I've already posted here once for help, but the rather secretive nature of that post didn't peak anyone's interest, so here I am again to give a more detailed description of Overlords.
_______________________________________
Back story:
250 years from now, the world is once again engulfed in the terrible conflict that is World War 4. Since the days of using soldiers as weapons, the world's super-powers have dedicated the 100 years last prior to WW4 developing the ultimate super weapons with which they can decimate any opponent that challenges them.
When the war erupts, the nations either not involved or against the war, decide to gather their most brilliant minds in a specially designed fallout shelter where they will be safe from harm (called the Overlord Project)
The (relatively) newly formed Empire of Kiribati is caught off guard by the sudden attacks by the invading forces and they are forced to use their untested and incomplete super-weapon on the invaders as a last line of defense.
This incomplete weapon's use resulted in the near-total annihilation of all life on Earth. Fortunately the "Overlord Project" was a complete success and the greatest minds from over 100 countries survived the devastation.
Unable to leave the bunker, the Overlords (as they called themselves) monitored the conditions of the world outside for suitability, and cloned (or conventionally created) offspring to take their places since it was obvious that they world wouldn't be habitable for many years to come.
About 300 years after the almost total destruction of mankind, the overlord’s decedents decided that the world was hospitable enough to sustain the life they were going to soon bestow on the still hostile world. But something happened that the Overlords hadn't accounted for, other people had survived the blast and had created offspring (and so on and so forth for 300 years) and it was these that knew the truth of the world and what had happened. Quickly the Overlords descended back into their shelter and began cloning super soldiers that would be used in yet another war. This war was relatively long, compared the last one (which lasted about a week or so), taking months in which the "Knights" (genetically enhanced super soldiers) attempted to wipe out any and all traces of the survivors. Once they believed themselves to be successful the Overlords began creating new inhabitants for Terra (the new name for Earth), which took about 50 years before they got it right (any and all genetic "mishaps" were released upon the world to act as the new wildlife of Terra, along with the mutated surviving animals) It was decided early on by the "new" Overlords that these new people needed to worship them as gods, as well as be kept unaware of the true state of the world (until Terra recovered from its wounds).
However the Overlords weren't entirely successful in their persecutions of the survivors, those that weren't killed barricaded themselves in what is called "The Forbidden City" (not the once in China) where they thrived and grew, unbeknownst to the Overlords.
The way that the Overlords achieved this is by implanting each and every new clone with a microchip in his or her brain that allowed the Overlords to control everything that each person's senses. Most of the time smell and taste were left alone. But touch, sight, and hearing were modified 24/7 as to maintain the illusion that is Terra.
For over 100 years the Overlords maintained this control over the populace as it grew, then you came along.
