Interesting idea.  I tend to run my game "pure" (it's just such a damn-fine
universe) but crossovers are certainly possible.  As for using Demoreans
(big TimeMaster fan, by the way), you've inspired me only insofar as it
would be a great way to conclude a long-running campaign.  Mainly because
one of the players in my group was the CM for a TimeMaster campaign since
the game was released back in the mid-eighties (we actually JUST completed
TimeStorm last year).  It would really throw things off balance if suddenly
the posse comes upon a Demorean basecamp in Salt Lake City...  I know the
former CM would wet his pants!!!

Let me know if you actually assemble an adventure using these four-armed,
continuum twisting beasties...  :)
