The Omniss are a pseudo-religious, philosophical movement espousing peaceful doctrines. The Omniss movement is especially prevalent among the agrarian worlds of the Outworlds Alliance. The sect flatly rejects nearly all forms of technology - only technologies directly associated with the preservation of life should be utilized by mankind. The Omniss argue all other forms of technology simply aid the ability for man to fight man. The Omniss missionaries go so far as to disrupt industry and protest development within the Periphery, and have been a substantial factor in the lack of development within the Periphery.
The Omniss movement was founded on the Capellan world of Hsien. Whether the Omniss were founded as a direct result of the anti-war protests of Julius Santiago Avellar, or if the movement simply found a mouthpiece, is unclear. However, the Omniss migrated to the Avellar's home, the Periphery world Alpheratz, and helped to establish the Outworlds Alliance.
