When Umah is outnumbered in the Industrial Quarter, she knew that she could not defeat the Sarafan, who easily brought down two vampires (Umah and the weakened vampire who reported her capture).

The court uniforms combined the traditional medieval Russian sarafan, a type of jumper with exceptionally long sleeves, with the high style of Western European court fashion.
Women were required to wear the kokoshnik –the Russian headdress whose traditional ogee or rounded shapes are echoed in Russian architecture and remain one of the defining characteristics of Russian folk style costumes.
The traditional sarafan, like the one I have designed and built, was able to combine Russian and Western design elements into one harmonious whole.

 Gamer's Logik 4.0 - Blood Omen 2 Review
Apparently, they feel that the Sarafan believing Kain to be dead makes him the key in their continuing struggle for Nosgoth.
While it may not be the best looking graphics we've seen to date on the system, the towns, slums, underground passages, etc. in Blood Omen 2 are quite the impressive lot and the drab colors used throughout the Gothic-esque scenery provide a complementary tone to the overall presentation of the game.
The main characters such as Kain, the Sarafan army, and his once "allies turned foe" are rendered quite well and move at a nice, consistent pace.

Raziel, unfortunately, evolved before his master Kain did (Raziel grew wings at the beginning of the first game), and was thrown into the Lake of the Dead, destined to burn in the lake for all eternity.
