mbbrdi was exactly what I'd put---but it was in the LaTeX declaration 
(and the additions that needed to be made to the .fd file) that I'd come 
to a halt.

Would DeclareFixedFont{\tit}{T1}{mbb}{m}{tli}{<size>} do it?

For the roman titling I use tl---is tli an admissable latex declaration?

No, but I have made it a shape variation.

Yes, I'd rather not go that way if possible. So can I just invent a new 
shape tli?

It's more a matter of knowing what the LaTeX programmers think that's 
the problem.
