I don't think Alchemy is too bad a name for now. Perhaps just Transmutation is sufficient, but let's not get into another Bliss and Horror over this. We'll just use a fitting name for being able to turn a spoon into gold. --[[User:Piemanmoo|Piemanmoo]] 01:37, 25 September 2007 (EDT)

* Although it is the first thing I thought of as well, alchemy is defiantly not the right name, it would be like calling a power "chemistry" or "spiritualism". "The Midas Touch" is the second thing I thought of, but I don't think that is right ether. "Aurification" or "transmutation" could work. I do like having info on the powers as soon as possible but I think it needs a better name. -[[User:Level|Lөv]][[User talk:Level|ө]][[Special:Contributions/Level|l]] 02:36, 25 September 2007 (EDT)

Revision as of 06:51, 25 September 2007

Whoever added this page, it is WAY too early to give it a name. All we saw was a quick change to gold. It could be anything beyond that. --Riddler 22:11, 24 September 2007 (EDT)

  • Anddddd if you wanna get technical, what we saw was Elemental transmutation.--Riddler 22:13, 24 September 2007 (EDT)
    • Agree, I'm not sure I would identify the power as alchemy quite yet. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 22:39, 24 September 2007 (EDT)
      • Alchemy? Wow, I was about to come and suggest Elemental Transmutation. "The ability to alter chemical elements, changing them from one substance to another by rearranging the atomic structure". He changed that sliver spoon into gold, that screams Elemental Transmutation.--The Empath 22:54, 24 September 2007 (EDT)
        • "IF" this powers ends up 'only' being the ability to transmute metal into gold, then that specific action is known as Chrysopoeia. Alchemy is a common term used for it also, but Alchemy is a broad general term that includes many other disciplines besides gold transmutation. It's too early to define this one. Need more epis. --HiroDynoSlayer (talk) 09/24/2007 23:31 (EST)
