What was the bounty? Next round's on Gilbert!

I think around 500 gold

Heh, he is famous and rich.

Poor Pavel, he killed the second Overlord, but what did he get?
What is Freedom? - ye can tell; That which slavery is, too well; For its very name has grown; To an echo of your own

T'is to work and have such pay; As just keeps life from day to day; In your limbs, as in a cell; For the tyrants' use to dwell

Didn't Tom say Overlord is unkillable? So all daimon leaders are hero characters.
The battle message says he was killed by 2 different units. So who gets the bounty?

He was killed. Does that mean he's dead?

Was he even alive in the first place?
After all it's a roleplaying game.

Tom mentioned somewhere that Overlord is immortal- so I though that meant not killable, under any circumstances.

Round 4:
Overlord has been killed by Gilbert's Gentlemen (23).
Gilbert collects the bounty.

Round 6:
Overlord has been killed by Masters of Archer (36).

I guess that answers who got the bounty. As for Overlord, he has already been captured by Riombara and when we checked our dungeons we had a Son (or one of the commanders, don't remember). Basically who got killed was 10th Son, it seems.

Huh- so 10th son was in your prison, and got swapped with overlord, so overlord is now in your prison?

No, this happened a while back. Riombara captured Overlord in battle, but instead of Overlord appearing in our Dungeons it was one of his Sons. He basically swapped places to avoid imprisonment. He has done the same in Pomatim. Basically, the killing blow was dealt to the 10th Son, as Overlord swapped places with him (Or at least, changed the 10th's Son location with his). Technically, the Human Realms did not kill Overlord in Pomatim, they killed the 10th Son. Of course, for now, this was the last of his Sons, at least on Beluaterra. His safety measure is gone at least temporarily.

I assume the Overlord will reappear soon enough, alive and kicking, ready to continue his conquest. Then the Human Rulers will gloat about killing him, and the Overlord will comment how insignificant that is. :)

Overlord appears to be spiritual creature or possessive force, for lack of any better way to put it. He possesses the 'mortal' form of one of his Sons, which then becomes the Overlord. When the mortal shell is killed, he simply moves on to the next host. I wonder if he can be killed for real now that he seemingly has no more Sons left... I may be forced to eat my words if that turns out to be the case.

Not that I would mind :)

I assumed he'd always had control of Chénier.
