v50.14 · v0.47.05 This article is about the current version of DF.Note that some content may still need to be updated. |
This article or section has been rated D for Dwarf. It may include witty humour, not-so-witty humour, bad humour, in-jokes, pop culture references, and references to the Bay12 forums. Don't believe everything you read, and if you miss some of the references, don't worry. It was inevitable. |
King of Beasts is a fan-title originally awarded to Elephants for their brutality and strength. While elephants are no longer the beasts they were, there are currently quite a few contenders for the title.
Water
Giant sponge: These horrifying monsters can only be killed in fair combat by mashing their bodies to a pulp, a feat that generally requires lots of patience and a gigantic hammer. They are not very aggressive, but Armok help you if you are next to them in water.
Air
Giant kea: These brutal, green giant parrots have the distinction of looking harmless, but not only will they seek your fort for stealing stuff (such as your sole anvil, when you have not built your forge yet), but also tend to brutally murder any dwarf they meet in the dark corridors of your fort.
Land
Unicorn: Their main definition of good is living in a fairyland full of feather trees while stabbing and kicking dwarves to death, which is bad news when they're bigger than a horse and have hooves. Elves can bring a ton of them with their sieges.
Giant cave spider: This large arachnid will eat most stuff in the caverns, including most dwarves you throw at them. It can shoot immobilising webs and is armed with a deadly toxin, making it incredibly dangerous.
Cave dragon: Cave dragons are as skilled in battle as your regular soldiers, if not more, and are far larger than them. The fun news? They come in dozens with goblin sieges!
Giant dingo: A hell-spawned monster, the giant dingo not only is bigger, faster, and more aggressive than a bear, but it spawns in groups and happens in every savage biome. Few adventurers (or babies) will survive.
Giant elephant: A giant elephant. It is the biggest land creature and second-biggest creature, tied with giant orcas.
