Correction: maggelity is the state of being *regularly* unpredictable. :-)

Ebisedic: [@bi"s@:dIk] (adj.) difficult of comprehension [from
_Ebisedian_, a constructed language which is actually quite simple, but
has an unusual grammatical system which tends to distort translations in
odd ways.]
Ferochromic: [F&r`o"k_hr`omIk] (adj.) involving colorful, other-worldly
phenomena [from Ferochromon, the constructed universe where the speakers
of Ebisedian dwell, reputed to be filled with such unusual phenomena as
the _3Ka'l3rii_ and the _3vyyi'_.]
