polkaneverdies:
All changelings are scions
Not all scions are changelings.
Eb certainly implied that he came from something a bit more exotic than a simple fairy.
I believe that is why the correction was made.
knnn:
I had this wonderful theory where Kincaid and Drakul were brothers, and the only difference was that Drakul had made his Choice, while Kincaid was still trying to hold on to his human half (hence his fussyness when being challenged about his humanity). Also, it would make for an amazing scene when Kincaid finally makes his choice, and Harry suddenly has a world-cracking, Drakul-power-level ally at his side. "behold as I unleash the HELLHOUND" 8)
Unfortunately, this was shot down in a WoJ where he states that Kincaid already made his choice centuries ago. :'(
(....Is thinking about writing alternate-timeline fan-fiction where this theory is true).

--- Quote from: Oirthir on March 20, 2012, 09:13:09 PM ---I know it's probably soft, any theory based on any fact other than a WOJ or the word given in text from a being who is known to be unable to lie is subject to colouration as it is seen and heard through the eyes and ears of one Harry Dresden. Conversations held with other characters may similarly contain obfuscation and misdirection if not outright lies.
I take it that we read that passage entirely differently:
This I took to mean that everything before Harry called Kincaid a liar to be false, Kincaid does not deny the lie, he redirects. When he says he's just as human as Dresden is, I take this to be the only true statement he makes in the conversation, if for no other reason than that is the way I'd do it for dramatic flair – it makes for good storytelling (plus, Kincaid is a prick, I could see him saying something like this just to say “I told you so” later). If I’m right about Kincaid's statements in Blood Rights, then: if Kincaid is a scion (which defines him as not fully human) Harry must in turn have something unnatural in his bloodline. Unless I have evidence either of Harry's family tree or a WOJ saying I'm wrong, then 2 of four possible cases for this argument are equal.
1.) Harry and Kincaid are both not fully Human {x}
2.) Harry is fully human and Kincaid is not {x}
3.) Both Harry and Kincaid are fully human
4.) Harry is not fully human, but Kincaid is
--- End quote ---
hmmmm Do we know that wizards are "fully human"? Don't the vamps consider them aberations? Maybe Harry is not "fully human" since he is a wizard.

Council calls vanilla humans mortals too
Arjan:
Well biologically speaking.....
Anyone who can breed with humans and get fertile offspring is a human ;D
