Actually, what about Nagas of LA Patala taking over Agartha? The nagas are subterranean, cold-blooded, inhuman amphibians that live for centuries. If ALL the statues and ALL the corpses have been reanimated and then destroyed by the Agarthan worshippers, how could the humans now that original Agarthans weren't nagas? Even the magic paths come pretty close, nagas and descendants of Ktonian Necromancers cover all the paths original Agartha had access to.

EARLY Jewish tribes. Pre-Egyptian slavery, I think. Jumping from there to ghettoes is quite a leap, and even worse, it'd basically be Jews ruled over by the evil blood-thirsty Germans with plans for taking over the world. I don't usually care for political correctness if the idea works, but I don't think this is a good idea.

It'd depend a lot on implementation. It could be that I'm just paranoid and it'd work very well, with some Golem references thrown in the mix and incorporating the fluff in the Gath's tribes' descriptions (the humanbred tribe in/near Abysia, sibyl tribe near/in Arcoscephale, iron-working tribe in/near Man etc etc).
