Following their defeat, the Umbrum sought to find a way to invade [[Equestria]] once again. They devised a wicked plan, to create an Umbrum who appeared to be a pony in order to infiltrate Equestria. This pony, was Sombra.{{confirm}}
 
Sombra was quickly abandoned by his creators as they cared not for him, only what he could do for them. Regardless, Sombra didn't know of his creation, his parents, or even how to speak the [[Common language]]. All alone, Sombra was eventually discovered by a group of [[Royal Guards of Equestria|Crystal guards]]. The guards questioned the young foal about the whereabouts of his family, but he couldn't answer them.<ref group = excerpt>''The Crystal Guard said I was alone out in the wastes just north of the empire. They asked where my family was, but I couldn't tell them.''</ref> All he could say was "Sombra", which the guard decided to name him.<ref name = FIE1/>{{C|FIE|1}}</ref name>
 
Being a "lost colt", Sombra had no family to return to and was sent to stay at [[Chestnut Falls' Orphanage]] to be raised. Sombra was warmly greeted by [[Chestnut Falls]] herself, but Sombra himself could not say anything but Sombra. Sombra was rather melancholy in the earliest days of his creation, he found it strangely difficult to speak in the pony tongue, writing as if it was like he wasn't supposed to say them. Because of this, Sombra found it increasingly hard to communicate with his peers, which caused him to fall behind in class. However, Sombra was a quick learner and hard worker, and the kind and understanding caretaker Ms Chestnut always helped Sombra when he couldn't understand his homework.<ref name = FIE1/>

===Sexuality===
[[Mike Vogel]], a show writer and former VP of [[Hasbro]]'s development, joked that Sombra was gay (unfortunately using stereotypes rather then anything meaningful) on Twitter.<ref>[https://derpicdn.net/img/2019/4/6/2004755/medium.png Tweet screenshot]</ref> This is contradicted by Sombra having a romantic partner in the form of Radiant Hope, a mare. While it ''is'' possible for Sombra to be bisexual or pansexual, the fact that the comment was made based off stereotypes rather then anything meaningful, this is unlikely. Insider rated Sombra in a list of LGBTQA+ cartoon characters.<ref>[https://www.equestriadaily.com/2021/06/insiders-259-lgbtq-characters-in.html Insider's "259 LGBTQ Characters in Cartoons" List Includes Some Pony]</ref>
