== Trivia ==
# Albedo is Latin for "white". She is appropriately dressed in white.
# Cocytus is the name of a frozen lake in Hell.
# The video game Momonga played was called Yggdrasil. This was a term in Norse mythology about a mystical entity that connected all the worlds of the universe together.
# Momonga was named after "Pteromys momonga", aka the Japanese dwarf flying squirrel.
# Ainz knows 712 spells. The maximum one could learn in Yggdrasil was 300, but one could increase it up to 400 through the use of cash-items. Ainz had used his racial skill, Dark Wisdom, in order to learn spells through the bodies of his enemies and thus achieved more than twice the default number one spells one could learn without paying.
# The existence of anything above 6th tier is debated in the New World. Only 2 humans have been confirmed to have reached the 6th tier. 7th and 8th tier is said to only exist in legends and mythologies, but a few people know the existence of even 10th tier spells through the Nameless Book of Spells which seems to list all spells in the world, and as new are made the spells are added into it.
# The first raid of the Guild was on the Great Tomb of Nazarick, which then became their Guild Base. Because they managed to do the whole raid in one go, they gained 500 extra NPC data points and a World Class Item.
# While Albedo is the highest ranking NPC in Nazarick, she isn't the strongest. Out of the Floor Guardians, Shalltear Bloodfallen and Mare Bello Fiore would be able to defeat her.
# Players appear in the New World once every 100 years, with the first recorded ones appearing 600 years before the events of Overlord. Players can also appear in groups, with the largest group consisting of eight level 70+ players.
# The show was heavily inspired by the Authors tabletop RPG group which stopped playing together according to the Kono Light Novel ga Sugoi! 2017 interview.
# Touch Me was the Clan Leader of Nine's Own Goal, but resigned and said that Momonga should be the Guild Leader of Ainz Ooal Gown during the process of making the guild. After a moment of hesitation, Momonga agreed.
# Ainz doesn't need to use [Perfect Warrior] in order to equip his armor when acting as Momon. Ainz uses [Create Greater Item] in order to magically create a suit of armor. Because it's magically created, even a magic caster like Ainz can wear it.
# The World Champion and Paladin, Touch Me, was a cop in the real world.
# At the peak of its time, Ainz Ooal Gown was the top 9th guild in Yggdrasil. At lowest it was in the 48th position.
# Momonga's real-life name is Suzuki Satoru.
# Ainz Ooal Gown is in the possession of 11 World Class Items but has held 12 in total. Their first World Class Item by the name of "Atlas", was stolen from them while they were still just a clan. Two of the World Class Items which are in the possession of Ainz Ooal Gown belong in the Twenty.
# The three most intelligent beings in Nazarick are Albedo, Demiurge, and Pandora's Actor.
# Ainz cannot feel anything when killing humans. He has stopped being a human both physically and mentally. Even so, he tries to avoid unnecessary bloodshed.
# Albedo has been said to be able to tank a super-tier spell without taking any damage.
# If Shalltear Bloodfallen were a player, Ainz estimated her to be in the lower upper-tier of players. Ainz himself while wearing full equipment would be in the middle of the upper-tier.
# Nine's Own Goal was the name of the clan, which later became a Guild. To mark the start of a new beginning, they changed the name.
# Demiurge believes that Ainz is much more intelligent than him and has already planned years into the future when in reality Ainz is clueless about most things but pretends to be a good boss.
