| − | == | + | '''Beast hunters''' are [[visitor]]s that will visit and [[petition]] to stay in order to slay [[creature]]s in your above-ground [[surroundings]]. They may arrive in your fortress at any time, regardless of whether the fort has any [[locations]]. Their subterranean counterparts are the [[monster slayer]]s. |

Beast hunters arrive with their own [[weapon]]s and [[armor]], as well as some degree of basic [[combat skill]]. If you accept their service, they will live among your dwarves like regular citizens, although they will spend all of their time either loitering around [[meeting hall]]s or prowling the surface, looking for animals to kill. Beast hunters cannot be assigned any labors, will not [[haul]] anything, and cannot be given orders, or be controlled by [[burrow]]s or other means-they're equivalent to a fortress' own [[hunter]]s in behavior, though unlike those latter, they won't immediately flee combat due to running out of [[crossbow]] [[bolt]]s if they're wielding melee weapons. | Beast hunters arrive with their own [[weapon]]s and [[armor]], as well as some degree of basic [[combat skill]].
