Deacon Vorbis was the head of the Omnian Quisition during the early life of Brutha. He was undoubtedly the most feared man in Omnia, and pursued the Church's imperialistic goals with incredible zeal. Despite his fanatical devotion, for the greater part of his life he did not rise above the position of Deacon, a result of his position in the Quisition.

This changed following a visit to Ephebe, an aggressive diplomatic mission that ultimately ended in failure. He was carried unconscious across the desert by Brutha but, upon his recovery, he knocked the novice out and carried him into the Citadel. He took the credit for the entire journey and was made Cenobiarch, and was erroneously declared to be the Eighth Prophet. However, despite his claims, Om was not on his side...

Physically, he was tall and thin with a shaven head and an aquiline nose. His eyes were almost entirely black, thanks to his being descended from one of the deep desert tribes.
