The whole “scientists use big words on purpose to be exclusive” is such a bunch of anti-intellectual bullshit. Specific and concise language exists for a reason; you need the right words to convey the right meaning, and explaining stuff right is a hugely important part of science. Cultures that live around loads of snow have loads of words to describe different types of snow; cultures that live in deserts have loads of words to describe different types of sand. Complex language is needed for complex meaning.

I was part of a group of evil scientists, and we were pretending to be regular office workers to continue our evil science stuff and the boss got suspicious and checked my eye for some reason but I passed the test because it didn't look evil enough.

Sylvaine Asheweaver lives under a stolen name in a commandeered mansion that was built for a scholarly being much larger than her.
Most people of Marrowtide tend to make up a lot of outlandish rumors about her, too afraid to actually go to Tattered Wing island (it may be the griffins as well).
She’s got that kind of uuhhhh Vincent Price-house-on-haunted-hill type vibe goin on.
