He was a descendant of Salazar Slytherin, born into the pure-blood House of Gaunt to a Mr and Mrs Gaunt, two Dark wizards. He was born blind, and no spell was able to reverse it. After this, he took to using his wand, which was "almost sentient", to navigate his way around.

Magical abilities and skills

Dark Arts: Ominis was once forced into casting the Cruciatus Curse by his family. However unlike his family, he grew to detest the Dark Arts and opposed their practice. Parseltongue: Ominis was a Parselmouth, meaning he could magically talk to snakes, an ability which resided in his family tree. Defence Against the Dark Arts: Despite being blind, Ominis was still capable of defending himself against the Dark Arts, managing to beat off waves of Inferi in the catacombs of Feldcroft. It is unknown exactly how he managed this, but as his wand was described to be "sentient", his skill may have been linked to that. Love: Though certainly not one of Ominis's most obvious qualities, he held a great amount of deep, brotherly care for his close friend, Sebastian Sallow, as well as fear for the dark path that he was going down. Even though he understood Sebastian to be manipulating him, he still felt a duty to try to stop his descent into darkness as the only person that he trusted.Furthermore, after the traumatic experiences of his childhood, he made a genuine and radical attempt to distance himself from his family and their culture of the Dark Arts.
