Umbris Morosir

"White wings, black soul. His mark is left on all he surveys." -Author regarding Umbris Morosir.
Umbris Morosir was a Heskra Witchlord and the Harbinger-General of the 10th Order in the Dark Star Empire during the Great War. Placed as the head of the Winter Collective in addition to his duties as a general, Umbris was in command of the Empire's intelligence efforts during the course of the war. He answered directly to Witch-King Harkan Felreave and coordinated with his colleagues to bring about victory for the empire. Unbeknownst to most, Umbris served as Pride of the Cardinals during this time, leading the group in secret to further the ends of the Dark Court in Aeos. Under his masters' instruction, he steered the course of the war toward a stalemate. When his betrayal of the Empire's interests was discovered, his co-conspirators were systematically executed. Umbris, himself, died at the hands of Alliance operatives during the Assault on Chrosis. His efforts, however, lead to the creation of Matriarch Ozia'la'Voria - his successor as Pride, the securing of three of the IlvÍr for the Daemonas, and the weakened state of the Reach powers allowing the Cardinals to take effective hold over much of the Reach.
== Appearance ==
Little is known of Umbris’ appearance beneath his traditional garb. He had cyan-colored eyes that were often concealed behind the dark holes of his white Mourning Owl mask, with snowy white hair that fell down to his upper back. He wore white, scale armor beneath a cape of white Mourning Owl feathers that formed a crest around his upper chest and neck. His hands were covered by matching white gloves tipped with curved, metal claws. He wore knee-high matching white boots with eye-shaped symbols on the knees.
Those who remember Umbris recall that he had a calm, chilling voice and a haunting demeanor about him. He stood at a tall 6’4” which made him tower over most of his subordinates. With his facial features concealed behind his mask at all times and his mind guarded from even the most subtle of probes, it was difficult to tell the thoughts and moods of Umbris aside from his tone. The aura when around Umbris was said to be cold and disarming.
== Personality ==
“The Fel have already blessed you. With our cannons and missiles we anoint you. With our collars and lashes, we educate you in the glory of the Old Powers.”‘’
”That might be the most insane thing I have ever heard.”
”Of course it is. It is not in the nature of a base creature like yourself to understand the privilege of the pain we bring. But you will learn.” -Umbris and Corporal Sutherland.
Umbris has been described by his colleagues as a master Witchlord and an influential voice in the upper echelons of the Empire. To his enemies, Umbris was a wraith orchestrating many atrocities and pulling the strings of various Imperial spies and agents throughout the Core and the Reach. His tireless devotion to his spy network, the Winter Collective, lead him to have several agents planted in the Core Alliance. This helped him early on in the war by weakening several Core powers as the Coalition’s war machine progressed. 
Umbris was a cold, callous, and methodical man with a zealous devotion to the Fel. While publicly loyal to the Witch-King, Umbris felt that the Empire was merely a platform to help further his aims and to weaken the Alliance for the eventual invasion from Hell. All of his servants and agents were disposable to Umbris, including his Cardinals, though the Directive was his highest priority. He worked hard to keep his true goals a secret and let none of his closest confidantes know the complete scope of his plans.
Umbris treated the war as a religious calling and expressed that the Alliance should feel grateful for the oppression the Heskra wreaked upon them. However, he acknowledged that the Empire was flawed and that Harkan was delusional. As the war was a smokescreen for his true movements, Umbris has no qualms about betraying Coalition secrets to the Alliance if it helped to prolong the war.
