Could any Senior Council member handle Harry if
groinkick:
he took up Thorned? I ask because Lasciel really didn't seem to buff him up that much. Same for her next host... Marcone on the other hand who never showed any magical talent was out doing crazy magic we've never seen Harry do.
If Thorned could make Marcone that good, I have to imagine that Harry, a real wizard with a lot of horsepower would be an absolute nightmare. Harry assumed the previous host was around one to two hundred years more advanced, but Marcone was doing advanced stuff with not to long of training. I think that Harry would grow in months what would take him decades to learn otherwise. After say 5 years I just can't help but think he'd be extremely powerful, and talented, doing magic that he hadn't even imagined.
What do you think?

One of her opening offers was to make him the single best human water mage on the planet, don't confuse Harry turning down her offers for her having nothing to offer.

You mean the host pulling out displays of power and precision that Harry said would be impressive even by senior council standards? That host?

Yes Thorned and Harry would be a nightmare combo (he's also Jim's second pick for a coin to stick Harry with after Lasciel).

While he might like all the magical knowledge and maybe the power, as with Lasciel, in the end Harry is his own man and since Namshiel isn't likely to fall in love with him like Lasciel, it would end badly for him.. It still might end badly for Marcone.

Lash the shadow didn't buff Harry that much because her whole game was 'the first taste is free' to convince him to take up the coin for more.
She did a lot for Hannah in the abilities she provided for fighting the Fomor and getting through the gate of fire. She was still throwing around a lot of power in the vault fight; they only lost that because the fallen and the host both let their anger get the best of them.

Yes, Butters saved the day there when he woke Harry to the fact that "Shelia" was just an illusion. That put him on to the shadow in his head, and then when Murphy further pointed out to him that seemed more violent than he needed to be, he realized how addictive the use of Hell Fire was and how much influence Lasciel was gaining over him. Once he realized that, it was game over, he could resist her with the force of his will because he now understood what he was fighting.
I doubt that Hannah had that kind of outside help to begin with, also I have the feeling that she willingly took up the coin as a power play. Yes, Harry picked up the coin willingly, but in order to save little Harry [yeah, I know he could have done it differently,] not to gain power.
