Recently, I was going through the Factions campaign and came across the NPC
Ang the Ephemeral. I found this amusing because the Dictionary.com definition for Ephemeral was
·phem·er·al /ɪˈfɛmərəl/
–adjective
1. lasting a very short time; short-lived; transitory: the ephemeral joys of childhood.
2. lasting but one day: an ephemeral flower.
–noun
3. anything short-lived, as certain insects.
Yet Ang is a ghost, and therefore technically not even alive, and supposedly intending to stick around for more than a day.

Or maybe it could mean that he didn't live a very long life. He may have died at a young age, therefore "not lasting very long". So now, he's a ghost. ;)
