WOJ: Hexenwufl solved
Scug:
a quick note about cowl. We know that he used/uses necromancy not only from the dark stain harry feels, but because he was there at the darkhallow. remember that u had to be protected by necromancy magic in order to get close. Ramirez got there without using necromancy because he was riding Sue, which probably 'trailed' a huge necromancy wake, like a boat in the water. Its plausable that Cowl sneaked into the gathering, but he would have to be really really close to the other zombies. Maybe in the middle of a huge crowd of zombies would give him enough protection. But most likely not. Its most likely that he had his own 'field' of necro energy surrounding him.
Apollishar:
Or, you know, Cowl simply absorbed/created necromantic energy, or used it in a metyhod similar to what Kumori did to prolong that one guy's life. It's not simply a matter of "did he raise zombies or not".
Remember, Harry channeled a massive amount of earth energy in Changes, by tapping into a ley line. Cowl could've simply channeled through a necromantic leyline, and called it a day. Or he could've eaten some shades.
Just saying, its difficult to just automatically assume he used some necromancy
Ms Duck:
the differnce is that Harry and Ramirez would ahve been killed the minute they enterred the darkhallow radius if they had not had a conection with Sue. Ergo, at least one of the zombies/ spectres on that field was cowl's and kumoris.
Apollishar:
Unless he tapped it and held the latent energy within himself, much like Harry held in a lot of ambient magic in SmF
