The brothers were noblemen who had given away their great wealth to the poor and had become hermits at Monte Nero near Septempeda.^[2]

Victorinus then withdrew to a cave near Pioraco.^[3] Victorinus was prone to strong temptations, and he inflicted upon himself a difficult and painful penance: he had himself tied to a tree, with his hands clasped between two branches.^[1] Victorinus’ particular method of self-mortification was depicted on a small panel in the church of San Venanzio, in Camerino, by the artist Niccolò da Foligno (called l'Alunno), who created the piece between 1478–80.^[4]

However, in 540 Pope Vigilius appointed them each as bishops of two separate sees: Severinus became bishop of what was then called Septempeda, later called San Severino Marche after him, in the Marches of Ancona; Victorinus became bishop of Camerino.

Severinus died in 545. His remains were hidden in the Cathedral of St. Maria in Septempeda to protect them from looting; found in 590 during the restoration of the cathedral, they were brought to Monte Nero.

There is a church dedicated to San Vittorino in Pioraco. Their joint feast day is June 8.^[5]
