Isn't language fun? English more so than most, given how it has a habit of following other languages down dark alleys, knocking them over the head with a club and making off with loose bits of vocabulary and grammar...

At least I don't have to add this to the bug list, because that's what a name change would require.

which is a bit odd.

Also: Leroy Jenkins as a random name? Good grief...

Oh, I got the reference... Turns out it was a mod altering certain name possibilities.

In the Black Serpent's description, it says "The black serpent is the serpent form of the lamia."

Since Lamia is the name of a unit, I think it should be capitalized.

Lamia is the name of the monster, but when used within a sentence instead of at the beginning, it is not capitalized. Just like you don't capitalize animal names like bear, tiger, wolf, badger etc inside a sentence.

Only proper names and titles are capitalized, as well as military ranks when referring to a specific individual (e.g. Captain So-and-so).

Think this is part of a mod, but I am not sure. It is the God Spider's description:

"It is known that God Spider is a great trickster, lier and storyteller"

"Lier" should be liar.

These leather boots have been drenched in the blood of ten young vigins. The wearer of these boots will cease his natural aging and is magically reinvigorated during battle.

I think it meant to say "the blood of ten young vegans". Well, a man can dream, no?
