Umbra

The artifact Umbra is an enchanted sword obtained by slaying its wielder, as in Morrowind. This time, however, it is a one-handed weapon carried by Umbra, a female Wood Elf located in Vindasel. She and the sword are encountered during Clavicus Vile's Daedric Quest. Although this sword is associated with a Daedric quest, it is not considered a Daedric Artifact for the quest Blood of the Daedra or for your character's statistics page. See the book Tamrielic Lore for background on this item.

Notes[edit]

  • In Morrowind, Umbra was a two-handed claymore, but in Oblivion, it is a one-handed longsword.
  • Umbra is Latin for "shadow" or "ghost".
  • Umbra closely resembles an Ebony Longsword from Morrowind.
  • Umbra has the highest base damage of any one-handed weapon in the game.
  • Umbra is a zero-weight quest item before finishing the related quest.
  • Unlike most other swords, Umbra does not have a sheath.
  • The sword's model is named "FGD05_UmbraSword", implying that at some point in the development it might have been intended to be used during the quest Azani Blackheart.
