Surprisingly well written compared to a lot of Overlord fanfics. I'm impressed by how in-line most of this feels to the canon LN and the character interactions have been interesting. I do hope you find the time to come back to this some day. Assuming it isn't abandoned of course. Have a nice day, and Kudos on the story.

Really fun fic to read, looking forward to future developments

By all that is holy, PLEASE CONTINUE THIS! I have to see the reactions of both Coco and Velvet when "Shizu" reveals her true colors.

Overlord is a Race, Eclipse a rare Class (not a skill [one of the Super/Over Tier spells he has was granted is due to that class, specifically "The Goal of All Life is Death"]) that Momonga obtained (apparently requiring a certain combination of classes [and maybe races] at certain levels [it hasn't been defined what is needed besides Necromancy classes])

Can I take inspiration from this work? Specifically how you made Raven get her **** thrown at her?

Anyone else get a Dumbledore/McGonagall vibe from Ozpin/Goodwitch?
So I was re-watching all of RWBY today and I couldn't help but notice the similarities between the characters. Ozpin has a very all knowing feel to him, always knows what is going on and feels he has to protect the children from the war even though we know they can handle themselves fairly well. I also get the feeling that he himself will only step in when things get really bad.

As for the Goodwitch and McGonagall comparison, they both have that very stern exterior but you can almost feel how much they actually care. I don't know maybe I am just grasping at straws here.

My Opinion on where Ozpin stands

Time and time again I've seen people be divisive about Ozpin - Either he's some monster manipulating people, or he's a goody two shoes and all his actions are justified.

Personally, I believe the following:

Ozpin has years of knowledge behind him. He has seen life pass and has no qualms about sending people into their death if it means humanity gets a fighting chance.

He knows exactly what to say and how to say it in order to convince people to follow his ways.

His teaching method at the academy was fairly brutal, allowing pimpsqueaks with minimal training and no aura like Jaune to get in. He doesn't exactly take the carebear approach and cherish all life.

He does not cherish all life, he has a cause and wants people to follow it so that the grimm can be defeated.

He's also a genuine idiot. He had all the relics at one point, but despite their power, didn't use them to stop Salem... To then decide to seal them away and give his power to 4 random mortals who can access the relics whose powers will randomly be passed on forever with no fail-safe should they fall into evil hands. Eventually, he chose three headmasters to guard the vaults and as far as we can see, one of them is a paranoid control freak who's far too confident with himself, and the other was an utter coward with no regard to killing off hundreds of huntsmen just to appease Salem. Terrible judge of character.

Despite his methods, all of the people he "coaxed" into saving the world were adults who willingly accepted one way or another. The ones bitter about it (Raven) are likely upset because he "keeps things close to the chest", only spit out a half truth before turning them into birds, and thus put a permanent mark on Raven's back who didn't want to be a part of it anymore after finding out the whole truth.

In the end, his goals are in favor of saving humanity and letting go of his curse. He keeps secrets because this way he has more control over who follows his agenda and to avoid secrets being unnecessarily revealed to the enemy.

He's an 'ends justify the means' type of good guy, while also being fairly dumb.

Oz’s a failed “Chosen One”. A paragon that’s gone through unimaginable grief and suffering yet still persists and is still mostly upright in terms of morals and ideals. Even when finding out that there was no way for him to destroy Salem he still tries to keep her back. He may have not had a plan to beat Salem, but I’m sure he was ready to stall her destroying humanity for as long as he could while still letting people enjoy themselves to their fullest. His experience is a great benefit but also shown to be his Achilles’ heel since it’s left him with a significant lack of trust in those closest to him due to all of the betrayal he’s gone through.

The way I see it, Oz is on the wrong foot of losing his war against his ex-wife Salem. Salem has brought the silver-eyed warriors to the brink of extinction, has made the Grimms have almost the entire territory of the planet to themselves, has developed a method to steal the magic of others (grimm parasite), has created hybrid eyed warriors Silver Plated-Grimm (Hound of volume 8), has cut communications between kingdoms, already has a plan to end the forces of Oz for good. Oz has made the following mistakes that have cost Remmant and his people too much, such as: -Gift most of his magical powers to 4 people without having a method to make sure whoever inherits them is trustworthy or get them back. -Hidden too much crucial information even from his closest allies -He has made Remmant too dependent on his guide and if something happens to him the line of command is almost broken. -He has been too focused on finding a way to destroy Salem that he has not thought of other ways to permanently defeat her such as sealing her, locking her in a pocket dimension (the vaults) or launching her into outer space. My theory of how the Dust originated are 3: -They are a fossil fuel that originated from the remnants of Remmant's first magical humanity. -They are the remains of the moon charged with the magical energy of the god of darkness -They are the crystallized accumulation of magic energy that is in the environment or Remmant's magic ley lines without using it. On the origin of the Aura it seems like a combination of reinforcement and protection spells plus a specialized spell (Semblance).

Oz as leader resembles a fusion of Dumbledore's (Harry Potter) manipulations and information concealment, Celestia's incompetence (MLP), treating others as replaceable chess pieces like Magneto (X-Men). For example, Oz did not place a single selection mechanism to the power of the maidens in dying (spoilers if each and every one of them appeared), he made Remnant dependent on the hunters and the atlas troops, he kept exaggeratedly secret information from Salem that he could have used for strategies, Beacon had a hideous computer security system and to top it all he entrusted the fate of the human and Faun race to kids with quirky fashion senses and weapons bigger than their own bodies. I also don't know how Oz didn't think of sealing Salem, throwing her into space or better yet a black hole, locking her in a pocket dimension or a way to permanently eliminate the Grimms, had the relic of destruction could have used it to strip Salem of his army of Grimms but foolishly decided to hide it like the other relics. But the point is that I say, if I had a coin for every time ozpin wasted an opportunity to destroy salem and / or the grimms would have enough to buy me a pizza.

Best Shizu story ever.

I've never really seen an overlord fic focus on a 'side' character and do it this well before. I honestly like it more than I thought I would.

I also enjoyed the world-building with the "Sapphire Queen," her castle, and the Grimm.

I hope you update it sometime soon, I really enjoyed reading it.

Finally found this story after ages, it's a shame it hasn't updated in ages. Do you think you'll ever update it?

Still waiting for a new chapter for this fic...

Dude pls continue writing this fanfic as it is very good

Pyrrha fought team CRDL 4 on 1

Please sir, may I have some more?

I Love this story. Your writing is very good and professional, your work is as good as any published author. Looking forward to more!

A solid story, enjoyable for sure. I do feel as if you are selling the RWBY characters short in terms of strength. I mean ranking many student hunstsmen as being weaker than Climb when they've proven capable of feats of speed, strength and ability WAY above anything Climb has ever done. Hell I'd argue the upper tier of student huntsmen could give a Death Knight or Death Warrior a tough fight 1 v 1, and likely win if they were creative enough with how the combined dust with their semblances and advanced weaponry. Personally I'd rank most student huntsmen as varying witihn the range of level 30 to 45 depending on their skill level. I'd honestly rate elite fully trained huntsmen at between levels 50 to 60, maybe even a little more for super elites like Qrow.

Of course I am nitpicking, lol, its really up to the author's own idea of how things work, so I won't judge on personal opinion. My own idea power scaling aside, I love this fic, its tons of fun.

Including a team of ocs would've been totally fine, you pulled it off well enough initially even though you did end up killing them off, however... your "WiLd HuNt GrImM" idea... Wow. What can I say? It was absolutely fucking retarded. I'm honestly surprised you came up with such a terrible idea since up until that point I was really getting into this. What a sad end for such a promising story.
