How Harry would do the Dark Hallow in Changes wag
Mbresle:
I don't think it could be done in changes. Not only not by Harry, but not by anyone. Per Bob in CD, the mortality of immortals on Halloween is what would have allowed it to work.

The importance of Halloween is that it's when Immortals become semi mortal, also good for when masks(mantles) are donned and/or removed. The death of an Immortal wasn't required for the DH, but it was convenient to have the Hunt gathering and stirring up the warrior and hunter spirits.
On any other day, if Harry, or someone, were to perform the DH just consuming spirits and claiming their power could possibly work, but may not raise them to immortality. During Changes, Harry would probably have been satisfied by just the accumulation of power, sufficient to smite the Reds and retrieve his daughter...

The key word is "potential power ups". Just like taking a denarian coin would be a potential power up. There are lots of ways to get power - and many of them are very dark.

Well yeah but Jim said that he was looking at 3 possibilities. Not that it "could" happen but he was actually looking at them for Harry to do and chose Winter Knight.
RobReece:
I don't have Grave Peril with me at the moment and it's been a while since I've read it, didn't Harry absorb some of the power of the spirits killed by the Reds? If I remember correctly, it was only temporary, but wouldn't that have been along the lines of a dark hallow? Improperly done as it was only temporary, but still in that type of power assumption?
