Warden Security File
Harry Dresden
Harry Dresden has shown signs of irrationality, volatility and violent tendencies. His actions include murder, torture, mass destruction of property, and multiple uses of black magic. He has shown pathological need to protect the "innocent" regardless of consequence. Treat with extreme caution. He is a fanatic in his willingness to further what he sees as morally right. Dresden showed psychotic rage when ghouls murdered two warden trainees. Dresden tortured one of the Ghouls to death. He agreed to protect Donald Morgan from the White Council even at risk of his own death despite their personal animosity. He single handedly began the war with the Red Court in vengeance for infecting his lover. He engaged the Red King and all of his nobility in order to rescue a client's child. In order to gain the necessary resources for this confrontation he agreed to be Winter Knight. He then activated a bloodline death curse that eradicated the entire Red Court in order to rescue the child


Dresden has been deemed at risk for mental manipulation from multiple sources. Dresden is currently under the influence of the Winter Mantle.  He has had significant exposure to various members of the White Court and is believed to have been in a sexual relationship with the son of Lord Raith (Thomas Raith). It is believed that the White God via a former Knight of the Cross (Michael Carpenter) purged Dresden of all psychic manipulation at one point leading to the end of Dresden's personal relationship with Thomas Raith. Since this purge, Dresden has also claimed sanctum over the island of Demonreach. It is unknown what this link has done to him psychologically or if he has attempted to utilize the full power of the island's well. Dresden was shown to be one of only a few Wardens to not have been affected by Samuel Peabody's attack on the Council. After the execution of Peabody Dresden was subsequently inspected for any signs of mental manipulation and was deemed unaffected (and surprisingly resistant to tampering for someone his age). Upon his return from the Never Never as Knight he was inspected by the Gatekeeper and deemed to be currently resisting manipulation of the mantle of Winter Knight

If Dresden believes that he is morally correct he will not relent under any circumstances. It is extremely unlikely that he can be reasoned or bargained with. Threats against his person, life, or freedom are completely counterproductive. He has demonstrated a tendency to become even more motivated to fight when pressured to relent. He has shown a continuous contempt of power and authority. In any situation where Dresden feels that the Council is in opposition to his morality he will fight against the council in any means necessary. If any situation such as this were to arise the best approach would be to disable him as quickly as possible

Tactical abilities

• Dresden rates as one of the most powerful Wardens alive. Given his current status as Winter Knight his current level of strength and skill is unknown.His skills have grown as a result of Mab's personal training
• His favored weapons are wind, raw force, fire, and ice
• Dresden is known to have access to soul fire
• He has shown generalized talents in tracking spells, Thaumaturgy, Ectomancy, and Necromancy, and combat magic
• He utilizes a sophisticated shield focus known to be a significant energy drain
• Dresden possesses at least ten rings used to trap and release potential energy
• He has developed a shield crystal that will explode upon failure. The blast range is several hundred meters
• He has shown to have developed unusual gifts with language that are likely the result of magic. Dresden can converse in Ghoul and ancient Etruscan

Mother: Margaret Gwendolyn "le Fay" Dresden [Wizard](deceased)
Father: Malcolm Dresden [Mortal] (Deceased)

Known Associates

Winter Queen Mab
Dresden has shown a very strange relationship with Mab. It is extremely unusual that any mortal would have direct contact with Mab as frequently as Dresden had prior to his becoming Winter Knight. Dresden had been contracted to act as her human emissary/ personal investigator on at least two occasions. Their relationship has proven extremely durable in that Dresden led a strike force on behalf of Summer against Arctis Tor and Mab failed to retaliate in customary Winter fashion. It is known that prior to his acceptance of the Mantle of Winter Knight Mab lobbied him to take the position for several years

Winter Lady Molly Carpenter
Daughter of the former Knight of the Cross. Subsequently developed magical talent and psychically manipulated mortals violating the third law of magic. Dresden defended her at trial and agreed to take the Doom of Damocles with her in exchange for a stay of her execution. Her known skills are mental manipulation and general illusionary magic. After Dresden's faked death she is presumed to have gone with him to the Winter Court where she continued her training. Wardens were unable to locate her subsequent to Dresden's disappearance. Upon the death of Maeve, Carpenter became the new Winter Lady. Her current abilities and stability are unknown

The Leanansidhe
Named godmother to Harry Dresden by Margaret Dresden. Specifics of Sidhe bargain are unknown. Since being named his godmother she has amassed a considerable amount of power which in most estimates has made her the third most powerful member of the Winter court after the Mother and Queen Mab. She is known to have accompanied Dresden's strike force to Chichén Itzá

Genius Loci of Island in Lake Michigan
File classified. Dresden is currently located on this island (Demonreach) where he initiated a Sanctum invocation. Do not attempt to travel to this island without the express permission of Dresden and under the authority of the Senior Council. Do not confront Dresden here

The Archive (aka “Ivy”)
The Archive is one of the most powerful mortal beings in existence. Previous estimates of her tactical ability as comparable to a winter/summer lady were shown to be inadequate. She was able to single handedly engage an estimated half-dozen of the strongest Denarians in combat without access to outside magic. She has shown a strong emotional attachment to Dresden. She has previously violated her mandate to protect the Archive at all cost by breaking a veil to defend Dresden from Denarian attack. Given her previous violation of this mandate there is great cause for concern that the current Archive may take full control of her power at some point. She represents a potential deity-level threat.

Jared Kincaid (aka Hellhound)
Mercenary with very high level of combat efficiency. Has worked with Dresden previously and is currently employed as the full time bodyguard of the Archive. He shows no overt emotional attachment to Dresden however he has been shown to provide unwavering loyalty to anyone to whom he is employed.

Knight of the Cross (Sanya)
Along with two previous Knights he has worked with Dresden on numerous occasions and can be reliably predicted to help Dresden under most circumstances.

Archangel Uriel
Has appeared before the knights and various members of the Church of the White God to insure that Dresden keeps both Amoracchius and Fidelacchius. It is the first time in recorded history that a wizard has been granted guardianship of two swords. It is also presumed that Uriel granted Dresden the use of Soul Fire

Lord Raith
Current Monarch of the White Court. Dresden has aided in stabilizing his regime on at least two occasions. Lord Raith was known to have a relationship with Dresden’s mother. Lord Raith has granted considerable access and resources to Dresden.  It is believed that their relationship has influenced White Court policy towards neutrality in the conflict between the White Council and Red Court

Thomas Raith
Previously out of favor with the White Court it is believed that Thomas Raith has used his psychic abilities to instigate a sexual relationship with Dresden in order to regain favor with the White Court. Raith and Dresden lived together for over a year in Dresden’s apartment before the two separated. Confirmation from Chicago police informant that the two were in a sexual relationship that has since supposedly ended. The status of their relationship is currently unknown however Raith seems to be Dresden's main point of contact within the White Court.

Ebenezer McCoy
Volunteered to mentor Dresden after he murdered his previous mentor. Previously trained Dresden’s mother. Has shown an overt emotional attachment to Dresden as evidenced by


Carlos Ramirez
West Coast Regional Commander-Wardens, United States. The two have shown a strong friendship. He is perhaps Dresden’s closest friend within the Wardens.

Mouse Dresden
Dresden’s Foo Dog. It is unknown how the creature came into Dresden’s possession. It is a formidable and intelligent creature that will show unwavering loyalty to Dresden. Given his lack of proximity to a temple it is likely that much of the creature’s power is diminished however this has not been verified

Jon Marcone
Head organized criminal activities within the Chicago area. Has worked with Dresden on a number of occasions. Assisted Dresden in stopping an attempted coup against Lord Raith leading to his becoming a free holding lord under the Unseelie Accords. He is the first wholly mortal free holding lord in history under the Accords. Has global contacts with mortal authorities, mortal criminal organizations as well as various magical organizations

“Paranet”
Dresden is founder of a national organization of humans with below-council magical abilities. He has advocated incorporating the paranet into the White Council as an intelligence gathering apparatus for aid in locating wizard-level abilities in humans. Currently there are several hundred estimated members

Bright Future Society
A group of low level magical talents and mortals working to protect the city of Chicago in Dresden's absence. A large number of Dresden's previous allies are known members (werewolves, paranet members, mortals). The organization has successfully defended against multiple incursions into the city by the Fomor
