Das Magiesystem von Ultima VI – Übersetzen oder nicht?

Ich grübel nun doch, ob ich das Magiesystem, das ich bisher komplett Englisch gelassen habe, eindeutschte oder nicht. Ich weiß einfach nicht, was besser ist: unvollkommen übersetzen oder doch besser Englisch lassen?

Zur Erinnerung: die Schwierigkeit die besteht, ist die vorgegebene Länge der Begrifflichkeiten. Der deutsche Begriff dees Zauberspruchs darf also niemals länger sein, als der original englische. Das funkioniert teilweise ganz gut, z.B. bei

Ignite (Anzünden)
Zünden

zum Teil mehr schlecht als recht:
Magic Arrow (Magisches Geschoss)
Magi. Pfeil

und zum Teil wird richtig mies:
Harm (Verwunden)
Wund (als Imperativ zu verstehen *hust*)

Ich pack hier mal drunter, was mir so an Möglichkeiten einfällt. Wenn Ihr eine Meinung habt (machen oder lassen) teilt Sie mir gerne per Mail oder Kommentar mit. Danke 🙂

Bei den Reagenzien herrscht übersetzungsmäßig noch eitel Sonnenschein:


mandrake root | spider silk
Alraunwurzel. | Spinn.seide

nightshade | garlic
N.schatten | Knobl.
Nachtschat | Knblch

black pearl | ginseng
Schwrzperle | Ginseng

blood moss | sulfurous ash
Blutmoos.. | Schwefelasche

Bei den Sprüchen sieht es schon schlechter aus…
