''Dwarf Fortress'' uses [[tileset]]s and [[Graphics|sprite graphics]] to draw the game, including maps. This '''map legend''' explains what the [[character table|characters]] and [[color]]s represent in the pre-start embark (or [[adventure mode|adventure]]) map.

The colors of a map tile may give information about that region's predominant [[biome]] and [[surroundings]]; its temperature, alignment, and other handy things. Generally, cyan and blue means the area is "good" aligned. Purple, gray, brown, and red areas have "evil" alignment. Light grey, brown, and yellow areas usually are dry and have sparse vegetation. Green tiles have vegetation and are usually moist. White and cyan tiles indicate snow or ice. The color of trees that change season to season can tell about a tree's current [[tree#Growths|growth]].

In ASCII mode, the characters and their colors offer slightly more information about a biome, such as the temperature mixed with the moral standing of the biome (good, neutral and evil) compared to the graphics of the premium version of the game. With the graphics, the presentation is more simplified, as each biome type is displayed with the following graphical information: neutral, evil, evil savage, good and good savage. Some graphics are displayed the same, regardless of what type of biome or moral surroundings they are part of.
