The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers
Thoughts on Simon Petrovich being Cowl
Yuillegan:
Indeed. I had forgotten the Lash comment. But many characters have hinted that dying and coming back would allow Dresden to gain enlightenment and power, and a measure of notice.
Vadderung himself has died and come back (if he is indeed Odin). Vadderung took notice before Dresden died...but I also think in someways he knew what would happen.
Dresden has always commanded high-level interest. So I wonder what beings will notice him now that didn't before, considering his level of interest was already quite high. HWWBh, Lea, Mab, the Mothers, Titania, Uriel, Vadderung, Ferrovax have taken interest. With the exception of Lea, all are very high level (some are even cosmic-level). And I would be surprised if it was only them. I am sure there are others who haven't yet been on screen.

Read that quotation from Lash very carefully, mortality has multiple meanings.
Cristos may or may not be a fool, but a fools demeanor can hide many things.

IIRC Harry is supposed to be 26 at the time of Stormfront in 2000, which would put his year of birth as 1974, 13 years after Kemmler’s last stand.
Separately, Bob notes in Dead Beat that there are still 4-5 of Kemmler’s former disciples running around at the time.
I think Cowl views himself as a some time student of Kemmler’s but not as his disciple/ a Kemmlerite. Grevane, Corpsetaker & Cowl all knew each other back in the day & respect each other’s abilities, in fact each of them can be viewed as masters of different fields of necromancy: Grevane is a zombie expert, Corpsetaker is the body-switching expert & Cowl is the magical theory expert.
An interesting question however is that if Cowl is a former student of Kemmler’s & the most likely candidates for Cowl’s identity are Justin/ Simon (who were both on the White Council at the time), why didn't they warn Kemmler of the impending attack? We know the entire WC was involved in the attack & that Justin was a warden at the time...

True it could mean becoming or gaining immortality. Then again harry did learn a lot during Ghost Story. Souls, free will, his encounter with a walker, that both fae and angels can't act without a balancing act in return.

I misquoted Michael's birth date, it was 45 BFS not 1945. :-[
