"He" had once been apprenticed to the great wizard Merlin
and due to a botch up in a alchemy experiment he now had the lifespan of a dragon but because nature abhors a human anomaly
Caliban found himself being hurled forwards and backwards in time
every once in a while.
He'd briefly helped Dr Watson solved a few mysteries after Sherlock Holmes had vanished after battling
whilst figting Moriarty,that dastardly arch criminal
near a waterfall.
From that encounter Caliban had picked up the surname Holmes
and after the next time displacement this two bit detective had found himself in 1950s Ohio,where he made ends meet by using cameras to spy on cheating wives and husbands
So there Caliban Holmes was in his seedy Akron Ohio office
wondering how he was going to pay the landlord the next months rent
when SHE came in
a anthro dragoness in a rich golden gown
at a time when America was still in the grips of the Communist scare.
Caliban couldn't afford a secretary so the anthro dragoness
who was a fairly famous Hollywood special effects actress in B movies
asked for his help.
Someone was trying to extort money out of her
and her boss Stan Winslow
needed her name cleared before the release of his next B movie
"Were Reptile Woman From Planet 9"
