What do these words all have in common? I learned them as a 12 or 13 year old playing Everquest and peppered them into my essays for the rest of my academic career. Got an A on every paper I ever wrote that was graded by lazy English teachers who were wowed by big words. Worked until I got to college. Resulted in an insane score on the vocab portion of the GRE; at least 2 of the words above were on the test.

That's honestly one of the biggest things I missed when playing other games throughout the years - the words of EQ's bestiary and spells. They really got that right in my eyes.
