--- Quote from: Arjan on September 11, 2017, 09:28:49 PM ---Never saw that one but I remember one about the white god as a mantle and for all we know it had changed hands already.
And another one about how they express themselves on earth that changes even if they themselves don't. The drift in belief about the angels and the white god is a historical fact so I assume it is so in the dresdenverse as well.

The one about angels being absolute was recent. I can't place the source right now - it was older than DragonCon, but I think it was one of the Q&A's this year or late last.
Would you happen to remember where the TWG as a mantle that may have changed hands was from? I had some vague memories of a comment like TWG is the eternal creator of the universe, but wasn't always. I've been trying to find that one again for a while to confirm what exactly was said, but I haven't been able to find it. Somebody else remembering something along those general lines makes me wonder if maybe the Fall was precipitated by the creator mantle changing hands and some of the angels resenting the change in management.

All myth is true even if it was not true in the past and it is still not true somewhere else. I remember vaguely something about regional differences as well. Something about Harry having a lot to do with angels because he lives in a country with a lot of Christians.
Imthink christian exceptionalism is only true in the dresdenverse if you are a christian :)

You find that one can you give a link? I personally agree with it but the only corroborating evidence I know of is that MS, who opposite MW is basically the source of creation, is the 2nd one, the first having at one time abdicated. I see this as TWG creator post being abandoned for life as TWC, ability to choose and change. TWG in a human form is a lot of why I supposite that Lucifer, as his polarity, probably did the same.
*Although looking at Uriel I've always seen a younger TWC so maybe he ended up there and TWG became part of a larger identity?(TWG seems more role based on human belief than angel absolute identity)

--- Quote from: Skin Game Chapter 4 ---“Petulance does not become the Winter Knight,” Mab said. She turned to the elevator doors, which had an enormous dent in them the same shape as a wizard’s noggin. They swept open with a groan of protesting metal. “Do this for me, and I shall ensure the safe removal of the parasite when the task is completed.”

For most people, your head would break before a an elevator door got dented like that, afaict he didn't even get a concussion.
--- Quote from: Cold Days Chapter 13 ---“I’ll just put a clean shirt over them,” I said. “Look, it isn’t a big deal. Little marks like that are going to be gone in a day or two.”
“Little . . . Winter Knight stuff?”
--- End quote ---
For most people, deep scratches from claws take a fair bit longer than a day or two to heal, it's not super healing but it's noticeably faster than normal.

I will if I can, but I'm not optimistic. I looked for that one for almost an hour last time the topic came up and couldn't find it, and I don't have anywhere near that much free time for the next few weeks.
