In this interactive you become a powerful overlord who wishes to take over the world, build an evil empire, and maybe eat some pudding. You have vast armies, destructive gadgets, and an inpenitrable H.Q. to help you in your quest. Use everything at your desposal as you set fit. Now get out there and take over the world...ALL HAIL THE OVERLORD!!!!!


List of characters


The overlord: That's you! The overlord is destructive, vile, and mean-spirted. Or maybe crude, nasty, and spiteful. OR maybe just misunderstood, its kinda up to you...

Appearence: However you want them to look. You can make them wear pink bunny pajamas for all I care.

Abilities: Whatever you want as long as they arn't some all-powerful planet destroyer. Give them a weakness or two to balance them out.


Important minions

These guys are all vital to your evil empire.


Mr. Winslow: He is your nervious 2nd in command who has a strong fear of...well, several things really, but mostly you. He is your typical yes-man who won't say no to even your most unreasonible requests. He has been your most loyal minion for several years.

Appearence: He has brown hair and is a little short. He always wears his business suit and tie. He also keeps his reading glasses, hankerchef, and gold pocketwatch on his person at all times.

Abilities: He can file paperwork, read over documents, find loopholes in contracts, and handle all the business aspects of your evil empire better then any lawyer or accountant in exsistence. He's also REALLY good at typing.


General Mindlock: He is in charge of the evil army under your command. He may seem cynical and sarcastic at times, but he takes his job seriously and will follow any and all orders given to him.

Appearence: Tall with short light brown hair along with a short beard and mustashe. He is never seen without his generals uniform.

Trace: He is basicly a hired mercenary who will lend his services to whoever pays the most. He will do whatever you ask of him, but only if he gets a paycheck. There's been a bit of a tension between you and him ever since he killed a group of your minions for making fun of his sunglasses.

Appearence: He has slicked-back hair and wears a flame jacket and sunglasses.

Abilities: If it is alive, he can kill it. There are things others can do better then him, but he can do anything fairly well. The only thing he is not good at is fixing his broken microwave.


Other minions

Your less important minions are numbered #000 to #999.


Minion #267(Zack): He is a dedicated and loyal follower, but often causes trouble and breaks things by accident. Because of his willingness to follow any order and total disregard for his own well-being he is useful for sending on missions that other minions would rather avoid.

Appearence: He has light brown hair and always wears his minion uniform.

Abilites: He has amazing luck. He has been sent on over 22 suicide missions and never came back with more then a minor injury. He is also a decent mechanic.

Minion #822(Sarah): A simple-minded minion who doesn't like evil, but had to take a job as a minion to pay for collage. She seems to show up and disappear randomly which really annoys the people who work with her. Dispite being a minion for an evil overlord she would never do anything bad personaly.

Appearence: She has long blonde hair with pink high-lites. She also has blue eyes and often wears something in her hair(mostly ribbons). She never wears her minion helmet because it would mess up her hair.

Abilites: She is so cute and innocent that no one could stay mad at her for more then a minute. She can also cook and sew. (She once made sweaters for everyone on christmas.They were awful looking and a little itchy, but no one could bear to say anything bad about them).


Other characters

Gadgets

Feel free to use all or none of these fearsome devices.


Shrinkray: A small hand-held device that can shrink things down to the size of a molocule. It also has a grow feature that can make things grow up to five times its normal size. The target can remain shrunk( or grown) for a maximum time of one hour. Uses AA batteries.

The C.L.A.W.: The C.L.A.W. is a metalic claw-shaped glove that can be worn on a hand or even a paw or tentacle. It is strong and sharp enough to cut through steel and can shoot lightning when it is fully charged.

Informer: A small gadget that looks like a high-tech wrist watch. It displays info on anything you would want or need to know about. It also has a handy scan feature that can be used to give you infomation on anything it scans. All this and it can access the internet too!

Jet boots: Let's face it, jetpacks are cool, but they are also clunky, heavy, and way too hard to control. Why risk being more easily injured when you could have everything a jetpack has in a smaller, sleeker package. These boots can do anything your old jetpack could do, only better and safer. Plus it runs on recycleable fuel cells that don't pollute the air like a jetpack would.

Laser gun: It shoots lasers and its a gun.

Evil cane: What looks like a harmless(yet awesome) cane is really one of your most powerful wepions. It can be wielded like a sword or...well, thats pretty much it...but it is really cool looking and indestructable to boot.

Sinister cape: It looks like an ordinary cape...because it IS an ordinary cape! Mwa ha ha ha...oh, and its fireproof.

The mindmaster: A remote control that can take control of anyone within 10 feet of you. Its effects last for 5 minutes at a time before needing to be recharged. If a mind controled person leaves its 10 feet radius at any time the effects wear off and the person is returned to normal.

Really stylish goggles: They do nothing!

Shuriken gun: Admit it, you've always wanted one of these. In addition to normal shuriken it can also shoot elemental shuriken.


Vehicles

Show off all your cool vehicles to your enimies.


Night specter: The night specter is your all-perpose personal jet. Armed with wepions and gadgets galore it has enough power to knock most other aircraft right out of the sky. Its also really cool looking.

Doom buggy: An all-terrian armored buggy that is equiped with several wepions and can also transform into a boat.

Hellishcopter: A fierce and intimidating battle helicopter that has duel machine guns, a long-range flamethrower, missle launchers, a mini-nuke, and cupholders.

The T.A.N.K: The T.A.N.K. is just like any normal tank...except ten times stronger and able to float on water. It is also faster then a normal tank.

Roadripper: You know that really cool motorcycle from Ghostrider? This is basicly the same thing.


Rules

1. You have complete control of the overlord, including their appearance, gender, and powers. Heck, they don't even have to be human!

2. Mild cursing is fine. No F bombs, S bombs, or slurs.

3. This story is mainly adventure/comedy. How much of each is up to you though, the story can be dead serious with few funny moments, or a grand comedy that can't take itself seriously for a minute. Using both in equal amounts is also encouraged.

4. Don't abuse the powers or gadgets, this is NOT an interactive for fetishes. Mild sexual content is allowed, just don't go overboard. If you want graphic sex stories go elsewhere.

5. Agent X, like the overlord, can have whatever attributes you see fit. Just don't make them too powerful.
