Sorry, I meant that as a joke/silly theory. The joke would have been that Cowl was a blampire or something similar and acting as his own walking vessel of necromantic energy. This theory doesn't actually work because Cowl draws on life magic just like Harry, and if he were a blampire he couldn't do that.

which is why quacky folks sepculate he is a deep one/ fomor. They had notable wizards in lovecraft, and can often pass for humans.

Phariah:
well i have always thought that the 3 Kemmlerites all specialized in differing areas of Necro magic. Grevane animation of zombies and physical dead, CT mind magic/ spirits/ ghosts, Cowl i am thinking pure Necro magic/ Black magic to power himself ( sort of like the necro magic EBob released into Dresden ). i mean Kumori was never drumming anything and never really used magic much. suppose he concentrated necro magic around her to act as his necro shield to get through the area.

Harry senses a taint when they first met, than when Cowl escapes by the book store Harry senses an increase in dark magic. that was making a gateway. suppose his specialty was summonings like that of demons and Outsiders?

I thought Gard's description of Fomor magic in "Even Hand" made it sound quite unlike human magic, though; much more chaotic, and not something Harry would likely mistake for such.

Yeah I think there's strong odds that he's fomor, or more specifically, a human with heavy Fomor modifications -- he draws on magic that's definitely human, BUT we keep seeing mentions of "mildew" and similar things around his magic, and he keeps impressing Harry as human-but-not-quite-human.
