Chriswa:

An incredibley cute [[vermin]] loved for its gentleness and stumble bumbling, with a tendancy to gnaw at dwarven foods.

40d:Fire imp

2008-08-26T16:38:47Z

Chriswa:

{{CreatureInfo|name=Fire Imp|biome=Subterranean lava|symbol=i|color=rgb(255, 255, 0)|butcher=yes|bones=3|fat=1|skin=Yes|skulls=1|chunks=3|meat=3}}

Fire imps are nasty little [[creatures]] that live in [[magma]] vents. They usually don't roam far from the vent, but they will surface and attack the odd [[dwarf]] who dares use their vent to fuel his [[magma smelter]]. They are rather small and easy to kill, but are able to breathe [[fire]] that deals high damage and ignites objects and creatures. If you insist on using imp-infested magma for your metalworks, consider setting [[trap]]s or stationing [[marksdwarf|marksdwarves]] around the [[furnace]]s. If you don't want to do that, you can follow the same procedure you use to prevent [[fire man|fire men]] from getting your dwarves.

When a fire imp corpse is butchered, clouds of "boiling fire imp fat" will briefly bubble out from the [[Butcher's shop]], which can ignite nearby items or clothes (at least one butcher has perished to this fate (df_28_181_40c).) Additionally, [[crafts]] made from their [[bone]]s are quite valuable.

==Catching Imps==

Imps can be easily caught by building a channel or wall around the magma with only one little opening then placing cage traps in that one entrance; many traps in a row are recommended. The imps will run out of the magma with the intent of killing your dwarfs, only to get caught by your traps. This is a good semi-safe way to control the fire imps in your area. Just make sure you dwarfs are not going in areas that you have boxed off, or there will be nothing to stop them from killing your dwarfs.

== Interesting Note ==
When Fire Imps are injured, they bleed Goo.

Chriswa: Noted that butchering Fire Imps can kill your butcher!

40d:Chunk

2007-12-21T05:34:33Z

Chriswa:

A '''chunk''' of any type is a waste object generated either by [[Butcher's Shop|butchering]] animals or by fierce [[combat]]. Chunks have no in-game use and are considered [[refuse stockpile|refuse]].

When a creature is biting another and has a body part grasped in its mouth, [[chunk]]s of the body part can get ripped away, worsening the wound. Sometimes the entire body part will remain in its mouth as it is torn away, depending on the health of it and the size. On major body parts, if too many [[chunk]]s get ripped away, the wound could become instantly fatal, if not the parts ripped away by the creature's grip.
