[edit] Appearance
Umaro is a giant Yeti. He is the largest of the party, and has frightening features. Despite this, Mog seems to know how to control him, as Umaro will listen to him.
[edit] Story
The player first encounters Umaro in the World of Balance, when he pokes his head out of his mine, which is unreachable at this point (a resident of Narshe even says that he "saw some Moogles playing with a Sasquatch!"). However, after acquiring Valigarmanda in the World of Ruin, the party can enter his cave. When they take his precious stone (the Magicite Midgardsormr), he gets angry and challenges the party to a fight. If the player wins, he lets the party pass. If Mog is in the party, he will order Umaro to join the party.
In the ending, Umaro crushes some rocks to open up a passage.
[edit] Equipment and Stats
Umaro has the highest HP, vigor, and defense in the game. However, his magic stats are sub-par. In addition, he cannot use any equipment other than the Bone Club and Snow Muffler, both of which he comes with (aside from the Bone Wrist in the GBA version). He can equip Relics, although he cannot equip the Merit Award.
[edit] Abilities
Umaro is a Berserker, and thus has no command window, and is completely uncontrollable. The abilities he can use depend on what Relics he has equipped. If he is equipped with no Relics or some generic ones, he only uses either his physical attack, or charges into his opponent. If he is equipped with the Rage Ring, he can toss a random party member at the opposition. Precedence goes to characters who are Asleep or Muddled, as throwing them will remove those status ailments. If he is equipped with the Blizzard Orb, he can also use an attack called Storm, an Ice-elemental attack.
Umaro has no Desperation Attack, as he does not have a Fight command.

Umaro's theme is named after him, and is the theme played in his mine. It is mixed into the ending.
