Stephen Palgrave 

The main protagonist in the early 1880's novel, "A Heart Among the Heartless," Stephen Palgrave was a poverty stricken british man during hard times who had to choose between having his heart cut out by a corrupt doctor, or forfeit the life of a foster child he had never seen before. The story, being mostly accurate in historical nature, takes a rather fictional turn for the worse when Satan, the Devil himself, sends demons to murder the evil doctor. The story ends gruesomely with Stephen adopting the mystery child, but losing his heart.
"It's your choice, Stepehn Palgrave, I need a heart, I need a heart among the heartless."

Dr. Heiss, "A Heart Among the Heartless."

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."
