FAQ man May 7, 2012 Share May 7, 2012 To me "host" sounds completely demeaning. Why not just call it a person with a tulpa and leave it at that? Not everything has to have a fancy word for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish May 7, 2012 Share May 7, 2012 But tulpamancer sounds cool~ That or we could go full on Stargate SG-1 and call us the Goa'uld Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uguubee May 7, 2012 Share May 7, 2012 Generally you just refer to the person as 'the individual', in most psychology, so I don't see why we should adopt the '-mancer' suffix from psuedo-magicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B_P May 7, 2012 Share May 7, 2012 That or we could go full on Stargate SG-1 and call us the Goa'uld I'd think of us more as the Tok'ra. Though, both of them still call their hosts 'hosts'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qookie May 7, 2012 Author Share May 7, 2012 "mancy" does imply magickal traditions and all that, but also speaks "to speak" or "to divine/predict". So I suppose it's fitting as a playful term. I'll add host and tulpamancer; they're by no means obligatory. I should also add "parroting" and "puppeting/puppeteering". ちぇえええええええええええええええええええええええええええええ～ん！ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orq9000 May 7, 2012 Share May 7, 2012 Nah. Seriously. I think Host is ok for conversation, and tulpamancer for creepy t-shirt. glossary.png ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orq9000 May 7, 2012 Share May 7, 2012 Oh. And Imaginary Friend? I know it's like Servitor, but I think it'll be nice to mention it somehow. Many newcomer will surely use this term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
