Glossary

[Steve S]

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

[Steve S]

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

[Steve S]

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.
