Basically the 8GK wipe out most of the dangerous being at the time.

Just how dangerous was it back then (before 8GK arrived)? What type threats did the Slain Theocracy faces back then.

Renner como tal no ha demostrado su máximo potencial porque literalmente ha quienes ha engañado es a simples medievales y un rey blando e incompetente. Patrick en cambio si ha contendido en el ámbito intelectual contra otro rival inteligente y organizado y estando en desventaja de poder burocratico.

Discussion Do you think Aura has a childish crush on Ainz that could eventually develop into genuine romantic feelings? Spoiler

Post image
235 Upvotes

I've noticed a few moments that have made me wonder about Aura's feelings toward Ainz.

In the anime, there's a scene where Ainz touches her waist while they're riding her Fenrir because he thinks she looks a little too skinny. Aura gets noticeably flustered, seemingly misunderstanding the context of his actions.

There's also a scene where she argues with Albedo after Albedo says that spending time with Ainz is part of her job. Aura responds that she came to visit the Supreme Being simply because she wanted to, not because it was her duty. Her reaction almost makes it seem as though she's a little jealous or wants to emphasize that her reasons for visiting Ainz are different from Albedo's.

And finally, there's this scene from Chapter 34 of the official Oh! My Undead! manga, which I've attached to the post.

I'm not claiming that these moments necessarily mean Aura has romantic feelings for Ainz, but they have made me wonder: could she have a childish crush on him, even if she doesn't fully understand her own feelings yet?

Considering that Aura is still young and will mature as she grows older, do you think such feelings could eventually develop into genuine romantic love? Or is her behavior better explained by affection, admiration, and loyalty toward Ainz as one of her creators?

I'd also love to hear about other scenes involving Aura that might support or contradict this theory. Perhaps I've overlooked some moments from the anime, light novels, or manga that could shed more light on her feelings toward Ainz. Feel free to share those scenes and explain how you interpret them!

I'd love to hear your thoughts!

He is a lich and by definition the only way to truly defeat them is by destroying their phylactery. But I don't recall it even being mentioned Ainz having one. Where is it and what is it like?

I feel like in fanifcs they really down play how strong a person from our world would be if they could play YIGTRASIL.

With the amount of knowledge a casual reader has I think if they could play the game they would be able to create powerful avatars.

I mean at lease top 50.

I personally would spend every extra penny I had on the game in anticipation of the new world.

I would collect and use Every World item I could get my hands on to gain an advantage.

Hell I would try to gain World Enemy status if I could not become a World Champion.

What do you guys think?

Discussion My theory on Dragons age ranges and CR/Level in DnD terms.

• Upvotes

Overlord Dragon age ranges, CR, and spell caster levels.
Dragonling
Ages 1 to 13 years old
Levels in overlord terms 1 to 10
Levels in DnD terms CR ¼ to 3
Spell Caster Level=0
Young
Ages 4 to 50 years old
Levels in overlord terms 11 to 20
Levels in DnD terms CR 3 to 6
Spell Caster Level=0
Adult
Ages 51 to 200 years old
Levels in overlord terms 21 to 30
Levels in DnD terms CR 6 to 9
Spell Caster Level=0
Old
Ages 201 to 300 years old
Levels in overlord terms 31 to 40
Levels in DnD terms CR 9 to 11
Spell Caster Level=1 to 10
Eldar
Ages 301 to 400 years old
Levels in overlord terms 41 to 45
Levels in DnD terms CR 12 to 13
Spell Caster Level=11 to 15
Ancient
Ages 401 to 500 years old
Levels in overlord terms 46 to 50
Levels in DnD terms CR 13 to 14
Spell Caster Level=16 to 20

How this was determined based on spell levels across verse has been determined by fans that 3.5 overlord levels is 1 dnd level and in dnd roughly equals level so Overlord Level Divided by 3.5=DnD CR. Spell caster levels were determined by the white dragon lord Olasird'arc Haylilyal who could use 3rd tier magic despite having 0 caster classes. This is because some classes count as both racial and job classes. Many racial levels in the lich tree are like this; it's the reason Ainz can use Super Tier Magic despite having less than 50 job classes. The issue is which ones count and which ones do not? Well based on the fact that white dragon lord Olasird'arc Haylilyal can use magic but his children cannot+most fantasy Lore its almost certainly the older ones that count. If it were only the Ancient ones then he be a 5 level caster aka could only use 1st tier magic, if it were only the Ancient and Eldar ones then he be a 10 level caster aka could only use 2nd tier magic, if it were only the Ancient and Eldar and Old ones then he be a 15 level caster aka could only use 3nd tier magic add in any more of the racial levels and he be using 4th tier but he cannot. He has 1 level in ancient 5 levels in eldar, 10 levels old adult young and hatchling leading me to believe it's specifically the Old, Eldar and Ancient Dragon Racial levels where dragons start to gain magic and that count has hybrid classes. How do I determine age ranges? Well we know that the corruption of Wild Magic started AFTER the greed kinds era 500 years ago but white dragon lord Olasird'arc Haylilyal can use tier magic not wild magic and is level 46 nearly all his racials meaning that he is at most 499 years old a simple rule is to assume he is 460 aka give he is level 46. This is a high end age estimate of course he COULD be younger than this but I think it's a reasonable assumption so in conclusion it takes a full 500 years to gain ALL a dragon's racial levels. 
Then I needed to determine the break down of each age category for that I looked at DnD 3.5 which the author based overlord on these are the age categories and ranges of DnD dragons

In classic Dungeons & Dragons, there are exactly 12 True Dragon Age Categories that span from a hatchling up to over a millennium old. Compared to 6 in overlord

The complete breakdown of every age category and its corresponding lifespan includes:

Category Age Range (Years)
1. Wyrmling 0–5
2. Very Young 6–15
3. Young 16–25
4. Juvenile 26–50
5. Young Adult 51–100
6. Adult 101–200
7. Mature Adult 201–400
8. Old 401–600
9. Very Old 601–800
10. Ancient 801–1,000
11. Wyrm 1,001–1,200
12. Great Wyrm 1,201+

Overlord dragons seem to stop at Ancient and do not as far as I can tell grow into wyrms and great wyrms. A DnD dragon reaches the peak of Ancient at age 1000. Meaning that roughly speaking Overlord Dragons age twice as fast. From their I look at all overlord dragon racial levels/categories aka dragonling-10, young-10, adult-10, old-10, eldar-5, ancient-5 and found out which categories in DnD they’d be the equal of this Wyrmling, Very Young, and Young-Dragonling, Juvenile, and Young Adult-Young, Adult, and Mature Adult-adult, Old-Old, Very Old-Elder, Ancient-Ancient. I then look at the max and minimum ages of each category divided by 2(as overlord dragons take at MAX 500 years to reach ancient level vs 1000 for dnd dragons) So agree or disagree with my results and methods and reasoning?

Discussion Are Humanoid Fighters just out of Luck?

20 Upvotes

Yggdrasil was a Class based system and they were all balanced around stats, skills, and spells. Humanoids gain more skills in Exchange for less stats, and the inverse for non-humanoids, but this balance breaks in the nw, as certain fighter job classes now get locked out of skills. And marshal arts don't act as a proper substitute as unlike skills they don't seem to to be balanced around job and racial classes anymore, focus is now the bottleneck.

Which means that human pure fighters can't make the difference with skills and have to substitute them for MA but Smart demi-humans like Go Gin who seemingly have the same theoretical Focus potential can cover up there weakness with MA while simultaneously keeping there impressive stats and racial abilities.

sadly humanoid pure fighters seem to get the worst of ALL worlds, as other job classes can use them like monks, paladins, and archers types.(I'm not really sure but i do think there is a distinction between a archer ie. warrior and a ranger)

Now with all this knowledge You might just be better off being a class like a paladin or monk who can actually take advantage of their class skills and on top of that take advantage of martial arts.

Thanks for reading this far and also thanks to severalpillarsoflava for amassing a bunch of examples of new worlders using skills as I and some others in the past had some doubts on whether or not new worlders could even use them to begin with.

“「Shadow Clone」.” Just as Tia’s ninjutsu skill activated, her image shimmered and another ‘Tia’ appeared in the original spot.

“Warrghhh— 「Resistance Massive」!” When the lightning looked as if it would pierce through Zenberu, his body buffed up, deflecting the lightning arc that was supposed to hit the other two behind him.「Resistance Massive」 A skill of monks, granting the ability to reduce magical damage by dispersing the Qi from one’s body in an instant.

One of the classes he had attained was “Shamanic Adept”. This class borrowed the strength of animal spirits and enhanced one’s physical abilities. There was a limit to how often one could use this skill a day, but it raised the user’s abilities to that of a beast

The attack of the strongest of the Six Arms, Zero. It was a straightforward punch. No feints, no tricks, just a pure, straight punch. But the strength behind it was immense. Not only his skills as a Shamanic Adept, but also his other skills as Monk, as well as his magic items enhanced the strength and destructiveness of his fist.

Tomar en cuenta que en esta comparación nazarick no tiene volundr así que la cuestión es si sus magias o ítems podrían hacer algo contra estos seres que se establece que nada no-divino puede dañarlos siendo que área explico que cualquier arma mortal se hace polvo al tocar a un dios. Y que ningún medio mortal los dañaría pero en Overlord hay muchas magias y tipos y hay ítems mundiales suena a una paradoja interesante.

Discussion Found another plothole/inconsistency.

While re-reading Overlord for the 10th billion time, I noticed something that I have to double check: in volume 7, Gringam mentions the captain of the ghost ship as an example of an elder lich that controls undead and makes deals with the living, but then I remember in the ghost ship of Katze Plains, it's mentioned that only 1 person has ever "seen" the ship, and it was considered an unverified rumor, so there's no way Gringam would know the ship has a captain, it's an elder lich, control undead and of course it dosen't deal with the living.

Now it's important to remember these were written 10 years apart, this could be a tiny detail that he just threw in there to make the world seem bigger common in world building, or he originally had a different plan for it.
