* FridgeHorror: In ''The Seat of Your Pants'', Isidor Farring's paranoia about the [BlobMonster vanaa]] and constantly mentioning how they could kill people with their shapeshifting. Later on, we learn that he used to be a mercenary whose group was betrayed and wiped out by Old Salt, a cruel and ruthless vanaa. It's entirely possible that Isidor's constant warnings of vanaa shapeshifting come from witnessing Old Salt use those tactics to murder his old friends and comrades -- pretty awful, considering one such warning is of vanaa [[OrificeInvasion forcing their mass into someone]] and [[PopGoesTheHuman expanding]].
