| − | + | The <code>[OBJECT:CREATURE]</code> [[token]] begins the definition of a ''Dwarf Fortress'' [[creature]] [[raw file]]. Each creature definition that follows begins with the {{token|creature|c|creature ID}} token, and the creature's exact properties and behavior are then specified by the use of further creature tokens. All known creature tokens are listed below. | |
| − | + | Vanilla creature definitions can be found in <code>[[Game folder|<Dwarf Fortress>]]\data\vanilla\vanilla_creatures\</code>. | |
| + | Creature ID is also used with [[graphics token]]s to make customizable [[graphics set]]s. | ||
| − | + | The [[caste]] tokens allow defining sub-species within the broader creature definition, including true biological castes and lesser variations, such as sexes. Creature tokens can either be 'Creature' or 'CASTE-only' type which can only be applied to creature or cast respectively, or 'CASTE' which can be applied to both. In the table bellow, creature type distinguish tokens that can be applied to creature only, cast only and both ('creature', 'CASTE-only', and 'CASTE' respectively) | |

The basic requirements for adoption are intact, and the creature will only adopt individuals who have a [[preference]] for their species. Used by [[cat]]s in the vanilla game. When {{k|v}}iewing a tame creature with this token, the message "This animal isn't interested in your wishes" will appear instead of "This [adorable] animal can't work" or "This animal is waiting to be trained". |

In [[adventurer mode]], large predators will try to ambush and attack you (and your party will attack them back). When tamed, large predators tend to be much more aggressive to enemies than non-large predators, making them a good choice for an animal army. They may go on rampages in worldgen, and adventurers may receive quests to kill them. Also, they can be mentioned in the intro paragraph when starting a fortress e.g. "ere the wolves get hungry." |
