often turns to him for advice. |

| Lumière has no specific abilities, but he is able to light the three lamps in the Secret Passage in Beast's Castle, with the help of Cogsworth, alongside Sora and Mrs. Potts. Lumiere asks ''"Is this the spot?"'' before lighting a lamp. He also lights the way in the Dark Hall in Beast's Castle so that Sora can see better in it.

| ==Origin== | | ==Quotes== |
| Lumière originated from Disney's 1991 animated musical film, ''Beauty and the Beast'', voiced by the late Jerry Orbach. In the film, Lumière and the other castle's residents were turned into household objects (in Lumière's case, a candelabra) by an enchantress as punishment for the Prince's cold heart. Many years later, Belle's father, Maurice, stumbles in the castle to escape wild wolves, and Lumière and the other servants warmly welcomes him. However, the prince (now known as the Beast) discovers this and locks [[Maurice]] away in the dungeon while Lumière and the others sadly watch. When Belle comes to the castle in search for her father, Lumière guides Belle to dungeon to see him. After Belle offers to be the Beast's prisoner in place of her father, Lumière advises his master to show Belle to her bedroom. On the night that was Belle was supposed to have dinner with Beast, Lumière and Mrs. Potts attempt to teach Beast how to act like a gentleman, a task that was quite difficult. When Belle refuses to go, she later journeys into the dining room and Lumière performs a song to entertain her.

| Later, Lumière and Cogsworth provide Belle with a tour of the castle, warning her that she is free to go anywhere but the West Wing. Throughout the rest of the film, Lumière and the other servants observe Beast and Belle's budding romance, giving them hope that curse will be broken and they will revert into humans. However, Beast releases Belle so she could go care for her sick father, prompting Cogsworth to inform Lumière and the others of the sad news. When [[Gaston]] storms the castle with angry villagers, Lumière and the others defend it. Once Beast and Belle confess their love for each other, the curse was broken and Lumière and the castle's residents transform back into humans. At the ball that was being held to celebrate, Lumière and Cogsworth got into another argument about who foretold the fact that Belle would break to spell first, which quickly escalates into a brawl.
| | ==Trivia== |
| {{Party}}
| | *Lumiere's name is the French word for "[[light]]", apt for his role as a candlestick, though in the French language, this word is grammatically feminine. It may be a reference to the Lumière brothers who created the first moving pictures. |
| | *Jerry Orbach, the original voice actor for Lumiere is dead, however, archived recordings of his voice were put in the game, which is why Lumiere is still credited to be voiced by Jerry Orbach. |
| | *Lumiere's remark about Belle, "''She is rather unique, isn't she?''", is a possible reference to the original film's villain, Gaston, who openly believes Belle to be unique. |
