I'd prefer a more ethically neutral archetype. The Bad Influence could be a negative version of some more typically positive archetype, like the Mentor. Guides little kids on a path, just in this case one that's looked down on by society.
The channels all seem too powerful, but that's just my feeling. I haven't compred them with other archetypes or anything.
Surely there must be more historical avatars than just two current rock stars. What about older musicians (consider 1950s parental backlash against early rock and roll)? What about the beatniks, especiallly Burroughs? Macchiavelli, taking a more 'evil advisor to the king' sort of deal?
