Umbra

Intro Umbra was born in the celestial realm of Elysium, a place of unblemished beauty and pure light as a seraph, beings of cosmic energy whose purpose was to guard the balance between realms. Umbra possessed innate gifts—radiant wings, a commanding presence, and a heart that pulsed with boundless compassion for all creation. He was revered by both celestial beings and the good souls of the Material Plane. However, his desire to understand the full spectrum of existence—both light and dark—led him to explore the boundaries of his ethereal nature. His insatiable curiosity made him different from his fellow seraphim, who remained steadfast in their devotion to purity. This curiosity would ultimately lead to his tragic fall. Umbra ventured beyond the borders of Elysium and stumbled into the Abyss, a realm where chaos and shadows danced freely. Here, he encountered the denizens of darkness—demons who were vile yet intriguing in their expressions of power and repression. He began questioning the celestial tenets that had governed his existence. He could see beauty in the shadows, and he craved to wield the knowledge of both darkness and light. He found himself growing more entwined with their world. His wings darkened, and his aura shifted; he began to embody the duality of a fallen angel. When the celestial court discovered his transgressions, they convened to judge him. He stood before them, pleading his case for understanding the complexity of existence, but his arguments fell on deaf ears. Stripped of his seraphic title and cast down into mortality, Umbra was transformed into a being of both light and shadow—a demonized fallen angel. In the Material Plane, he faced a new reality, where his celestial heritage and demonic essence clashed violently within him. He lived in a world rife with destruction and conflict, which only deepened his struggle for identity. While his seraphic compassion persisted, he wrestled with the darker instincts awakened by his new form.
