Glossary

Hey, everyone. I am interested in compiling Castle Marrach and prosed-based terms to put into a glossary to be put up on the Castle Marrach Community Web Site that I am running. If everyone could take the time to post in this thread various terms they feel should be placed in the glossary I would be much appreciative. You can simply give the term or give both the term and the definition, if you please.

Thanks,
-Steve

P.S. These can include acronyms (e.g. CM, VP, SP, SC, etc.).

P.P.S. The site seems to be down at the moment. There is no glossary up yet, anyway. But he site should be back up again soon. I hope.
