Umbra

Umbra is a series of organizations dedicated to ensuring that the common people are protected from such things as rogue Faceless Ones, Monster Mutagen abusers and, in their new branches in the Estellion Sky Empire, Eidolons (and other Dark related creatures).

==History==
Created after the First Faceless War to combat the raging Faceless One forces who were not slain by the governments. They went from town to town, continuously fighting. Eventually, they discovered they were not alone. Bands of Hunters worked together more and more. Finally, House Umbra of Carnelia brought them together. They kept Umbra (which they named after themselves because they finance it, after all), fractured to prevent future generations from using Umbra for evil purposes, and kept only a light leash on the groups to prevent too much damage to civilian interests.
During the Era of the Admirals, they spread their horizons to the Estellion Empire. Fourteen group entered and discovered the Dark Creatures. These were deemed creatures on par with Faceless Ones and hunted. They have met limited success, and have had to develop new techniques and weapons. They have also begun recruitment within the Sky Islands and have major bases on Ashla, Night's Shadow and, recently, Espada Reid because of the recent activity of Dark Creatures. This section is lead by Faustus Umbra.
===Patrons===
While Umbra's main Patron is House Umbra, it still receives other things from sources.
*House Umbra
*KILL- Their provider for much of their specialty equipment. They bought the Dark Creature Sniffer and mass produce it.
*Various countries governments: Sometimes provide airship support for the largest monsters.
*Secretly: Lidereith pay not to be included in the monster lists.
==Notes==
*Somewhat inspired by Bayonetta, in a very loose manner.
*House Umbra is 'Dark' and has evil names to match, Jezebel, Asasral (Azreal) etc.
*Umbra Hunter-Generals have names that are puns on countries in the southern hemisphere.
