      When killed by an unnamed mob, the death message displays as
      "<username> was slain by <Mob>"

      One would expect this to look like one of these instead:
      "<username> was slain by a <Mob>"
      "<username> was slain by a <mob>"

      Named mobs, as well as other players, currently produce grammatically correct messages.

      This could be fixed by adding a separate death message for being killed by an unnamed mob, whereas the current death message would be kept for named mobs as well as players.
