UMBRAL GUARD

One of many Skrall splinter factions that formed after Tuma's defeat, the Umbral Guard is led by Brutuk, who once had ambitions to rebuild the Skrall empire under his own command. These plans were dashed when a violent encounter with the Mekrona left the Umbral Guard's forces decimated and Brutuk near-fatally injured. Ever the schemer, he managed to talk himself and his comrades out of certain death by entering an alliance with the Mekrona; agreeing to assist their assault on Volkerra in return for their lives.
