Re: Archenemy
*slaps forehead* Right, I forgot about all that. Whoops. And you COULD actually do some 'how such-and-such affected history' stuff - you'd just have to keep it in the context of the real world. For example, the bit about weretigers and the British colonial system - you could have a story revolving around how certain weretigers were members of Thuggee cults going up against the colonialists, reports of which were dismissed by the top brass as panicked exaggeration due to the Thuggees' fearsome reputation. Maybe one of them could have stolen an important artifact which has been passed down to his grandson, who now lives in Chicago, etc.
