Noctumbra
A wolf-like Dark Anima marked by the flames on its tail. Despite a menacing on-screen reputation (it headlines HoYoverse's mock thriller "FORBIDDEN! An Arcane Rite, A Legendary Anima"), Noctumbra is teased as a gentle creature at heart.

Explorer role: The deepest role on the roster. Aspect bonuses treat it as offensive in some cases (Attack SPD under Strength) and durable in others (Max Health under Insatiability), so its scaling depends on the Aspect you build around.
Energy: Has Omnileech, which is what lets it trade damage and survivability instead of choosing one.
Where to find Noctumbra

Noctumbra Anidex entry
Noctumbra prefers quiet and solitude. Noisy environments simply leave it flustered. That said, it doesn't actually mind human company. To the local lads, a Noctumbra lurking in the shadows is the epitome of cool. They spin tales about their encounters to bolster their own reputations, all while maintaining an unspoken agreement never to call each other out. "I once spent a whole night in the forest with Noctumbra!" "Noctumbra took me riding through the darkness!" "Noctumbra told me it's allergic to sunlight!" And so, Noctumbra became something of a cultural icon.
Dispositions
Noctumbra carries these four. Exactly one runs at a time, so this is the one thing about it you choose rather than roll for. What the rest of the roster carries is on the Dispositions reference.
For each hex traveled through movement or displacement, gain a 4% DMG Bonus, up to 24%.
Gain 10% Omnileech. The effect doubles the first time Health drops below 50%.

Rapport ranks
Duplicate copies of Noctumbra raise its Rapport rank, and each rank changes its signature skill. The ladder is not evenly weighted: ranks 1 and 4 scale numbers that are already there, ranks 3 and 5 are a flat stat bump and nothing else, and ranks 2 and 6 are where the skill actually gains something new. Those two are the ones worth pulling for.
Active: Charge to the opponent farthest away, dealing 200% (ATK) Physical DMG to opponents along the path, and applying or removing Lingering Shade. Keyword: Lingering Shade: When the Active Skill hits opponents without Lingering Shade, mark them with Lingering Shade for 6s. When hits opponents with Lingering Shade, deals 310% (ATK) Physical DMG and removes it.
