Umbra, the Bloodmoon
Sobriquets: The Obsidian Moon, The Leering Shadow, the Chained One, Antihelios, The Red Star, Luna Sanguine, Luna Tenebrae
The Black Moon of the Underworld was once a celestial body of Creation, but he was slain by his daughter Luna when the gods rose up against their creators.
The Chosen of Luna fashioned a powerful and fell weapon of moonsilver, and drove it into Umbra's heart. His Heart's Blood spilled out, staining his body a deep crimson, and dimming his light to purest black. Nevertheless, Umbra was so angered by his daughter's act that his heart continues to beat, even in death. In time with these slow pulses, the obsidian moon becomes a searing, angry red (strong enough to serve as a small sun for the Underworld, which otherwise lacks one), and he renews his eternal struggle to return to Creation to exact his vengeance upon Luna.
Therefore, Umbra has the distinction of being the only Primordial that had to be killed and forcibly restrained. Luna seduced Autochthon into forging chains of pure Essence, promising her not meager attentions in exchange for this gift, which she then used to bind her dead father to the body of /Leviathan. These giant chains restrain the angry moon, tethering it to the ground, preventing it from ascending clear out of the Underworld and back into Creation.
Umbra holds dominion over the shadows that play against the moonlit ground, as well as spilled blood of all sorts, and mad, dark visions. As such, he is every bit as protean as his offspring, Luna.
