Biography
THE DEMON LORD OF NORDBERG

The fourth Overlord, or known as Overlad or the Witch-Boy, is currently the last Overlord. Overlad was the son of the legendary third Overlord who was currently trapped in the Infernal Abyss. His mother, left the Dark Tower and was found outside the gates of Nordberg. The third Overlord's empire was destroyed due to the Great Cataclysm that destroyed the upper levels of the Dark Tower. Overlad, who is still a boy, was found by a group of brown minions near the town's outskirts. Many disliked Overlad. But there is one person named Kelda who has a mild crush on him. Then, he was raised by minion master Gnarl, and rose to become an Overlord.

THE LEGACY OF OVERLAD
 * Overlord 2 (PS3)

Opening
Overlad feels a strange power near Nordberg. Since Gnarl left him, he has heard a lot of news around Nordberg. About certain people who wants this strange power. Overlad feels that this strange power must have a connection to his father who is trapped in the Infernal Abyss. But, Overlad "snaps-out" of the power's connection to his father. Then, Overlad decides he will take this strange power source for himself to wreck havoc not only in his world but in the others' world.

Rival
Name : Lord Gromgard

Reason : Overlad was walking at the rival stage. Then, he sees another warrior who resembles him a lot. Then, Overlad approaches the warrior. The warrior, which is Lord Gromgard, stares at Overlad, so does Overlad. Lord Gromgard was angry when he sees Overlad is an "impostor". Overlad commands Gromgard to reveal himself. Gromgard says that he is the first Overlord. Overlad doesn't believe this and reveals himself as the fourth Overlord. Hearing this, Gromgard offers a truce to Overlad. But, Overlad refuses the offer and prepares to fight, saying that this "magical" source of power belongs to him. While Gromgard says that the power source is destined for him, Gromgard prepares himself to battle Overlad.

Connection : Both of these characters are from the Overlord series. Both of these characters are also the "Alpha and Omega" of the Overlords. While Lord Gromgard is the "first" Overlord, Overlad was currently the fourth Overlord, which is currently the latest Overlord. Both of these Overlords have minion master Gnarl as their "advisor" or "second in command of the minions". Gromgard doesn't like any type of woman due to the fact his sister is cruel to him, while Overlad loves woman than his father, which is an inheritance.

Ending
After, Overlad took Polygon Man's power, Overlad began to conquer other worlds. The first world he conquered was successfull. The 2nd world he conquered also was completely successfull. Even annihilating the ruler of the second world himself. Then, Overlad began to wonder, which world shall he conquer. After deciding which one to conquer, Overlad sets another conquering quest.
