D4Dwarf.png 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.


There are five contenders for this award.

Sea

Carp: Lord of the oceans and killer of dwarves. These horrid creatures of the deep will pull any Dwarf to their death in a short amount of time and could probably take on an Elephant if they were allowed to fight each other.

Hippo: Lord of the lakes and rivers. Like elephants, but swimming and in great hordes. Like carp, but huge and air-breathing.

Air

Giant eagle: Tyrants of the air and as big as a Horse. These almighty beasts are ok if you don't provoke them, but if you insist on taking them on then death will soon be yours.

Land

Unicorn: Ferocious monsters that are the current contender on land for King of the Beasts.

Elephant: The former holder of the title. In more recent versions, their ferocity has been toned down, and slaughters on the scale of Boatmurdered are a thing of the past. That being said, elephants are still powerful juggernauts when provoked.
