[Mist] Names for artifacts needed!

[Nick]

I already have the longsword 'Mistwalker', so we might want to modify Dreamwalker a bit. Dreamdancer perhaps?

How about 'Dance of Dreams' ?

[Mikko Lehtinen]

How about 'Dance of Dreams' ?

Even better! Thanks.

How about 'Dance of Dreams' ?

The dance is always danced above the hollow place, above the terrible abyss.

...and there's your flavour text right there. That's ... spinechilling.

I've got four new names. Only five left!

The Hard Leather Cap 'Cosmic Egg'
The Brigandine Armour of St Baltazar
The Cloak of the Peacock
The Kite Shield of the Sky-Spirits

[Mikko Lehtinen]

Maybe one more name, but I'm not sure. What do you think?

The Large Metal Shield of Twenty-Three Magicks

From a Mongolian myth. Atai Ulaan "made thirteen magicks dance on his palm and twenty-three magicks dance on his fingers".

Skultgard sorcerers are big on numerology.

I didn't take the time to read anything, so I hope I'm not way outta sync here. I saw your post and my brain said here you go: A main gauche (french for left hand) called Sinister Reminder (sinister also meaning left handed, i think)

The enemy is all, damn, that melee attack was rough! oh yeah, he has a left han~ *dead*

[Mikko Lehtinen]

Ha ha, I didn't know that!

Latin sinister = left handed

Alas, there's no main gauches in HoM anymore.

[Gorbad]

The Chainmail of Filigree and Shadow

Which also happens to be one of my favourite albums...


More gaps than chain, yet hypnotically enchanting patterns of steel encircle the shadows.

The Chainmail of Filigree and Shadow

A beautiful name.

I've never listened to the band. I'm listening to the album right now on YouTube and liking it!

The leather gloves could improve alchemy, maybe "of Paracelsus" or "of the Still".

Perhaps "Head of the Gorgo" for the remaining shield? Gorgon heads as warding symbols were apparently rather common in Greece. http://http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorgoneion

Alchemy is a good idea. Paracelcus is a slightly too well known name for my purposes... How about The Leather Gloves of Agathodaimon?

The Large Metal Shield 'Gorgon's Head' sounds good to me. Lots of fitting pictures on Google!

[Mikko Lehtinen]

I'm not perfectly happy with using the original owner's name with the gloves. A descriptive name would be better.

Lots of cool alchemical terms here.

The Set of Leather Gloves of the Lunar Chymist?

[Satyr]

The Set of Leather Gloves of the Lunar Chymist?

That's a nice link!

I guess it's a rather low level artifact. So maybe they could get a slight vulnerability to fire and be named "of the Lunatic Chymist" ? Though this might be a bit on the silly side...

The Set of Leather Gloves 'Sceptical Chymist'

(It's a book.)
