bandh

A type of protest mobilisation commonly used in India. A bandh is a combination of a strike and a shutdown/blockade. Participants refrain from economic activity and usually set up roadblocks to "enforce" the bandh and as a kind of rally.

Bandhs may be called by any kind of organisation, not only trade unions or work-related groups - for instance, political parties, human rights groups, campaigning groups, women's groups, youth groups, etc, often call bandhs to protest various issues. They are usually regional rather than sectoral. Bandhs vary in duration from hour-long shutdowns to "indefinite" bandhs which can go on for months.

In support of a three-day bandh called by a coalition of 32 groups calling for repeal of anti-terrorism laws which have led to human rights violations, protesters shut down most of central Imphal. Women and youths blocked roads with logs and burning tyres before being lathi-charged by police.

Accusing the local government of corruption, Congress supporters observed a four-hour bandh yesterday.

Protesting the arrest of a prominent Hindu seer, Shiv Sena have launched a bandh call across Uttar Pradesh.

Nadziranim

Singular Nadziran. Evil wizard-creatures in the employ of the Darklords in the Lone Wolf series. Their evil powers include the ability to distort perceptions and change people's memories to drive them mad, as illustrated with the character Qinefer in the Legends of Lone Wolf novels.

They appear as dark shadows containing multicoloured flickering lights.

Nadziranim are among the most powerful of the creatures of the Darklands.

aurumvorax

Vicious six-legged weasel-like creature with fur made of actual gold. Beware! It's a high-level monster and is a lot more vicious than it looks, although it's a great find for AD&D players more interested in treasure hoarding than adventuring.

"aurum" sounds like a Latin word root and is adapted from the Latin word for gold. "vorax" is probably just invented (though again it has a definite Latin sound).

Watch out! There's an aurumvorax hiding under your sofa!

I let the aurumvorax loose in the classroom, and everyone ran away (hee hee)
