Unsolved Mysteries Version II

[parthagenon]

I don't really remember what the working theory on that one was.  Actually, this entire list has gotten really unwieldy- one of the things on my woefully long to-do list is to revamp this thread, which is going to take at least two days of work, if I put in all the cool organizational stuff I've been wanting to add.

[Ms Duck]

the working theory on the car and car bombs was Mavra

she knows explosives, and can use them- see BR

the car windshield was darkened

according to dracula, she can operate during the day, just without any of her magical powers

(hence the mundane attacks)

this was the general theory before CHanges, it is debated as to wether it's the same assasin or not

I've been re-reading Dead Beat and got to the scene where Kumori brings one of Marcone's people back to life, when i remembered the Ghost Story spoiler that the other side cheated.. i think resurrecting a killer so he can attempt to kill harry later would be considered cheating not to mention most of those attempts on harrys life where not made until after Dead Beat. The guys name is never mentioned but you never know could be him, his life/soul belonging to Cowl and Kumori now ? or maybe not   

[Ziggelly]

Oh, wow. Kumori never even crossed my mind. Good job for your first post, sir and/or ma'am.

[Arkham8]

Speaking of Kumori, I, and many others, have noted her absence from the events of White Knight, even though Cowl was present.

However, upon reflection maybe she was there the whole time *cough*

Hey y'all,

I've spent about two weeks scouring this forum for every lucid theory I could find (re: ignoring Ms. Duck ;-) jk) and I can't seem to find any good evidence for this: "-Why was Maggie Sr. going to Hell, and how did she escape?*"

Now I reread the entire series over the last 4 days so I admit it could just be escaping me, but I can't find any real evidence about this.

Cheers.

it comes from this quote from Fool moon

“Indeed,” Chauncy agreed. “Your mother was a most direct and willful woman. Her loss was a great sadness to all of us.”

I blinked, startled, and the pencil fell from my fingers. I stared at the demon for a moment. “You… you knew my mother? You knew Margaret Gwendolyn Dresden?”

Chauncy regarded me without expression or emotion. “Many in the underworld were… familiar with her, Harry Blackstone Dresden, though under a different name. Her coming was awaited with great anticipation, but the Dark Prince lost her, in the end.”

I just figured he was kinda hacked off that his ascension ritual got messed up, plus a hefty bruise on the chin.

Cowl was also noted as "moving stiffly", so it could be that Harry permanently invalidated him.

Or maybe Cowl's superiors didn't take well to the fact that Dresden managed to outmaneouver him. Cowl managed to survive several death curses before he attempted the Darkhallow, at least according to himself, so the backlash of energy wasn't outside his ability to handle. (That might depend on the potency of the death curse and the manner in which it was administered, but given that Harry has almost never managed to hurt Cowl in any significant way, it seems very likely that Dresden only indirectly managed to hurt him.)

[Ms Duck]

I just see one of the running themes being empotional relationships between master and apprentice;

Justin -> Harry
Eb -> Harry
Annastasia -> Morgan
Eb -> Maggie
Harry -> Molly

so I would not be surprised if there is a Cowl -> Kumori angst there

[۞†Grey Warden†۞]

What about







Mab -> Ms. Duck

I wish

my love life would be a lot less boring...

THe thing is at the end of changes, he was exceptionally dangerous. HE had no home, no office, no possesions, and forced to give up his daughter. He belonged to the winter queen so forced to stay away from his life, so all he was left with was his power and his enemies he has nothing to loose in attacking.
Powered by:WInter knight mantle, soulfire, and a map of the ways. HE could travel the world quickly and easily, he had the power and might of winter, and the control of soulfire, nothing binding him but the winter Q direct orders, and the winter queen would love for dresden to go on a killing spree.
 MAvra know he has the knowledge of necromancy against the BCV, but he now has the power and control to take her and her kind down hard.
 NIcodemimus while sees harry as a potential assest has fear of him, he knows how to harm him, has defeated a shadow of a denarian while keeping his magic, and he wields soulfire.
 COwl or circle may have had enough of harry interfering.
 MArcone is not likly as so long as the circle and other bad guys was out there, dresden would not remove the man keeping them at bay.
KIncaid specificly told harry that this was the way to kill wizards, and his family have been long time enemies of ebenezor.

One question that I have not seen is this: Is harry completely human?

We know Kincaid is not completely human and he said (to Harry) that he was : "just as human as he is".

At that time it was suggested that Kincaid was 100% Human (just as Harry). But if we look at it differently it would mean that they are both part non-human. If Kincaid was not lying, that would mean that Harry is part non-human. And if so, part what? Sidhe seems the best bet...
