- Big endian (a very powerful NPC)
- Hardware abstraction (a spell that makes all the stuff disappears)
- Obfuscation (invisibility spell)
- Multiplexing (ability to cast several spells as one)
- Dangling reference (when wrong information is given by somebody)
- Curiously Recurring Template Pattern (basically crop circles)
- Pure virtual method (anything somebody learned but will never use)
- Diamond inheritance (when someone in the party dies and all of their money is spread accross the others)
