Maggie the Younger
Mira:
--- Quote ---The curse in Changes wouldn't have effected Maggie. That's why it was important that she was the youngest ramp.

But she wasn't, Susan was. All the Red Court vamps descend from the Red King, so when she was turned, Susan was the youngest, when Harry killed her, it killed all the Red Court Vamp genes up the line, those who were part turned more or less, it killed the Red Court part, if they were young enough and healthy enough, their now fully human lives moved on. Even if little Maggie was part vamp, that part would have died, and she is now fully human. Yes, as she learns about what happened to her mother and her father's part in her death it is going to affect her, but not because there is some lingering Red Court Vamp in her body.

My WAG is that Maggie is set up to marry a dragon.
It was supposed to be Charity but she rejected her magic and went with Michael. Then it would have been Molly. I think that was the other purpose Mab was grooming her for mentioned in CD. Now that will fall on Maggie, Probably in the next to last book before the BAT, there's time for the the Dresdenverse to advance six to 8 years and make her a teen bride. Charity had to be pretty young, 20-21 at most, whrn Siriothrax carried he off.

Sorry. Unclear antecedent. By she I meant Susan, not Maggie.

I'm not so sure about that. My question is how. Were there any "half-turned" younger than Susan? Was someone turned after GP who resisted until Changes? If so, would the curse affect them as they were younger than Susan? Susan was the youngest full vamp. She wasn't necessarily the youngest half-turned.
We could end up with more ramps because there were younger half-turned. There wouldn't have been many. Justine didn't know such a thing existed in GP. I imagine they're rare.

Timing is everything, not saying it is impossible and some other half turned decided to rip someone's throat out in anger a second after Susan and be the youngest, or somehow became half turned.. But if that happened, the curse reversal just wouldn't have happened. The moment she became full, Susan was the newest, thus the youngest, Harry killed her seconds after and the whole Red Court line from her to the Red King died.

It might have skipped that newest one but the rest would be toast anyway.
