Not sure about most of the theories but the tidbits that you dug up to support the theories include some very interesting stuff.
IMO, Merlin had help from a higher power when he warded Demonreach so that could easily explain Odin's relationship to the Well (he taught Merlin how to build the wards or he helped him to do so).

I still think Mother Winter was the enforcer who put most of big bads in there (I suspect the naagloshii was Merlin, maybe some of the weaker ones as well).

--- Quote ---Is Kringle Fae?
Is Kringle Fae? His mantle, yes, is part of the Winter Court. Which does not necessarily mean that he himself is Fae as much as the fact that his mantle is. While he’s there, he’s got to pay deference to Mab. If Mab gives him a command, he has to obey it. Mab’s too smart to throw him many commands, it’s much smarter to just let him do his thing. Because it’s this mysterious Christmas-y stuff anyway, cheer and goodwill, whatever. She supposes it’s good to have somebody like that for PR. That at times could be useful. It’s like, oh, so, Winter Court, whole season of death, evil, but then it’s like, yeah, Christmas! Oh, wow, yeah, you’re right. It’s like the schools are trying to buy the tobacco company. **unintelligible** It’s something of the same thing. And besides which, if she doesn’t give him a bunch of orders and stuff, then basically, when she does go to him and say, “I need to know something”, that really, what can you do, this is our game of give-and-take. So, in a way, it’s not really a subservient relationship, Mab’s too smart for it to be that.

Here you go. I think.
Locnil:
Thanks. :D
Tami Seven:
My question is, what is Odin? He's supposed to be a god, wouldn't taking on a mantle of a fae be a downgrade for him? What does it mean to be a god in the DV? (lower case god, not the upper case one).
Also, if Santa is a mantle, then anyone, theoretically, can become Santa? (like those Tim Allen type movies.)
If Butters wasn't Jewish he'd make an interesting Santa (assuming Odin get's tired of the role). Andi would make an interesting Mrs. Claus.
