Description This is the most recent updated edited version of Umbelozar's very first image. You'll notice I added the dark blue hue of his scales to most of his body, except his legs. In addition, I added a spiked ball on the tip of his tail that I took from one of the artist's other Zelda Boss.
The original image had color: www.deviantart.com/jnredmon/ar…

Backstory:

Umbelozar is a dark blue Ocarina of Time Lizalfos who, while a lone wanderer, has no problem socializing with others. Though he is of one specific tribe, he is very curious and eager to learn about each tribe there is, despite the fact that the others may be of rival tribes. He may not quite be an expert at sword fighting, but for a mostly self-taught swordsman, he's well above average. He is naturally fast and nimble in his body's reflexes. 


Umbelozar grew up with a traveling Lizalfos family. Unlike most Lizalfos that remain together in close proximities, his father and mother were always moving around from place to place. Half of the time, it seemed to happen out of the blue, almost as if someone was after them. But Umbra and his slightly older sister Byylah went along with whatever they were told. During their youth, their parents befriended a troupe of Flare Dancers who offered them hospitality when they ventured to volcanic lands. However, during that stay, their parents went out one night and never returned. It turned out that their parents had stolen secrets from Hyrule's Royal Family Tomb that disclosed how communication could be achieved from anywhere in the world through the incantation of mysterious melodies. After years on the run with their children, the Lizalfos parents had ultimately given up their game of cat and mouse, leaving them under the care of the Flare Dancers but not without sharing the secrets with their young ones. 
The bond that Umbelozar shares with his sister is a powerful sibling love relationship. Rarely did they ever bicker or fight with one another, and when they did, it was usually playful. In fact, during one of their wrestling sessions, they discovered they were both rather flexible. Not only that, but they were also natural born belly dancers! However, Byylah, being a female, was naturally more flexible than him. Every time they challenged each other to a belly dance off, she always won (though for a guy, he did a remarkably good job.) Their parents left them with heirlooms shortly before their disappearance. Umbelozar inherited a shiny set of golden armor that was just like the greenish tribal armor that his own tribe of Lizalfos traditionally wear, including the sword and the sheath. He tried to play with the sword every chance he got, but when he cut his leg, his guardians insisted on watching him whenever he would use it. The Flare Dancers trained the Lizalfos siblings in the art of dancing. Additionally, he was also given a shield of bronze to wear over his wrist; a shield which normally came from the Twilight tribe of Lizalfos. Perhaps there's something about Umbra's ancestors that he and his sister are kept in the dark on… 
Naturally, since his sister was older, she was the first one to leave the home. Once he was old enough, too (which was not very long since he's just a mere eleven months younger), he took his inheritance with him for protection. During this period of time, he decided it would be smart to brush up on his sword fighting skills. He was certainly no expert and since he had no instructor, he was forced to be his own teacher. He remembered hearing about various fighting styles that different people fought with and he did his best to imitate them in his own mind. Despite his skill being at a novice level, he was certainly a step above the usual Lizalfos when it came to fencing. Having lived with the Flare Dancers for several years, he often incorporated a bit of dance into his fencing. Though now living apart, the siblings and the dancers kept in communication with their own personal melody. 
One day, he met a female Lizalfos who was of the Skyward Lizalfos tribe named Skylark. She was accompanied by her love interest, a Dinolfos named Night Fang. Unlike Umbra, Skylark was an orphan who had been raised by a Hylean knight and his mother since before she could speak, so unfortunately, she had no knowledge of Lizalfos dialect and only spoke Hylean. Night Fang knew some Hylean too and could speak in some reptilian dialect. During his meeting with them, a hostal tribe of rival Lizalfos had taken Umbra's sister captive. Luckily, she knew how to keep them all entertained to keep them from harming. During her rescue, Umbra sustained a knife stab into the back of his right hip and a near fatal slash to his left ribs that nearly ruptured part of his spleen. It was a miracle that they were able to find a fairy fountain while he was unconscious. Who knew how much longer he would've been alive for if they hadn't. It was equally fortunate that he didn't lose his spleen either, since they normally can't be repaired if they're ruptured. While he recovered, Skylark taught him several fighting techniques that she had learned from her adoptive father. It was clear that she had learned from a genuine pro as she was an amazing sword fighter for a Lizalfos. Umbelozar got a spiked ball from the battle from a slain enemy Lizalfos as a memento to wear as a weapon on the end of his tail. 
After departing from his newfound friends with a much more improved set of fighting skills, he was caught grave robbing and was subjected to an unpleasant interrogation about a recent series of grave robbing that had occurred before the Lizalfos had appeared. Luckily, a Poe was able to clear Umbra from the major grave robbings that had happened prior to his arrival and he was able to make off with a Red Candle that carried an infinite flame. 

One of his most unusual traits is that he has a fetish with abs. One of the biggest similarities that he has constantly noted about the casual wear of almost every tribe of Lizalfos is that they leave their mid-section unguarded. It also doesn't help the fact that he, despite how well toned his stomach is, he can create rather smooth belly waves. He is also fond of his bellybutton and views each and every one as a core, the center of every living thing and thinks that if no two snowflakes look alike or if everyone has a unique fingerprint, then the same can be said for any navel. He sometimes asks himself, "Is there a navel of the universe...? The center of gravity... The core of the planet..."
