In the PlayStation version of Rayman 2, Umber is known only as ‘a stone Colossus’; like the other Guardians, he remains unnamed in this version. He warns Rayman about the [[Ninjaws|Ninja Henchmen]], while advising him about their weaknesses. Because of this, Umber is thought to be the friendliest of the Guardians of the [[Four Masks of Polokus|Four Masks]], unlike [[Axel]] and [[Foutch]]. He even admits that it's an honor helping such a hero such as Rayman, probably referring to the events of [[Rayman 1|the original game]], in which [[Rayman]] saved the world from the evil [[Mr Dark]]. His benevolence is thanks to [[Ly the Fairy|Ly]], who ‘contacted his spirit’, according to the [[Grand Minimus]], and explained [[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|the situation]] involving [[Polokus]] and the [[Robo-Pirate army|Robo-Pirate]] invasion to him, thus convincing him to help Rayman. Unfortunately, Ly's tactic did not work on [[Foutch]], as he had already gone mad from the destruction of [[the Heart of the World]], forcing Rayman to battle him for the [[Four Masks of Polokus|Third Mask]].

It is worth noting that Ly's intervention with the gaurdians is mentioned only in the Playstation Version of Rayman 2, and may not be cannon in other versions. Therefore, Umber may not be as benvolent in these versions as it seems. As he can clearly suvive submerging himself in lava, this in fact could be his method of attack, leading the potential mask-taker into a false sense of security, and then killing them in the lava when they least suspect it. It is notable that no explanation to his sinking is ever given, as well as the fact that he does not sink in the Playstation Version, the only version that specifically states that he is helping Rayman.
