Continuing with my Doctor Who storybook idea I'll be exploring other Indian Epic stories that the Doctor could get himself entangled in. First, I found the Sons of Rama: Luv and Kush - The Invincible Twins and thought it would be a fun story. I could have the two twins and monkey become his companion for a time where they defeat Rama's brother Shatrughna when he attempts to recapture the sacred horse. Mahiravana - A Magician Outwitted is another story I could have a fun time retelling and watching the bad magician be defeated by the Doctor instead of Hanuman. For the third story I found to retell is Dasharatha: The Story of Rama's Father. This story is another variation of Narayan's Ramanana where Rama is exiled. I think it would be interesting to have the Doctor in on his exile and the many encounters they could run in to. Lastly, I really enjoyed reading Abhimanyu - Star Crossed Prince, being Arjuna's son and watching the Doctor try and help him when his battle against Drona without violence and the Doctor having to struggle with it being necessary would be an interesting situation to write about. I think I would make the Doctor's companions all of the main characters of each of the stories and he would travel around and end up coming in, in the middle of the battle or in the middle the climax of the story and he has to figure out how to save everyone.
