Mild Speculation

Primal= Rites

would work for "spells" of the Druid/Shaman and the BArbarian I think

Oh, good point re: powers.

I like primal = rites.

 

[Lord Xtheth]

Psionic = Manifestations
Primal = Fetish
Ki = Foci/ Focus

Is shadow going to be a real source?
Shadow = Gestures (?)
Elemental = Incarnations

I have no idea what other sources there may or may not be in the future, but in my little world, these sound right.

 

[neobolts]

Shadow Incantations
Ki Techniques
Psionic Disciplines
Primal Rites
Elemental Attunements

When I first read this, I read this as "Maybe for Shadow they'll call them at-will umbrellas and daily umbrellas." That made me laugh out loud. Very hard. For about five seconds. Imagining those at-will umbrellas...

It's pretty wet outside; storm came out of nowhere.

It'd sure be nice to have an at-will umbrella.

I like Talents for psions and techniques for Ki. The others I dont really care so much, actually I dont care much about Ki either but Psionics better be sweet

Devotions

Thats what my 2nd ed Book of lairs, from basic Ad&D 2nd ed yellow box, called the powers wielded by the hauns: inflict pain, telekinesis, etc.

Would psionic "devotions" appeal?

 

[andarilhor]

Ki = TEchniques
Primal = Fetishes or Instincts or Gifts
Psionic = Disciplines
Shadow = mysteries
Elemental = Evocations or Invocations

Social [homemade source power] = Boons

 

[No Name]

Disciplines would also be a good match for Ki.

I also like Primal rites. Good call.

Maybe WotC will use some of these suggestions.

Oh yeah, you think umbrellas was bad, the first thing that popped into my head for Shadow was goths.

"I use my daily goth 'Black Lipstick Kiss of Gloom'."

I really like Primal Rites. Primal is the only power source my group couldn't think of anything good for, but Rites nailed it IMO.

Many of the suggestions in this thread are great. I really hope Wizards doesn't end up picking something ridiculous instead.
