I'll be real with you guys, Dammerlichtreiter does not roll off the tongue at all. What are we supposed to call it when we're talking about it casually, cus I'm not calling it that. DLT? Dammer? Reiter? Licht? Josh? I need a snappier name.

Eye doesn't mean constant surveillance. It just means extra paranoia when he sees all the stuff we've cooked up. It's not a serious concern of mine, but I will say that "full trust" does not exist in the Grey Order. If we used the Coin to trick someone from the Grey Order into being one hundred percent certain that we've said is the truth, that in itself would cause an immovable object to collide into an unstoppable force. That gives me the impression that full trust isn't a thing.

Oh I see, I just generally assume that all LMs are operating at high levels suspicion of their fellows even since Boney made that list of every Grey LM with descriptors. It is just the cost of doing business, you do not fully trust them because you know they are as competent as you and you would not trust yourself from the outside. As an example would we be entirely fine with say Starke having read the Liber Mortis?
 
I kind of want to call it the 'Knight Light' but that doesn't quite fit, nor does 'Battle-Ready Weaver'... 'Mathilde's Battle-Ready Silver Savage' for the triple whammy? Ah wait there we go, hopefully this'll make Teclis laugh.

[X] Mathilde's Silver Savage

Honestly, I've been workshopping a "Götterdämmerung" pun for weeks now, and I've still got nothing that sounds cool and practical.

"Here, let me try something," you call out to them, and with concentration and a few syllables and gestures you conjure an Illusion around yourself, covering yourself with an image of an Orcish Shaman. "Oi'm gonna wallop you one with these here Waaagh magics," you say with a frown, trying to fit your mouth around the strange accent of the Orcish-Reikspiel pidgin. "Ya gits," you add for good measure.

Choose Dämmerreiter!
But seriously it perfectly fits into whfs theme of names coming from british nerds that don't know a lick of german. Seriously, who in thier right mind would want to live in Menschenfresserhafen? (Man-devourer harbor)

Id be very careful with that in the empire lol.
 
[X] The Twilight Knight
[X] The Knight of Twilight

I can't decide which sounds better. "Twilight Knight", I think, because the rhyme is pleasing to me, but "Knight of Twilight" can be abbreviated to "KT", or "Katie".

Approval votes:
[X] The Hunter's Ruin
[X] Knightbringer

Also you guys are really lucky this is a low consequence vote, because this time tomorrow I'll be on a 12-hour flight, and I will probably be even more insufferable than I normally am. Gods, I'm going to be crawling up the walls by the end of it.

Ah, a brief look into what might have been. Amazing.

How about...

[X] Wroth Wrath Wraith

A wraith is said to appear before a person's death so appearing before a wizard right as a cavalry charge is coming is suitably wraithlike and the apparition seems to have some influence from a rather angry fellow so using wroth and wrath to describe it just makes sense. 'Wroth Wrath Wraith' is kind of a tongue twister and the apparition has that 'Live Laugh Love' energy to it y'know.

If you're going for Ablaut reduplication then it should be Wraith Wrath Wroth.
 
[X] Dämmerlichtreiter
[X] Yarkhazhunki
[X] The Dusk Rider

More or less the same meaning, in Reikspiel, Khazalid, or English.
