Umah

"I thank you, Kain, for giving us this chance to defeat the Hylden for all time. But you have done enough. I shall be the one to find and kill the Sarafan Lord, and Nosgoth shall belong to the vampires once again."

- Umah

Umah was a supporting character in Legacy of Kain: Blood Omen 2. She was a member of the The Cabal, acting as both a guide and a friend to Kain. She narrated a tutorial for Kain (and thereby the player) at the beginning of the game in the context of reminding him of his vampiric abilities, and introducing him to Meridian. Umah was voiced by Liz Ward-Land.

Biography
In Blood Omen 2, Kain woke from a 200-year coma, and was greeted by Umah, a vampire. She informed him of developments in Nosgoth since his defeat by the Sarafan Lord, and requested his help against the Lord on behalf of the Cabal. In Chapter 1: The Slums - as Kain's memory had been affected by his long slumber - she reminded him of his vampiric abilities, and introduced him to Meridian's dangers.

Umah was given orders to investigate the Industrial Quarter, so Kain made his way to Sanctuary alone. Upon his arrival, he learned that Umah had been captured by the Sarafan. They were going to execute her. Kain rescued Umah from the Sarafan Keep, having infiltrated the fortress with the aid of the Bishop of Meridian. The pair met the Sarafan Lord and narrowly avoided death thanks to a spell Umah used to bring them back to Sanctuary. In Sanctuary, Umah described the Nexus Stone artifact she had discovered during her reconnaissance mission. Kain went to the Industrial Quarter to get it.

Later, Umah travelled with Kain to the Wharves. There, fearing his ambition, she stole the Nexus Stone from him. She was worried that Kain would turn on the Cabal once the Sarafan Lord had been destroyed. She intended to destroy the Sarafan Lord herself, but soon after, Kain found her badly wounded from her encounters with Sarafan Knights. She was dying, and asked Kain to save her. He refused. He reclaimed the Nexus Stone and killed her for betraying him. He remarked that she "could have been his queen", hinting at an attraction.

In the game's closing scene Kain reflected on Umah's claims that his rule would not differ from that of the Sarafan Lord.
