The creature known as Umbra is the manisfestation of a Demon from Arcona's Shadow Plane. In 30 ABY, Shadowlord Mejas Doto summoned forth the demonic entity and provided it a vessel in the form of Shadesworn agent Talos Vyranius d'Tana, who had willingly agreed to the process. The identity of Talos was obliterated and replaced with the memories, powers, and needs of the Demon, transforming not only his mental outlook but also his physical appearance. Umbra is now the silent hand of Vorion, the Proconsul Emeritus, and stalks the Galaxy.

The Ritual
The Ritual of Transference was performed on board the INT Creeping Darkness by the Shadowlord, Mejas Doto. The Ritual took just under five hours and an immense amount of power, but did not drain Mejas in the slightest. In the course of the Transference, all of Umbra's powers, memories, abilities, traits, and even physical appearance was pushed into Talos' body, eradicating the once human.
When the Ritual was done, the young, handsome, Talos d'Tana was no more, instead laying in his place was a tall, pale, bald, and crimson-eyed monstrosity.
Manifestation
- "If you do not accept that transmission, the Proconsul promised me a tasty morsel...such as a little baby girl"
- ―Umbra to Xathia
Umbra's first mission, and his revelation to the rest of Arcona, was to mend the the rift caused by the Shadesworn agents, and he was put aboard the ISDII Eye of the Abyss II and made his way to the Bridge, where he confronted the entire True-Arconan Summit;Taigikori Aybara, Legorii Kryotek Entar, Rho Ozrei d'Tana, Tirna Quirja, and Xathia. Also present were Aiorius Van Trayus, Zakath, and Etah d'Tana.
Within moments of his arrival, the klaxon for signal-arrival beeped, alerting the True-Arconans that a transmission was waiting. The Summit accepted and the cowled faces of Sashar Arconae and Vorion, the co-leaders of the Shadesworn. Before Vorion could speak, Xathia and Rho swarmed the console; demanding to know what he had done with Alyssa and what Talos had become, respectively.
Vorion took the verbal onslaught and eventually quelled the ranting by raising a hand and a immediate silence fell over the True-Arconans. He explained the entire situation; including the purpose of the Shadesworn, the kidnapping of Alyssa to use as bait and the transformation of Talos into the Entity of Umbra. He then explained the reason that Umbra was onboard the ship and the Stair of Doto, the ritual that would pioneer Clan Arcona's reclamation of the Dajorra System. The climbing of the Stair had begun.
