    Default Quick fluff question for beguilers

    I slightly tweaked the magic schools in my game. Conjuration, Evocation, Necromancery and Transmutation remain unchanged by Abjuration and Divination have been merged into Mysticism. I want to do the something similar with the Enchantment and illusion school, but I am not sure what to name it. I was thinking of calling it Beguilement and then renaming the Beguiler. Any other ideas?

    You could call the school Trickery instead of Beguilement, and just leave the Beguiler as is.

    I like this idea, though I might go with 'Mesmerism' rather than Trickery or Beguilement.

    Call it SHENANIGANS!
    Trickery and Mesmerizing work fine.

    Spell Focus just became even better for Beguilers

    I approve of Mesmerism/mesmerizing. Trickery could get mixed up with the trickery domain.

    But then, we have Transmutation domain somewhere I believe, so maybe it won't be an issue...

    I...actually had a Wizard with Craft Shenanigans...


    That said, in response to the OP, perhaps Misdirection?
    Mind-bending?

    ...I'm honestly trying to think of something better, but I keep seeing a half-orc sorcerer using that school, and saying "Me no do nothing."
