Who is the most evil character in the Dresdenverse?

I do wonder whether the war would have started had Harry been lured into it before the Doom was lifted, or if the Council would have got away with saying "nope, he's not really one of us" the way they tried to in SK.

Two ways to look at this.
#1. The Red Court had been gearing for war for a very long time, it is implied they wanted it to happen.
#2. If they were honest about not going to war if Harry was handed over, just how important is Harry in the grand scheme of things? Apparently very important.

#2 oh yes, nobody wants to kill Harry so far(well, none of the top people) they just want to possess him like a big ole' weapon. Which Mab has successfully done i'd add.

I think there are those who do want him dead. The problem for them is because there are so many big players working behind the scenes that to kill him they must do so in an indirect way, and it's proving difficult. I wouldn't be surprised at all if Harry's butt has been saved a lot from those behind the scenes. For example little Chicago not blowing his head off.

This reminds me of the thread about why the WC fears Harry. By their perspective, Harry is one of the baddest MFers walking.

They were not honest but they were playng power games. If you can make them forget Archangel and hand over one of your own for vampirization you basically own them. After that you just keep demanding things until the white council either breaks and start a war in a weaker position or becomes your property.
