I always thought a potential Umojan character would be Colin Phash, who's introduced in the comics. He's only a boy when we meet him, but nothing a time jump can't solve, and since he's training to become an Umojan Shadowguard, this is a chance to see more of the Umojans. Phash himself, a Terran with psionic abilities no other Terran has. He has Quiet Voice, which allows him slightyl remove his presence from the material plane to hide from Psionic detection, he can also "hear sounds that no one else can"(Little was mentioned of that ability. So the games can expand that). And best of all, Astral Projection. He can separate his mind from his body, and exist in a different color, transparent, and non corporal entity, making him an almost literal Ghost.

All these abilities have gameplay and story written all over them, especially with the Voice in the Darkness being set up. What if Phash began hearing the Voice in his head, or start hearing or seeing deceased characters?(Bonus points if a gag quote is a reference to "The Sixth Sense".) Or what if the Astral form went haywire and he found himself in the Void, or somewhere else separated from the material galaxy? His story would be very phsyoclogical, and his power would have to be a bit unstable as presented in the comics.

In terms of gameplay, we'd have a new Ghost/Stealth character, and Astral Form and Quiet Voice could be very helpful in avoiding detection. THough for gameplay purposes, but can only be active for a limited time, again showing that his power is not fully stable.

So we have a Terran, training to be an Umojan Shadowguard, with unstable powers that no other Terran has, who's suffered nightmarish trauma since he was a boy. It's the perfect starting blueprint to expand into a fully fledged SC3 character.
