'''Evocate-General Umun'arath, Primus of All Legions''' | '''Evocate-General Umun'arath, Primus of All Legions''' is formerly the supreme commander of the [[Cabal|Cabal Empire]]'s combined military forces. | ||
==Biography== | ==Biography== | ||
When Emperor [[Calus]] deposed the [[Praetorate]] and declared himself Emperor, he granted the Cabal Legions the rights of citizenship and appointed Umun'arath, a combat veteran, as Evocate-General. Early on, Umun'arath did not share in Calus' vision for the Cabal, as she was constantly paranoid about the many threats on the empire's frontiers, including rumors of the [[Vex]] and [[Hive]]. The Emperor attempted to change her mind about the purpose of war and that it was only needed to protect the happiness of the Cabal people, but Umun'arath was adamant in her belief that the war against the dark forces of the galaxy was more important than everything else and that the rest of Cabal society was meant to support the Legions. She came to detest Calus' seemingly carefree attitude as a hindrance to the empire's military might.<ref name=EG>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Cabal Booklet]] - [[Cabal_Booklet#The_General:_Evocate-General_Umun.27arath.2C_Primus_of_All_Legions|The General: Evocate-General Umun'arath, Primus of All Legions]]''</ref> | |||
Umun'arath became a friend of Princess-Imperial [[Caiatl]], the young daughter of Calus and his heir, and through their friendship Caiatl grew up to enjoy fighting and learning strategy with Umun'arath as her mentor. The heir to the throne came to share Umun'arath's concerns over the dangerous species along the empire's borders and they frequently met to discuss the issue.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Cabal Booklet]] - [[Cabal_Booklet#My_Daughter:_Caiatl.2C_the_Princess-Imperial|My Daughter: Caiatl, the Princess-Imperia]]''</ref> Both Umun'arath and Caiatl became part of the conspiracy to overthrow and exile Calus, aligning with [[The Consul]] and his champion [[Dominus Ghaul|Primus Ghaul]] along with several other conspirators. The [[Ghaul's coup|coup]] succeeded, with Calus being exiled aboard ''[[The Leviathan]]'' to the edges of the galaxy, although he would go on to regard Umun'arath as "the worst mistake [he] ever made" and mark her for death alongside the rest of the conspiracy<ref name=EG/> | |||
With Ghaul now in charge of the Cabal Empire as Dominus, Umun'arath remained in command of the military and used her influence to spearhead the creation of a new Cabal Fleet. She discarded the use of independent cruisers that Calus had designed for matters of state and elegant but time-consuming maneuvers in favor using groups of frigates with fleet carriers supplying and refueling them. Umun'arath deployed these fleet against Hive [[War moon]]s that were invading the fringes of the Cabal Empire's territory, utilizing [[Psion]]s to hide the movement of the fleet and mine the invasion paths of the Hive.<ref>'''Bungie (2019/6/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Opulence]], Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Confessions#Entry_II|Confessions: Entry II]]''</ref> | |||

*Several details concerning Umun'arath seem to hint at a connection with the [[Darkness]] and the [[Hive]], at least in terms of philosophy. Her claim that "The war is all there is" echoes a nearly-identical quote attributed to the Darkness, found both in one of the "Darkness" Grimoire Cards and in dialogue with [[Lakshmi-2]]. Furthermore, Umun'arath shares part of her name with [[Xivu Arath, God of War|Xivu Arath]], the Hive God of War. | *Several details concerning Umun'arath seem to hint at a connection with the [[Darkness]] and the [[Hive]], at least in terms of philosophy.

*Umun'arath and Caiatl are the only Cabal we've seen to have tusks. Whether Cabal grow tusks or if she just has them as a trophy is unknown as her side portrait does not show enough evidence for either. | *Umun'arath and Caiatl are the only Cabal we've seen to have tusks.

**In the [[Lore:Confessions|Confessions]] [[Lore]] book, the Psion Councillor [[Match]] makes mention of young female Cabal getting 'first tusks', which implies that tusks are exclusive to female Cabal, and can be shed like the antlers on a deer. | **In the [[Lore:Confessions|Confessions]] [[Lore]] book, the Psion Councillor [[Match]] makes mention of young female Cabal getting 'first tusks', which implies that tusks are exclusive to female Cabal, and can be shed like the antlers on a deer. | ||
