A list of common words, phrases, and objects encountered in Orycto

Bobbing, bobbing his/her/their ears,: To flirt or behave in a coy manner.
- Originates from the practice of bucks weighting or tying back their ears in preparation for courting.
Brace: A clasp or clip worn on the ear or to pin ears together. Typically made of brass, gold, wood, or ceramics with carved designs.
- Initially a traditional adornment worn by bucks out of a superstition that they would act as charms to protect their partner during battle. Traditional braces would be worn on both ears for does at war and one ear for those who had died or gone missing. The most traditional carving is of a bun holding a shield.
Papernet: A primitive parachute made from alchemically treated paper.
Safety/Hook Belt, Boots, Gloves, Vest: Gear with attached hooks or clips designed to hook onto safety nets or rails on airships.
- While vests and belts are the most common and are often required PPE for any buns on the outer decks of ships some more adventurous individuals use hooks attached to the gloves or belt to enable them to rapidly maneuver around the ships.
Safety Nets: A net of rope or cable extended around the outside of most airship decks and dangling along underneath most ships for the purpose of catching or enabling any buns falling overboard to catch themselves.
Scrigg Shell: Something laughable, ridiculous, or of extremely low quality.
- Developed from a classist stereotype of poor farmers using scr1gg molts as roofing material.
Verdig Blade, Verdig Pole, Verdig Dagger, etc: Any blade shaped after the flower/pitcher of the verdig tree, having a long double edged body with a curved hook portion at the base.
- As the shape can be readily adapted to a wide range of handles, sizes, and proportions it becomes used in most any kind of weapon with an edged component. The hooked portion is doubled as both a hand-guard and a disarming tool. Design began from pole arms but was adapted into other designs(such as swords or knives) as they became popular.
