Follow-up to the gargoyle Throwing work (#2510/#2512/#2514). Ports two Stygian Abyss creatures from ServUO so two of the throwing artifacts finally have a real OSI drop source instead of being `[add`-only.
## Changes
- **`Raptor`** and **`StoneSlith`** — ported stat-for-stat from ServUO. They **spawn automatically**: `Distribution/Data/Spawns/post-uoml/termur/TerMur.json` already contained Raptor/StoneSlith spawner entries referencing these class names, so no spawn-file edits were needed.
- **`RaptorClaw`** (Boomerang-based) and **`StoneSlithClaw`** (Cyclone-based) artifacts, dropped from each creature's `OnDeath` at ServUO's 0.5% rate (uncontrolled only).
- StoneSlith retains its `GraspingClaw` monster ability; both use `BleedAttack`.
## ModernUO idioms
Default range perception (16) / fight range, derived `GetSpeeds` (no `SetSpeed`), `[SerializationGenerator(0)]` codegen, collection-expression arrays.
## Documented omissions vs ServUO
Flagged as TODO in-code — all are content missing from ModernUO, not silent drops: Raptor's friend-spawn timer + its 25% `AncientPotteryFragments` drop; StoneSlith's `TailSwipe`, `DragonBlood`, and `SlithEye`/`TatteredAncientScroll`/`AncientPotteryFragments` drops; plus `HideType.Horned/Spined` and `PackInstinct.Ostard` (no ModernUO equivalents yet).
## Not included
The other three throwing artifacts (Storm Caller, Banshee's Call, Wind of Corruption) drop from renowned/boss creatures via a `BaseRenowned` artifact-list system that doesn't exist in ModernUO yet — a separate, larger effort. AbyssReaver stays with the (deferred) Into-the-Void quest.
Verified: server builds clean; throwing suite 14/14.
## Summary
Phase 3 PR B of the message-interpolation cleanup. Handles the multi-line restructure sites flagged in `dev-docs/string-handling-message-interp-audit.md` (Phase 2). Phase 3.1 (PR #2436) handled trivial sweeps; this PR handles sites that needed an `if/else` hoist or switch restructure to eliminate `string.Format` while preserving exact message text.
Each site previously allocated an intermediate `string.Format(...)` result before passing to the message handler, despite Phase 1 making the handler accept interpolated string handlers natively.
## Sites fixed
- **`Projects/Server/Mobiles/Mobile.cs:7911`** - Title/guild header was using `string.Format` with a conditional template (`"[{1}]{2}"` vs `"[{0}, {1}]{2}"`). Split into `if (title.Length <= 0)` / `else` with direct `$"..."` interpolation.
- **`Projects/UOContent/Engines/ConPVP/DuelContext.cs:1337`** - View-ladder rank text used `string.Format(text, from == pm ? "You" : "They")`. Split into `if (from == pm)` / `else` with direct `$"..."` interpolation in each branch.
- **`Projects/UOContent/Engines/ConPVP/DuelContext.cs:1463`** - Showladder text reused a single format string for both `LocalOverheadMessage` ("You ... are ...") and `NonlocalOverheadMessage` ("`{pm.Name}` ... is ..."). Each call now uses an inline `$"..."` directly; no shared template.
- **`Projects/UOContent/Engines/ConPVP/Gumps/ConfirmSignupGump.cs:518`** - The signup confirmation message used a `switch` expression assigning a literal format string to `fmt`, then `string.Format(fmt, from.Female ? "Lady" : "Lord", timeUntil)`. Converted to a `switch` statement where each case calls `_registrar.PrivateOverheadMessage(...)` directly with an inline `$"..."`. Lady/Lord branching is hoisted to a `title` local.
## Exempted
- **`Projects/UOContent/Engines/ConPVP/Participant.cs:138`** - The `nonLocalOverhead` format string is a parameter passed in by callers of `Participant.Broadcast`. Investigation found 5 call sites in `DuelContext.cs` (lines 782, 802, 1187, 1196, and three at 1535/1564/1608) that pass distinct literal format strings. Refactoring would require changing all 5 callers and the method signature - out of scope for this PR. Marked with a `// Phase 3 audit:` comment per the audit's exemption convention.
## Summary
- Adds the Endless Decanter of Water (introduced in Publish 66.2 / SA era)
- Players throw a full Pitcher of Water at a Water Elemental for a 10% chance to receive the decanter; the pitcher is always destroyed on impact
- Each Water Elemental can only yield one decanter; the state is persisted and previously saved elementals are migrated to the new serialization version
- The decanter auto-refills from a linked water trough when the owner empties it within 10 tiles of the stored trough location
- Linking stores a Point3D + Map snapshot, supporting both static tile troughs and addon troughs
- The decanter is blessed and displays Linked/Unlinked status in its tooltip
## Summary
- Adds `public virtual bool Murderer => Kills >= 5` property to `Mobile`, replacing ~30 scattered `Kills >= 5` / `Kills < 5` magic-number checks across the codebase
- `BaseCreature` overrides `Murderer` to also return `true` when `AlwaysMurderer` is set
- Updates `Corpse` serialization to v15, storing `_murderer` as a `bool` field (migrated from `int Kills >= 5` in earlier versions)
### Summary
- Adds [Code Generated Events](https://github.com/modernuo/CodeGeneratedEvents)
- Removes EventSink.PlayerDeath
- Adds `PlayerDeathEvent` and `CreatureDeathEvent` using code generated events
> [!Important]
> **Developer Note**
> Use `[OnEvent(nameof(PlayerMobile.PlayerDeathEvent))]` instead of `EventSink.PlayerDeath` delegate
> Check this commit for examples of how to use this.
> [!Important]
> **Developer Note**
> This code change will **completely move gumps out of the core**
### Summary
- Adds `GetGumps()` convenience which exposes methods to Find/Close/Send multiple gumps. This helper is a performance improvement by eliminating the Dictionary<Player, List> lookup for gumps.
## Summary
- Removes allocation of a `List<ContextMenuEntry>` every time a context menu is created.
- Moves packet/context menu creation logic out of the core
- Fixes tame entry
## BREAKING CHANGE
> [!Important]
> **Developer Note**
> ```cs
> public virtual void GetContextMenuEntries(Mobile from, List<ContextMenuEntry> list)
> ```
> and similar functions changed to
> ```cs
> public virtual void GetContextMenuEntries(Mobile from, ref PooledRefList<ContextMenuEntry> list)
> ```
### Summary
- Fixes the name `Vegies` to `Veggies`
- Adds feeding leather to goats
- Adds metal for Lava Lizards
- Fixes Bone Helm being classified as plate instead of bone.
- Fixes wooden shields not classified as wood.
### Note
On OSI, the preferred foods on the animal lore gump doesn't contain all possible favorite food categories. Furthermore, the one listed is not necessarily always the "first" in the list of possible categories. We aren't going to try and fix that since it isn't important.
### Summary
Eliminates `IPooledEnumerable<T>` and `eable.Free()` from `Map` for mobiles. This drastically simplifies code that iterates in range, for example:
```cs
foreach (var m in m.GetMobilesInRange(5))
{
}
```
The code above no longer requires an eable and calling `Free()`.
- [X] Fixed several locations where an NPC that was damaged would cause a server crash.
- [X] Removed an unnecessary allocation in guard fake calls (NPCs calling guards on you)
- [X] Fixes damage precision loss in Poison Strike Spell
- [X] BogThing no longer attempts to "search" for boglings to eat when it is at full health
### Summary
Modifying a ValueLinkList using one of the methods will bump the "version". This field is used by iterators (foreach loops) to determine if the link list was modified while iterating. The sector.Items (and in the future other lists), will no longer be safe to modify while iterating. The server will _CRASH_ if the ValueLinkList is modified.

- [X] Removed Chaos/Order shields from Fighters
- [X] Moved all item equips so they are done after stats are assigned.
### Summary
- [X] Fixes 4 TormentedMinotaur created at `(0, 0, 0) [null]` when `[add` is used.
- [X] Fixes client crash from a bug in HouseRaffleStone when `[add` is used.

## Changes
* Improves type hashing by introducing xxHash3 (64bit)
* Removes individual `tdb` files in favor of a single `SerializedTypes.db` file. This file is only used to identify a type that is being deserialized, which doesn't exist.
* Adds duplicate type alias detection
* Adds `AssemblyHandler.FindTypeByHash`

## SerializedTypes.db
The serialized types file is used to get back the original name of a type in case it no longer exists in code. This can easily be necessary if a class is renamed in code and no `TypeAlias` is provided.
### Format
byte[4] - version
byte[4] - count
--array--
byte[8] - xxHash
byte[1] - flag, 0 - null, 1 - not null
byte[n] - Full class name in UTF8

## Benchmarks
Serialized 500 Type fields. The 8192bytes comes from the _ConcurrentQueue_ that would later be used for SerializedTypes.
Note that the queue is never cleared, so it's size grew considerably.
