Description
They say courage makes person's eyes shine. Fear makes this entity's eyes glow.

Darkness is the home to many unique and yet-to-be-seen creatures. Most of them aren't dangerous, in fact they are more scared of the light itself than of you. They dwell in the dark because it protects them from harm, they think what they can't see can't scare them. So it would had been, if darkness didn't house this Overseer as well. Umbriel, Overseer of Great Sight, the one whom many believed to be capable of seeing everything, everywhere, in any time. His prophecies were never wrong, there was nothing he couldn't anticipate or predict. Eye of Truth itself.

One day he was asked to look into the future the Vein of Life. What he saw changed him into this. Without telling what was revealed to his gaze, he emerged himself into complete darkness, leaving only small strings of himself attached to Arks of Reality, so one day he could return into the world where the only living being would be him.

Eons, spent in Darkness allowed Umbriel learn more of the life that existed there. Creatures of different size and type fascinated him - how could Overseer who spent his entire life in Light ever think of something that existed in darkenss like this, void, considered by many to be either empty or prison to creatures who did not deserve to exist in any reality. With no light source, all Umbriel could do was to listen to his surroundings. So he was until one day the hunger for life didn't make it's call. No creature can exist without consuming any form of energy, as it's own life has to be sustained, or else it simply dies. There was no way Umbriel could resist the call - his life force was slowly fading away. With no options left, Umbriel attracted the nearest creature he could sense and consumed it. Sensation of new energy flowing through himself was indescribable - feeling of satiation did calm the call. From that day, every time Umbriel heard the call, he consumed everything he could reach.

Eventually, Overseer of Great Sight turned into Overseer of Shadows - the only being who could see others in the world of absolute black. Those who somehow end in his world won't see him comming. They won't feel anything, not until they become one with him once and for all. Underlord, I believe Fate like this does not suit our purpose - we need to get out, this is not the kind of darkenss we can enjoy staying in, at least not in such company.

Featuring powerful Overseer, who can be reaches only through two collumns of Ice - Arks of Reality. Having 4 Titans at his command, This Overseer thrives in Darkenss, having his body protected while his eyes gaze around, seeking any kind of motion, any sign of new life around himself. Beware, this one is very dangerous. Don't look into his eyes.

Playable in Skirmish and MP.
