Elementalist Wizard titles?


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion

Dark Archive

So I was thinking about elementalist wizards today and was wondering about some of the titles.

Obvious:
Fire - Pyromancer
Ice - Cryomancer
Water - Hydromancer?

But the rest:
Electricity - ????
Earth - ????
Others?

Anyone have any insight? I'm not sure if this is already addressed in one of the books with the elementalist archetypes, I don't have my books with me at the moment.

Boy I feel dumb, Geomancer is obvious and I've known about Geomancers since I was a kid. Thanks for that one.

EDIT: Also, I guess air would be aeromancer.

Air- Aeromancer?

Metal- Metallomancer?
Wood- i have no freaking clue!, but you could insert a phallic joke here...


Wood - Lignimancer.

Or aquamancer if you prefer the Latin prefix.

Either Electrumancer (the Latin form) or Elektromancer (the Greek form).

Fulgurmancer/Fulgormancer would also be appropriate, from the latin word for Thunderbolt.


If you want something more obscure for wood, try Xylumancer or Phytomancer.

Implies that it deals more with iron than just metal... But just about every major language in the world sounds very similar to "metal" so perhaps it's a decent stand-in.


Electric - Voltomancer


Oh, come on! This is an easy one.

Air - Shockomancer
Earth - Rockomancer ... Dirtomancer would also work
Fire - Scorchomancer
Ice - Chillomancer
Water - Quenchomancer

Others ...

Beer - Chugomancer
Ice cream - Brainfreezomancer
Smoke - Coughomancer or Cancermancer
Chocolate - Do I really even need to say it?

I'm sure I'm forgetting a few.

Okay...WHO let Frogboy out of his cage?


Sure, you could just add -mancer to everything but that makes everything sound less interesting by giving everything a similar sounding name. I'd prefer something that invokes the theme you want for that type of magic in whatever setting you are playing in. This might even change from setting to setting.

Fire - Pyromancer/ Fire Bender(subtle reference)/ Embermage/ Hell Speaker
Ice - Frost Mage/ Polarist/ Borean Warcaster/ Winter Wizard
Water - Rain Caller/ Aqueous Adept/ Flood Magus/ Tide Mage
Electricity - Conduit/ Galvanizer/ Stormbringer/ Channeler
Earth - Geomancer/ Terrene/ Terrathurge/ Earth Speaker
Poison/Disease - Venomancer/ Blighter/ Wither Kin
