Just curious. Some of not been seen for a while. Expect Mavra and Raiths. All villians are welcomed.

Definitely the Wraiths, Im guessing both. They have too much interest in Chicago not to show up.  I tend to think  Black Court rep will show, but I kind of hope we get to meet somebody new for that. 

Beyond that Im hoping to see the Queens and Ladies, The Archive, Vadderung, Ferro and Drakul.  They could show being an Accords matter, but it's a toss up if they want to get involved.  It's rumored to be a fairly bloody book, so I expect some heavy hitters to be present. 




I expect the Senior Council, so I expect Cristos and Langtry.   Are they villains? :P

OHGODYESPLEASE!!!

Darth Wannabe rolling up as a Fomor Servitor, or even better as the "Semi-immortal shapeshifting guru" that was mentioned as an Independant Signatory.  I'd love it if Darth was something super-powerful that was just trolling Dresden.

I doubt Mavra will be there. Someone put a question about her into, I think it was, the last AMA. Jim said her story has a planned endpoint, but implied her appearance in Mirror Mirror would be her next.

I wouldn't call Lara Raith exactly a villain...   She is more of a predator than a villain in my opinion..

Laura Raith is definately a villain. Just because she's used Harry as her catspaw doesn't mean that they're friends or anything.

The Raiths, for certain. I doubt Cowl, as he's due to show up in Mirror Mirror per WOJ, and I don't think that Mavra would show. The Black Court is better off hiding and shoring up their defenses when the rest of the world powers appear.

And I personally think that Kumori died back in Dead Beat.

I think that there is WOJ that suggests differently about Kumori.

Oo, I'd love to hear it! I haven't encountered that bit about Kumori.

Wouldn't the Eebs have died along with the rest of the rampires?

Is there a WOJ on that? I dunno, it just kind of pulls the teeth on the bloodline curse if everyone lives if they're on the other side. And because Jim states in book one that red court vampires live more on the other side than on Earth, I don't think that the bloodline curse could have successfully wiped them all out if that was the case. More like, just set them back to the Black Court level of things.

That post about the Eebs is not definitive, it simply said at the time of the curse they were in a high security location in the never never, it never actually said they survived. I am betting the curse did hit them, but it is possible using the malleability of the never never, and the intervention of someone powerful, they could have survived the curse, but they would be deeply dependent, and have lost most of their independence.

From everything except their hosts.  I suppose the question we might ask is would the Earl King allow the destruction of the last two members of another supernatural species?  Then again, if he viewed them as parasites; as Nicodemus did, the Earl King might have been happy to eliminate the Eebs.  The only other way they could have survived is if an nemfected member of the Goblin Court freed them.  I remember a long time ago someone suggested Rafferout; the goblin who seemed to be a close adviser to the Earl King, as a good choice for being a nemfected agent.
Those are my principles, and if you don't like them... well, I have others.
