This article is about an older version of DF. |
Werebeasts are a variant of night creature that are procedurally created during worldgen. Deities may curse sentient creatures to transform into an animal form on the night of a full moon. Creatures bitten by werebeasts are cursed to become werebeasts themselves.
Werebeasts in Fortresses
In some regions, the full moon will herald the attack of werebeasts upon your fortress, or instead the unwilling transformation of your own citizens into their bestial forms. The cursed will attack anyone they can find for the duration of the full moon, spreading their affliction even further. Werebeasts of the same species will cooperate with each other and not normally fight, but those of different species will treat each other no differently than enemies.
