No one is making words off limits. Paizo isn't preventing (or trying to prevent) anyone from saying or writing "phylactery." It's an editorial choice.Seems like much ado about nothing. Making words off limits is dumb.

On behalf of Dave Pirner, have you considered "Soul Asylum"?Not fond of soul cage either. Are they imprisoning their own soul? I suppose they're kind of keeping it from escaping to the afterlife. Soul vessel or even soul jar work better for me than soul cage.
some have pointed out that using the word seems problematic<<
Yes, I would rather a new word be made for the item than a description (like soul cage / vessel). Though I do not personally mind the current word either.Nice! But I’m just not digging either term. I think the old one needs dropping from this use but dang I wish there was another that is usable.
No, but I have seen them perform live in a small venue. They put on a good show.On behalf of Dave Pirner, have you considered "Soul Asylum"?
Personally, as a Jew, I'm not. It's not at the same level as, say, stat-ting up Moses as a wizard or something.Has anyone claimed to be offended or harmed by liches having phylacteries prior to the announcement? Use of religious terminology can be offensive, but I would think that if this one was considered offensive it would have been stated by some one some time in the past 45 years.
I haven't seen them play in over a quarter century. IIRC, I saw them either at Bowery Ballroom or Roseland.No, but I have seen them perform live in a small venue. They put on a good show.
In my case, it was in either 1990 or 1991 on the Beloit College campus on a little patio behind the 609 Emerson dorm. There was a muddy mosh pit right in front of them packed with drunk college students celebrating Spring Day.I haven't seen them play in over a quarter century.
