Yes Nicodemus mentioned it "There are rumors that a certain Warden has been flinging Hellfire at his foes." [Small Favor, 242]. Though given the source it is entirely possible that no one in the counsel would have this information, at least if they are actually loyal to the counsel.
--- Quote from: heyurtthere on July 18, 2010, 02:18:08 AM ---Report of multiple sorcerer confrontation (Age 30)
• Appointed Regional Warden Commander by Captain Anastasia Luccio
• Initiated multi-warden combat with Class 1 Sorcerers (Necromancers)
o Grevane (deceased)
o Capriocorpus (deceased)
o Cowl (Reported at large by Dresden)
• All Wardens present except Dresden and Ramirez were disabled or killed
• Initiated Necromansic animation of 65 million year old T-Rex (Sue) and
used zombie to kill Necromancers and disrupt “Darkhallow” ritual.
--- End quote ---
Maybe a mention that some time during these events he gained/started a quarrel of some kind through unknown means with the Erlking.
--- Quote from: heyurtthere on July 18, 2010, 02:18:08 AM ---Notice of confrontation with magical being (Age 32)
• Warden training camp attaqcked by Ghouls
o 2 trainees were kidnapped and killed
o Dresden shows conversational skill in Ghoul language
o Upon death of trainees Dresden demonstrates unstable emotional state
Extreme torture of Ghoul as method of execution
--- End quote ---
I feel like there was a mention in White Night that since that event Ghouls haven't attacked Wizards as often or something like that and this might be reflected in the report.
--- Quote from: heyurtthere on July 18, 2010, 02:18:08 AM ---Report of exposure to psychic manipulation (Age 33)
• Queen Mab removed all knowledge and memory of fire magic from Dresden's conscious mind
o Spell reversed by Knight of the Cross (Michael Carpenter)
o Shortly after this incident Dresden lost almost all contact with Thomas Raith.
--- End quote ---
Would the counsel have this information? How would they have gotten it? It's unlikely that Harry told them and as far as I can remember he never told anyone who actually did the manipulation.
--- Quote from: heyurtthere on July 18, 2010, 02:18:08 AM ---Official notification to Council that Dresden was harboring fugitive Warden (Age 35)
• Negotiated peaceful transfer of prisoner to senior council
• Assignation attempt on Senior Council Members
o While negotiating transfer of Donald Morgan Senior Council members were attacked
by a large army of beings from the never never as well as a Naagloshii.
--- End quote ---
Should there be mention that Dresden was able to survive, at least for a time, direct and single combat with the Naagloshii prior to Listens to Wind's arrival? Maybe another mention of the assessments of his skills being inadequate.

Nicodemus was still trying to recruit Harry here. It could be he just threatened to start the rumour here. His main purpose was to spread distrust between Harry and his friends to isolate him and so to make him an easier target for Lasciel's shadow.

Both Listen to Wind and Ebenezar are friendly to Harry. They might not even tell that much about it to other wizards. They are wizards after all.
AxGrinder:
You should have an update including the fairy initiation ceremony.

I do agree that they may not have told the counsel of the fight or at least not the details of it, but you would think this is the sort of thing the wardens would want to know about, I mean this possibly dark wizard time-bomb runs off in the middle of an all out assault on three members of the senior counsel and then when Listens to Wind is found later after having gone to find him they find Harry out cold with injuries and Listen to Wind has a broken arm. You'd think some one would have asked what happened.

Might have asked and got some vague or cryptic answer. Wizards are terrible in sharing information. The number of times Harry should have told things to his friends and did not. Ebenezar is even worse. Remember Harry's reaction when Molly in changes explained about the speaking stone. Thomas and the donut in smal Favor.
It is not just Harry and Eb. They are all like that. That makes it so difficult to tell what the council knows about Harry. Each fact or each lie (or combination of those) can have a different spreading among the wizards of the white council.
