Cowl theory Dead Beat -onward spoilers

--- Quote from: Romulan Cmdr on July 24, 2017, 08:11:36 PM --- good point. The suggestion of Simon being Cowl instead of being dead like people first thought is intriguing. I mean the rot could refer to all the damage Peabody was doing and its expanding effects.
And Harry hadnt met Simon so that could make sense.
Initally if I remember Cowl was more interested in stopping others and if in the process he got the power he could 'set things right' but that doesnt explain his summoning of the demon in white knight.

Initially he was interested in keeping the Erlking book from the others, but Im not convinced he actually didnt want the Power. Especially if Bob is correct and only Cowl knew the whole truth of how it needed to go down. He's the one that knew about Halloween (possibly), knew about Bob as a backup Word, etc. If he was trying to stop it he could have Not clocked Harry and freed the Erlking, Not done a proper job on the city-wide hex, among other opportunities.
Aminar:
Cowl being Kemmler makes no sense without lots of intervening factors. Kemmler somehow needs Bob to perform a ritual he invented? He says things like "I have nothing but disdain for the madman Kemmler?" I buy that Cowl is Simon. That makes sense to me. It has good Drama. Kemmler is Dead. Justin may have been Kemmler, but I still don't buy it.
jonas:
Alterna-Kemmler wouldn't know the dark hallow necessarily though. :)

If we're opening the door to alternate universe versions meddling, I think Id rather an Ebeneezer AlernaCoy out to steal the the prime-dv's Blackstaff.

I'll grant you that illusions can explain a lot, but the physical description isn't close to Eb.
