Zorac
Zorac was a Time Lord and Lord Cardinal of the High Council.
Like all Time Lords, Zorac was taken from his family at the age of eight for the selection process in the Drylands. Staring into the Untempered Schism as part of a Time Lord initiation rite, Zorac was inspired by what he saw in the Schism. (PROSE: A Brief History of Time Lords)
Zorac was one of the High Councillors who sentenced the Fifth Doctor to death to stop Omega from taking over his body. (TV: Arc of Infinity)
Behind the scenes
In DWM 100, which gives a brief history of Gallifrey and the Time Lords, it is reported that Cardinal Zorac and Chancellor Thalia were the two High Council members sent to investigate events in the Death Zone by Borusa, where they both perished. A corpse wearing scarlet robes is found in the Death Zone by the Master, who recognises it as "one of my predecessors" (as Council investigator). (TV: The Five Doctors)
