Personally, I try to avoid using both Light Armor and Heavy Armor.

I know this isn't really helping you pick a name, but I suggest losing Heavy Armor or Light Armor (your preference, I suggest light armor, because your character sounds sneaky), and using both blade and marksman.

How about Silent Spellslinger or Thaumaturgic Thief? (I have little experience with naming, sorry)

I'm not gonna lie, those names are really cool...but they wouldn't fit in the limited length that you get.

And yes, you should lose Heavy Armor for sure then you could have Marksman and Blade.

Also, I think the name Darkstalker is really cool for a class.

Agh, sorry. That shows my true noobiness at naming. I knew Thaumaturgic was pushing it. :lol:

Yes, I would definetly drop heavy armor, no sense in having both types, and heavy will just hamper your (apprent) desire to sneak.

As for a name, this class is almost identical to my Warlock (Sans the heavy armor instead of block). I'd also think something like a Shadowmage would work. I dunno, Im tired. :lol:
... and you know, I don't actually have an Orc character.

How about "Adventurer"? If you have a custom class based on picking 7 choice skills, and you're not role-playing, does it matter what the name of the class is?

I mostly name my classes infiltrator because that is 1. what they usually are and 2. sounds cool.

Alright, I'll play nice.

It's a bizarro combination of skills. It's almost like you decided to give us a challenge to find something that really fit the description well, especially with the two armors, plus sneak/illusion for avoiding damage. I'm sure I could come up with a harder set, but coming up with something satisfying is tough here.

The alchemy+sneak+illusion+weapon skill suggests an assassin-y character. Light armor fits with that; heavy armor not nearly so much. Conjuration is also an odd fit, though, as if once discovered, you'd rather wall up and let your minion work instead....I imagine it's not there for summoning Bound Armor. So a character that is:
* Dark and sneaky
* Well-protected
* Uses pets

Sounds a *little* like the Everquest-ian Shadow Knight, but with a more stealthy variant. I'm going to call this character a Dark Rogue.

I need some suggestions for names too Iliked the sound of spellsinger (not spellslinger) mentioned above but my guy isn't really a mage. This is what I would like suggestions in regards to - 1.Bosmer, 2.graceful/agile swift kller the kind that you see in films sort of mythodical and 3. high up within wood elven ranks. Any ideas?
