Ommin was a Sith sorcerer and also a direct descendant of the ancient Dark Lord of the Sith Freedon Nadd. After his father's death, he became the King of Onderon, as well as the Sith apprentice of Nadd. Early during his reign as King, he married the noblewoman Amanoa, and eventually the couple birthed a daughter named Galia, whom they intended to also be trained in the ways of the Sith.

As a youth, Ommin was instructed in the ancient Sith teachings by his father, the previous King of Onderon. When he himself became King after his father's death, Ommin's studies were continued and accelerated by the spirit of Freedon Nadd. When his relentless studies into the dark side began to have adverse effects on his physical body, Ommin curtailed them, retired from Onderonian politics and faded from visibility, leaving the rule of the planet in the hands of his wife.

The general populace of Onderon believed Ommin to be dead, and rumors of him actually being alive were unfounded until the death of Amanoa in 4,000 BBY at the hands of the Jedi. Ommin then returned to the forefront of Onderonian events, having survived through use of a special life-support system and in command of a Dark Side Army. Supported by the power of Freedon Nadd, the army waged war on the invading forces of the Jedi Order and Galactic Republic. In 3,998 BBY, Jedi Master Arca Jeth and his apprentices defeated Ommin and ultimately triumphed over Nadd's influence, finally bringing peace to the war-torn planet. The sorcerer-King of Onderon joined both his wife and Sith Master in death, with all three being interred in a mausoleum on his home planet's fourth moon of Dxun.
