Greetings and Dark Joys of the Unholiday Season,
As legend holds, long ago through many years, the traditions of Ubermas have been passed down, Villain to Villain, group to group, conclave to conclave. Though there have been many Epic Tales and Paeans written that have hidden and secret meanings far too Malevolent to reveal to readers, One will share this first with you now, with a treat for your appreciation at the end.
Long ago, so long as to almost be forgotten, Villainy assembled in a hidden stronghold, and conspired to unleash an idea of Evil greater than any other; An idea putting forth the creation of an Unholiday of Greed, and Pride, and Selling Out. This most fell of unholidays would be accompanied with Opulence, Feasts, Bragging, the Darkgod Krelm, Skullian Pranks, and unknowable rituals. It would put into stark contrast the Holidays you know, and their reflection in Evil.
But there, in the darkness, where Villains worked their Evil, a concern arose.
Who would determine the exact Date of Ubermas each year?
The turmoil in the Cabal shook the halls of power. Some Villains thought one day, and others another. No consensus could be found. And so, as Villains will, a terrible and bloody war broke out, and many minions were E-Liminated. Powers accumulated were squandered in warfare. Influence waned as Villains would All go To-The-Limit to achieve Ultimate Victory, and the vanquishment of their foes.
But Villains don't vanquish easily, and so the war raged, and ravaged the world of Evil.
Until...
Villains, their daggers drawn, placed firmly on the backs of each other, hearts targeted for crushing, came to the First Tradition of Ubermas.
Since no date could be set without Villains disagreeing, then Ubermas would begin on the day in December, when the first Villain in Evil Standing declared that it would.
The declaration must be public, and as Villains are wont to, must be made with the Authority only a Villain can carry. A Villain does not Ask when their Will will be fulfilled. A Villain simply Tells.
And so, this year, the First Villain in Evil Standing to Declare the Season of Darkness to have fallen upon us is the Overlord.
