- noun The words written on wiz's tombstone in the Graveyard. The set of tombstones (plus the urn) comprise the only permanent objects in the game which bear wizzes' names, and therefore constitute its long-time achievement list. Not everyone who is entitled to a tombstone asks for one, though (NB: this doesn't mean they won't get one!). Because the personae mentioned are immortal, rather than deceased, the term epiphet is preferred by some. See also wrapper.
