The_Mather1 Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 I had to read "beyond sensical" to try and get what Mather was saying. The thing is that I don't know Greek and would rather not have to consult a table every time. Could you translate bone magic or void magic?Osteomancy and Akyromancy.Though the former should fall under Biomancy and the latter under Choromancy. As flesh was just a common denominator for body mass and a void is the most pure form of space. Twitter: @TheMather1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resistance Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Originally, the -mancy suffix referred to divination via an object, so alomancy (salt) was trying to predict the future by using salt and the control over salt. Also, just because the Greek name it doesn't mean you need to call it XYZ magic, there are loads of suitable options depending on the setting. Adding the -mancy suffix implies total control over something in the same way superheroes do. It's not really something that wizard's or adventurers have unless they were born with it, they're comic-book superpowers. I posted my suggestion earlier but it was a shadowed by the argument. Getting rid of very niche and limited magic (-mancy) would probably make magic a lot more fun overall. It would make sense to get rid of elemental control which means that you're forced to specialise in a certain elements to get anywhere and means that there's a whole collection of magic-types that are just weaker than the rest. Elemental control could be replaced with the type of control, so conjuration, manipulation, dispelling, animation which would be self-sufficient manipulation, can manipulate with half the power of conjuration except permanent. There would be sub-skills for all of the types of magic, for example being adept at the manipulation of fire. Also, egypt seems a good idea place for a setting.

Alg Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Seems like it does matter but depends on the people involved. If the character is a formally trained/intellectual wizard, he'd know it by geomancy. If he isn't, it doesn't make sense for him to know it by any other name than earth magic. They're two names for the same thing, it just depends on how formal you want to be. 1 I painted some stuff and put it on tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't really get my hands on a copy I don't think...Yes, but you're a PS3 player, right? The first game wasn't released on the PS3, so the second includes a playable comic-prequel-thing to fill you in on the story and let you make all of the important choices.

Earth Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I'm not entirely sure if you guys would like this, but, I found this interesting game that's currently in Beta. Here's the link to the main site and the info, however I find most of the game modes are unique and interesting to play if a little understaffed at the moment, as I haven't had a chance to give them a really good go.http://www.smashmuck.com/ Youtube account: Earthgragonsage; currently uploading not an effing thing.[hide=Memorable Crossroads Quotes.]Reigan: NO MOOSE CAN SAVE US NOW; ...Had that been taken out of context, it would have been comical...

Ieyfura Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRpPIyJDSEQ&feature=related The Tavern needs to play DayZ. DayZ. I have this mod for Arma 2. It is a very very very good project. But if anyone does decide to try it, keep in mind it is in alpha stages and we're nothing more than testers for the standalone. (Standalone coming soon, so no point really buying Arma 2: CO at this point to play it unless you really really want to spend $30 to get an earlier access to a buggier version) "Don't get in my face, don't invade my space.

archimage_a Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I'd play dayZ, though if a standalone is coming out seems sensible to wait. http://www.uzzisoft..../archimage.jpegWell I knew you wouldn't agree.

Earth Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Maybe, but the other one is interesting as well. Also, I'm not a big fan of zombies.

Nexaduro Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I suppose the Standalone IS supposed to be released before the year is out. But you never know. I look forwards to playing with you guys some time in the future. 10:53 PM - retech9691: I feel the need10:53 PM - retech9691: To include many chasms in my story arc10:53 PM - Resistance: You mean plotholes?
