Stupid Question: do you need individual e-mails for each DW account?

Back on track:

I need a screenname for a "mental healer" kinda of template? and another for a power-copier? Any ideas?

You don't need individual emails. All of my many, many journals have the same email address.

For a power-copier, I like 'genie-see-genie-do' or some variation on that. Or anything with 'mirror' in it, if you can combine it with something about their personality for a second word. For a mental healer, how about psycheanalysis, or smoothpsyche (that's meant as a pun on smooth sailing, but I'm not sure it works in text form)? Or ego_medico, which is Latin for "I heal (others)" and is an ego pun.

That is perfect, maybe using "mage" or "witch" instead of "genie", thank you.

Psycheanalysis sounds like a telepath or a mental-sense kinda of person to me. Smoothpsyche doesn't quite fit either, I like the sound, but makes me think of smooth criminal.

I am attempted to use "Superego_Medico" for maximum pun-nesss xD

thanks, now I just need a player 2.

I'd volunteer myself, but I just really have not had a lot of time lately. Maybe some other time?

Sure, thanks! I am not going anywhere. I will try poking other people about it.

For the power-copier: echomage, mirrormage, copycast (like copycat but with cast like a spell? I'm not entirely sure how powers in this universe work), power_pirate (like copying without permission? if that works with their personality?)
For the mind-healer: psychacea, psychiasthai, psychakeia (all from psych and patched together with panacea or -iatric from various bits of etymology) maybe?

Not sure if you still need these or if these would be useful but I thought I might as well put them out here.

"copycast" is thoroughly adorable.

My type of magic works rather similar to witchcraft or ingotry, except that you can have multiple powers and you spend "mana" to use it. There are other traits, but those are the most important.

That said, I really tempted to snatch "copycast" anyway even if I use another screenname for original flavor Temperance :B

Power_Pirate sounds sort of 80's, which isn't saying that it is bad, but I feel it would need a alt for... dunno, a fantasy Earth where the alt is a pirate? It is cute actually.

I actually already already registered Superego-medico http://superego-medico.dreamwidth.org/ but those sound cool too... I might use them for other alts, but I haven't even played once yet (>_>) so I will reserve the use of alts for now. Psychiasthai sounds sort of elfic to me.
