Cast timeline : Main cast ("Starring" in opening credits) : Secondary cast ("Also starring" in opening credits) : Recurring guest star (Guest starring for 3+ episodes) : Guest star (Guest starring for 1–2 episodes) Main inmates Key Other inmates The Aryans The Aryans are a fierce gang. Led through the whole series by the charismatic Vernon Schillinger. They are racist, nationalist, tough and like to have what are known in the series as "Prags" (The show's term for a "Bitch"). They, and mostly Schillinger himself, take up most of the Oz rape statistic. Curiously they rarely have feuds with the Homeboys but rather with the Muslims.
