Raised as an urchin in the sooty slums of the “jewel” of the Katarn Sea, Umbra’s life was preordained into one of crime, though for her she was blessed with one exceptional gift that drove her to heights far beyond her petty peers.

Thus this caught the attention of the Inquisitors, who would offer her the chance to work for them with her powers, in exchange for her life.
