Just noticed in a character log:

Gorbat, Supreme Wyrmic of the Pride is less imprevious to physical effects.

Should be impervious.

I see that "ingore" got fixed in the SVN code, could "unharmed" (unarmed) be coming next?

On the loading screen:

"Corruptors fed off the essence of others, and can use their own corrupted blood to launch deadly magical attacks."

Should be

"Corruptors feed off the essence of others, and can use their own corrupted blood to launch deadly magical attacks."

Deep Bellow Excavation Report 2:

"Miners are roudy, hrm!"

should be

"Miners are rowdy, hrm!"

and

"More Sher'Tul artifacts found, possible even remains of weapons."

should be

"More Sher'Tul artifacts found, possibly even remains of weapons."

Dwarven starting text:

"You have sworn that once you reach the Iron Council safely you will take on a life of adventurer, looking for fame and treasures of old."

should be

"You have sworn that once you reach the Iron Council safely you will take on the life of an adventurer, looking for fame and treasures of old."

or possibly


"You have sworn that once you reach the Iron Council safely you will take on a life of adventure, looking for fame and treasures of old."

Just so you know, DG, you fixed the second typo in SVN, but not the first.

Mouseover on Dreadfell reads

"The entry to the old tower of Dreadfell".

If it's supposed to refer to a physical object/location, it should be "entrance" rather than "entry".

Both the description of a vilespawn and the log message heralding its arrival incorrectly refer to Corpathus as "Corpus".

On completing the Lichform quest:

"The secrets of death lay open to you!"

Should be

"The secrets of death are laid open to you!"

(this is a common mistake: "lay" is either the past tense of "to lie", or the transitive verb "to lay [a thing in a place]")

The loading screen message that begins "the Spellblaze tore Eyal apart" has a redundant quote mark at the start.

The loading screen message that opens "Wild infusions call upon the power of nature" refers to "inflictions". This should be "afflictions".

Scrying Orb description:

"when carried:


This orb will automatically items you find."

1) Redundant line breaks between "when carried" and description.

2) missing word: "identify".

Loading screen tip of the day concerning Thick Skin says "reducing all damage" where it should be "reduces all damage".
