| The Twins of Doom are world famous on Terra Prime. Well, make that
infamous in some quarters, and famous in others.
Okay, sit down for this one. It's a lulu!
See, depending on the popularity of the current powers that be determines
how popular the Twins are to the average citizen of a nation. The coming
of the Twins of Doom denotes that there will be disaster coming to the
head of a nation. Disaster as in sudden death or some such. It's
a prophecy thing, and as such the details of HOW and exactly WHAT will
happen to WHO are vague....to say the least. However, ask a Terran if they
believe in the Twins of Doom....they'll say yes and even show you pictures
of what they look like and how they will arrive. Amazingly enough, this
is the ONE thing that almost all religions on Terra Prime agree upon!
This is due in large to a young man who had been the protagonist in
a "sector" of the multiverse called by the name of "Addventure" by some.
In one of the "story threads" of a universe, Scott Chen gained the powers
of a something called an "Author," a being something in the realm of Q
from Star Trek as far as power goes. Somewhat unstable from the whole deal,
as the demonic entity who called himself the Brazen Man (read episodes
7608 through 7645 using the first options to get an overview of how he
is now) knew he would be. Scott entrapped several "Authors" who were people
who thought that "Addventure" as only a game online ("their" Addventure
was, but the "Author" Scott Chen found them and thought that these "Authors"....mere
humans.....were the Authors who had tortured him without respite throughout
his life).
.......
Who's to blame for all of it? I leave it to the philosophers!
Anyway, after this and other minor episodes of sabotage, the Brazen
Man finally met his end when he met up with the rather angered Department
Heads (metaphysical personifications charged with promoting things like:
Good, Evil, Order, and Chaos in THIS sector of the multiverse).
Scott, meanwhile, had thrown Betty Ragan into a universe called "Game
2." He then went hither and yon to spread dark rumors about the Twins
of Doom. The dark things that would happen IF the Twins showed up on
a certain "world" varied....but the event would lead to no good. Scott
even reached Terra during the time of Atlantis and spread the rumor of
the Twins appearance would bring about the downfall of the nation's leader,
this was left vague as to which leader.....which nation....and just HOW
this "downfall" would happen , centuries before event. Scott even provided
pictures of what the twins looked like, and what they would arrive in!
Strangely enough, this setup that Scott had set up mutated little over
the thousands of years until the arrival of the Doctor's TARDIS....
Scott was able to turn a Betty into a duplicate of the stunning redhead
woman known as Melissa. Thus the Twins of Doom were born. Scott was able
to throw them into a world where he had poisoned the people against them.
Bored, he decided to have them, instead of being lynched by the medieval
peasants, to be picked up by the Doctor from Dr. Who. Scott had set in
motion for the Master to blow up the VLH of Stacy's Earth, sterilizing
the planet for some clients of the Master. The Doctor caught wind of this,
and believes that the Twins hold the key for halting the machinations of
the Master. But they had fallen into a trap. So, after the Master gained
the upper hand, he had the Doctor try to fly the TARDIS (the police box
one....not the Master's TARDIS) to the Moon to watch the Earth die. Scott
uses his Author powers to sweep the TARDIS to a distant parallel of Earth,
a world called Terra Prime. A place of magic, knights, and dragons. Also,
a place where things have gotten.....weird (more on that later....) Scott
was able to throw them there, but finds his way blocked. The skeins of
reality have been braced up to incredible levels, and not even an Author
can pass without attracting the attention of the wrath of the Rules (Agents
of Order). They pounce on this Scott Chen, and send him back....naked and
powerless, to "Room 1." They don't want a repeat of what happened to a
fellow Rule who died when the universe he was charged with died (long story....read
episodes 2958 through 8057 for a clearer....but not yet complete....picture).
Brazen Man got around before dying.... Okay, now here's the fun part. Disaster
had befallen Terra. The nation of Ethiopia had hit hard by it, and a rogue
dragonness called Malachi had been able to use her powers to aid were she
could...and organize resources where needed. The government had been thrown
into a shamble, so she had pulled things through for those who were left.
So grateful were the Ethiopians, that they stunned her by begging her to
become their Regent Queen. Malachi soon saw that if she didn't accept,
her efforts would be for naught, and the nation would collapse into anarchy,
destruction, and more death. She became Regent, and went a step further
to enhance her ability to aid her beloved, adopted homeland. She bonded
her life force to the land. This gives her incredible power, but also made
her vulnerable in a special way. If Ethiopia ceases to be a nation-if it
"dies"-then she will die....for real. If she dies, then Ethiopia will cease
to be a nation. She will last as long as the nation lasts.

 See the problem
with the Twins here? The Ethiopians know of their beloved dragon queens
bond, and fear for their leader's life....
