Maquisard
Like Maquis, but "ard."
That didn't really help, did it?
Well, the word Maquis means:
A dense growth of small trees and shrubs in the Mediterranean area.
But that's not the definition we're looking at.
The Maquis was a French underground organisation during world war II. A Maquisard was a member of this organisation.
So how're you gonna use this in your life?
"That person was quite ... Maquisard ..."
You may as well say:
"That person offered quite the resemblance to a member of the French underground resistance group of World War II."
Ahh, how succinct our stolen language is...

Sesquipedalian
Ses! Quip! A-dallian!
And what says thee?
(of a word or words) "long; polysyallabic"
"Pertaining to or given to the use of overly long words"
Personally, I prefer the second definition, (despite the fact that it's logically incorrect to prefer one of two definitions when both meanings are contextually applicable,) because it's verbosity lends itself to it's own definition.

Nightmares
The Mara of the Night is sitting on my chest,
Talking to my ear; not letting me to rest,
But I whisper to him back,
A mellowing attack,
Don't leave me alone; whisper to me more,
I understand your musings, though you leave men poor,
I know you are a demon,
And I know that you are strong,
That's why you whisper to my ear,
Because that you are bored,
My mind is falling loose apart,
But my nightmares hold it close,
I know that only I can save,
The life that I once had,
So I tell you Mara of the Night,
You are great; not all that bad.
Talking to my ear; not letting me to rest,
But I whisper to him back,
A mellowing attack,
Don't leave me alone; whisper to me more,
I understand your musings, though you leave men poor,
I know you are a demon,
And I know that you are strong,
That's why you whisper to my ear,
Because that you are bored,
My mind is falling loose apart,
But my nightmares hold it close,
I know that only I can save,
The life that I once had,
So I tell you Mara of the Night,
You are great; not all that bad.

TRoL the Third: Argonian Pincushion
Lordy scrambled around the place - tackling pirates and fumbling masts in a desperate attempt to jump the plank. His only chance at escape. Swords slashed air while arrows slid by his back.
Lordy: Ahhggh!!
Lordy: ...and that's how I got this hat.
Lordy took the last bite of his pig's blood pudding and bid farewell to the tavernkeep. His search for the note would continue. He rose from his seat, and suddenly a shocking pain fell through him. He wondered hard for a split second. What is causing such pain? What have I encumbered, what ailment could have harmed me so much?
Lordy wondered and wondered, but the entrancing pain numbed his reason. Soon he was interrupted by a familiar voice...
Citizen: Mer-her, Argonian Pincushion.
Lordy: Who has disgraced my race?!
Citizen: Not your race *snort.* Just you.
Lordy: I see. Then this makes it personal.
Citizen: Uhh, Uhh. Don't take me, take my wife.
Lordy: A wife to you? Why, she must be no more than a fish to a fishmonger.
Citizen: Uhh, Uhh. Okay. Take my wife's boss' husbands' uncle's favourite barkeep then.
Lordy: And who would this barkeep be?
Citizen: Uhh, Uhh. She's called Augusta, she sleeps behind the counter.
Lordy: I see. Very well, I will accept your offering in place of your life.
Lordy put his search for the note on hold in favour of the citizen's reparation.
...
Later that night....
Lordy: Quiet Narrator! She will hear you! And then my perverse ways will be ill at ease!
Lordy: Ahhggh!!
Pain entrenched his right shoulder. Then again at his waist. Then again at his left shoulder and again just below.
Lordy fell towards a glistening saber; held high above the head of the one who would end him. Half a moon was cleft into quarters by the light of that sword, and Lordy knew the end was near.
With all he had left, Lordy pushed himself forward, tripping over his own feet and into the waist of the cutlass wielding pirate. Together they tumbled through the abyss of the sea; coughing, spluttering and panting within the seemingly rage-filled waters of the dock.
The fight went on, but eventually Lordy emerged. It had lasted a whole eight hours, and within the first half hour the pirate had drowned - but Lordy did not realize this, as he could breathe underwater...
Lordy: ...and that's how I got this hat.Lordy wondered and wondered, but the entrancing pain numbed his reason. Soon he was interrupted by a familiar voice...
Citizen: Mer-her, Argonian Pincushion.
The Tavern went silent. Waves of trepidation took the nervous occupants as Lordy slowly turned round to face the man who had disgraced his race.
Lordy: Who has disgraced my race?!
Citizen: Not your race *snort.* Just you.
Lordy: I see. Then this makes it personal.
Citizen: Uhh, Uhh. Don't take me, take my wife.
Lordy: A wife to you? Why, she must be no more than a fish to a fishmonger.

Later that night....
Gufufufu, what a heavy sleeper.
Lordy swiftly ran his hands down her backsi-
Lordy: Quiet Narrator! She will hear you! And then my perverse ways will be ill at ease!
Lordy envisioned the situation. The citizen said he could have her. Now, he surely had no right to say that, but Lordy thought that Lordy was sitting here right now and any excuse to carry on was a good excuse.
There was only one problem.
What does it mean to "Have her?"
Lordy wondered meticulously.
