Soul Reaver - Dumah (Battle) (HQ)

Dumah is an antagonist character introduced in Soul Reaver, in which he is a boss character. He also appears in Soul Reaver 2 in a similar capacity, voiced in both appearances by Simon Templeman. In the early stages of production he was code-named 'ronin boss', and at another point his name was rendered in a truncated form - 'Duma'.

Dumah first appears in the opening scene of Soul Reaver as one of Kain's vampire lieutenants. He is the leader of a vampire clan, the Dumahim, and a peer of the main character Raziel. When Kain ordered Raziel's execution, Dumah is one of the lieutenants that physically threw Raziel to his death. When Raziel finds Dumah during the game events, he has mutated into a giant with armor-like flesh and great physical strength, but has been left impaled in the ruins of his fortress by human vampire hunters. Raziel allows Dumah's wandering soul to return to his body, but in his mutated form Dumah is impervious to ordinary attacks. Only by leading Dumah into a furnace chamber does Raziel succeed in killing Dumah and devouring his soul, from which Raziel gains the Constrict ability, which allows the player to interact with certain puzzles.

The human version of Dumah makes a short appearance in Soul Reaver 2 at a much earlier point in the series timeline. A prominent member of the vampire-slaying Sarafan Order, Dumah aids in the murder of Janos Audron. The wraith Raziel encounters and kills Dumah as part of a non-optional battle, providing the corpse which Kain will reanimate as a vampire centuries later.

Unlike every other ability gained in Soul Reaver, Raziel lacks Dumah's Constrict ability in later games in the series. No explanation has been provided by the developers.

i'm not going to lie, when my brother was playing this game, i was so young, and i LOVED it and always wanted to play it but i was always too scared of it for some reason. especially this battle, because Dumah is a huge juggernaut and it was really suspenseful. god i love this game

[bezia12]

[CynderMetaKnight]

@V1KM4N that's kind dreprecing (idk how to spell).

I like both of them. I could use Kain,Rayne & Alucard (Castlevania) to kill Alucard (from Hellsing) & those Twinlight pussies.
