=================================================================
Characters:
Ramtalos of Kator
Height: Approx. 5'10"
Weight: Unknown.
Age: 17-22
Build: Slender yet muscular build, built for agility and speed over strength.
Skin: Dark skinned like his mother
Eye color: Red, Unknown why. (there is a reason)
Hair: Black and slicked back, short so it doesn't get in his eyes.
Mother: Jewel, the Thief
Father: Unknown, possibly Kahn.
Background: Raised by his mother, so has extensive thieving experience and training, spent all his life living in Kator up until the story. Grew up on stories of the 8 heroes, the Overlords, and his mothers exploits and how even now she wasn't satisfied, but had been forced to lay low after the events around that. Had a childhood friend that left several years before he became the overlord to join the Saipern Armies Ranks.

Gerbil
Height: At most 3 ft.
Weight: No more then 55 lbs.
Age: Unknown, he isn't even sure.
Build: Hunched, hobbles, and uses a cane, thin and not the ideal minion.
Skin: Well, Grey-brown and wrinkly, he is a Brown Minion After All xD
Eye color: Yellow, darker then most minions.
Background: Originally a Tower Minion during the Reign of several masters, still not nearly as ancient as Gnarl though, and on his very first assignment outside the tower, was banished because he failed to keep the gateway to the Infernal Abyss open due to the traitor Quilt. Lost a leg and fingers to sand worms in the desert before accidentaly coming across a lost minion tribe. Now he tries to make things wrong again by guiding his own Overlord Candidate.

Anjie Sah-katar
Height: 5'4"
Weight: Light, won't give exact weight.
Age: 2 years younger then Ramtalos
Build: Rectangular, not exactly giving in the assets department, but very fine features.
Skin: Dark like most Ruborians.
Hair: Black, shoulder length, usually tied back in a pony tail while she is in combat.
Parents: Unknown
Background: Raised by parents in Kator, was against the Saipern empire when they first took over the city, but soon learned to accept them. Grew up similarly to Ramtalos, same sort of stories of the heroes and the Overlords, and inspired her to try to be great herself. She was so inspired, that 3 years before the events of the Otherlord, she joined the ranks of the Saipern Military and left the city till recently, returning a trained soldier that couldn't advance because she was female, and unsatisfied with the lack of adventure she was expecting. First kiss was with Ramtalos by the fountain when they are young.

Minion Tribes:

Rock Minions
Can spawn from Brown Life Force
The largest of the natural minions born minions in general, as well as the dumbest naturally, and considering minions, that's saying something xD
Covered in plates of rock, has rock like spikes sticking out of various parts of body and a prominent lower jaw.
Quiet slow usually, but high attack/defense.
Sweeping them makes them roll into boulder form which causes high damages to most things it runs into and allows them to move much faster, heavy or larger creatures can stop them in there tracks, though some large bi-pedal creatures usually get tripped up from this.
If they crash into a wall head on while rolling, they will be temporarily stunned and unable to move.
Reason for being a rejected tribe: To dumb to be of use, usually running into each other or into clearly dangerous situations usually leading to there own premature demise.

Storm Minions
Can Spawn from Red Life Force
Storm Minions were a bit of an experiment, a different kind of magical minion not based on healing magic, but electrical.
The experiment was a success(sort of), these minions have partially metallic bones, their horns, claws, and teeth being the most dense of the metals. They are able to absorb, generate, and redirect electricity, as well as boost magical potential(important).
High speed and energy, but weak physical attributes.
Making them hold at a marker makes them create an electrical barrier, multiple markers create an electrical field between them, good for controlling the movement of  lesser creatures, more powerful and ranged opponents may still be able to break through, armored/weapon wielding opponents extra vulnerable. Also, sweeping them onto metallic surfaces or near water greatly increase there range.
Special - Upon death, they release all there electrical energy, once synched with there Overlord, the energy won't cause harm to him or his minions, however will stun and damage most enemies.
Reason for being a rejected tribe: The failed part of the experiment was the fact that the electricity made all the Storm Minions highly mentally unstable, they would electrocute each other and explode at random intervals due to their insanity caused by overly charging.
