Pico de Gallows - Pico de Gallo (mexican combination of vegetables for tacos and other stuff, and the other definition is chicken peak) took me a while to understand it until i don't know why i read it in spanish.

Star Wars reference. I forgot the area..but it's an old and a young NPC and the young one is like "What do you mean "there is no try"?". Maybe I'm just over thinking it though.

I'm pretty sure this has been said, but too lazy to read all the posts.

DRK skill Living Dead, when you reach 0hp it turns into Walking Dead.

Cid pulls a Jean Luc Picard reference from Star Trek TNG when he lifts off in his Enterprise Excelsior and says "Engage!"

I was giggling with nerd joy.

You found it! If you hang around the elder Elzen does a variation on the "Do or not do." line.

Oh, I found a good one...

Go to The Dravanian Forelands (32,24) and listen to the NPCs chatting.

I found a reference in a Guildleve for Goldsmithing (Level 52).

Its called "High Above Me, She Sews Lovely", a reference to "Tal Bachman - She's So High", the lyrics specificlly "She's so high above me, she's so lovely".

Actually Matoya and her cave is a reference to the first FF..

which could still be a reference to Fantasia from Disney since the original was made in 1940. we wont know for sure unless the makers of the first FF come forth and confirm or deny it.

Stan lee/Marvel reference cid calls he's new ship Excelsior!

fairly sure this was a Star Trek reference since in STIII the Excelsior Class was meant to be the successor to the Enterprise Class(Constitution refit).

"Dreams of War, Dreams of Liars, Dreams of Dragon Fire" is the name of a Miner leve in The Churning Mists. It's also a line of lyrics from Metallica's Enter Sandman.

I don't know if anyone mentioned it yet but the Level 58 Levequest Dance, Magic Dance is a line from the song "Magic Dance" by David Bowie from the film Labyrinth.

Its a bit strange since in the film early scripts had Jareth revealed as a goblin using magic to appear human at the end. While the quest has you looking for a witch using magic to be disguised as a goblin.
