--- Quote from: Arkham8 on March 07, 2011, 01:56:54 PM ---How does a Dragon, a force of nature, have a kid? I mean, Shagnasty was neither male or female and his power level isn't anywhere near Ferro's or Mab's. Do these super-powerful beings get pregged in the traditional sense? Or do they just will an offspring into existence?

We've seen Mab do fun stuff with Harry, so maybe yes. Also, we've seen Ferro look human, so presumably he could do something with a female mortal. Take a look at Zeus - he supposedly had children with mortal women after appearing to them as a white bull/Satyr/golden rain/swan

--- End quote ---
I believe that Eb says that Drakul is a scion - i.e half human. Thus, I think Drakul could be a half-Dragon, making Dracula a quarter-Dragon?
Incidentally, I'm still holding out hope for a theory of mine where Kincaid and Drakul both the same type of scion - maybe even brothers. The idea is that like changelings, they have the ability to choose to become like their mortal parent or like their supernatural parent. Drakul chose, and that's why he's so powerful. Kincaid hasn't chosen yet, and so that's why he is so touchy about fulling his contract obligations and "I am as human as you" questions. It's a way of clinging to his human side.
Of course, I hope this means that at some point in the series Kincaid will be forced to make the choice, and suddenly Harry will have a Drakul-level ally fighting alongside of him (or against him if he pisses him off)....
Arkham8:
One thing I noticed concerning Kincaid's heritage was Harry's view of him with the Sight. A giant demon with a dead body attached that looked like Kincaid's human form.
Is this indicative of Kincaid's sacrifice of what humanity he has? Probably not, because he still seems very much human and he does care of Murphy, Ivy, and (maybe) Harry, due to Ivy.
Maybe the demon in the Sight is his old employer Drakul, metaphorically holding Kincaid, much like viewing Harry with the Sight shows HWWB.
Maybe the Demon is metaphorical.
And Maybe it's his battle shape-shifting form, a la Dante from DmC :P. (Because he's quickly becoming an expy of Dante in my mind)

Actual its not a dead body that looks like Kincaid attached to the demon form it is:
--- Quote ---For just a second I saw something standing there. Something enormous, malformed, something silent and merciless and deadly. It had to crouch to keep from brushing the ceiling with the horns curling away from its head, and batlike wings spread from its shoulders to fall around it and behind it, to drag along the floor, and I thought I saw some kind of hideous double image lurking behind it like the corpse-specter of Death himself.

And many of us believe that the corpse specter of death is really Mavra veiled and taking pictures that Harry just happened to see with his sight when he say Kincaid.

Ahhh thanks for clarifying. BR is one of the few books I don't re-read on a regular basis. That and FM.
