Comes from a fan on the JBIT, said he met him today(yesterday now?) and asked a few questions

--- Quote ---Sean Steinbarth  The questions I asked were:

1. How has the Oblivion War progressed since we last saw it in Backup?

Answer: Not at all. The Oblivion War goes decades without anything happening. The only way to portray it would be to do a series with timeskips.

2. Is Vadderung mortal? (Based on a WoJ from an interview video that has since been nuked from YouTube.)

Answer: Vadderung is mortal. . . Kind of.

3. Are Skinwalkers capable of procreation? (I wasn't specific with this one at first. Bare with me.)

Answer: No. They can't make something as big as they are, but they can make lesser beings.

Me: What about what about with mortals?

Answer: Ooohhh! Yes! They can do that. They can make scions. That's where Goodman Grey came from.

That one was for everyone who said skinwalkers were obviously incapable of procreation, due to being "genderless."

The nuking of old Jim videos is new to me, and troublesome...  an I guess we won't be getting another 100 pages on if Grey is a Scion ;p

--- Quote ---So I went to a signing for Brief Cases with Jim Butcher tonight, and one interesting question came up that Jim answered a bit too gleefully for Harry's comfort. I'll have to paraphrase the question since I can't remember it exactly, but I can quote Jim's response:

Question: Can the three faerie queens give Harry conflicting orders?

Jim Butcher: "THEY CAN NOW!!!"

He didn't actually rub his hands together maniacally, but the smile on his face was slightly disturbing. So yeah, I guess there's that to look forward to (or dread).

Quantus:
Regarding #2:  I tried, I really Tried to get an answer to that on the AMA:


--- Quote ---4) Did Vadderung sacrifice anything to be able to spend so much time on Earth, or is he just at a higher risk than most prefer? Or something else entirely?

4) Over several different points of the Dresden Files universe, the old gods' power was curtailed, limits set upon it, so that they wouldn't be able to do as much interfering with the development of humans. That was fine with most of them--they were kind of self absorbed jerks anyway, a lot of them. But a few wanted to keep walking beside and guiding humanity.

I don't want to ruin the story for you, and it will be out further down the line. :)

I think all we can really take away from that is that Vadderung is an oddball.  What it does not say, or even really hint one way or the other, is whether he was able to stay relevant with his full Immortal Power intact or whether he had to give it (or something else) up.

I can't help but think that your plan of seducing and impregnating a naagloshi to gain control of the spawn is a little ill advised.
Edit: thanks for sharing Jonas. I meant to say that first thing, I really did.

wardenferry419:
Thanks for the intel.
