Characteristics
Umbras are the strongest versions of the shadow monsters, appearing only in places filled with darkness. As its Japanese name states, they are shadows of deceased Demon Lord themselves given physical form. The official guide book for the Super Famicom version of Dragon Quest III states that they are the malicious intent of Baramos given semi-physical form. With its high agility, it can become a nuisance to adventurers with its instant death spells and sickly sweet breath. Thankfully, they are vulnerable to having their magic sealed away with Fizzle. Although its shadowy ilk appeared in VI and VIII, umbras themselves did not make a reappearance in the series until X and XI, as well as various spinoff games.
