dome
Hemispherical ceiling structure
A dome is a rounded vault forming a roof or ceiling, typically hemispherical: the dome of the Capitol building.
The shape extends to anything dome-like—a bald head, the sky, or a stadium roof.
To dome in gaming slang is to shoot someone in the head: He domed me from across the map.
