[Tome] Overlord

[ubernoob]

I'll need to decide whether they're a vaguely useful blob that moves around and minorly penalises/hurts enemies (or gives them something fun to 1-shot) and can exist on their own, or should be a pretty hardcore thing that also replaces your character.

Chances are, one of these options means weakening them, the other means strengthening. They're probably, at the moment, too good to have on top of manoeuvres, but pretty shitty to replace your character with.

That's pretty much spot on.
