The Dresden Files > DF Reference Collection
mythological figures we'd like to see
Second Aristh:
A bit more of the Greek pantheon (the Furies would be nice assassins for Zeus ;D )
The Rakshasas that keep getting mentioned!!
How about Puck? ([WAG] he should be a wyldfae that changes loyalties depending on his master; Puck=Jack Frost if he's Winter or Puck=Robin Goodfellow if he's Summer [/WAG] )

Apollo has Sun, Light, intellect, prophecy, and truth among others. Primarily my exposure to Apollo has been as a god of wisdom enlightenment and intellect. The Greek god of of war was Ares. If he has appeared as one of the immortals I would bet he got rolled into Odin, but I don't see the Erlking as a fit at all.
Socratov:
oeh! I thought of a funny one: The Morrigan, 3 for the price of 1 8)
(and they are rumored to battle Medb a.k.a. Maeve, so the way is clear)
GrandPanjandrum:
Themis...the Goddess of Justice. She's the chick with the sword and the scales wearing a blindfold. Considering there are statues of her in just about every government building, every law office, and topping stationary everywhere, and she is recognized as well as known throughout the world...she'd be S-T-R-O-N-G. She'd, also, be merciless.
Electric MacButters:

Tyr, Freya, Heimdall Prometheus.
--- End quote ---
Personally, I'm pretty sure Heimdall has been in almost every book. He was/is the watcher, guardian of the bifrost bridge and first line of defense against the invasion of Asgard (and there is a nagging thought in the back of my head that he was only supposed to speak when sounding a warning, but I may well be wrong). Now who do we know that rarely speaks, has preternatural healing, jokes with Odin, and was called 'the observer' by his enemies? ;D
I suspect Loki is currently chained in the depths of demonreach; and that he is an outsider who teamed up with Odin to try and pull a long con to bring down the gates (he who walks beside, maybe?)
