Actually, reading your idea on why I might have named the secret society "Stratos" made me remember why I named it that in the first place. It's because Stratos is the Greek word for "army," which, even though I forget what that had to do with their original motivations for wanting the Warehouse, it works perfectly with the new motivation of wanting to destroy Artifacts. Perhaps I could have the society be started by a friend of Alexander's in order to help him protect the world from Artifacts, to be his own personal "army" per se in the war on the Artifacts causing chaos in the world, but then Alexander maybe believed that their way of handling Artifacts was wrong, creating strife between Alexander and the founder of Stratos and causing Stratos to be so hateful of the Warehouse by the time the series takes place.

As for how the Warehouse is portrayed in the series, I sort of wanted it to have, like you said, its own little character arc. At first, it's portrayed as a dangerous place thought of by many of the characters, particularly Steve, Artie, and Myka, to be a place where everyone winds up suffering from the worst possible fate in the end. But then, as the series progresses, the characters, and again especially those three, start to see that, while the Warehouse is still dangerous, it's also the place that feels the most like home for them, especially with all the other characters there to share it with them. Artie begins to feel that way as he starts becoming the father figure-type character he became for the others, especially Claudia, in the original series, Myka starts to feel that way around season two after all the exciting adventures she's had so far working there (And it certainly doesn't hurt that that's also when HG shows up), and Steve starts to feel that way after Claudia starts becoming like a new sister to him as well as after the romantic relationship I have planned for him starts which will show him that happiness can still be found even while working for the Warehouse.

Then, as for how Alexander the Great would be thought of in the series, I feel like that's something that would be touched upon more in the Claudia spin-off than in the original reboot. You make a good point that I should figure out how I want him to be portrayed for that series, though. I think I'll have him set as a more morally grey character to sort of give the audience reason to think that maybe Stratos is right, and also to give Claudia motivation to use her postion as Caretaker to improve the Warehouse from how it has functioned in the past. It's definitely something to think about, and I'll be sure to give it some extra thought if I ever get the chance to actually make both the reboot and the Claudia spin-off into real shows. I really appreciate the help you've given me with this series! You've offered a ton of great suggestions that will definitely help me make this show into the best it can be so that hopefully I'll be able to get it made one day! If you have any other advice either on the bible or the script, let me know. I really appreciate the help and will definitely be giving you credit for the ideas you've given me should I be able to make this a real thing!
