Actually it would make sense for Bob to act like that with Kemmler. Remember that Bob takes on the personality of the one controlling him. When Bob wanted to quickly kill Harry, that would be Cowl's instincts. When it was telling Cowl what to do, again, his personality traits. That doesn't mean Cowl is Kemmler, but Bob's attitude is a clue of Cowl's personality. He seemed pretty murderous.

Or that he'd actually encounter E bob before and had a 'flavor' of what he expected. E Bob was noticed during the war, if anyone knew he still lived they'd have some very different idea's on him... Or it could be a direct aspect of accessing the Kemmler knowledgeable version?

I think evil Bob would be searching for Cowl, to his knowledge the only true premier necromancer around. He is either a potential ally/competition/enemy, or even a combination of them. So either way, it would be in its own interest to gather intelligence on him. Evil Bob could have learned about the circle for the fomor or his former patron, that slain necromancer.

--- Quote from: groinkick on September 03, 2017, 06:54:04 PM ---When Harry saw Cowl he noticed his wrists were covered in scars. In Fist full of Warlocks, Kemmler literally skinned himself to escape his bonds. Meaning his ripped the flesh from his own wrists to escape. Dunno how likely it is but thought there could be a connection.

For starters, I'm fairly sure Kemmler went through multiple body swaps between Fistful of Warlocks and his last stand against the Council. The Council thought he was dead several times and he popped back up again, presumably the same way Corpsetaker was trying to.
Secondly, even if I'm mistaken about the body swaps, we're talking about a good century and a quarter for a wizard's superior healing to do its thing. Harry's burn scars went from something vastly worse than Kemmler did to himself on the ropes to showing significant improvement in the span of a decade. Kemmler would have been slinging around more power for a dozen times as long to see the fringe benefits on healing.
kazimmoinuddin:
In some stories, necromantic arts could be used in a form of healing. Healing here is very advanced magics, I bet kemmler would be capable of a form of necromancy that could be mistaken for healing.
