[Superfluous Crow]

We could throw some theurges and magi in for good measure to make the titles a bit more heterogenous.

[Seraph]

AD&D artifacts sound good to me.  Deck of Many Things, Staff of the Magi, The Hand of Vecna, Axe of the Dwarvish Lords....

Yeah, that's an excellent improvement.

Let's just call everybody after different species of turtles. Or cabbages. Though on second thought, there probably is not too many cabbage species.

Actually, there are. Crucifers include brussel sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower, turnips, mustards and cresses, just to name the most common. Quality cabbages could easily cover the spread even narrowing it down to the genus Brassiceae! (Hell, most of the ones I mentioned are actually the same species. . .)

You'd be surprised. Cabbages are one of the many cultivars of the species Brassica oleracea. Other cultivars include kale, collard greens, Chinese broccoli, cauliflower, Romanesco broccoli, broccoflower, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, kohlrabi, and broccoli. People often use dogs as a good example of genetic diversity within a species, but I think B. oleracea cultivars have breeds of dogs beat by a mile.

There are several closely related species in the genus Brassica as well.

Okay, there's a lot of cabbages out there, I get it.
(who'd have expected so many cabbage scholars on a RPG site... *grumble*)

[Magnus Pym]

Haha!

I like most of Crow's ideas. The schools of magic and plagues ones especially.

Cabbage's funny, but seems somewhat ''used''. I think we need something new, a spark!

[Elemental_Elf]

[Hibou]

I like the planetary bodies idea and the Cadaverous Earth titles. Could the use of a hierarchy from someone's setting possibly also serve the purpose of getting more people to read them?

[Steerpike]

Alternate Cadaverous Earth titles:

Zombie
Mori
Geist
Haunt
Ghul
Bricoleur
Eidolon
Shade
Revenant

or

Piranha-Rat
Marrowmoth
Fleshtree
Leechkin
Waxborn
Thanatosphinx
Warworm
Banehulk
Gorgefly

EDIT: Or Clockwork Jungle titles (have we had these before?)?

Cog
Tahr Hunter
Gheen Hemomancer
Rogue Iskite
Umbril Telavai
Fleshless Legionnaire
Abomination
Aras Tay
Elder Wyrm

[LD]

I like the Clockwork Jungle suggestions.

I don't quite get why Gorgefly would be the top CE level? I thought a Banehulk was more frightening? Or are the titles not in any particular order?

[Ninja D!]

I'm not much for the actor idea (sorry). Seems a bit opaque and unrelated to the site.
(the last argument might fall a bit short considering our current harlot titles :p )

Those aren't related to the site, just its members.  :P
