    Default What's In A Name? (Naming A Discipline)

    Had an idea today for a discipline using Cartomancy as its key skill. But what do I call it that is inspiring, epic, and not over-the-top?

    The discipline will involve manipulating fate, both improving your luck and damaging your foe's chances. I was thinking "Tides of Fate", but it sounds too watery. Thoughts?

    How about "Hand of Fate", which sounds omnious, and is a reference to a "Hand" of cards.

    I play primarily 3.5 D&D. Most of my advice will be based off of this. If my advice doesn't apply, specify a version in your post.

    Mmm. This is going to be an awesome Discipline. I can't wait to see it!

    As far as naming goes, I just throw out things. Perhaps some will get used as maneuver names.

    ...I hadn't even thought of that. There's even the implication of feats and stances that provide or are focused through a third eye. Definite contender.
