QUOTE(Koreku @ Oct 29 2007, 06:59 PM)  (and mage sounds very World of Warcraft-esque.) /endquote
Sorry to dissapoint you, but Mage has been around long, long before World of Warcraft. I mean no disrespect, but honestly... WoW got it from thousands of other things that used the word mage. It's kind of like saying Wizard or Sorcerer sounds very D+D -ish.
I apologize for the sidetracking, let's get back on topic (whoops) What I meant is, if you're talking to the average non-occultist, their main conception of magic is based on fantasy books and games...and in almost all games possessing a magic element, the term mage is either utilised, or in an online environment the term mage is as standard as, say, "lol."

Non Occultere,
