Sorcerer, what does "DCP" mean?

The symbol in the middle is "S", the text in the ring says "Conjure, Shock, Alter" and the symbols in the circle are "D C P"... I think.
Any idea what the three letters mean? I looked at the name of the skill lines from the beta and apparently they are the same as they are now, so I don't think it's related to skill lines. I can't think of what else DCP or any combination of the three would mean in this game.

    I guess it's simply for Daedric Curse/Prey. Just like Firerune has a big F as the main letter in the middle.

    I do think it's nice though that daedric font is utilized so often, and mostly not just as random gibberish. There's actually a big section on UESP about it:

    I believe this is the symbol used in daedric curse and the daedric minefield. Does it show up anywhere else?

    Yeah, it would be reasonable to assume it's Daedric Curse Prey, if anything. It's a rune that targets and sticks to the enemy, marking them as the "prey". (Not to mention, it's the name of the spell.)
