Hi Caineach and Stuffy Grammarian and all, points noted. I realise here is not the place so I won't defend my ( correct ;p ) position. I'm satisfied that both opinions have been expressed, and people can do their own research to find out if it's acceptable or not.

If anyone wants to continue the discussion over an ale, then I'll be crawling the inns of Whitethrone, Irrisen, and, as my oddly raw meat scented breath melts the the ice in your beard, I recommend you choose your opinions carefully...

With regards to the monster, I love it, it's creepy and used by a good GM would make me crap my pants. But I'm biased, as the designer's my brother.

Biased or not I have to mention that:

A single victim is not a "them." Rather, the victim is a "he" or "she" (presumably, although an ooze victim might well be an "it").

I hate to get drawn into the grammar but as an English teacher I feel obliged to say that Daniel's usage is exactly right, "their" is the possessive pronoun used in either the plural case or instead of "his" or "her" when the sex is not known.

Please see

or any grammar book for details.

Good luck Dan!
