He already did Susan the Dinosaur in Dead Beat. Harry commented that he took the T Rex's body when he could have done so with any of the zombies.

Well any true die hard Star Wars fan will know that Vader means father, from their 'ung' means 'young'. i.e. Young Father.

To you mean the translation of his name meaning 'younger father'.
Im not entirely convinced any of them would qualify as "naturally occuring" with the possible exceptions of things like The Eldest, or maaaaybe the Erlking.
You have apparently missed the Elf-on-the-shelf phenomenonFaith does not need to be filtered through a church or holy book to be real. And Frankly, Kids do Belief better than we adults do.
Qualified agreement. I dont have any reason to believe that *all* similar deities are the same entity by any means, but Im not ruling it out (on a case-by-case basis) either, given what we've been told about how Immortals fight over mantles. And in the case of the greco/roman split I think we can be confident that those were an evolution of the same entities, and evolution that continued well beyond the limits of the popular myths, given the whole Fae/Hecate link.
There's also the evidence of a Centaur in the Summer Court suggesting the Fae took many Greek mythological beings into their fold.
In the comic book with the Hecaetean Hag Bob said that the original Hecate arose in an ascension like ritual that the Hag was attempting to perform. I can't remember all of the details but it sounded very Dark Hallowesque.
Theirs also the statue of Hecate in Skin Game, and Hades reminiscing about how Hecate kept Demeter distracted on Hades and Persephone

DF Spoilers / Arthurian Myths in Dresden Files
« on: May 10, 2018, 04:21:12 AM »
We know that the Original Merlin heavily features in the background of The Dresden Files, and Amorraccius is regarded as Excalibur by both Michael and Sir Stuart.
Does anyone have any thoughts as to how Arthurian Myths affect or figure into the Dresden Files?
I remember when reading Le MOrte de Arthur that Three Faerie Queens appeared to Arthur at the moment of his death.
The Lady of the Lake is widely regarded as Fae, as is the Green Knight and the Fisher King.
King Arthur is also listed as one of the Leaders of the Wild Hunt according to some sources.
Any other ideas or moments when Arthurian Myths appear in the Dresden Files? Or ones that you wish to appear in the Dresden Files?

DF Spoilers / Supernatural Nations you'd like to see.
« on: May 02, 2018, 02:24:31 AM »
Jim has done a good job of setting up several supernatural nations and figures from the Red Court, the Fae both Courts, Monoc Securities, The White Council, The Fomor.
Is their any nation or figure from myth and legend you'd like to see included in the Dresden verse?
For me personally I'd like to see what Drakul is capable of and whether or not he has a small army at his command.
I'd also like to see Peter Pan and Jack Frost as minor nobility in the Summer and Winter Courts respectively as personification of youth in both seasons.

For me it'd be Namshiel from what little we know of him he's a powerful sorceror and could teach Polonius Lartessa.

« on: December 14, 2017, 12:01:41 AM »
I'm sure none of the Alpha's are stupid enough to sell drugs or do any stupid illegal profit shit that could get them sent to prison. However cops would have noticed the downturn in crime in the radius of the Campus. WOuld they assume those long term academics run the campus and make sure no hard shit goes down. and therefore would they assume the Alpha's are a gang to be kept an eye on?
Possibly run by one Harry Dresden an independent contractor who sometimes works for Gentlemen Johnny Marcone sometimes against him.
Harry Dresden is protected by former cop Karrin Murphy who has a dodgy reputation on the police force.
*shrug* from what I know of Chicago culture it seems a pretty accurate representation of the socio economic system.

I trust Murphy's instincts and she was suspiscious that she showed up at an inconvenient time.
Plus you know she doesn't think with her dick, and think awww poor little female needs help. Even post Lash Harry doesn't always get that right, although admittedly he saw through Roseanna, just not Hannah Ascher.
