New names for focuses

[A Man In Black]

I've noticed a lot of discussion of new names for focuses, since it's a taken term in D&D already. "Mysteries" has been suggested and is fairly popular, but let's see what else we can come up with.

Spheres

Orders

Totems/Fetishes

Books

Studies

Practices

Disciplines

Inspirations

Masteries

Radiances

Insights (might work as an alternate term for Revelations)

Idioms - possibly with reflavoring; each idiom sees magic as working a different way, which would allow concept broadening - Fire Idiom not just fire blasts, but abilities that burn impurities from allies (Break Enchantment) and burn out their foes (Enervation)

Obsessions

Convergences

Unities

Gifts (another Revelation alternative as well) - So that oracles are "battle-gifted" or "fire-gifted".

Pivots or Fulcrums or Centers

[tejón]

"These divine vessels are granted power without their choice, selected by providence to wield powers that even they do not fully understand."

With that in mind I could go with Spheres, Inspirations or Gifts, but probably not the others you listed.

Others which might work from my perspective:

Affect

Agony

Auspice

Calling

Edict

Embodiment

Font/Fount

Impulse

Investiture

Influence

Passion

Urge

Bold = I particularly like this one.
Italic = Has a potentially confusing homonym.
My two favorites fall into the latter category too, dammit. :)
