[[Image:Torajan_Jungles_map.jpg|thumb|right|The umbaru race lives in the [[Teganze]] region of the [[Torajan Jungles]], centrally on [[Sanctuary]]'s [[world map]].]]
The '''umbaru''' race is a jungle-living people, made up by many different clans in the [[Teganze]] region of the huge [[Torajan Jungles]], south west of [[Kurast]].

==Known Tribes==
Three clans are known from [[Abd al-Hazir]]'s [[Writings of Abd al-Hazir: Entry no. 0013|thirteenth entry]] of his [[Writings of Abd al-Hazir|Writings]]:
* [[Tribe of the Five Hills]]
* [[Clan of the Seven Stones]]
* [[Tribe of the Clouded Valley]]
In the Tribe of the Five Hills, which he visited, fearsome [[Witch Doctor]]s lead and fought for the tribe. They conduct ritual warfare against their two neighbours, but it's not known if the Witch Doctors are unique to the Tribe of the Five Hills, or if they are common among the umbaru.

Five additional tribes were used by the [[mage clan]] known as [[Vizjerei]], and transformed as beasts of war for the [[Mage Clan War]]. They sold their souls to the demon [[Zagraal]] to get feral power and to defeat their Vizjerei oppressors, but in the end they lost the last of their humanity, now called "[[Khazra]]", roughly translating to "demon". The new names of the tribes are believed to be:
* Moon Clan
* Night Clan
* Blood Clan
* Death Clan
* Hell Clan

The umbaru [[Witch Doctor]]s have spent much energy to more or less eradicate the "goatmen".

==Trivia==
The [[D3 Team]] might have taken inspiration from the Indian town [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umbar_Pada_Nandade Umbar Pada Nandade], the Star Wars race [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Star_Wars_races_(U–Z)#Umbaran Umbaran] or the aboriginal elder [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umbarra Umbarra] of the Djirringanj/Yuin people of the Bermagui area on the South Coast of New South Wales.
