Quick notes
- A new Overlord inherits an old adviser. The sequel’s protagonist is a different ruler, while Gnarl returns to guide the minions.
- The household follows the conquest. Kelda, Juno and Fay have different connections to the lands the player visits.
- The Empire provides the main organized opposition. Emperor Solarius leads a power hostile to magic and magical creatures.
- Keep character roles separate from horde roles. A mistress or adviser is a story and Netherworld figure, while minion colors determine field abilities.
