Hi all,
I'm having a Little trouble naming one of my wizards. But first let me tell you a bit more about my wizards. In my world there are five wizards. They are humans with graet magical power. which is extrordinary, why? Because humans do not posses magic in my world. Though humans have the ability to learn the ways of magic and there are mages and ilusionists among them. But they do not use "real" magic.
Now, back to the wizards. I made some naming rules for the wizards. First off, they have their given names. But these are not their real names. Their real names or magic names, so to speak, are reavieled to them later in their lives.
Secondly, their real names always start with an "M" and have "th" in them for males, "v" for females.
Thirdly, they are given a title by their familiars.
Here is what I have so far:
Merlinthius, the First. (yes this is after Merlin. Cliche! open for other sugestions)
Masthin, of the Olden.
Mairth of the Red Dawn.
Meave of the Wandering Sky.
now the problem is the dark/evil wizard. Or at least she is considered evil by the other wizards because she uses dark magic. She is also called the Necromancer by the commoners. This because she also raises the dead from their graves. Not much is known about her at this time. except that she is pretty, has black hair, has a raven as her familiar and that she is the great grand daughter of Mairth. (wizards are some what immortal...) Oh, and she is about three hundred years old.
I had thought to call her Minnerva. which has the right feeling to it. But something does not feel right about it... and I still don't have a title for her.
Let me know what you think...
