In Dwarf Fortress, a token is a game code tag that adds information, restrictions or behaviour to a creature, object, material, terrain feature or other part of the game. Tokens are visible in the RAW .txt files, and can often be modified to create some interesting results - some useful, some not so much.
Examples of tokens include...
- Ammo tokens, used for ammo.
- Armor tokens define armor.
