I assumed she was talking about his current level title, but I'm not sure why it got that kind of reaction.

'cause it's weird and I'm not sure what a skretch is or why he's bait for one.

everything and nothing. I just thought the situations comparable. ALthough I guess you weren't really "Nak'Shen bait." That was camel poo

Well-known Warrior is my title, but I think I'm more well-known for my camel poo shoveling origins.

well, the title doesn't explicitly state that you're well known for being a warrior...

In the original worldbuilding for the setting of the forum game and titles, 'skretchs' were evil, demonic creatures that stalk the lands.  Several of the titles across the classes make references to them.  

Their body parts can be used for magical spells, and so the academy of Dark Magic is very eager to gather skretch corpses.  Unfortunately, they're very hard to kill, and traps work best.  Hence, the use of people as bait.  One of the lower "Student of Dark Magic" classes was "skretch-bait."  It's part of the initiation.  When they run low on new initiates to use, they tend to turn to their research assistants instead....
