Killing Tide (n.) - A dangerous blue gas that can spread across an area within seconds. Effects vary across species, ranging from simple poisoning from inhalation to liquification at contact. Was a popular tool for execution across the galaxy (mostly in the Hades' Haven and Graveyard Sectors), until the Valsick Empire Intergalactic Justice Code outlawed its use in 1000 PAE (Pre-Arrival Era).
Cleven (n.): A sash-like garment worn by nobilities of many planets within the Tiranqa Sector. This is primarily used within Adellhas, Rechius, and Hades. The amount of hexagons on the Cleven determine the status of the noble.
Wo', Ka', Ani', Ro', Aft', Pr' (adj.): Prefixes to names in the Adellhasian language. Wo' is used for workers, Ka' is used for nobility, Ani' is used for lovers, Ro' is used for foreigners, Pr' is used for children, and Aft' is used for those who have passed. Wo', Ka', Ro', Pr', and Aft' are not commonly used in Galactic English, but Ani' is still used by lovers as an affectionate nickname. All are loanwords from Adellhasian Language.
Dividium (n.): Gas used in Space Dividing Drives and space weaponry. It was discovered in 2061 by a probe that traveled to the outer reaches of the Milky Way. It provides fuel with extremely high efficiency, allowing it to be used by spaceships to travel extremely far distances in a short amount of time. It can also be superheated into a plasma beam.
Kalagarnium (n.): Solid used by melee weapons of the AGR and VE. It is named for Ka'Lagar, the ruler of Adellhas at the time of the AGR's arrival. It can be heated to around 100,000 degrees celsius. It is commonly applied as a way to melt armor that conventional heat weapons (such as the Tyranno's claws) cannot.
Cavistqa (n.): A term for inhabitable planets such as those in the mining sectors.
May the stars whose light gives the galaxy its life bring me salvation. (Phrase): A phrase used across the galaxy to emphasize that a statement is fully meant. Equivalent to "So help me God"
