Praetorian Hamidon is the same entity as Paragon Hamidon. Paragon Hamidon despaired of ever achieving anything like his original goals in our dimension after becoming agriculture. Having Arachnos and the FP start making synthetic versions of his organelles because they were useful to super beings was the last straw. He used his powers to travel across time and dimensions in order to invade Praetorian Earth in the 1950s... only for Paragon supers to invade and subjugate him in that dimension as well. It's only a matter of time until we turn the abandoned plains of Praetorian North America into vast farms serving up the freshest Hami-Os.

 

Wu Yin's super power in any dimension is the ability to seduce people he wouldn't otherwise be able to.

 

Tielekku believes that the Dream Doctor is the reincarnation of Ermeeth. She's incorrect. Ermeeth's reincarnation is Montague Castanella.

 

General Aarons is suicidal because of his failure to stop Virgil Duray from creating the Sky Raiders. He leaps into melee combat armed only with a handgun in hope that death will end his crushing feelings of guilt.

 

Russel Brandt, the Clockwork King, is suffering from acute lead poisoning. He was never as knowledgeable as he thought he was about robotics or engineering. After his extremely unfortunate run-in with Blue Steel, he rehomed his brain into a brass and glass container and interacts with the world entirely via telepathy and telekinesis. That's a problem because if he were a bit more knowledgeable, he might have realized that a significant amount of brass contains lead (and even arsenic in rare cases!), especially in alloys for industrial use. The lead has been leeching out of the brass container, though the fluid inside, and directly into Russ's grey matter for years, plunging him ever further into psychosis and dementia.

My theory in Praetorian Hamidon is that they’d actually be the father or grandfather of Hamidon Pasamila. The Primal Hamidon appeared after the Rikti War (2002) and in launch content (so about 2004) we run into a woman who knew Hamidon before he created will of the earth and she is apperently not at all elderly, I think she’s even described as a young woman, and there doesn’t seem signs of some May-December Romance.

 

Meanwhile, the Praetorian Hamidon appeared in the 1950s due to an alternate ending to the Korean War where the atomic bombs were dropped on northern Korea and swaths of China (MacArthur was apparently president and the historical MacArthur had wanted to turn a huge swath of Asia into “an irradiated sea of cobalt”. Honestly makes Cole and Hamidon’s crashouts pretty understandable.)

 

So either way you look at it, there’s like a forty year gap between these emergences, so I struggle to imagine it being the exact same guy unless part of Praetoria’s alt history includes “some people were born earlier or later” (which seems unlikely)

Praetorian Infernal is actually T'Keron. It makes so much more sense, provides actual villain motivation and plot prompts while maintaining the thematic role, and the 'oh he's just an evil mirror version' was dumb even when being a generic evil mirror world was Praetoria's whole gimmick. The only thing dumber was Praetorian Infernal staying the same after Going Rogue's revisions.

I read that as T'Karen, imagined him with a short blonde hairdo, a battle cry of "I want to speak to the manager!" and now I can't stop chuckling. 😅
