Dark influences on Harry

I would find it extremely likely.

Hm...it occurs to me that in Grave Peril, Harry actually explicitly bound Kravos's ghost to his own will, forcing Kravos to only be able to go after Harry rather than any other mortal. That's probably a violation of the 4th law, and violations of the laws of magic, even with good intentions, probably count as dark influences.

Do you mean 5th law since it was Kravos's ghost and not a mortal. I'm really fuzzy on the 5th law and why what Harry did in GP doesn't count

There isa difference between a ghost and a shade. A ghost does not have a soul and is fair game :D

Actually I was thinking the 4th law, the prohibition against enthrallment. Apparently even summoning Toot comes close to breaking that one, and Toot doesn't have a soul either. When Victor Sells summons and binds a demon, according to Harry and Morgan, that also breaks the 4th law. Demons and fey don't have souls, but it isn't ok to bind them to your will, so I assume the same goes for ghosts. I could be wrong, though.
...Oh, and 100 posts!...it only took me 3 months or so :/
