"Browns are melee fighters. Their policy is bash first, jump up and down on the carcass later."
 * "Browns are toughest of all the Minions. They're never ones to shy away from a
 * fight. In fact it's quite difficult to get them to stop! Such is their dedication to the fight that Browns can also use many different objects as weapons." — GnarlBrown_Minion_Bomb2.jpg

Browns are the basic minions that you start out with and are subsequently the most versatile of all the minions. Brown minions are born fighters and will gather Minion Equipment that will help them in battle (such as swords and armour) as well as things that have no relevance in battle (like pumpkins to wear as hats or Melvin Underbelly's crown.) They can sustain the most damage and can hold their own in a fight. They can not go through water, fire, or toxic gas however, so whilst it is important to always have some with you, it is generally a good idea to have some of the other minion clans with you as well. Also they,unlike the other minion tribes, do not have tails.

In Overlord 1 they were able to, just like the Greens, jump on enemys if they attack them from behind or on large enemys. This renders them immune to attacks from that enemy, until they were shaken off or called back. However, in Overlord II they seem to have lost this ability.

Browns can be upgraded by Rose for free (if you choose her instead of Velvet). As of Overlord II, Browns can ride wolves, also known as "Good Wolfy", as mounts.

As of Overlord 2, they appear to have grown some manner of fur or it is simply Fur Armor they have.
