[Suzerain of Sheol]

I've truly never heard that in the plethora of English courses I've taken.

And, really, the bottom line for me is: if something makes for effective writing, do it. If a rule is holding you back, ignore it. Really, it's called "creative" writing for a reason. Shackling yourself into archaic forms is no good if its repressing your ability to creatively express yourself.

(Do note the impersonal "you" in that paragraph. :D)
