By popular(ish) demand, I give you: Moriarty!

It was brought to my attention that I did not devise a House counterpart for Professor Moriarty, the arch enemy of Holmes, who "kills" Holmes at Reichenbech.

A grievous error.

However, when considering the problem of Moriarty, one must keep in mind that House is a TV show. There are seasons, and each season has its overall arc. Which means there's pretty much a new arch enemy for each season.

So House's Moriarty could be Vogler, could be Tritter, could even be another side of House's twisted psyche.

Or, hey, he could just be the gunman who shoots House in No Reason, unnamed throughout the episode, but revealed in the credits to be named--you guessed it--Moriarty.

But if he's manning the guns, wouldn't he be Moran?
