What, or who, exactly, are the Overseers? You've definitely seen them on the Roblox catalog before - from the classic Overseer package, to the Dominus Praefectus, to the Overseer Oversleeper Terrible Teddy, their powerful-looking black and green eyes are instantly recognizable to nearly every Robloxian. But have you ever stopped to think about their origins and lore? Where did they come from, why are they so popular, and why are they so into eyeballs? As it turns out, depending on who you ask, the answer is far more complicated than one would expect. Today, let's dive into the complex and mysterious history and lore of the Roblox Overseers.

I love how everything about the overseer society is so serious and then there’s just ninjanick3

The overseers were my favorite medieval faction honestly. They immediately took my heart because of how cool they looked compared to the rest, you nailed the reason I liked it. I always thought overseers existed to keep peace between the factions and were as you said, superior to the rest.

This is why I love old roblox. They were much more connected to the community which allowed them to make lore for packages and items on the catalog

I've never taken a look if the Overseers have any lore behind them. I always thought they were the most rich group when it comes to their lore. They seemed the most attractive out of all the clans. Thank you for making this video, really appreciate it!

It is rather interesting to see a video about the Overseers considering they never had any actual lore or group, from what I know and have heard they were only intended by Roblox as a item and toy brand. Though how the Roblox community have managed to create groups and lore about it amazes and mesmerises me. It would be great to see videos about the space lore.

This is the only guy that actually makes good Roblox documentaries. Thanks for the great video!

It would be much more interesting if instead of "The Undersmellers" being the Overseers worst enemy, the samurai everyone forgot about from way back could be the ones who killed the first Overseer empire.

For a clan loving of chaos, they're oddly organized

Nitro is the type of guy who would make very niche roblox documentaries, and also documentaries about items nobody knows about but still make it interesting to listen to.

“so, the overseers have no lore” proceeds to make a video almost as long as the video covering the 4 main clans

I only found this bc of Phighting! and i just.... I never would have thought that Roblox had ACTUAL lore in the past, ive never even heard of these groups before! But its all so interesting :000

What's sad is that the undersmeller group is owned by a bot

How far your editing has come since that first lore video is truly insane, keep up the genuinely amazing work
@ollieisasillygoose 11 months ago

Thank you Nitrolord, for introducing I and so many more people to the Knights of the Splintered Skies and the rest of the Loreverse. If I ask people where they discovered the Loreverse, 9/10 people would say from you, keep up the good work, love your videos.

Meeboids need a faction like this this! They have two hats though the classic Meeboid head says " Meeboids are a peace-loving race, however, since they look so sinister they are hunted throughout the galaxy. " and the Murderous Meeboid says "This sinister creature isn’t interested in baking cookies and singing songs." This means the Meeboids are most likely a friendly faction. There enemy could be the orinthians because there in space and that is kind of it.

something else I've noticed is that the models for the various overseer items are far more rarely used in games, whereas almost all of the other clans have had their stuff, especially armor models, appear in other games many times, sometimes reskinned(such as the sunken warrior set and Theos' original armor back in Arcane Adventures), or not, such as is the case with starscape's armors(RIP starscape, so much potential down the drain)
@cloudykid7278 11 months ago

Actually it makes sense that there's barely any lore about them is Chaos is their philosophy and they purposely make their ranks as convoluted as possible to confuse outsiders

I’ve always wondered what the Overseer series of items we’re connected to… (Well, obviously it’s connected to the Overseer, but I never knew his backstory.)
@pukeboybuckethead 11 months ago

Thanks for including my game (Overseer Tycoon) in your video. Even though you were just showing off the models that I grabbed off the ToolBox (Lol). I appreciate it, though.
