Yeah, but didn't you have to be a prince and marry a special princess and pass fire between the two of you during the ceremony? Then and only then could you wield it... Oh yeah, you had to stick your hand in lava to retrieve it.. It's been years since I saw the movie..

IIRC, Bob told Harry something to the effect that you could kill an immortal (Maeve in that specific case) and mulch the corpse, and all you'd do (except on Halloween) would be to delay her return.
So suppose someone wanted to keep an immortal, say Mab for an example, down. Assuming he managed to kill her in the first place, you could mulch the corpse, then put a tracer spell on the remains, or otherwise attach some kind of magic to tell you what the mantle was doing, and when it starts to bring her back...mulch her again before she can recover. Or things along those lines. If you really had it in for her, you could even make sure each successive death was a whole new agony, sort of like what she did to Lloyd.

I think at that point it would be easier to keep her alive but trapped, rather than repeatedly tracking down her corpse/energies that might reform almost anywhere in the mortal world or the NN (assuming it can start running after it realizes you are hunting it).
--- Quote ---No wonder Mab wants Bob's knowledge out of circulation...Bob told Harry that one of the early Council Merlins apparently knew about the Halloween effect, because he originated the custom of masks on Halloween as a protective ritual. I wonder what ever happened to that Merlin, and if the Senior Council people might still know the truth?

It was "second or third Merlin of the White Council" so Id assume s/he died over the years (half-death retirements cannot be the norm, right?).
Fermilab. Just outside of Chicago, a 3.9 mile PERFECT CIRCLE OF AWESOME SCIENTIFIC MIGHT!!! (muahahah)
There has to be a use for this, no?

Probably but i doubt they make it known they are aware of it because... Mab and stuff.

That would make for an interesting (summoning)circle if anyone could imagine it. However, I think the delicate electronical components in it though would not respond well to any magic that used it.

Only a problem if it is a Mortal using it...
