Watsonian McAnally: the son of the chief physician.

<< < (3/13) > >>

Lash Dresden:
Mac is able to call Harry for help, also (Heorot).  If Mac has been around for millenia, it seems he's likely to know who took Elizabeth (was that her name?), and how dangerous it would be for Harry to face the Grendelkin (although assuming he knew all that, it's likely he knew Sigrun would be involved so Harry wouldn't be going in alone).  Involving himself as he did there (by getting Harry involved) seems sort of non-neutral to me.

(Just tossing this out there - I don't have an opinion on Mac either way.)

No, it was just an example I thought up.

So is the Our World quote non-canonical, then? It says that he arrived only a few years before Harry.

I've never bothered with any of the RPG stuff.  I don't hold any of it as canon.  It's too easy to dismiss as flawed.

Honestly, from what I've seen the RPG couches most of its speculation as clearly speculation.  I don't recall any statements they try to pass off as fact that aren't detailed in the text.  If anything, they err on the other end of the spectrum and hedge their bets.

Luckily in this instance Harry says it himself in DB as also sourced somewhere up there  :P
