Deirdre's Coin [Possible Spoilers]
Tami Seven:
Did we ever find out the name of Deirdre's Fallen? Her angel in the coin? If not, I'd like someone to ask JB about it if they get ever the chance.
I do have a suggestion for a name, "Urumiel" taken from the name of this sword, the Urumi, which resembled her hair:

That would be a cool name. More important, who is Nick going to either hand off the coin to or trick into taking it up?

Considering his 'emotional attachment' to it, I would be surprised if he passed it off at all, or at least not so quickly. Once passed off, there is a good chance it would eventually wind up in the church or buried under some Wizard's sub-basement.
There are 30 coins, plenty for Nick to choose from.

But Nick *doesn't* have the others to choose from for elevating new henchmen. Tessa and Rosanna made off with the bag containing most of the loose ones at the end of Small Favour, so Nic had to resort to retrieving Ursiel and Lasciel to rebuild his cadre from Death Masks. Unless he went to extraordinary lengths to rescue them in the few minutes the escape from Hades took, those two coins are lost to him again for the long term. Even if Saluriel (Cassius' Fallen) and most of the others in Church custody get busted out soon, Nic is a pariah with a price on his head - rolling with Tessa and Imariel for the next few decades is going to look a lot better to most of them.
Deirdre's Fallen might be the only one willing to take Nic's calls at this point.
I really do want to see some silver buried under a wizard's creepy prison-fortress island at some point, though.

I hadn't considered this before. You know the events of the end of Skin Game quickly spread amongst the fallen. They (Nic and Anduriel) must have lost some serious credibility.
