Orisas is a god worshipped by the Gorbesh and the Kaldar, which are an offshoot of mainstream Gorbesh society.

Her Domain being Spirit, Orisas is the mightiest and most venerated goddess. Known as the Ghostly Mistress, Orisas' name is true and her Domain does represent her well -- the Lady is no more than an incoporeal soul, pale and ethereal white. Clutched in her ghastly hands, the only physicality about her, is a brightly shining globe, the Kaneija. The Kaneija, a snowglobe, holds within it a vast field of ice, and in the center, a city of bright life. The Lady of Spirit takes the souls of the dead and dying Gorbesh within the Kaneija, and for that she is revered -- Orisas offers the home of the dead. The Meumos Prophecies tell us that when the time of Ilaehl comes, she will throw down her globe in a fury, and the Kaneija will shatter into a million spears of light. The spirits of the Gorbesh will be freed from their eternal home and will arm themselves with the spears of light, and the Ghostly Mistress will lead the armies of the dead in battle. Orisas' planet is Osec.
