That....doesn't make conspectus a title. As of now it only points to them being specific studies of certain sorceries. You're conflating alias and title

Haima is also literally used to refer to the founder of it by name. Haima is a conspectus. We're arguing for nothing here, and over semantics. And yes, it is a title. Alias and title are synonymous here. As is also their designation and role in the academy, and what impact they had on it.
yes
tho you did say it wasn't his real name
we can deduce that by just reading the description of his two spells
Yes, as in, a study of sorcery. Not his title. His title is Adjudicator. The same way Lusat and Azur were Grandmaster and Rennala was Queen. Conspectus was a title for none of them. Whether they named their conspectus after themselves or an alias is irrelevant. It doesn't make conspectus a title.
Probably not. Since we know it's a conspectus, and that's used as an alias or title for the founder of it, and because of that we know it's also used as an alias or title. It's not rocket science, and there's no need to over-complicate it.
His titles are both Haima AND adjudicator. Just like Lusat is both Grandmaster and Olivinus. They had more than one.
Lazuli for Rennala. Olivinus for Lusat. Karolos for Azur. Haima for Haima or whatever his real name is. Hierodas for Wilhelm. They each had a conspectus relevant to the type of study they started, and that's what their study was named after. And that's what they were also named after by their branch of the academy.
It most certainly does. As they are referred by their respective conspectus as an alias or title. I am not sure why we're even splitting hairs over this now.
This game has gone from "Oh god its the hardest of all Soulslikes" to "Absolutely broken over the community's knees" with shocking rapidity

Not a fan of the Rex picture. His face reminds me of Melodias.
that's really good.
I can beat it in a fight.
No, it is his name. You keep saying the wording isn't important but it is. It doesn't call it the Haima conspectus like the others it says Conspectus of Haima, The Academy's adjudicator. In this case the wording is clearly giving us his name and not the study of his conspectus but we can assume they're one and the same in this case because of the names of the spells.
No, his title is Adjudicator. This is just you conflating the terms again
Theres nothing that suggest Olivinus is his name or title, just his study of magic
Yes
Nope
It really isn't. They could have named the conspectus whatever it doesn't have to be an alias or a title. Thats you conflating words with each other.
It because you implied being "Conspectus" is what gave Rennala authority of the academy so we started arguing about the meaning of conspectus
