Do most of you who think Cowl=Simon also think Elaine=Kumori?I'm of the mind that Cowl=Simon, but Kumori isn't really anyone else (possibly the apprentice that Simon has been mentioned having; she's more unknown than Kumori as far as we're concerned). I don't think that Kumori=Elaine.
It would be a great inside joke… Perhaps JB will elevate one or two of this forums more colorful posters to godhood.The Lady Duck is already Mab. What more do you want?
My word, you've got to be one of the most historically knowledgeable people I've ever encountered :-)Not only history. The Lady Duck knows science and math too. It just isn't fair
Apollo has Sun, Light, intellect, prophecy, and truth among others. Primarily my exposure to Apollo has been as a god of wisdom enlightenment and intellect. The Greek god of of war was Ares. If he has appeared as one of the immortals I would bet he got rolled into Odin, but I don't see the Erlking as a fit at all.I like the way that my professor once described Apollo. The god of everything the Greeks were really proud of (prophecy, healing, light, civilization, etc.)
). Athena took over the respectable aspects of war. Once you get to the Romans, Mars was given more respect
)Hey, with the revelations about the nature of Nemesis and when it infected particular people, I was wondering if there are any threads looking back at Lea's behavior after contamination? I just finished rereading GP tonight, and realized it may have been painfully obvious that Lea had been changed from before to after the party.I haven't noticed a thread specifically dealing with Lea and her Nemesis infection. At least for the past few weeks or so.
How does him doing all the hard work make him a kemmlerite? He could simply be a normal wizard using necromancy.Well, if Cowl is complaining about always doing the hard work, he's also implying some level of cooperation with the other Kemmlerites. Whether or not Cowl was lying is debatable, but you would have to explain why Cowl felt the urge to lie. My copy of DB is not with me at the moment, but doesn't Cowl say that they "play nice" but are always looking to stab each other in the back to be Kemmler's favorite?
I'm really really sure Corpsetaker isn't SC level. Heck, in GS MOLLY was able to hold her off for a pretty significant amount of time. Remember that mind magic is Corpsetakers speciality and we know that SC wizards are super awesome in their areas of speciality (Eb is a direct combat specialist and he was able to cause a freakin earthquake. The Merlin is a ward specialist and he was able to create a ward that held of the ENTIRE Red Court (If I'm remembering correctly) ). Molly should have been squished in an instant.
We saw that Grevane was charging into battle against Corpsetaker (and she against him) so they clearly thought they could beat each other.
that.. I could buyAgreed. Lara isn't quite brick-like enough for me to be Wonder Woman in the big leagues. Lea seems to be a better fit as we progress.
actually, Lara is annother classic charchter..
Kinky female vampire
Jim is a very good writer, and quite entertaining, but he does tend to use classic charchter builds
well elaine is the one who amde the wonder woman joke in WN...So Lara is Wonder Woman?
that being said, since murphy is not a 6' tall demi goddess with super stregth, speed, flight, super human weapons skills, and lesbian tendacies ill have to assume shes not
Do we know that Cowl was a disciple of Kemmler. Harry calls all 3 of the necromancers "kemmlerites" but we only get explicit confirmation for Grevane (in Dead Beat) and Corpsetaker (in Ghost Story)Cowl also implies that he usually had to do the hard work instead of Corpsetaker or Grevane when he released the Erlking from Harry's trap.
Grevane and Corpsetaker are definately not SC level. We have multiple instances of Harry remarking on how powerfull Cowl is and how he would have squished Harry if not for luck but we get no such remarks for the other two necromancers.
This is a delightful thread, especially since I've had trouble using google to hunt down topics on here.
I seek as much info as possible that deals with Nicodemus's knowledge of Nemesis.
Can someone point me in the direction of thread that explains why everyone seems to think the parasite is Lash?It's based off a WoJ from GS
Is Lasciel going to make a comeback? The coin is still buried in the lab, right?
Her coin isn’t in the lab anymore. Her story is not yet over. However, both Lasciel and Lash appeared in Ghost Story, but not under those names.
