Retired Evil Overlord Quest (Temp Title)

Reader mode
[x] Plan Hawkmoth

[x] Power Source Creation: You were an overlord whose strength came from his overwhelming might and the ability to amass followers whose loyalty was ensured by giving them special abilities.
[x] A world where magic and science fought in the dark
[x] Vampire
[x] Your wife/wives died and you had to deal with being a single parent
[x] A quiet little city
[x] A bunch of wannabe heroes keep trying to break into your house
[x] Some kid detective keeps snooping around
[x] Some princess keeps coming over and adventurers keep running around saying you kidnapped her
[x] Some witch cult keeps causing trouble




As a vampire, we would probably be able to blend in among humans when necessary, but have a good reason to stay in our lair at other times. Occasionally granting powers to useful minions so they can do our work for us.

If given the choice, I'd probably prefer to be a Lich, draugr, or some kind of genie instead of a vampire if possible. Or use moths or butterflies instead of vampire bats as part of our vampire motif (I understand the old legends of vampires had them able to turn into other animals like wolves instead of only bats).
 
It is currently looks like a tie between Dragon Mastermind and Dragon Emperor.

    [X] Plan monkey wrench
    -[X] Power Source Creation: You were an overlord whose strength came from his overwhelming might and the ability to amass followers whose loyalty was ensured by giving them special abilities.
    -[X] A world where magic and science fought in the dark
    -[X] Human
    -[X] Your wife/wives died and you had to deal with being a single parent
    -[X] A large city where heroes and villains keep fighting
    -[X] A bunch of wannabe heroes keep trying to break into your house

    Will: your sense of self and the ability to keep going, this can be used to curb your ego, resist mental effects, persuasion, and fight through incredible pain and odds
    Ego: This is your mental image of yourself. If it gets too high you are megalomanic, but too low is bad as well
    Leadership: Your charisma and ability to get others to follow you
    Planning: Your ability to form plots and direct others effectively
    Knowledge: The accumulation of what you know, common sense is at the lower end, and ancient knowledge is at the higher end.
    Power: It comes in many forms, but it is self explanatory

    Human: +2 Leadership +2 Planning +2 Will. As a human you know you were likely born less powerful than many of the other beings, but you have found ways to supplement that.

    Homeworld: +2 Knowledge +1 Power

    Power Source Creation: +10 Power +2 Leadership. Minions begin with Loyalty 3

    Tragedy: -3 Ego, +2 Planning

    Current Total

    Will: 2 Ego: -3 (Depressed) Leadership: 4 (Peak Human) Planning: 4 (Peak Human) Knowledge: 2 Power: 11 God

    So then overlord, just how old are you?

    [] Ancient: You are one of if not the oldest human alive in your dimension. Civilizations rose and fell while you watched +5 Knowledge +2 Ego

    [] Industrial: You saw the world change, and with it so did you. +2 Knowledge +2 Planning

    [] Modern: You have lived less than a single lifetime and have grown to contend with those much older than yourself. Will +2, Planning +2

    What was your origin?

    [] You were born with your ability. A gem in the rough. +4 Ego, +2 Will

    [] You studied the mysteries hidden within your world and created your power yourself. +3 Knowledge +1 Planning

    [] You are the creation of alchemists. Your body and power tailor made. +2 Planning +2 Knowledge

    What kind of overlord are you?

    [] Emperor Scientist/Sorcerer: +5 Knowledge. You were a teacher, then you gathered your best pupils to form a company. With that powerbase you began your journey.

    [] God Emperor: +5 Leadership. +5 Ego. Minions normally start with +5 Loyalty (Totaling at 8: Incredibly Fanatical). Not that you actually considered yourself a god, but realized the devotion the image could inspire.

    [] Shadow King: +5 Planning. You gained contacts either through crime or joining a government organization. Once you had enough you used your substantial leverage to your advantage.

    Choose a trait

    [] Attachment: You care for many people and things. You have an internal sense of when something is going wrong.

    [] Pride: You feel this in your abilities and when your minions achieve something. People tend to try very hard to impress you.

    [] Rage: .....When you feel it, whether hot rage or cold wrath, people see it. Then they tend to run screaming for the hills.

    Could you guys post and vote on an image to use? Otherwise I will find one.

    edit: An image other than The God Emperor of Mankind

    Plan Knowledge is Power replaced Rage with Pride. So that seems like it is in the lead.

    Another plan

    After moving to another dimension there were many things you had to do. Such as determine where you were going to live. Luckily this city had a plethora of homes on the market.

    And the...oddness of many residents made it so many were just like home. You were not sure if that was an improvement.

    You lived in a

    [] Western Style Mansion: Easily defensible, attracts moderate attention. Neighbors keep to themselves.

    [] Japanese style Traditional Mansion: Wide open spaces are nice for kids right, you do not have any neighbors.

    [] Gothic Castle: You have no idea where this came from, it attracts A Lot of attention, and it would take a tank to get through.

    [] Apartment: You bought the building so you have a stable income other than your horde of gold and jewels, but need to deal with incredibly annoying neighbors. Probably a good way for your kids to interact with people their age.

    [] Normal House: Nothing special, might be a bit cramped

    Your parenting style was

    [] Organized and Protective: You have lists for everything you need and make sure your kids have bird familiars flying nearby.

    [] Lax Tragedy makes this unavailable

    [] Aw look at my future protégées: Training them to be future overlords.

    [] Overprotective Dad: If it were possible you would be following them everywhere. You are a brick wall and nothing shall get through!

    Education
    [] Public School: They can meet people and be exposed to normal and fun life.

    [] Private School: Nothing but the best this world has to offer!

    [] Tutors: You have people to teach them, and can make it clear to the teachers what failure means.

    [] Teach them yourself: You are one of the first humans, one who has gained knowledge from other universes after mastering the science and magic of his homeworld. No one could teach them more than you!

    Child options (As many as you want)

    [] Tacitus: His main interest is magic and alchemy. He was born with the powers of Absolute Conversion. Perhaps the most inquisitive of your children. One of the few children with an active interest in following your footsteps, he thinks a robot army is a good idea.

    [] Alex: Definitely the jokester of your children. He is an Esper capable of many things though his focus is illusions

    [] Luce: Your son by a witch. He was born with the power of draining lifeforce from others to empower himself. He is incredibly flamboyant and greatly enjoys music. You might want to take his guns away.

    [] Charlie: Perhaps the one who has adapted to this new world the best, though incredibly quiet. He reads a lot of comicbooks when he isn't animating his toys.

    [] Yosuke: Aw what a cute baby. You don't actually remember where and when he came from. That might be a problem
    He manipulates differences



    [] Vatista: There was this one time you got drunk and built a deathmachine. You have no idea why you built it in the form of a little girl. You are doing your best to keep her away from the internet.

    [] Victoria: One of your oldest children, who became a vampire to attain immortality. She has the ability to cut things. Including noncorporeal entities and magic.

    [] Ashe: Another inquisitive child of yours. Unlike Tacitus Ashe focuses on more scientific pursuits. Born with the ability to manipulate technology, she leverages this for what could probably be considered 'mad science'

    [] Titania: A rather adorable daughter of yours. She is capable of manipulating light and dark magic in very odd ways. Though she is rather flighty and odd due to her fey heritage.

    [] Fortuna: One of your youngest children, and probably a good example of why you shouldn't reproduce. Raising a child with the ability to manipulate causality is incredibly confusing. Victoria's full sister.

    The vote for the MC pic is still open as well.
     
    Are there any votes for our character image?

    So far on SB there is one vote for Merlin image and 3 for Hetalia-America. And the latter really doesn't fit eons old sorcerer-scientist king even a retired one.

    edit: I meant SB.
