Sic Parvis Magna 

"Greatness from small beginnings."

Commonly known as a phrase from Sir Francis Drake in the Uncharted series for the PlayStation 4.

Sir Francis Drake was knighted by the Queen and given a ring inscribed with the motto "Sic Parvis Magna" on the outside of it. Nathan Drake found the ring and kept it on a necklace, it'd later become a clue into helping him find Sir Francis' empty coffin off the coast of Panama, and it'd also help him find El Dorado.
"Nathan Drake wears a ring around his neck with the letters Sic Parvis Magna etched into it. Do you know what it means?"

"It's Latin, and it means 'Greatness from small beginnings'."

The word seems to be an original construct of Square Enix, as searches reveal nothing other than FFTA2-related results. May or may not have anything to to with 'parivar'.

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."
