The Omega loved his sister and was eaten alive with jealousy over how the vampires occupied her time. The Omega ordered a new Forelesser, 'the Little Shit,' to kill Lash for asking to turn a female vampire so he could feed since regular lesser blood wasn't working. After Lash became part Lesser, the Omega often sought emotional validation and admiration from his son. While preparing to bring Lash back from the dead, he crooned a lullaby and comments on his son's appearance like a proud new parent. He changes them on a whim.Īlthough he has no regard for any life whatsoever, including his own Lessers, he was fond of Lash and worried about him, wanted the best for him. It's strongly implied that he has a sexual relationship with his Fore-lesser, no matter who's in the role, and is extremely sadistic towards them. He can sense his sister and knows that every time one of her vampires dies, she feels the pain and loss.He can control the bodies of his lessers like they're puppets.When Lash visited him in Dhunhd, he describes his father as dressing as flamboyantly as Liberace. When cut, he bleeds black oil just like lessers do. He appears in the real world as a male figure in tattered white robes with an aura of evil, underneath he is a ghostly black form. Demanding, misogynist, and sadistic, he is evil incarnate. He's normally fickle, but can be rather focused, such as during lessening society inductions. Once Lash went through his transition, had some training courtesy of the Black Dagger Brotherhood, and most importantly, knew where to hunt most vampires, he turned Lash to his side.

He made sure that Lash was discovered by vampires to be taken in and raised as one of their own. Seeing a loophole in the prohibition against creation, he impregnated a female vampire to create a son, Lash, as a response to the Dhestroyer. Envious of her gift of a single creation, he set out to wipe vampires out of existence and formed the Lessening Society, an organization of undead humans, to achieve that goal The Omega is evil as a counterpoint to his sister's goodness so that their creation didn't disturb the balance of the universe.
