So once again, Jean has gotten drunk and stolen the tardis from Dr. Who (seriously, you'd think that he would stop visiting PitW universe after the last two times I had Jean steal the tardis in these threads.) This time however, she brought Butch along because butch wanted to meet those hound of god werewolves that her mom was descended from.
The good news is that Butch inadvertently helped her ancestors convert all the pagan werewolves to Christianity, which resulted in the church never turning against weres, so they exist openly.
The bad news is that the church used the weres to crush the protestant reformation, thus meaning that the enlightenment never happened. So monarchy is still the name of the political game and science has been held back.
So they return to the present to find that The kingdom of America has become a medieval dream.I encourage Kris, as a gurps fan, to imagine this timeline as being similar to the banestorm universe, in that the tech level isn't purely medieval, they have germ theory and moveable type printing presses for example. but some technology, like gun powder is being suppressed by nobles and the church.
how do the gang fit into this strange new world
do they try to go back and undo Butch's actions?
