I like Earth's Grace. When I think of Earth magic, I think of earthquakes and things involving huge, cumbersome boulders, so using a word like grace is going against that expectation. When I hear it, I'll instantly be intrigued.


I think the place where the Trial is set already conveys the fact that it's not just earthquakes etc.

But your idea gave me another: what if I assign it individually for each? Earth's Grace, Flare's Wrath etc...

The downside? It's a huge pain. And in many cases, a lot gayer. Light's Shine? Eww.


I thought you were going for individual names to begin with. I didn't know they were all going to be the element + Essence/whatever.

Edit:
I don't want to push you toward anything you don't want to do or sidetrack you from your vision of how this will work, but I kinda like coming up with stuff like this and I was bored, so I came up with some names, and I'm going to share them. I'm not trying to say in any way that this what you should do. Anyway, here's what I got:

Earth's Grace
Wind's Zeal
Water's Reserve
Fire's Solitary
Dark's Accord
Light's Wrath
Thunder's Void

Nope, you gave the idea of making it individual. I would like to, but my arsenal doesn't look like it contains seven non-redundant and still nice sounding words to do it individually.

So, I am accepting suggestions.

Rather than just think of random words that sound cool, what I did in my previous post was think of attributes that I thought might be interesting. For example, for wind, I came up with the idea of associating it with persistence, and then after looking around on dictionary.com, I decided to go with zeal.

Ah right. Why did I never thought of such a strategy before? The suggestions are nice enough too.

Alright, Earth and Wind, get. I'll be filling the blanks later on, but suggestions are always welcome.

That's really strange. I check the lounge almost daily and your post didn't show up until now.

Anyways, I think we should be done soon. Maybe several days.

I've had trouble in the past, but it's been a while since I've tried making any big posts.

Actually a user and I just addressed the problem and placed a notification on the feedback section. Here it is in detail since I apparently am not the only one having problems with it.

Probably silly to ask but is the contest going to end anytime soon?

Finally!

It's been a while, but I finally finished the next Age of Anarchy story. And so the first thing I do is come on here to brag about it. Of course, I'm not ready to share it yet. It needs a loooooot of editing, and I suspect it will be long and painful, but it feels good to get the first draft done. If I remember correctly, the first thing I wrote for this was back near the beginning of last year before I had even finished Knife in the Dark.

Also, I'm halfway done with the next part of Strike. I hope to have that done in the near future as well. Maybe.
