Famous Public Domain Characters in the Timelines

The story, Dracula and the Crusader, in the eBook, Timelines, used the character, Dracula created by Brams Stoker in 1897. Dracula and the Crusader  is set in the 1812 Russian campaign of the historical figure Napoleon Bonaparte. This was the first Timelines Series story to contain an existing public domain character. The story retained the original concept of the character and simply added a backstory for the time period of 1812.

The story, The Curse of the Mauve Flamingos mentioned historical figures, Van Gogh and El Greco.

The eBook, Universes I, the story, Haddo and the Rise of the Ghouls, used characters from the book, Fantomas, published in 1911 by Marcel Allain and Pierre Souvestre. It also used the character Oliver Haddo from the book, The Magician, by W. Somerset Maugham published in 1908. Haddo and the Rise of the Ghouls also use the legendary characters the Merry Men.

The two stories, Dracula and the Crusader and Haddo and the Rise of the Ghouls also share a new character introduced in the Timelines Series who is simply referred to as a collector of relics. This mysterious figure is still an open question in the Evan Louis French Canon. Who is he? Why is he connected to these existing characters? What is his intentions?
