Mirror Mirror character changes ideas

Murphy is happily married to Rich, has 7 children with him and wears cute dresses with flower print.
Michael and Charity are Denarians. They don't have any children.
Nicodemus has never picked up a coin and therefore is long dead. Anyway, the book isn't divisible by 5, so he won't be in there.
Uriel is the same.
Mab is the head of the wizards.
Ancient Mai is Winter Queen.
Harry's mother is still alive and with Lord Thomas Raith who leads the defense of the Outer Gates with all the other White Court Vampires. Thomas has killed his father a long time ago and became Vampire king himself.
I have no idea where I would put Harry or Ebenezar. I just blurted out what was in my head here, lol.

The main problem with these alternate character traits is that Jim has said that all the changes in the Mirror Mirror world will spring from Harry having made a single different choice in Grave Peril.

Oh. Damn. You're right. I didn't think of that.

One of Dresden's possible powerups was to go full on Necromancer according to Jim. Mavra and her ilk fear that kind of magic. Maybe alternate Dresden is a Necromancer, and is more than capable of enslaving her. Hell maybe he can drain the very thing that keeps her alive (if you can call it that) for the purpose of empowering himself.

I remember that in Dead Beat, Bob said that Kemmler was buddies with most of the vampire courts. So, if Alt-Harry has become a necromancer it might make sense that he is working with Mavra. If that is what happens, then it's possible that our Harry might learn more about the Black Court and Drakul in particular.
I'm expecting a scene or two where Harry disguises himself as Alt-Harry. It happened in the original Star Trek episode, so I'm guessing Jim won't pass up an opportunity to do the same thing in his Mirror Mirror story. In that case Harry could actually meet Drakul and get some juicy information first hand.
IMO, The only other interesting character that Harry doesn't have much information on is Cowl. So I could see Alt-Harry working with him.
However, dangerous as Cowl may be, Mavra is far creepier and is therefore a better dramatic choice for Alt-Harry to have as an ally.
Here's something I don't think anyone has mentioned. Wizard Peabody is still alive and a member of the White Council. Warden Morgan is probably dead and the White Council is losing the war with Red Court.
Also, before finding a way to go home I would guess that Harry would want to set things right to the degree that he can. He'll have to find a way to expose Peabody, redeem either Thomas or Molly, depending on which one is still alive and for personal reasons find time to fit in a soulgaze with Murphy.

Well one of the Harrys is a fast ally of Mavra by WoJ, but it doesn't say which one, could easily spin that into a really awkward teamup.
Arjan:
If Harry is a full blown necromancy he probably used Kemmler’s book to enthrall Mavra
