The 41 Supreme Beings
The 41 players of the Guild Ainz Ooal Gown, the Great Tomb of Nazarick being their base. To return to the main character page index, click here. Ainz Ooal Gown (the guild) in General
One of the top guilds of YGGDRASIL with 41 members. The guild rose to prominence through the excessive purchase of cash items and possession of rare relics. One of their notable characteristics is that all of the guild members must play a non-humanoid race and must be a member of society. The guild itself is famous for its possession of eleven world class items, the most out of any guild in YGGDRASIL, and its occupation of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, transforming it into the most difficult dungeon and the ultimate impregnable fortress which no one could conquer.
- Anti Poop-Socking: One of their rules was you MUST have a life outside of the game and be gainfully employed.
- Badass Crew: A top ranked guild that owns multiple World Class items and a Guild Base that is renowned to be the hardest dungeon in all of Yggdrasil.
- Bribing Your Way to Victory: The guild owed their success partly through their willingness to splurge on pay-to-win items, though even those aren't their most powerful artifacts.
- From Nobody to Nightmare: Momonga and the other members of guild Ainz Ooal Gown were just players who often get discriminated for playing as non-human races. And then they thought if people are gonna treat them as monsters, then let them be one. They then became one of the most well-known and powerful guilds in Yggdrasil and their base is a dungeon infamous for being totally unbeatable. They were also a notorious PK guild; part of Momonga's plans involve doing good works so that their Guild's name would be associated with heroic acts.
- Legion of Doom: Back when YGGDRASIL was just a game, the Ainz Ooal Gown was a guild comprised of players with monstrous builds and karmically villainous characters, though being a game they were nothing more than Evil Heroes and Punch-Clock Villains within the game's narrative. After the game was shut down and became real, this was translated to them as an oligarchy ruling over a kingdom of monsters, all but Momonga "leaving" for unknown reasons.
- Only Known by Their Nickname: The real names of the people behind them bar Momonga's are unknown. Bellriver named himself after his real name (presumably Suzugawa), though.
- Physical God: In YGGDRASIL, Ainz Ooal Gown were a guild of top-tier players who had collected every item, made themselves rich with in-game currency, maxed out their character-stats and turned their castle into an unconquerable dungeon. After the game turns off and becomes real, the Player Characters are remembered by the NPCs as "Supreme Beings" worthy of nothing less than worship and Undying Loyalty. Considering how absurdly powerful Momonga is (and Momonga wasn't the strongest player), it would be understandable for them to think this.
- Posthumous Character: While most of them aren't actually dead, they basically are for all intents and purposes as far as the story is concerned - their characters are long-abandoned and we've yet to see any of them in the New World. Herohero is the only guild member aside from Momonga that we even get to see outside of flashbacks. (At least one of them is indeed confirmed to have been killed for knowing too much about the Corrupt Corporate Executives who are basically running the world.)
- Screw the Rules, I Have Money!: Decisions regarding assets of the guild, required a democratic consensus of the members to implement. This was because said assets belonged to everyone equally, even though certain individuals were allowed to make personalized customization on them. Ainz eventually discovers that several guild members, like Peroroncino (equipped Shalltear with an Auto-Revive item) and Tabula Smaragdina (equipped Albedo with a second World Item), made unsanctioned modifications to their most prized creations, because they had access to the resource that made it possible.
- Small Role, Big Impact: Most of them never appear outside of flashbacks if even that, but they are still responsible for the creation of Nazarick itself and especially its NPCs, who also take on some facets of their personality. Additionally, most of what Momonga does in throughout the series is influenced by his comrades in some way or another - his rare moments of mercy are driven by the memory of Touch Me, his greatest Berserk Button is pressed when the legacy of Ainz Ooal Gown is abused or tarnished in some way, and the overarching goal of pretty much everything he does is to hopefully find his comrades in the New World eventually.
- Then Let Me Be Evil: They were killed left and right because they were heteromorphs, so they decided to just be monsters.
- True Companions: The First Nine members of the clan that was the precursor of the guild were this to each other. And from the way Momonga remembers the guild, all 41 members were probably this to each other as well. It's probably also why members quitting or not showing up in the game hits Momonga even harder than normal, considering the fact that he had no such friends in real life.
- Unwitting Instigator of Doom: While there's no way they could have predicted their NPC creations gaining sentience and ending up in another world, the simple fact of the matter is that making most of them the way they did in the name of roleplaying an evil guild causes a lot of death and destruction without them around to give them or Momonga pushback.
Momonga
Touch Me
Touch Me
Voiced by: Ryōtarō Okiayu (Japanese), Jarrod Greene (English), Carlos Reynoso (Latin American Spanish)
One of the original founders of Ainz Ooal Gown and one of the strongest warriors in YGGDRASIL. He is the creator of Sebas Tian.
- Adaptational Wimp: According to Maruyama, Touch Me is much weaker in the light novels compare to his web novel counterpart due to strength differences. To wit, it's stated in the web novel that a World Champion could evenly and single-handedly take on as much as three upper high tier players at once, five upper low tier players, or even more players below that tier. Keep in mind we're talking max level players. In the light novel, while we don't really know his exact power compared to other players, he is at the very least not able to take on a powerful dungeon Final Boss on his lonesome - although he is still, at the very least, a Master of All.
- All-Loving Hero: He started Nine's Own Goal and Ainz Ooal Gown to be a home for all the players who were bullied for playing a non-standard race. On at least two occasions he is noted to have recruited players who were on the verge of dropping out because of this.
- Ambiguously Human: Touch Me's exact race was unknown for a long time, due to his full plate armor concealing his features. The prologue story eventually confirmed him to be some sort of insectoid/grasshopper monster. Makes sense as he's a "hero of justice". In earlier fanon speculation, it was commonly assumed that he, like his creation Sebas, was a Dragonoid.
- Atrocious Alias: Introduced almost like a reference to the typical MMO player choosing a joke name and then having it stick. Of course, the man known as Touch Me ends up as one of the strongest warriors in the game (and spoken with reverence by his peers). However, the name also serves as a Badass Boast of sorts, challenging foes to...well...touch him. But considering that he was one of the best tanks in the game...
- Badass Cape: Fittingly. Touch Me's red cape is a magic item that billows dramatically even when there's no wind.
- Big Creepy-Crawlies: Under the armor, he was a humanoid insect monster.
- Big Damn Heroes: When Satoru joined YGGDRASIL, he was instantly ambushed by a group of PKers (who look exactly like the players in the prologue) upon finishing character creation, and it's because Touch Me saving him and defeating them that he's alive.
- Boring, but Practical: Despite its prestige, this is what made his class so effective. As any IRL RPG player will tell you the hardest part of a Tank's job is generating and maintaining aggro. World Champion hits as hard as a dedicated damage dealer to help pull aggro, thus solving a Tank class' biggest day to day problem.
- Born Winner: It overlaps with Born Lucky in the World of 2138, as Touch Me is considered this by Ulbert.
- Friendly Rivalry: With Warrior Takemikazuchi. Also something of an One Sided Rivalry.
- Happily Married: The character sheet notes he has a beautiful wife, who's also his childhood friend.
- Hidden Depths: It is strongly suggested that, despite his seemingly idyllic life, he was a deeply conflicted person by virtue of being unable to reconcile his lofty ideals with the true nature of "police work" in the Crapsack World of 2138, causing him to turn to YGGDRASIL as a form of escapism. This makes his status as a Token Good Teammate in a guild full of horrific monster characters with negative karma values doubly ironic.
- Ideal Hero: Fights in the name of truth and justice.
- Incoming Ham: He had the ability to generate a meaningless explosion and the floating words "Justice Has Arrived" behind him whenever he struck a certain pose.
- I Owe You My Life: Back in YGGDRASIL, he saved Momonga when a group of players was about to kill him.
- It's Personal: Touch Me and Ulbert were always contrary to each other in the game because of Ulbert's jealousy towards him outside the game. Sebas Tian is not aware of this, but like Demiurge, inherited this aspect of his creator's personality.
- Knight in Shining Armor: Was shown to be like this in episode 3 of the anime, complete with shouting a justice-related expression as he saved Momonga. No surprise that his creations, namely Sebas Tian, took on those traits.
- Knight Templar: Was rather uncompromising in his beliefs, which may have led to his IRL fight with Ulbert.
- Left the Background Music On: Touch Me somehow had the ability to play a minute long piece of music wherever he is.
- Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me: He held a divine class heater shield called Earth Recover in his off-hand.
- Master of All: By virtue of having a Purposely Overpowered class. While he's not quite the best tank in the guild (Bukubukuchagama) nor the best physical DPS (Warrior Takemikazuchi, Nishikienrai), he was still the only member of the guild capable of tanking while dishing out tons of damage simultaneously. Most players needed a specialized build to do either without falling into Master of None - Bukubukuchagama is a Stone Wall with pitiful damage output, and both Takemikazuchi and Nishikienrai have awful defense.
- Morality Chain: The memory of Touch Me saving him when he was about to be ganked by a group of players drives Momonga to save Carne Village in turn.
- My Greatest Failure: Back when their group was a clan rather than a guild, he was a little too willful (or selfish, according to Ulbert) a leader. He ultimately wound up (possibly inadvertently) bullying Ulbert's best friend out of the clan and the game. Ulbert may have been willing to put it out of mind, but Touch Me certainly never forgave himself. This perceived shortcoming in himself is ultimately what makes him step down and dissolve his clan, volunteering Momonga as the new leader of the new guild in its place, Ainz Ooal Gown.
- Noodle Incident: We never learn precisely what iron-fisted leaderly decision of Touch Me's it was that hounded one of his clan members into quitting, but Ulbert never once misses an opportunity to wield the word "selfish" towards him like a weapon thereafter.
- The Paladin: It's in his title. He always stands up for the weak and helpless.
- Papa Wolf: The character sheet also notes that he's a good father to his child.
- The Power of the Void: Said to have wielded an incredibly powerful skill known as "World Break", which slices through the very fabric of reality.
- Purposely Overpowered: World Champion was a limited-use class similar to World Disaster, but even rarer, to the point that only 9 World Champions could exist in the game at any given time. Fittingly, the class is insanely broken, with Master of All stats suited to both defense and offense, to the point that a single World Champion could evenly fight against three similarly-leveled high-ranked players at once, basically being a boss character in player form.
- Red Baron: "Paladin of Pure Silver"
- Spoiled Sweet: He was born into wealth and is able to live a comfortable life while also being one of the kindest members of Ainz Ooal Gown.
- Suspiciously Similar Substitute: As well as sharing his beliefs, his creation Sebas Tian is also said to physically resemble Touch Me.
- Token Good Teammate: He was role-playing a stereotypical heroic character that believed in honor and justice, in a guild where everyone else was role-playing villainous monsters who wanted to destroy or rule the world.
- World's Best Warrior: The possessor of the World Champion class, which is only given to the very best of players after winning a tournament.
Tabula Smaragdina
Tabula Smaragdina
- Author Appeal: In-universe: he created Albedo to be an elegant and proper Lady of War while also being a total slut because he was a fan of "gap moe" (a dissonance between a character's looks/demeanor and true personality).
- Black Mage: Tabula is said to have been an even stronger magic caster than Momonga in terms of offensive power.
- Character Filibuster: Implied Trope. If any of his passions are ever mentioned, odds are it'll be coupled with mentioning how he talked Momonga's ear off about the subject.
- Collector of the Strange: Has quite a few unusual hobbies. In addition to horror movies, he's a fan of many TRPGs, and lectured Momonga on many mythologies.
- Complexity Addiction: Whether it's a security system, a trap design, or a character's profile page, you can tell it's from him if it bears this hallmark. Even though Ainz Ooal Gown is a guild full of all sorts of gifted artists, coders and writers, his creations wound up sucking up the majority of Nazarick's data allowance, to the point that he wound up purchasing a cash shop item to raise the limit as a way of apologizing.
- Cthulhumanoid: A humanoid with an octopus for a head, possibly an Illithid
. He may be a "Brain Eater" as this is Neuronist Painkill's race and Tabula looks quite similar to it, albeit less bloated. - Red Baron: "The Great Alchemist". This is even reflected by his Theme Naming as his creations Albedo, Nigredo and Rubedo are named after certain stages of an alchemical process and his own name is the Latin title of the Emerald Tablet, a famous alchemical text.
- Trap Master: Nazarick's most notable security systems and traps were all designed by him, and thanks to his aforementioned "meticulousness", they're nasty.
Ulbert Alain Odle
Ulbert Alain Odle
Voiced by: Hiroyuki Yoshino (Japanese), Patrick Morphy (English), Aldo Ramírez (Latin American Spanish)
A guild member of Ainz Ooal Gown and regarded as one of the 41 Supreme Beings by the Non Player Characters of the Great Tomb of Nazarick. He is the creator of Demiurge.
- The Archmage: He was of the strongest magic-oriented class in the game (World Disaster), like Touch Me was of the strongest melee-oriented class (World Champion).
- Awesome, but Impractical: His strongest spell is superior to even a Super Tier spell. It is so destructive that it instantly one-shots five high-level summons(levels 87-90), along with dealing tremendous damage to a boss that was initially overwhelming a party of five members of Ainz Oooal Gown. In return however, this spell costs 60% of Ulbert's mana pool.
- Black Mage: As a World Disaster, he was likely the strongest offensive spellcaster in the guild.
- Bonding over Missing Parents: Momonga had a surprisingly deep heart-to-heart with him in the middle of a dungeon crawl thanks to their mutually horrific childhoods. Momonga's bad childhood leaves him feeling close enough to him to admit that he thinks his grudge against Touch Me isn't particularly fair.
- Card-Carrying Villain: In contrast to Touch Me, Ulbert believed in fully embracing the image of evil with the associated flair for the dramatic (as seen in his design of Demiurge). Goes without saying that this was from a bygone era of relatively innocent virtual gaming rather than the present setting, in which Demiurge's inherited evilness is significantly more serious than applying fun evil tropes to a guild.
- Chuunibyou: Outright referred to as one, and indeed, with his fixation on evil, he was probably quite an edgelord. Perhaps this was his way of coping with his parents' deaths.
- Difficult, but Awesome: Despite being the strongest offensive spellcasting class in the game, the World Disaster class was Awesome, but Impractical for solo play due to the enormous costs of its powerful spells comparatively to its mana pool. Users of the class would often use disposable magic items such as scrolls and wands to save their mana, using their real spells only in a pinch, and even then they struggled to last long before having to rest. Played to its strengths, however, a World Disaster was effectively a walking panic button capable of wiping out or massively weakening an otherwise grueling encounter. With a single use of Grand Catastrophe, Ulbert was able to wipe out an entire group of fairly powerful (level 87-90) elementals summoned by a boss. Even that firepower came with a drawback in some situations, though - just keeping Ulbert alive required heroic efforts on part of his guild members as his most powerful spells were basically guaranteed to pull aggro from the tank.
- Glass Cannon: His specialty was inflicting massive burst damage in a short period of time, then hoping that the target didn't get back up. Because of his powerful spells' massive mana costs, if a foe managed to outlast his initial assault, they would find Ulbert fairly defenseless.
- Green-Eyed Monster: He admitted to Momonga once in private that he doesn't hate Touch Me for anything that he's specifically done so much as what he represents to Ulbert. Ulbert's life is shit and will never be any better because of factors that were never under his control while Touch Me seems to have everything a man could ever want without ever seeming to work for it at all.
- It's Personal: Had a deep seated and personal grudge against Touch Me that stems from their relationship outside the game, YGGDRASIL. Demiurge inherited these sentiments but not the reason behind them. He has come to rationalize it as merely hatred for Sebas Tian's "Stupid Good" alignment.
- Large Ham: He certainly seems to have had a flair for the dramatic.
- The Legions of Hell: Created an item that could summon a massive army of demons by combining six magic stones imbued with the 10th tier spell "Armageddon Evil" into a single statue. However, he ultimately deemed it a failure as he could not activate all six at the same time.
- Maddened Into Misanthropy: Ulbert hates the world and how it unjustly kicks people down before they have the chance to even stand up. Losing his parents in a work related accident due to unsafe conditions was the last straw for him. It's no wonder why he has such a fixation on evil and doesn't believe in justice.
- Man of Wealth and Taste: Undoubtedly a snazzily-dressed devil, wearing a suit, a Badass Cape, a hat and a rose on his shoulder. It's a quality he passed onto his creation Demiurge.
- Mask of Power: A golden mask, though it only covered the right side of his face.
- Meaningful Name: Of the Genius Bonus variety. Alan Odle was an English illustrator known as a precursor of surrealism, who depicted people as grotesque, ugly creatures - a perfect representation of the misanthropy that characterizes Ulbert.
- Our Demons Are Different: A goat-like demon.
- Parental Abandonment: Ulbert's player lost both his parents to a work-related accident, which is the reason for his bleak worldview and obsession with "evil".
- Red Baron: "Demon of Great Disaster"
- The Resenter: Of people who can get ahead in life through hard work. As someone whom fate really seemed to have it out for, having both parents die at a young age, receiving a pittance in worker's compensation, and barely finishing his elementary school education before being forced into the workforce, he could never get along with someone who had it all. Momonga quickly deduced that his grudge towards Touch Me was nothing compared to his pitch-black hatred towards society itself.
- Satanic Archetype: He's a demon who rebels against the forces of good, which he believes have scorned him.
- Signature Move: His Grand Catastrophe, a high-cost spell even more powerful than super-tier spells.
- Sour Outside, Sad Inside: In private company, he's willing to admit that he thinks his grudge is misdirected, and even seems ashamed of it, but if left to his own devices, he would flare up mutual hatreds all over again.
- Take Over the World: He jokingly proposed that Ainz Ooal Gown conquer the world.
- Then Let Me Be Evil: Fully embraced this mentality, in contrast to Touch Me.
Bukubukuchagama
Bukubukuchagama/ Simmering Teapot/ Bubble Bubble Teapot
Voiced by: Yūko Gotō (Japanese), Dawn M. Bennett (English), Andrea Ascencio (Latin American Spanish)
An eroge voice actress, she is the elder sister of Peroroncino and the creator of Aura and Mare. One of the three female guild member of Ainz Ooal Gown and regarded as one of the 41 Supreme Beings by the Non Player Characters of the Great Tomb of Nazarick.
- The Ace: A good enough main tank that she got more use out of an off-tank off-healer like Yamaiko than a dedicated main healer. She could skillfully manage Hate well enough that she didn't even need an actual weapon to fight with in order to generate sufficient amounts.
- Blackmail: Actual arguments between her and Peroroncino tended to be very short, because when she was truly angry with him (which was often), she'd just threaten to tell the others of what he did when they were younger. He'd clam up immediately.
- Blob Monster: Like Herohero, her avatar is some sort of slime beast.
- Draw Aggro: Bukubukuchagama was skilled in "Hate Management", allowing her to draw attacks towards herself and away from her teammates.
- The Gadfly: Like her brother, only more sophisticated; she had a habit of manipulating people into saying things that could be taken multiple ways and reveling in the awkward silences or acting devastated at their words if they did take the bait.
- Improbable Weapon User: Her weapon was just two tower shields.
- Mission Control: Often acts as a commander of Nazarick's forces, especially when the other members are away.
- Red Baron: "Mucous Shield" and "The Unsinkable"
- Sibling Rivalry: With Peroroncino.
- Stone Wall: Doesn't have much in the way of offense or other traits but equips many defensive items.
- Ugly Cute: Invoked. The contrast between her bubbly voice and mannerisms and her character's actual appearance is something she would insist was "guro-kawaii"...although it's also possible she just claimed that to trap people in situations where they might have to say that she wasn't cute.
Peroroncino
Peroroncino
Voiced by: Shinnosuke Tachibana (Japanese), Matt Ransdell (English), Erick Padilla (Latin American Spanish)
A guild member of Ainz Ooal Gown and regarded as one of the 41 Supreme Beings by the Non Player Characters of the Great Tomb of Nazarick. The younger brother of Bukubukuchagama, he is a fan of eroge and the creator of Shalltear Bloodfallen.
- Fan Disservice: In-Universe, he always had a certain dread when checking out a promising new eroge after a certain incident. Once, he purchased a game and was eager to "enjoy" it, only to realize that his sister Bukubukuchagama, a professional voice actress, voiced one of the girls in the game. That killed his enjoyment real quick.
- The Gadfly: Like his sister, only more annoying, and usually about sexual things. Derailing conversations into talk about sex, changing the party docket to fights against succubi, or harassing guildmates he thought might be gay were all common behaviors for him.
- Improbable Aiming Skills: Is listed as having "explosive skills" in archery. This could simply refer to his signature weapon, Houyi's Bow, which shoots blasts of solar energy, but as a high-level player about on par with Momonga, it would be stranger if he didn't have Improbable Aiming Skills. Ainz chides himself at one point for being in an open area without being cautious of the surroundings since he knows that there are archers like Peroroncino who could snipe people from at least two kilometers away.
- Innocently Insensitive: He sometimes pissed people off because he acted like an immature teenager, but according to Ainz he was one of the most conflict-averse members of the guild and wanted everyone to get along.
- Logical Weakness: His abilities are sub-par in enclosed places.
- Long-Range Fighter: As an archer, he is formidable at long range and sub-par in close combat.
- Lovable Sex Maniac: Most of the flashback quotes Momonga has of him tend to be hentai related.
- Munchkin: He is described as the kind of gamer who sought power at any cost. He's also responsible for Shalltear's insane combat specifications, that made her powerful enough to be the guardian of THREE dungeon floors.
- Noodle Incident: He did something when he was twelve years old that he's absolutely terrified of others finding out about. His sister Bukubukuchagama would always win arguments with him by threatening to reveal it.
- The Power of the Sun: His bow is imbued with solar magic.
- Punny Name: A mix of "peperoncino"note and "pero pero", Japanese onomatopoeia for licking.
- Red Baron: "Winged Lord of Bombardment"
- Sibling Rivalry: With Bukubukuchagama.
- Unblockable Attack: Shots from his "Houyi's Bow" can apparently only be blocked by magical means, which is unsurprising since the bow fires huge explosive fireballs instead of normal arrows.
- Winged Humanoid: He is of the Birdman race.
Punitto Moe
Punitto Moe
- The Chessmaster: He would gather as much information as possible before launching an attack. His comprehensive understanding of player behavior was enough that he was able to write a comprehensive and damn-near-foolproof "Anyone Can Easily PK" guide for the guild to follow. Momonga still follows its maxims even in the New World.
- Plant Person: His body is completely complied of an in-game plant species called the Death Vines. As YGGDRASIL seems to be very heavily based on Dungeons & Dragons, it is possible this race may be a Shout-Out to the iconic Shambling Mounds.
- Red Baron: "PK & PKK Strategist"
- The Smart Guy: He was The Strategist for Nazarick and his stratagems made the guild virtually invincible.
- The Spock: Momonga was frequently astonished by how many gut feelings he could avoid and how many unlikely but nasty possibilities he could bring up and plan against. Receiving a cash shop letter of support from him when he was agonizing about becoming the new guild leader was what made Momonga decide to agree to take up the mantle.
- The Strategist: Sets up strategies to use against other players and was the one to recommend a scouting team when formulating the plan to conquer the original Tomb.
Nishikienrai
Nishikienrai
- BFS: Susanoo is a massive ninjato that's three meters long.
- Dual Wield: His go-to weapons were Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi, a pair of daggers that shine with the radiance of the sun and moon respectively, having been named after the Shinto goddess of the sun and the god of the moon.
- Fragile Speedster: He got a rush out of living on a razor's edge. Nearly any attack meant for him would pulverize him in one hit, but the one time we see him actually take an attack, he somehow completely avoids all its damage through some ninja technique that the narration doesn't dignify with a description.
- Glass Cannon: His ideal build. With his stealth buffs engaged, he was the hardest hitter in the Guild.
- Katanas Are Just Better: His trump card ninjato, Susanoo.
- Limit Break: Can perform one when teamed up with Warrior Takemikazuchi.
- Ninja: In the prequel short story, the narration even broke from its usual clinical tone to go on a brief tirade to describe him.Described in a word, the speaker was a ninja. He wore the stereotypical ninja outfit and a weird mask, with two swords at his waist. Saying he was anything other than a ninja would be a lie.
- Min-Maxing: In whatever game he played, he had a true knack for sacrificing raw survivability for the ability to move and kill things faster. Although he was humble about it, this habit placed him firmly in the highest brackets of players, whatever the game.
- Powerful, but Inaccurate: Susanoo is a massive sword that swings slowly, making it nigh-impossible to use without first binding the target in place. But once it so much as touches the target, it spews out massive damage numbers that resemble a multi-hit combo attack.
- Red Baron: "The Ninja"
- The Sneaky Guy: Somewhat. He was usually placed in this role in parties, even though his stealth wasn't all that great, and his lockpicking and trap disarming skills were inadequate. The traps he detected could be brute-forced by Momonga's summons, however.
- Stealth Expert: His stealth abilities could have been better, but he used them in conjunction with his high attack to punish weaker enemies with a One-Hit Kill from behind.
- Thrill Seeker: Something he shares in common with Takemikazuchi. He discovered the especially well-hidden endgame dungeon that would eventually become his guild's base while sneaking, on foot, through a hellish poisonous swamp full of countless villages of a type of frogmen. They were infamously obnoxious for calling for help from any other frogmen within ear's reach (kinda like a certain other amphibious race from a certain very popular MMORPG). This particular poisonous swamp was quite wide, and all of the villages were within earshot of one another. He was doing this for fun.
Herohero
Herohero
Voiced by: Junji Majima (Japanese), Tyler Walker (English), Juan Carlos Rodríguez (Latin American Spanish)
- Bare-Fisted Monk: His main class.
- Bit Character: He is briefly seen in episode one of the anime.
- Blob Monster: Has the appearance of a blue, irregular shaped slime. His species is an Elder Black Ooze, one of the most powerful slime types.
- Hollywood Acid: His specialty in combat.
- Married to the Job: One of the few things we know about him is that the work hours he's forced into trample all over his country's labor laws, but there's not a thing he can do to fight it.
- Meaningful Name: His name, depending on how spelled it, could mean exhausted, limp, or droopy; all of these things apply to both him and his character. Another possible (potentially hidden) spelling of his name is also the Unsound Effect for acting like a jerk.
- Mooks Ate My Equipment: Herohero was that in player form, which is as terrifying as you'd think. He couldn't deal much damage, but his acid was potent enough to dissolve any equipment and weapons, even bypassing immunities, making him an absolute nightmare for players relying on powerful enchanted equipment (read: effectively any high-level player).
- Nice Guy: Seems to be a really kind and polite person if his last conversation with Momonga is anything to go by. Of course, given he did create the much, more vicious Solution Epsilon...
- Red Baron: "Ancient Black Slime"
- Square Race, Round Class: Due to their fluid bodies, slimes in YGGDRASIL had naturally high defenses but took penalties to attack damage. This is great for a tank such as Bukubukuchagama that uses taunts over damage output to Draw Aggro... slightly less optimal for a physical "damage dealer" class, though he had the unique ability to destroy even powerful enchanted items to compensate for this.
Yamaiko
Yamaiko
- Even the Girls Want Her: Has stated in the Blu-Ray prologue story that a younger classmate has confessed to her before.
- The Grotesque: Unlike the other Giant player races, a Nephilim can never be anything other than hideous in appearance. Momonga noted that hearing a kind, gentle woman's voice coming from something like that only served to make her character more frightening. Apparently, she found this oddly satisfying.
- Hot Teacher: While it is not shown what she looks like, Yuri Alpha was designed to look like her which implies she was this. She was an actual teacher in real life.
- Leeroy Jenkins: The reason why she's called Musclehead Teacher was because of her tendency to charge on head first into combat without even gauging the opposing force's capabilitiesYamaiko (to her fellow members): I forgot my opponent's data, so let's just charge on head first and retreat when they are strong.
- Nice Girl: Is noted to have a kind and gentle personality, as appropriate for the resident healer.
- Our Giants Are Bigger: She is a Nephilim, a race of gigantic, repugnant-looking humanoids.
- Punched Across the Room: Her signature weapon, Female Sensei's Iron Fist of Wrath (or Iron Fist of the Schoolmarm in the anime), has low damage but very high knockback.
- Red Baron: "Musclehead Teacher"
- Squishy Wizard: Averted. Her healing spells, high regeneration and heavy defenses made her into an effective Stone Wall. To compensate for that, her damage is minuscule and her mana reserves are low.
- Stone Wall: Her talents are almost a 50/50 split between tanking and healing. For most races and gear loadouts, this would be an unworkable Master of None setup. However, because she's so good at not needing healing herself, and because she can manage stray enemies with her knockback, she can just shoot out minor heals as needed with disposable wands and only cast proper healing spells in a crisis, so her minuscule mana pool never becomes a problem. When paired with the right tank, this oxymoronically makes her one of the best healers in the guild.
- True Beauty Is on the Inside: One of the nicest people in the guild, who also happens to be an enormous, disgusting-looking creature with huge amphibian-looking eyes.
- White Mage: One of the foremost healers in the guild, with powerful heals and revives.
Warrior Takemikazuchi

- Cavalier Competitor: Faced with the idea of tackling an endgame dungeon with no real preparation or foreknowledge, he insisted on just doing it, saying that gear was just gear, and any lost experience could just be earned back, but an opportunity to have an actual thrill never could.
- Defeating the Undefeatable: An ambition of his was to defeat Touch Me. Touch Me was the user of a Master of All class excelling at both offense and defense, and could evenly take on three high-tier players at once. Takemikazuchi was a Glass Cannon. Needless to say, despite creating one "Touch Me-defeating" weapon after another, he never managed to achieve his goal.
- Everything's Better with Samurai: He certainly seemed to have a bit of an obsession with samurai, given that he not only fashioned himself into one, but also made one out of his creation, Cocytus.
- Exactly What It Says on the Tin: He was indeed a warrior.
- Friendly Rivalry: One-sided with Touch Me. It is implied that when Touch Me left the game, so did Takemikazuchi since he no longer had anything to yearn for.
- Glass Cannon: His defenses were weak, but he is said to have been the highest physical damage dealer in the guild (which included World Champion Touch Me, so this is quite the feat indeed).
- Infinity +1 Sword: Was in the process of building one, the Takemikazuchi Mk 8, when he left the game. Ainz made use of it later.
- Our Giants Are Bigger: A Nephilim, just like Yamaiko.
- Leeroy Jenkins: A self-proclaimed "fool", he is... not much of a planner, to say the least.A total party kill is just part of the fun.
- Limit Break: Can perform one when teamed up with Nishikienrai.
- The Nicknamer: With Nishiki Enrai. They were Take-yan and Ken-ya to each other.
- Red Baron: "The Samurai"
- Summon Magic: While he was a physical damage dealer, it seems that his ultimate combination move involves summoning the spirits of legendary mythological figures to smite his foes.
- Thrill Seeker: Shares this in common with Nishiki Enrai.
- Ultimate Blacksmith: While the real title would go to Amanomahitotsu, Takemikazuchi's hobby was fiddling with and crafting new weapons, custom-tuning them for a special purpose each. He was always on the lookout for that ultimate sword, under the mistaken belief that it was the one thing standing between him and his victory over Touch Me... making a new ultimate Touch Me-defeating sword every time the previous one failed. By the time of the story, he'd gone through eight.
Others
Luci★Fer
Voiced by: Kentarō Itō (Japanese), Z. Charles Bolton (English)
The creator of Kyouhukou who has trouble communicating with others.
- My Friends... and Zoidberg: Ainz holds great love and fondness for all his fellow guild members. Despite this, when Ainz reminisces about Luci★Fer, he mentions that he did not really like him that much.
- No Social Skills: It's stated that he has trouble communicating with other people and made people think he was malicious when he went into lengthy diatribes about something he's interested in.
- Troll: He created the Lion Golem in the resort spa who would attack his fellow guildmates that would attack his fellow guildmates and he's the one who created the infamous Kyouhukou and presumably also his cockcroach pit. His character card explains that he wasn't really malicious, but didn't realize others had a problem with it because no one showed any signs of outward anger over it.
Flatfoot
One of the 9 founding members of the guild. He was an assassin.- Ambiguously Gay: Peroroncino certainly thought so.
Bellriver
- He Knows Too Much: He heard disturbing information about the megacorporations in the world, and was killed for it.
- Jack of All Trades: As a magic knight, Bellriver could use both the sword and spells in combat.
- Master of None: As a consequence of dividing his focus between warrior and magic caster skills, Bellriver is seen as subpar in both, especially at level 100. He compensates by being a skilled Player.
- Posthumous Character: He was assassinated under orders of one of Japan's eight megacorporations before Satoru was pulled into the New World.
Amanomahitotsu
- The Blacksmith: Seemed to be in charge of the creation of weaponry for the members of the guild.
- Giant Enemy Crab: Was some kind of crab-man.
- I Will Only Slow You Down: The reason he avoids fighting, so as to not be a burden.
- Multiarmed Multitasking: His art seems to have him building something with three hands at once.
- Non-Action Guy: He tended to stay out of the way of the actual fighting, due to lacking in combat abilities.
- Red Baron: "Gourmet Blacksmith"
Blue Planet
One of the 27 members of the clan that joined the Ainz Ooal Gown guild later on. He is a lover of nature and created the 6th floor's night sky.- Artificial Outdoors Display: Coded some the night sky of the 6th floor of the Tomb.
- Irony: Despite being a Nature Lover, the nature he loves no longer exists in the real world courtesy of corporate pollution. Therefore, he recreates it inside YGGDRASIL.
- Nature Lover: He liked natural scenery, something which is stated to be all but lost in the real world.
Ancient One
One of the 9 founding members of the guild.- Leeroy Jenkins: Had this attitude. The raid on Nazarick that led to it becoming their Guild HQ was his and Takemikazuchi's idea.
Genjiro
The original creator and owner of Ainz Ooal Gown's Treasury in the Great Tomb of Nazarick. Also the creator of Entoma.- Irony: Despite being a Neat Freak who was behind Nazarick's treasury, he created Entoma, who is ironically one of the messiest and most ghoulish Nazarick NPCs.
- Neat Freak: Spent most of his time organizing Nazarick’s inventory and claims that he is this. Though Ainz does doubt this.
Beast King Mekongawa
One of the 27 members of the clan that would become the guild itself.- All in the Manual: More like according to the mobile game, but in Mass for the Dead, he is listed as Lupusregina Beta's creator.
Whitebrim
A guild member of Ainz Ooal Gown and regarded as one of the 41 Supreme Beings.- Serious Business: Was obsessed with maids to the point he made the protagonist of his manga a maid.
- The Perfectionist: Made his assistants cry with his obsessive attention to detail.
The 42nd
A colleague of Ainz Ooal Gown. Possibly Yamaiko's younger sister Akemi, who visited Nazarick on several occasions yet was not a member of the guild.- One Extra Member: The Great Tomb Non Player Characters labeling of the 41 Supreme Beings clearly omits them.
- Sixth Ranger: They weren't a guild member of Nazarick and none of the Great Tomb Non Player Characters consider them a Supreme Being. Despite that, they were given a Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown, which granted them instant teleportation access to the entire dungeon. The light novel also mentions that Momonga had 41 people in his friend list, and such a list would not include the sender himself.
