(I should let you know that world-building is kind of... my thing? I've taught classes on it, so I tend to go a PINCH overboard when it comes to Thinking A Lot about story. :D)

Anyway, your questions are absolutely A+. :)

As to whether or not this fascinating scenario (which, you should know, COULD HAPPEN about three books from now) is possible:

If Aakesh did not interfere, yes. Harry could be made into a Night-Child. For now.

The key difference is this: Aakesh has not yet stopped Harry aging. He hasn't really messed with his genetics yet at all; Harry is NINETEEN in The Sundered; he's not done growing, and Aakesh wants him to reach peak health before he stops that process.

And yes, the plan is to stop the process. He intends to keep Harry with him forever. But he doesn't want to do that until Harry's at physical peak.

As long as Harry is purely human, he can be made. When Aakesh stops the aging process, Harry's DNA will have shifted. He won't be human anymore, not purely. At that point, he could no longer be made. As for the consequences, unless Aakesh chose to HELP Harry deal with his Beast, Harry would have to handle it himself - and it would be rough on the poor guy.

I adore Harry, but he's not the best when it comes to self-control. It's a work in progress, shall we say.

Funny thing is. for Harry, it would honestly be... glorious.
