The Ooros were one of the two species that entered the Faction of Eight after the Urpox had, and were the last member who had joined before the Scryve had. According to the Urpox they were, "nothing special" and not very memorable. Their language had a lot of double vowels, so talking to them was quite soothing.

However according to The Librarian, they were considered a hated species, even among other members of the faction.

No record of their natural appearance survives, the only record is of the mass of wounds that covered their bodies.
