The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers
Drakul's game
Walter the skull:
I think retaliation is likely. Mab isn't going to thrilled by what Drakul did, and Lara is definitely not a fan of the Black Court.
This isn't really the Dresden Files way of doing things, but retaliating would be pretty easy. All that would need to happen is for some one to figure out where Drakul and the Black Court elders are living, and for Lara to bone a drone pilot. It might be easier than that, Lara would just need to tweet Drakul's location and say that the people who live there were involved in the terrorist attack on Chicago. I'm pretty sure that @Draculasdad neglects his social media, so he wouldn't see it coming.
Bad Alias:
I think Jim said there was going to be a book about giving the Black Court some payback.
Walter the skull:
Good, I really liked those chapters in Peace talks.

If I remember correctly Drakul says he's going to kill Harry after Harry is able to resist his will. River is thousands of years old I don't think anyone would have much luck bending his will. LTW can probably resist at least as well as Harry.
The question I have is, Drakul's actions could be taken as support for Ethniu, does that put him at risk for retaliation from other members of the accords?

The original being is dead. Drakul gives out a false immortality. He almost clones their memories and reanimates them in a body. I wonder...does Drakul create more Black Court vampires or just different strains? It was Dracula (in the series) who started the Black Court and Drakul wasn't impressed. In fact, in the early series the Black Court were as old as human memory (according to Harry) but that sort of got retconned. I suspect Drakul is the creator of all the various Vampire Courts, myself. But even if the original being hated Drakul, the parody that replaces it probably doesn't have any real will (except perhaps a White Court style). But even if Drakul is only associated with the Black Court I doubt any being he turned would or even could resist. There wouldn't be enough of the real being left.
Interesting question, I think Drakul has definitely earned some retribution for breaking the rules. Question is though - why did they let him join the accords in the first place?
Walter the Skull - Don't think Drakul has any of the regular Black Court weaknesses. He is the original. And as Bad Alias said, there is going to be a story about the Black Court getting what's coming. Not sure if will be a full novel or if just part of a story, or even a short story.

On that note, Drakul got enough stuff straight from the Dracula novel that he's probably also got the whole "kill the master and the minions die/stop being vampires" thing going for him too.
