the line protruding from the bottom right of a capital 'Q'
In my 9th grade math class, I had this teacher who went to high school with this guy who was really smart. He would put vocabulary words on our math tests and one day we were all bored in class, so this kid asked the teacher "what is the thing on a Q called?" The math teacher told him to go see his friend and ask him. The kid came back and said "He does know it. It is an 'unctual'."

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."
