Orvex Ocrammas

Orvex Ocrammas was a professor at the Univeristy of Cimmer, specializing in the history of Omu. He taught Wyncit Sutler, finding the youth to be a disappointing student without the drive to properly apply himself to the work. Wyncit found Orvex aggravating enough to avoid learning the Ancient Omuan language later in his studies.

In 2970 a group of wizards told Orvex that they had located the lost city of Omu within the jungles of Palmheart and wanted to hire him as their guide. Orvex was thrilled at both the opportunity and the offered payment, and immediately traveled to Rathna to begin the expedition. One night, their camp was attacked by yuan-ti; many of his companions were killed, while Orvex himself was trapped under the rubble of a collapsed building. Brecca Greenstone of the Sutler Expedition happened to pass by the next morning, and she and Wyncit dug him out. Not knowing what had become of his surviving companions who were not present for the yuan-ti attack, Orvex decided to join them.

His time with the Sutler Expedition proved short-lived, however. The next day, as they attempted to ford the river coursing through the city, he was shot in the heart by a tabaxi hunter and killed instantly. Wyncit wrapped the professor's body in a tattered canvas and set it adrift in the river, where it plunged over a waterfall into a lake of bubbling lava.
