n. The nickname of drummer, Thomas Tierney and name of local Rutherford NJ band Orpheon. The nickname is derived as a joke from local single artist, Chris Reyes, better known as Kail. Thomas was recognized from Orpheon one day in gym class by Kail and the nickname was formed. The band long since broke up but the name stuck as a souvenir of the band and its local contributions...which were limited.
"yo Orpheon!" -Kail

"you guys playing at the next show at the library?" -Kail
"dude i told you 3 minutes ago, the band broke up last year"- Orpheon

Orphonic Orchestra 

A melodic rock band formed in 2001. Debut CD released in 2005, with a follow up 6 song demo in 2006. Features a classically trained female vocalist/front-woman, a violist (back-up singer), bassist, guitarist (also back-up singer), and drummer. Very cool group. Influences come from Johann Sebastian Bach, Silverchair, and Nightwish.
The chicks in Orphonic Orchestra are totally hot. Three of them in the five piece band. The guys are great, but the ladies are where it's at, 'cause they're not only talented, but nice to look at, especially from the male perspective.

He is the main character of Sorcerous Stabber Orphen anime. Orphen is a wandering "kuromajutsushi"(Black Sorcerer) who travels from town to town seemingly without any real purpose. He wears the dragon pendant which marks him as a graduate of the famous magic school, the Kiba no Tou(Fang Tower) but it's a bit hard to believe that this wandering bum could really be such a talented sorcerer, especially when he can barely pay his bills. He is a moneylender, and at some point in the past lent Volcan some money which Volcan has yet to pay back. Therefore, Orphen shamelessly forces the two brothers to do what he wants them to. He thinks it's his right to torture them, since they haven't paid him back yet. At the beginning of the anime, he has been staying in Totokanto for about a year, "teaching" Magik sorcery in exchange for room and board at the inn. He's keeping an eye on the Sword of Bart Andels, which is being kept in the Everlasting mansion, since he knows the dragon Bloody August will be after the sword.

I feel sorry for the orphones as their parents think that checking the latest updates and news are more important than them.

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
