Lemmings (Lemmings)

Lemmings are the main protagonists in the Lemmings franchise. They are small rodents who are seemingly unlimited in number. Their catchphrase that they say is "Let's Go!" upon a level starting.
==Appearance==
Lemmings are small rodents which look weird compared to the real ones. They have green hair and blue robes with white edges on top of it and their sleeve ends, muzzles, large toeless feet and fingerless hands. Originally, their eyes were oval-shaped, they looked tubby, they had a mouth which is hidden under their pointy muzzles and their haircut is shaped like a bowl which is a bit messy. Currently, their design sports large round eyes, a mouth which is always seen on their muzzles, and plant-like hair (similar type to Cosmo the Seedrian). In Lemmings Touch, they were taller than before and darker coloured. The PS2/PSP version added the toes on their feet and appeared slightly shorter. In 3D Lemmings, they were taller and their bodies were shaped like a potato which doesn't look like their robes.
==Behaviour==
They have suicidal tendencies such as not being careful walking into any types of traps or hazards. The aim is to guide them to the exit using the right skills. They aren't mentally or physically strong. They don't have lots of sense plus they are easily destroyed or beaten by any sort of trap.
==Types of Lemmings (includes Lemmings Revolution)==
===Water Lemmings===
Water Lemmings are different types of lemmings. They have blue hair and white bodies and do not drown in water.
===Acid Lemmings===
Acid Lemmings have green bodies and red hair and capable of surviving in acid.
===Reverse Lemmings===
Reverse Lemmings are featured in the 2-player modes of Lemmings & Oh No! More Lemmings. The second player uses them. Like Tribe Lemmings, they are coloured differently. They are seen with blue hair and green clothing.
==The Tribes==
The Tribes are a group of lemmings that live and work in different Areas of Lemming Island in Lemmings 2: The Tribes. The 12 tribes in each of these pieces are there such as Space, Polar, Classic, Shadow, Outdoor, Sports, Circus, Egyptian, Beach, CaveLem, Medieval and Highland Tribe. Each piece will have a different skill set for them. Also, they are seen in All New World of Lemmings (Lemmings 3: Chronicles in the US) and 3D Lemmings.
===Mischievous Lemmings===
Beware, not all Lemmings are nice. Mischievous Lemmings are the evil clones of the Lemmings. If they go into the exit, it is game over. They sport red hair with red devil-like horns on it, purple cloaks, and an evil grin.
==Lemmings Paintball==
In the spin-off title of the Lemmings series, there is a game called Lemmings Paintball (known as Lemmings Play Paintball). It is quite different to most of the Lemmings games; it uses an isometric view of each level instead of a side-scrolling perspective, so is the gameplay. It focuses on splattering enemies with guns which fire out paint. This level contains various puzzles including trampolines, Lemming catapults and moving platforms.
==The Adventures of Lomax==
In the spin-off game of the Lemmings series called The Adventures Of Lomax (or simply Lomax). The player takes the role of a Lemming knight named Lomax. He was voiced by Kath Soucie, who also provided her voice in 3D Lemmings. In the plot, he has to save his animals and friends from an evil doctor named Evil Ed. His quest is to save them and defeat the Evil Ed. Another thing is that Lomax has several abilities which were found in the original Lemmings game such as builders and diggers.
==Abilities==
The Lemmings are capable of utilizing a vast number of abilities and tools, in Lemmings 2: The Tribes these include launching explosives or harmful weapons, or navigation by turning into a superhero, bashing walls with their hands, a club or fencing, dig holes with a pickaxe, a shovel, aim a laser blaster upwards, escape with a flamethrower, put explosive bombs, explode themselves, stomp or dig down a ground, fly with a balloon, Icarus wings, hang glide, a jet pack or get a magic carpet, build a new platform such as the one which can plant something to make a plant platform, each of the 12 bricks with a stairs of bricks, a tower or make a platform, the one which pours to make a new one like the paint-like liquid to fill the terrain, the glue pourer and the sand pourer.
