Barinom was one of the Garidian Followers of the Lawgiver Avatrunei and one of his disciples on Frigis. He believed that the path to enlightenment lies in searching for the truth since only it would free one's souls; he promoted humbleness through admitting one's ignorance. The sect formed after his teachings was the Seekers. Barinom also made a copy of the Fifth Scroll which his followers claimed it was a 'true copy'. (TNG video game: A Final Unity)
