'''Luminoth Statues''' are [[Luminoth]] [[Luminoth Technology|built]] structures placed strategically in Luminoth strongholds throughout [[Aether]]. These statues are usually depictions of honored Luminoth or interactive sculptures that work in conjunction with [[Bomb Slot]]s, [[Spinner]] devices, [[Spider Ball Track|Magnetic Rail Tracks]], or [[Luminoth Laser Emitter]]s. They often feature luminescent detailing, elegantly mixing raw materials and energy-producing elements. The statues can take the form of full-body depictions or busts, and are often stylized. They usually wear single long horn, which might be some kind of armor or pleasing aesthetic addition.

While most statues are primarily decorative, some have a measure of functionality and can be manipulated to reach new areas, [[Missile Expansion]]s, and other upgrades, most notably in the submerged temple of [[Torvus Bog]].

While most statues are primarily decorative, some have a measure of functionality and can be manipulated to reach new areas, [[Missile Expansion]]s, and other upgrades, most notably in the submerged temple of [[Torvus Bog]]. The [[Luminoth Temple Security Station]]s found in the [[Controller Access]] areas in [[Agon Wastes]], Torvus Bog, and [[Sanctuary Fortress]] are also modeled after the Luminoth form.


Most of these statues have similar counterparts in [[Dark Aether]], though they are non-functioning and often of a different color scheme.
