That seems a bit... overpowered...
It might be interesting, down the line after the origin power pools, but at the same time isn't that what the Kheldian ATs are supposed to be for?

The Kheldian ATs are great for people who are primarily Kheldians and develop as kheldians. |

That's not necessarily the case for all people who join with a Kheldian.
If someone was a hero before joining with a Kheldian, does that person forget how to use all of his/her existing powers?

I've long suggested that Kheldians to get APPs along the same grounds.|

My Peacebringer was supposed to be a later version of my FF/Psi defender (my first lvl 50) but it never made sense to me that he'd just flat out stop using all the powers he had before.
A Psi based APP would let me bridge his current and previous incarnations.
Likewise with anyone who had a kheldian character who was a metahuman in their own right before joining.
I do have a Dark/Shield scrapper who would like an Umbral power pool. He draws his power from his shield, which was carved from a damaged Shadow Crystal that contains an ailing nictus.
That said, Stygian Circle is a bit too much for any power pool, even if they doubled the recharge like they do with APPs.
@Oathbound & @Oathbound Too
Yeah, I wasn't really sure about what to do for the level 20 stuff.
They could decrease the per body bonus as well as doubling the recharge.
It wouldn't make a good Power Pool- perhaps an EPP would be nice, with different powers depending on the AT.

It'd be OK as an APP, but I'd rather see it as a regular pool. The OP has a point in that some supers partially merge with a Kheld after they've become super. There should be a way to reflect this in game early on in the character's career.

Check out the Repeat Offenders network of SGs! You'll be glad you did.
Perhaps you remember Dr. Shelly Percey's "Steal a Nictus" mission, wherein you steal a Nictus and gain three Nictus powers: Nictus Gravitic Emanation, Nictus Shadow Step, and Nictus Absorption.
With the upcoming "Sorcery Power Pool" opening the way for themed Power Pools, I'd like to see a "Warshade Power Pool" and a "Peacebringer Power Pool" for characters who might be Nictus, Warshades, or Peacebringers, but not lose development of their other powers.
For Peacebringers:
Level 4: Gleaming Bolt
Level 4: Incandescence
Level 4: Energy Flight
Level 20: Reform Essence
Level 20: Pulsar
For Warshades:
Level 4: Absorption
Level 4: Shadow Bolt
Level 4: Shadow Step
Level 20: Stygian Circle
Level 20: Orbiting Death
Or something to that effect.
