Is there a point in time Harry was forced against his will?

(1/2) > >>

groinkick:
Harry has mentioned that several wizards on the Council know his Name.  He also gave Chauncy 3 of his Names and said that Chauncy provides information to many wizards, and that some would want his Name...  Goes on to say he could be killed with it or forced to do something.

My question is, has there been a time during the series that stands out to you as a possibility for Harry being manipulated this way?

isoycrazy:
Besides some bit in Small Favor when he was restricted from knowing fire magic?

I don't know how much of his Names given to Chauncey are in play right now.  Harry is a malleable being and he could have changed enough as a person that the Names given then are not who he is now.  Harry of FM wasn't a father, teacher, mentor, killer of Fae Queens, bearer of Lasciel's Shadow, redeemer of Lasciel's Shadow, Knight of Winter, Warden of the White Council, Warden of Demonreach, journeyed into part of the afterlife only to come back again, gifted Soulfire by an Archangel, and whose Faith helped restore the Sword of Faith to an even greater power.

While much of that has been what has happened to Harry, it has helped him define and redefine who he is.  He was much more innocent back then, more naive, and a lot happier.

I think it has been close, I even think he admitted that one did know his full name with the inflections, cannot remember who, but it didn't work out.

Uriel and Ferrovax both managed to knock him flat using his Name, at least, but they cheat.

Can't remember any normal humans, personally, and thus no time (apart from Mab on fire magic) that he got manipulated that way.

He said that Morgan had it in Storm Front, but then added that other wizards on the Council had (I think from his trial)
