    Default Opinions Needed: Name for a Warrior-Mage Class

    I need name ideas for a warrior-mage class that uses the Spellweaving mechanic from here. Ideas?

    Note: names that are IP (duskblade, swordmage, etc.) are out: I need to not use IP stuff.

    Is "Spellsword" taken? (portmanteau of "spell" and "sellsword")

    Spellsword is in CWar, but I could use it if I can't find anything better. I was possibly thinking just using Warmage and being done with it.

    "Gish"

    Blade Mage
    Mageblade
    Arcane Guardian
    Hex Knight
    Weave Knight

    Really, depends on the setting, and what other "buzzwords" are connected with magic in that setting. Duskblade, for example, really doesn't make any sense unless you factor in the elves' belief that magic and nighttime are connected.

    Weaveknight or Mageblade might work.

    Textor

    Latin for "weaver" according to this online translator, which may in fact be bunk.

    Plus your character can get feats involving text messaging.

    If it's "Lightning Warrior" you might as well go all-out.

    Lightning Guitar Warrior 40,000 Volts.

    It'd probably make a pretty good PrC, if that's any consolation.

    Well crap...none of you guys got the reference. Do yourselves a favor and google "Lightning Warrior" right now. Be sure to read through the PEACH comments as well. I will not claim responsibility for an splitting of sides resulting in the absolute absurdness of it all though...

    One piece of mage information, one piece of warrior information

    Mage: Spellshard, of Generation, of Creation, Thread, Weaver,

    Warrior: Knight, Warden, Blade, Hero, Iron, of Battle, War,

    Results: Spellshard Warden, Iron Thread, Blade of Creation, War Weaver, Hero of Generation,

    I get the sense that the result would be better if I could think of more words to jumble together

    Why not a simple warrior mage, mage warrior, warmage or battlemage? Not everything has to sound fancy.

    Threadwarden. It sounds cheesy now, but give it time to grow on you.
    I would really like to see a game made by Obryn, Kurald Galain, and Knaight from these forums.

    I'm not joking one bit. I would buy the hell out of that.
