Lumière is the most welcoming butler in all of France, despite being turned into a candle during the curse. Charming and kind, he is the first to welcome Belle and his father into the castle. He is best friends with Cogsworth, although they do not stop bickering. With the help of his fellow servants, Lumière manages to create the friendship between the Beast and Belle.

Although a rebellious servant, Lumière is always the first to deviate from the rules to bring a little joy in a rather monotonous daily. He also loves to sing and to party, with all good means to brighten the atmosphere.
