Marcantony Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Im creating some spheres of magic but I cant come up with any decent names. What would you call the following? Magic dealing with psionics. Is there anything that sounds better than mind magic or mentalism? Magic which brings to life tattoos, art and sculptures. Magic which deals with instant travel including dimensional crossing. Magic which involves the creation of magical objects or imbuing existing objects with abilities. Such as a gun which fires bullets which only harm ghosts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supreme Serpent Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Re: Need names for some magic types For the art-themed one, Shakespeare said, "The object of art is to give life a shape." which seems fitting. Perhaps Avonamancy or something as a tribute? "The Way of the Bard"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon ("Hello, my name is Simon.. and I like to make drawrings..." intentional extra r) 3. Travelicious! Pop Art (c'mon, that's good!), no good ones here. 4. Forging, Lacing, Imbuement. In trying to not use other's suggestions again, I had to stretch a tad, but my favorite by far is #2. =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcantony Posted February 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Re: Need names for some magic types Wow. Thanks for the continuing suggestions. Ive thought up a couple more I need names for; Shadow magic which involves darkness and the moon (but not of an evil nature). Kind of like a shadowlass/moon knight combination. Magic drawn from crystals. Geomancy perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egyptoid Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Re: Need names for some magic types Arbitration is a spell-casting form that entails bending the laws of magic, or least getting a temporary injunction to bypass said laws.
