Third page, suckers!
Maximum exposure times two!
(Don't worry - Red's got that kind "covered" (only not) this time! You're still safe!)
Updated for Drejk, Limey, and Freehold's excellent suggestions! :D
FaWtL: C'mon, guys! I need help!
Okay, I'm looking for snappy fantasy names.
None of you helped me out with this one (I'm too lazy and out of time to link the one here in FaWtL; but I'd really appreciate it if you guys could come up with words for that, too!), so let's see about something else.
I'm looking for a new name for a Prestige in my game that blends empath (or performance-based) abilities with arcane abilities; one that blends empath (or performance-based) with psionics; and one that blends empath (or performance-based) abilities with divine/religious abilities. Also natural stuff with that other stuff.
We have:
arcane, contemplative/enlightened, empath, natural, psionics, religious
Arcane/Contemplative: maester
Arcane/Empath: esper(?)**
-> Arcane/Performance: lyric thaumaturge
Arcane/Natural: elementalor? hedge mage?
Arcane/Psionics: cerebromancer
Arcane/Religious: mystic theurge; acolyte of the skin*, alienist*, arcane devotee*
Contemplative/Empath: enlightened spirit
-> Enlightened/Performance: sublime chord
Contemplative/Natural: geomancer?
Contemplative/Psionics: meditant
Contemplative/Religious: oracle?
Empath/Natural: beastmaster?
-> Perform/Religious: fochlucan lyrist
Empath/Psionics: mentalist; mesmerist, nightmare spinner
-> Perform/Psionics: mindsinger, minddancer?
Empath/Religious: exalter; evangalist*
-> Perform/Religious: chanter, choralist, hymnist?
Natural/Psionics: naturalist?
Natural/Religious: druid? stormlord?
Psionics/Religious: psychic theurge
* You know, I should really get onto making this thing...
** This may become a something else that I've needed...
*** I also really need to add:
- blighter (corrupted naturalist)
- inquisitor (religious skilled)
- crusader (religious warrior)
- liberator (religious)
- hospitaler (religious)
- templar (religious warrior)
- exorcist (sacred/religious)
- sacred fist (sacred/warrior)
- shining blade (sacred/warrior)
- temple raider (trickster/religious)
- void disciple (specific religious)
- ur-priest (anti-religious)
- war priest (warrior/religious)
- zealot (wilder/religious)
- animal lord (empath/natural/leadership)
- bloodhound (skilled)
- daggerspell mage (warrior/trickster/arcanist)
- daggerspell shaper (warrior/trickster/naturalist)
- dread pirate (empath warrior)
- ghost-faced killer (emapth/trickster)
- highland stalker (skilled rage)
- spymaster (skilled trickster)
- vigilante (skilled trickster?)
- virtuoso (social performer)
- argent savant (force-effect specialist)
- effigy master (crafting specialist)
- elemental savant (elemental specialist)
- enlightened fist (enlightened/warrior)
- geometer (prepared arcanist)
- fatespinner (arcane- or religious- or psionic- character)
- wayfarer guide (conjuration specialty arcanist)
- wild mage (wilder/arcanist)
- unseen seer (skilled/trickster/various)
- abjurant champion
... among others...
EDIT: Added new Freehold and Aranna ideas...

Speaking of names: words you never thought you'd have to come up with...
- concubare (a male concubine/part of a harem)
(That's my current "best stab" at it. Anyone else have anything different?)
usually men being employed exclusively for their carnal suite are referred to using animal breeding terms, such as stallion. Perhaps a ranch might be a better term?

Natural/arcane is elementalor, from the first anime I saw that was based on elemental abilities way back when...
Hm... unfortunately, wilder is taken by rage/psionics. Alas.
Elementalor... hm...
mentat, perhaps? Daemon? Genius?

I didn't know "you lucky bastard" was an animal breeding term.

Mentat may be... I've been struggling with my mythic path for a name that can cover psionics (and empaths) there, and I've been toying with mentat as belonging there.
The other possibility I've come up with is making what is currently called the metamind (a master of excess psionic potential) the mentat and making the metamind the mythic path.
Genius could certainly be a thing for an erudite, or maybe expert... hmmm... hmmm...
Daemon is an interesting idea. Thanks! :D

F$&$ing spammers. I finally think it about time to head to Gamer Connection to find some players in San Francisco, and they basically have that forum inoperable, and have for a few weeks now. Will have to dig around Reddit and RPG.net.
Also, it's time for me to take a break from worldbuilding and run a game. Not really a lot of time for writing adventures right now, though, so I'm pulling out Razor Coast. I've had that campaign for a while now. 'Bout time I used it. I am going to modify some characters so I can incorporate a large "Chinese" and "Southeast Asian" presence to the game, though. Razor Coast feels Pacific to me, so it needs fleets of pirate junks and stuff.

Hey, Rosita, I don't know what it's like on the West Coast, but here in Jax, every single group I've found in the last...oh, nine years or so...has been through Meetup.com. I'd give it a shot if I were you!

I can't help but find this mildly amusing. :)

I haven't had much interest in playing or running a Hell's Vengeance game... until now. It's Always Sunny in Longacre (or IASiCheliax) sounds like it could be fun.
I hardly think someone would try to do something like that. :-)

stands outside of Joss Whedon's office with a script for The Mass Effect trilogy, with Whedon's name already helpfully scratched over his name
Okay Freehold cut the crap. Either we start getting warm weather tomorrow or Mass Effect gets it.
Kapeesh!
this senseless act will divide the mass effect fanbase and lead to N7 vs browncoat warfare.
You don't want that, do you?
Because I know who I would place my money on.

Also, it's capece.

"He-ram" is the answer to the question "what does she keep him around for?"
"Well, I mean, obviously he ram well."

Oh, Microsoft. Now you just sound like a desperate used car salesman or made-for-tv ad.
"Upgrade for FREE to Windows 10 and we'll throw in a personal assistant."
I didn't all-caps the word "FREE" for emphasis - they did.
Look, guys, I appreciate the offer, as, heaven knows I could use the help, but where are you getting these "personal assistants" from...?
(Yeah, yeah, they're probably talking about "Cortana" or whatever, but... come on.)
EDIT: For clarity and accuracy. :)
