Who is Orini?

Orini is a denizen of the Dark Dimension and the father of Clea, connected to the ruling lineage of that mystic realm. He appears in the mystical corners of Marvel's Doctor Strange stories as a figure tied to interdimensional sorcery and Dark Dimension politics.

Stepping out of the mystical corners of Marvel's Bronze Age, Orini made their debut in Strange Tales #184 in 1976 — a comic bearing the legendary creative fingerprints of Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. This figure moves through the shadowy, arcane world of Doctor Strange, keeping rarefied company alongside Stephen Strange himself, Clea, the Ancient One, and the sinister Baron Mordo. With appearances catalogued across nearly five decades and a home in some of Marvel's most celebrated mystic collections, Orini may not be the loudest name in the Sanctum Sanctorum's halls, but for fans who love the rich, strange tapestry of Marvel's magical corner, that's precisely what makes discovering them such a rewarding find.
