My first nickname(?) [or something like that]

Imagine a person, tall, lean and feline, high-shouldered, with a brow like Shakespeare and a face like Satan, ... one giant intellect, with all the resources of science past and present ... Imagine that awful being, and you have a mental picture of Dr. Fu-Manchu, the yellow peril incarnate in one man. –The Insidious Dr. Fu Manchu

"Fu Manchu" was a title of honor, which meant "the Warlike Manchu." Manchu's are people who originated in Manchuria, who quickly rises to become head of that dreaded secret society.
