Spoiler Alert Spoiler Alert: WARNING! This page happens to contain a lot of heavy spoilers that are all originated from the Overlord Light Novel series written by the author Kugane Maruyama. To every Anime-only watchers and Manga-only reader out there viewing this warning, please mindfully consider your decision first before choosing to expose yourself on reading the information below. If you're not currently up-to-date with the main source material in the official books, do consider staying away from the page for non-spoiler sake until you actually read it first ahead of time.



Gigu is a goblin tribe that lived within the depths of the Great Forest of Tob.

Background

The tribe was led by Chieftain Ah. At one point, his tribe became associated with a tribe of hobgoblins. Through this interaction, he and his mate adopted Agu, a young hobgoblin child.

The goblins learned of the creation of the Monument of Ruin and its epicenter for undead activity through the surviving warriors that managed to escape. The tribe also noticed the increasing activity of the two forest rulers and the disappearance of another. Realizing that something foreboding was on the rise, the tribe decided to split into smaller parties to find a new home.

After the tribe divided itself, they became weaker and thus allowing the Giant of the East along with his forces to easily take control. As a result, Gigu was forced to join the troll's army on their war against the Monument of Ruin. Yet at the same time, the goblins suffered heavy losses as many of its members were killed and eaten by the trolls army for the slightest infraction. Although there were some attempts to escape elsewhere like the Southern Forest, they continued to be ruthlessly hunted down one by one in numbers.
