So if he's actually dead then whose up next? Klaus the Toymaker finally?

Where did Christos die?  I thought he had been badly injured -- burned, actually.  Personally, I suspect that Christos is NOT Black Council and I also suspect that he is not particularly anti-Dresden.  He is, of course, monumentally self-important as all wizards are. 

Conspiracy Theorist:
My reading has Christ’s died, the Merlin was holding onto LTW and Ebs proxies whilst in surgery, with the Gatekeeper at the Gates he held three votes out of five, leaving Mai and a badly shaken Martha Liberty. The Sprites display didn’t do Harry a favour in that respect with Martha.

Christos I think was Jim’s attempt at a Pratchett Wizard, and he was definitely being used by the Merlin as a stalking horse. He wasn’t Black Council, if he had been he wouldn’t have been in Chicago.

Mira:


  Just because he isn't mentioned doesn't mean he is dead. 

Conspiracy Theorist:
His utility to the narrative is at an end. There is no point to internal White Council politics now they have thrown Harry out.

My question is did he ever have any utility?  Oh we readers did a lot of speculation about him, but as a character he was almost nil to begin with.  Of the Senior Council, the members that have had any significant interaction with Harry are, Eb, the Merlin, Rashid, and Listens to Wind.  Martha Liberty got a few lines, but between Summer Knight and Battle Ground she may well have never existed, the same goes for Ancient Mai
