Threndual Posted August 23, 2013 Share #26 Posted August 23, 2013 You should share your new ideas anyway. You can't come in here saying you have them and then leave us hanging. Actually it turns out I can but no, the others are either cheesy or I took them from other games/books/films, I like The D.A.R.C. most of all myself, I`d be glad if it was chosen, its not often I have creative moments Link to comment
Yuria Posted August 23, 2013 Share #27 Posted August 23, 2013 hmmm what about the "Scions of fate"? or Scion of x >_> Link to comment

Threndual Posted August 23, 2013 Share #31 Posted August 23, 2013 Tell you what, i`ll add three more tommorow then? I say tommorow because for me its midnight at the moment <- Welsh / British, so i`m mighty tired and my head feels like its screwed on backwards, damn time zones being all different :frustrated: Link to comment
Gideon Aryeh Posted August 23, 2013 Share #32 Posted August 23, 2013 To me, Magic Sword sounds of kind... tacky? I couldn't imagine L'yhta, Garryson, and Ashren sitting down to hold some kind of official meeting going "Now that everyone is here, this begins the first meeting of Magic Sword." Unless we plan on holding our secret meetings in a tree house. As in Operation Magic Sword? Am I the only one into Tom Clancy? Or ex military? Link to comment
Sinner2000 Posted August 23, 2013 Share #33 Posted August 23, 2013 XI:7 Mysterium Blades of Nald'thal 7 Blades of Myst Icon: Twin swords crossing to form an X on a backdrop of an Ivory tower.. 5 other blades surrounding, pointing outwards like rays from the sun in the BoN icon. This opens up a RP element that you could have 7 overseers (or swords) for the grand company leaders, two representatives from each company, and one grand overseer to consolidate power. If you so wish.. hope that helps! edit: reading through the descriptions the LS sound really interesting, wondering if I could join in perhaps..? My toon is a Duskwight archer so might fit with the Blades... Link to comment
Kismet Posted August 24, 2013 Share #34 Posted August 24, 2013 When I saw this thread, I instantly thought of the Fates from Greek mythology. There's Clotho, the spinner, who spins the thread of life... Lachesis, the measurer, who chooses the lot in life one will have and measures off how long it is to be... And finally Atropos, she who cannot be turned, who cuts the thread of life with her shears. I think the Fates are like XI:7, the Mysterium, and the Blades respectively. I can't come up with an actual name based on this allusion, but perhaps it will be nice creative fuel to add to the flames for someone else! I really like the symbolism behind Magic Sword, but the name itself is too corny for my tastes. Eorzean/Hydaelyn Hearts is also rather waist-deep in cheese sauce territory... Sorry, but that's just my two cents. Link to comment

Goodeburger Posted August 24, 2013 Share #36 Posted August 24, 2013 Being a history buff and such I'd say: The Triple Entente! But don't listen to me, I'm hyped up on Monster. Link to comment
Havoc Snow Posted August 24, 2013 Share #37 Posted August 24, 2013 The only name I could come up with is way too long. The Consortium of Merchants, Mercenaries, and Mages. CoM³ It's even longer when it's typed out then when it was in my head... Link to comment

Momoji Momochi Posted August 24, 2013 Share #39 Posted August 24, 2013 Arcana Machina is something that just came out of my head. Runic Concord? Link to comment

Threndual Posted August 24, 2013 Share #41 Posted August 24, 2013 As I said I would, three more suggestions even if they arent that good: The Eorzean Free Company Alliance - T.E.F.C.A. Underground Research And Defense - U.R.A.D. The Eorzean Discovery and Protection Ops - T.E.D.A.P.O And just for the sake of it one more: Modern Research, Serve and Defend Operations- M.R. S.A.D Operations The last one I think is kinda cool, I mean nobody would have any idea what your talking about if you referred to your alliance as "Mr sad" in conversation so you could keep it secret if you didnt particulerly want it to become common knowledge, they may assume your talking about a charity or something! Though I still like my earlier idea of D.A.R.C. better Link to comment
