You are a Boss. You've always been a master of monsters, a builder of dungeons, and a hunter of heroes. For many years, you've competed with other Bosses in contests of prowess and villainy. Now it's time to emerge from the underworld. It's time to shape a new land and bend it to your will. It's time to claim your crown as the ultimate OVERBOSS!(Storyline via IGDB)
