* UglyCute: The Minions. Rose and Velvet even give them the charming nicknames of "Cherubs" and "Pixies" respectively. Visually fearsome to the point of hideousness. But they make the most adorable sounds that two metal objects scraping together can evoke. To hammer the point, the minions are a cross between E.T. and the cuter moments of Sméagol. They can look downright adorable, for example with the sequence in the tutorial of the second game where the minions disguises themselves as children, then they begin to sing...

The first overlord [[spoiler:was a Hero who was brought back from the dead and made evil by the minions.

** Flame thrower dwarves. Getting past even ''one'' is beyond difficult, and fighting ''more'' than one is a LuckBasedMission. Averted with the use of red minions, who are completely immune to fire while the flame thrower dwarf himself is not. Also averted with a solo overlord, who can literally run circles around him without worry.

* FridgeBrilliance: When looking at both characters, it becomes clear why the Overlord of I is an AntiVillain while his son in II is always evil no matter what. The first overlord [[spoiler:was a Hero who was brought back from the dead and made evil by the minions. Something must be left over that drives him to good, even if it's filtered through PragmaticVillainy]]. The Overlad, contrariwise, was raised by Gnarl for the better of 13 years. Plenty of time to know "proper" evil compared to dear old dad.

Added entry. I saw it on the Overlord Wiki, and checked out quite a few fanfictions as well. It's pretty common.
Added DiffLines:
* {{Fanon}}: A surprisingly large amount of fanfictions seem to agree that the Eighth Hero was either a Knight or [[MagicKnight Magus]], and named Gallant.

* UglyCute: The Minions. Rose and Velvet even give them the charming nicknames of "Cherubs" and "Pixies" respectively. Visually fearsome to the point of hideousness. But they make the most adorable sounds that two metal objects scraping together can evoke. To hammer the point, the minions are a cross between E.T. and the cuter moments of Sméagol. They can look downright adorable, for example with the sequence in the tutorial of the second game where the minions disguises themselves as children, then they begin to sing...

* SugarWiki/MostWonderfulSound:
** A lot of players get at least a little happy every time one of their minions says "For Da Overlord!", "For Da Master!", or just plain "For you!".
** The "Recall Minions" sound is pretty satisfying too.
