* In the prodigious backstory of ''[[Warhammer Fantasy Battle]]'', there was once a great war between the [[Elves vs. Dwarves|elves and the dwarfs]]. While the war was inevitable due to deep social, economic and cultural differences, an overly arrogant elven king and some too-stubborn dwarf lords, helped with a dark elven [[False-Flag Operation]], the straw that broke the camel's back was when said elven king had the dwarven emissary to his court ''shaved'' for his own amusement. The subsequent war is known as "[[Serious Business|the War of Vengeance]]" to the dwarfs, who do not take kindly to use of the more common elven term, "the War of the Beard".
* In ''[[Planescape]]'', a tiefling will likely take offense to be called a "bastard" or "half-breed" (of course, who wouldn't?); "planetouched" they're okay with, though they prefer "Sir" or "Lady".
