Suggested: The page currently says that Wonse and Throat are original characters. I think it's fairly clear that Throat will be Cut-Me-Own-Throat Dibbler, and Wonse will be Lupine Wonse from Guards! Guards!.
- I don't know how clear that is when they're both female and other characters are similarly transformed. Presumably they fill similar roles, but changing sex would make them and others fairly original. I'd have to see the finished product (but I'm not keen on modernised Shakespeare, either). --Old Dickens (talk) 17:38, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
