    Grammar quibble

    "You feel there are naught but cobwebs here." ...makes me cringe every time I read it.

    "Are" should be "Is."

      My grammar quibble is with the ubiquitous:
      "The Arrow (1d4) (+0,+0) hit <whatever>"

      Since the messages are generally in the present tense, not a retrospective on past events, it seems it should be "hits".
