The Minion is a creature that acts as the players servant and army in the Overlord series.
Bio[edit | edit source]
Minions are relatively small, goblinoid creatures who are fanatically loyal to the forces of evil - more specifically, the respective Overlord in charge. Although a single minion wasn't too much of a threat for an armed warrior, their tendency to enter battle in massive hordes more than made up for this. They also were not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but some individuals like the elderly Gnarl showed they could develop a surprising degree of intelligence - and cunning.
Minions come in four distinct flavors: Brown minions are the basic bruisers, and will happily loot arms and armor from defeated foes after the battle to improve their own combat prowess. Red minions are ranged specialists that launch fireballs from afar, while green minions preferred to backstab enemies with poisoned weapons. Blue minions, finally, are designated team medics that can bring other minions back to life if they should get a particularly serious knock to the head.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
A Minion, guided by the Overlord, took part in the mook-themed 8chanmania LXXXIV. While it achieved an early victory against the F.O.E., the dim-witted Minion soon tapped out and literally danced alongside the moves of a Morolian.
