Starborn - Generals used to control the Outsider Armies or weapons to fight them

HeWhoSucksAtWalking:
Simple enough question..The WC seems to fear Harry like he's Darth Vader. My question is if the whole Starborn system was infact  put in place by the Old Ones or Outsiders to lead their armies since only Mortal Magic can summon them here ( also given they seem to be able exert some control over the Outsiders . Then at some point the whole system was hijacked at some point by the accorded nations.. Thoughts?

seanham:
I have toyed with the idea that Starborn are part outsider and that is why they are not affected by outsider powers. With this line of thought in mind, it makes sense that Starborn are then created to lead outsider armies because as humans (or part humans) they have the ability to pull in vast numbers of outsiders and if the Starborn can bring up a Banner they will need to be protected from the in-humanness of the outsider minds. This however is a double-edged sword in that the Starborns are able to have greater ability and effectiveness over the outsiders, but the advantage still lies with the outsiders because all they need is one Starborn with one Banner to cause major damage.

Mira:


  Harry may be the exception that proves the rule as they say. 

Conspiracy Theorist:
Starborn appear to have a duality, that of the Starborn but also the Destroyer, they can destroy mankind as well as save it. That was Morgan’s fear, Justin had already gotten to Harry and maybe turned him to Destroyer. Which is why he was so hard on Harry.

I don't know, so far only Harry has shown any sign of duality.
