Father '''Omin''' is a [[Shu-Korath|Korathi]] priest who lives in [[Kae]]. He was known by the name '''Elenan''' in his youth.{{wob ref|7591}} Omin is bald, and has 'strikingly blue eyes'. He is short, even for an [[Arelene]]; short enough to have constructed a special podium to preach from that minimizes his lack of height.{{book ref|Elantris|17}}

He is a kind, fatherly figure, one of the better priests [[Sarene]] has ever known. When he became a Korathi priest, he took the name Omin to represent his new path in life.{{wob ref|7591}} He is extremely absent-minded, often disappearing into his own mind in the middle of conversations. He explains the [[Widow's Trial]] to Sarene, and she asks him to perform her weddings to both [[Roial]]{{book ref|Elantris|38}} and [[Raoden]]{{book ref|Elantris|63}} He meets with [[Hrathen]] on the wall of Elantris and discusses with him the fact that he preaches hatred towards the Elantrians, but does nothing other than talk. {{book ref|Elantris|17}}. However, he praises Hrathen's logic. He says that logic is not necessarily faith though, and questions Hrathen's faith.
