I don't see how this situation could happen, considering that the character had ESP. Were the hounds offscreen? Did they spawn *right* on the character?

Perhaps there were 2 mushrooms or jellies in the way.

It should have said: "the plasma hound breathes plasma". The message, "it breathes...", sounds erroneous considering that the character had ESP.

Scene of Death doesn't have any way of considering the character's viewport at the time of death. Most likely, they were off screen, in which case un-known, so "it" was correct.

OR it was hounds from the second or third row back that actually breathed.
