Overlord Synopsis
Yggdrasil is a virtual reality game
known for the freedom it offers its players. After a simple tutorial, players
can explore the world and customize anything from their classes to their
weapons. However, in the year 2138, the game sees its final hours when its
servers shut down at midnight. Momonga, a devoted Yggdrasil player, decides to
spend the final hours of the game inside his guild, Ainz Ooal Gown. Curiously,
at the stroke of midnight, the game does not disconnect it. Instead, Momonga
finds himself transported to another world, one that is seemingly identical to
that of Yggdrasil. Faced with an already abnormal situation, he discovers that
the NPCs have gained sentience. Trapped in the skeletal body of his avatar and
desperate to discover the cause of his situation and find other players like
him, Momonga sets out to take control of the new world with the help of his
loyal subjects.
