Overlords

Overlords are your starting fleet commander for each mission. Each one has a unique power they can use during combat, as well as their own schemes. You start with 1 overlord unlocked for each faction, and more can be unlocked as mission rewards, at which point they will be unlocked forever, even on new games.
