This is the body from a [[Purring maggot]]. It creates a body with head, a heart, some guts, a brain, and a mouth. That's all a maggot needs.

|-
| {{text anchor|BODY_APPEARANCE_MODIFIER}}
| Caste
|
*ATTRIBUTE
*lowest:lower:low:median:high:higher:highest
| These body modifiers give individual creatures different characteristics. In the case of HEIGHT, BROADNESS and LENGTH, the modifier is also a percentage change to the BODY_SIZE of the individual creature. The seven numbers afterward give a distribution of ranges. Each interval has an equal chance of occurring.
'''Example:'''<br />
[BODY_APPEARANCE_MODIFIER:HEIGHT:90:95:98:100:102:105:110] <br />
''HEIGHT'' : marks the height to be changed <br />
''90:95:98:100:102:105:110'' : sets the range from the shortest (90% of the average height) to the tallest (110% of the average height) creature variation.

|-
| {{text anchor|BODY_DETAIL_PLAN}}

'''Example:'''<br />
[BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:VERTEBRATE_TISSUE_LAYERS:SKIN:FAT:MUSCLE:BONE:CARTILAGE] <br />
This creates the detailed body of a [[fox]], the skin, fat, muscle, bones and cartilage out of the vertebrate tissues.<br />
A [[Purring maggot|maggot]] would only need:<br />
''[BODY_DETAIL_PLAN:EXOSKELETON_TISSUE_LAYERS:SKIN:FAT:MUSCLE]''

|-
| {{text anchor|BODY_SIZE}}
| Caste
| years:days:size
| Sets size at a given age. Size is in cubic centimeters, and for normal body materials is roughly equal to the creature's average weight in grams.
'''Example:'''<br />
[BODY_SIZE:0:0:10000]<br />
[BODY_SIZE:1:168:50000]<br />
[BODY_SIZE:12:0:220000]<br />
This describes the size of a [[minotaur]]. His birth size would be 10,000 cm<sup>3</sup> (~10 kg). At 1 year and 168 days old he would be 50,000 cm<sup>3</sup> (~50 kg). And as an adult (at 12 years old) he would be 220,000 cm<sup>3</sup> and weigh roughly 220 kg.

| Creature
|
*mindepth
*maxdepth
| Depth the creature appears underground. Numbers can be from 0 to 5. 0 is actually 'above ground' and can be used if the creature is to appear both above and below ground. A single argument may be used instead of min and max. Only magma creatures use 4 or 5 in the default raws. [[Demon]]s use only 5:5; user-defined creatures with both this depth and [FLIER] will take part in the initial wave from the HFS alongside generated demons.

The default setting for kobolds (a yellow quotation mark) provides a nice "glowing eyes" effect. The game is also hardcoded to automatically convert quotation mark GLOWTILES into apostrophes if the creature has lost one eye. This works at the generic creature level - for caste-specific glow tiles, use CASTE_GLOWTILE instead.

| {{text anchor|NIGHT_CREATURE_BOGEYMAN}}
| Caste
|
| Found on bogeymen. Creatures with this tag will join other bogeymen in attacking adventurers at night, and will also adopt their other behaviors, such as vanishing in smoke upon being killed. This does not affect the creature's presence elsewhere, such as for generated megabeasts, normal creatures, entity members, etc. Setting the number of bogeyman types to zero in the world gen parameters will remove only the randomly-generated bogeymen.

|-

| Caste
|

The creature will settle in a lair and go on rampages during worldgen. If this creature has SPOUSE_CONVERTER, it will actively attempt to seek out potential conversion targets to abduct, convert, and have children with (if possible).

This tag causes the usual behaviour of [[werebeast]]s in worldgen, that is, fleeing towns upon being cursed and conducting raids from a lair. If this tag is absent from a deity curse, the accursed will simply be driven out of towns in a similar manner to [[vampire]]s.

| {{text anchor|UBIQUITOUS}}
| Creature
|
| Creature will occur in every region with the correct biome. Does not apply to evil/good tags.

|-
| {{text anchor|UNDERGROUND_DEPTH}}
| Creature
|
*mindepth
*maxdepth
| Depth the creature appears underground. Numbers can be from 0 to 5. 0 is actually 'above ground' and can be used if the creature is to appear both above and below ground. A single argument may be used instead of min and max. Only magma creatures use 4 or 5 in the default raws. [[Demon]]s use only 5:5; user-defined creatures with both this depth and [FLIER] will take part in the initial wave from the HFS alongside generated demons. Without [FLIER], they will only spawn from the map edges. Civilizations that can use underground plants or animals will only export (via the embark screen or caravans) things that available at depth 1.

|-
| {{text anchor|UNDERSWIM}}
| Caste
|
| Creature swims under the water and can't be seen. Seems to be a relic from the 2D era.

|-
| {{text anchor|UNIQUE_DEMON}}

| Creature
|
*new caste token
*old caste token
| Defines a new caste derived directly from a previous caste. The new caste inherits all properties of the old one.

|-
| {{text anchor|UTTERANCES}}
| Caste
|
| Changes the language of the creature into unintelligible 'kobold-speak', which creatures of other species will be unable to understand. If a civilized creature has this and is not part of a SKULKING civ, it will tend to start wars with all nearby civilizations and will be unable to make peace treaties due to 'inability to communicate'.

{{spoiler}}

A '''vault''' is a site that constitutes the ultimate challenge for any adventurer. Vaults are created by [[Demon|demons]] during world generation as part of the process of escaping into the world. After constructing the vault and a [[slab]], demons enlist the help of a deity with a relevent sphere, and the deity performs a ritual at the vault to bring the demon physically into the world (for example, a god associated with Fortresses may release a demon associated with Fortresses). The slab used in the ritual is then stored in the vault and various guardian angels make it their duty to defend the vault, and the slab, against adventurers.

After the demon has been brought into the world, it returns to the [[underworld spire]] from which it originally emerged. When history begins, goblin civilizations build a dark fortress around the spire and make it their capital, with the demon their leader. It is not known for certain whether there are always the same number of goblin civilizations as escaped demons, but it seems to be the case.

Vaults are large cylindrical structures constructed from [[Slade]], descending many Z-levels into the ground and filled with a mostly linear chain of rooms (similar to those found in Sewers and Tombs) occupied by the angelic guardians. Along the way can be found several [[lever]]s linked to vertical [[bars]] which must be raised in order to progress further. At the bottom of the vault is a giant slab inscribed with the demon's true name, and this knowledge allows you to track it down and either banish it or compel it to serve you (join you as a companion.

There are 3 types of [[angel]]s you will meet in vaults: soldiers (large humanoids with weapons and armor made of [[Divine metal|divine materials]] and Talented-level combat skills), assistants (large creatures with random features and low combat skills), and giant beasts (sized similarly to [[forgotten beast]]s and having Grand Master combat skills).

This will be a challenge for even the best equipped and skilled adventurer. It is recommended that you have mastery of at least one fighting skill and a breadth of capability in others. You will need to rely on at one, and can acquire a weapon that will make the fight easier. Axe, sword and whip are most common; any others may appear less frequently.

== Bugs ==

The full vault is occasionally inaccessible and the slab may not load.

In Dwarf Fortress, a '''creature''' is defined as any animate, normally-mobile (and for the sake of this article, non-[[vermin]]) being that can interact with the world. Although most creatures are animals, [[dwarf|dwarves]], [[giant cave spider]]s, and even [[megabeast]]s are all also considered creatures. Various creatures can and will interact with a fortress or adventure in many different ways.

==Reading the Table==
{{CreatureCurrent table head}}
|}
The above columns indicate, in order:

'''Symbol:''' The symbol assigned to the creature, how you will see it without a graphic set.

'''Name:''' The name of the creature as it shows up ingame.

'''Hostile:''' If "Yes" then the creature will attack on sight, if "No" then the creature is either neutral or friendly. [[Undead]] creatures are always hostile to living things.

'''Food Source:''' If "Yes" then the creature can be butchered into edible substance that your dwarves will feed on.

'''Adult Body Size:''' The average size of the creature when an adult. This can be anywhere from 500 for a [[rabbit]] to 25,000,000 for a [[dragon]]. More or less equals the creature's weight in grams. These sizes do not correspond to the sizes which trigger [[pressure plate]]s. Size is modified with height and broadness (i.e. incredible skinny and short is below the average weight, while a fat and tall one is above it).

'''Pet Value:''' This is the value the creature can be bought and sold for as a [[pet]] during [[trading]].

'''Biome:''' Where the creature can be found.

'''Features:''' Any special features the creature possesses, these can include things such as [[cave blob|causing a syndrome]], [[dragon|breathing fire]], or [[giant cave spider|spinning webs]].

{{av}}

The '''herbalist''' skill is used by dwarves with the '''plant gathering''' [[labor]] to gather [[plant]]s and plant growths. It is also used to gather fruits and nuts from certain [[tree]]s.

== Gathering plants ==

Shrubs and their growths can be gathered by designating them by {{key|d}}=>{{key|p}}. If successful, a herbalist will get a stack of 1 to 5 plants. Shrubs that have useful growths will always yield one of that growth upon gathering.

Herbalists can also gather plants by designating a gathering zone by {{key|i}}=>{{key|g}}. In this case, they will gather from shrubs, trees and the ground where fruit has fallen, using a [[stepladder]] to reach the tree branches whenever needed. Gathering zones can be configured to enable or disable all of these. Trees yield a substantially larger number of growths than shrubs - as many as a stack of 15 in some cases.

Most fruiting plants will bear fruit only in mid to late summer. Ripening is not yet a feature, so fruits can be used for brewing and eating at any time when they can be gathered.

== Food production ==
Herbalists are often used to help with food production in an early fortress as they do not require farm plots or other setup. While plant gathering is less efficient than [[farming]], it provides a relatively immediate payoff in comparison, especially in a region where fruit trees grow. Plant gathering is also an excellent way to acquire above ground plants in order to bootstrap above ground farming (the only alternative is to wait for a human or elven caravan and hope they brought seeds).

Above ground, this skill works best in areas with thick vegetation like [[forest]]s, where an abundance of fruit-bearing trees and shrubs grow. It is less useful in sparsely vegetated biomes like [[Desert|deserts or badlands]], and is completely useless in [[mountain]] and polar biomes which do not have shrubs or trees. Underground, plant gathering can be a high risk activity in the caverns, and production can be easily outstripped by farms. However, once a non-dry cavern has been opened, underground shrubs will begin to appear on ''all'' underground soil or muddy tiles. Herbalists can continue to gather from these to supplement your farming production, at no risk.

The number of plants in a stack a herbalist gathers depends on his skill the same as with quality levels in earlier versions - for every 'bump' in quality, there is one more plant, starting with 0-1 and capped at 5.

When a herbalist picks some plants, he will carry them to the food stockpile himself, even if his food hauling labor is disabled. Herbalists can carry more than one type of item if gathering from a plant that yields multiple usable growths. When gathering from trees, a herbalist will let the item drop to the ground, to be carried to a stockpile by haulers.

== Gathering seeds ==
Plants gathered by herbalists can be eaten or processed to provide [[seed|seeds]] which can then be [[crop|planted]] in farms. For this reason, it is popular (if not necessary) to gather above ground plants early in a fort's existence if one wants to grow above ground crops.

==Speed of training==
Dwarves gain [[experience]] in plant gathering every time they pick over a shrub whether they are successful at harvesting anything or not. Training a completely unskilled dwarf to legendary status in this skill requires the harvesting of 600 plants, and can be done in less than a couple of years. A legendary herbalist not suffering from any [[Skill#Skill_penalties|skill penalties]] will never fail to harvest a stack of four or five [[crop|plant]]s.

Samanato: new infos about growth harvesting

{{Migrated_article}}
{{quality|unrated}}{{av}}
The default plants are stored in the plant_standard.txt file, while grasses are stored in plant_grasses.txt.

==Basic Tokens==
These tokens are specified for all plants and define their most basic characteristics.

|-
| BASIC_MAT
|
* [[Material token|material]]
| Sets the basic material of the plant. According to Toady, you can use other materials (for instance, iron) but the game may hiccup on plants that aren't structurally plants. For crops, said material should have [STRUCTURAL_PLANT_MAT] to permit proper stockpiling. Generally, this should be "LOCAL_PLANT_MAT:material_name", using a material defined using MATERIAL, USE_MATERIAL, or USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE.
|}

==Environment Tokens==
These tokens, also applicable to all plants, specify where the plants grow.

Civilization

2014-08-29T01:46:20Z

Samanato: /* Unnamed, Primitive Civilizations */

{{Migrated_article}}
{{av}}{{Quality|Fine|14:19, 9 June 2010 (UTC)}}

A '''civilization''' is a nation, with settlements and a capital city.
When you start a new fortress, there are typically two or more dwarven civilizations which you can choose to be the parent civilization of your fortress. You can select your civilization at the [[location|site selection]] screen. Different civilizations can have different items available when you [[embark]]. You will be forced to [[modding|mod]] if you wish to play as any other race.

==Types==

===Mountain Civilization (The [[dwarf|dwarves]])===

Mountain civilizations build fortresses on the edge of [[mountain]] ranges, smaller [[hillock]] villages in the hill-lands nearby, and great [[mountain halls]] deep inside the mountain.
Their settlements are represented by {{Tile|Ω|#aaa|#000}} and {{Tile|Ω|#555|#000}} on the world map. Mountain civilizations can be connected by either roads or tunnels during World Generation.

=== Plains Civilization (The [[human|humans]])===

Plains civilizations build wooden [[town]]s and farming [[hamlet]]s in the lowlands.
Their towns are represented by {{Tile|+|#aaa|#000}}, {{Tile|#|#aaa|#000}}, {{Tile|*|#aaa|#000}}, or {{Tile|☼|#fff|#000}}, depending on size, on the world map. Hamlets are represented by {{Tile|Æ|#770|#000}} tiles. During World Generation, wooded [[biome]]s near towns are often converted into grassy [[biome]]s, presumably due to the human's logging industry. Towns can be connected by roads during World Generation. Roads will also be built between towns and conquered sites located in mountains or forests.

=== Forest Civilization (The [[elf|elves]])===

Forest civilizations build [[forest retreat]]s, large outdoor structures of trees planted in rows, in the middle of heavily forested areas.
Their settlements are represented by {{Tile|î|#ff0|#000}} and {{Tile|¶|#ff0|#000}} on the world map.

=== Evil Civilization (The [[goblin|goblins]])===

Evil civilizations build huge overworld [[dark fortress]]es and smaller [[dark pit]]s. They are represented by {{Tile|П|#f0f|#000}} and {{Tile|º|#707|#000}}, respectively. Dark towers are often populated by a mix of races since goblins are keen on <s>kidnapping</s> rescuing children from other civilizations. These evil settlements can be connected via tunnels during World Generation.

=== Skulking Civilization (The [[kobold]]s)===

Skulking civilizations populate [[cave]]s and steal items from nearby civilizations. Cave residents do not show as neighbours on the embark screen, and in default [[advanced world generation|world-gen settings]], the caves themselves are hidden from the map.

=== Underground Civilizations===

Sometimes unnamed tribes appear on the civilization screen, which are peopled by various other {{catlink|Humanoids|humanoids}} resembling animals. Unlike the other civilizations listed, these unnamed civilizations spawn underground, forming small camps. The creatures that form these civilizations include:
* [[Amphibian man]]
* [[Reptile man]]
* [[Rodent man]]
* [[Cave fish man]]
* [[Cave swallow man]]
* [[Olm man]]
* [[Serpent man]]
* [[Bat man]]
* [[Antman]]

==In-game==
Civilizations that you have been in contact with (either by WAR or trade) can be viewed by pressing {{k|c}} within your main fortress-mode view. Once you've selected a civilization to view, you can switch between viewing figureheads, export/import tallies, and [[trade agreements]] for that civilization with {{k|Tab}}. Friendly civilizations will generally report positive import/export values, while hostile civilizations generally trade in [[Death]] and [[Fun]]. You can peruse trade agreements with the arrow keys and {{k|Enter}}.

Note that "neighbours" on that screen are not always "neighbours". Sometimes, you can have an elven civilization as a neighbour while they are on the other side of the world.

A '''civilization''' is a nation, with settlements and a capital city.
When you start a new fortress, there are typically two or more dwarven civilizations which you can choose to be the parent civilization of your fortress. You can select your civilization at the [[location|site selection]] screen. Different civilizations can have different items available when you [[embark]]. You will be forced to [[modding|mod]] if you wish to play as any other race.

==Types==

===Mountain Civilization (The [[dwarf|dwarves]])===

Mountain civilizations build fortresses on the edge of [[mountain]] ranges, smaller [[hillock]] villages in the hill-lands nearby, and great [[mountain halls]] deep inside the mountain.
Their settlements are represented by {{Tile|Ω|#aaa|#000}} and {{Tile|Ω|#555|#000}} on the world map. Mountain civilizations can be connected by either roads or tunnels during World Generation.

=== Plains Civilization (The [[human|humans]])===

Plains civilizations build wooden [[town]]s and farming [[hamlet]]s in the lowlands.
Their towns are represented by {{Tile|+|#aaa|#000}}, {{Tile|#|#aaa|#000}}, {{Tile|*|#aaa|#000}}, or {{Tile|☼|#fff|#000}}, depending on size, on the world map. Hamlets are represented by {{Tile|Æ|#770|#000}} tiles. During World Generation, wooded [[biome]]s near towns are often converted into grassy [[biome]]s, presumably due to the human's logging industry. Towns can be connected by roads during World Generation. Roads will also be built between towns and conquered sites located in mountains or forests.

=== Forest Civilization (The [[elf|elves]])===

Forest civilizations build [[forest retreat]]s, large outdoor structures of trees planted in rows, in the middle of heavily forested areas.
Their settlements are represented by {{Tile|î|#ff0|#000}} and {{Tile|¶|#ff0|#000}} on the world map.

=== Evil Civilization (The [[goblin|goblins]])===

Evil civilizations build huge overworld [[dark fortress]]es and smaller [[dark pit]]s. They are represented by {{Tile|П|#f0f|#000}} and {{Tile|º|#707|#000}}, respectively. Dark towers are often populated by a mix of races since goblins are keen on <s>kidnapping</s> rescuing children from other civilizations. These evil settlements can be connected via tunnels during World Generation.

=== Skulking Civilization (The [[kobold]]s)===

Skulking civilizations populate [[cave]]s and steal items from nearby civilizations. Cave residents do not show as neighbours on the embark screen, and in default [[advanced world generation|world-gen settings]], the caves themselves are hidden from the map.

=== Unnamed, Primitive Civilizations===

Sometimes unnamed tribes appear on the civilization screen, which are peopled by various other {{catlink|Humanoids|humanoids}} resembling animals. Unlike the other civilizations listed, these unnamed civilizations spawn underground, forming small camps. The creatures that form these civilizations include:
* [[Amphibian man]]
* [[Reptile man]]
* [[Rodent man]]
* [[Cave fish man]]
* [[Cave swallow man]]
* [[Olm man]]
* [[Serpent man]]
* [[Bat man]]
* [[Antman]]

'''Surroundings''' affect the types of [[crop|plant]] life, wild [[animal]]s and [[creatures]] which will appear in play within a given [[biome]]. It is possible to start a [[fortress]] that overlaps multiple alignment types (for example a terrifying [[forest]] and a calm [[shrubland]]). Some players consider this desirable, as it provides diversity in your little corner of the world, but it also has its dangers in the form of more ferocious wildlife.

Some plants and animals are unique to a certain type of surroundings and will only be found if those surroundings are present on the map. Note that most creatures also require a specific [[climate]] to spawn in. Again, it's important to check the specific biomes making up your site. Once a [[creature]] spawns on the map, it is under no compulsion to stay in its own biome and can roam as it pleases. Because of this, the specifics of what means what can be difficult to pin down sometimes.

== Combinations of surroundings ==

{| {{prettytable}}
|-style="background:#dddddd"
|style="background:#aaaaaa"| ||'''Benign'''||'''Neutral'''||'''Savage'''
|-
|style="background:#dddddd"|'''Good'''||Serene||Mirthful||Joyous Wilds
|-
|style="background:#dddddd"|'''Neutral'''||Calm||Wilderness||Untamed Wilds
|-
|style="background:#dddddd"|'''Evil'''||Sinister||Haunted||Terrifying
|}

===Neutral===

:Including {{DFtext|Calm|7:0}}, {{DFtext|Wilderness|2:0}} and {{DFtext|Untamed wilds|6:1}}

'''Neutral''' regions are the easiest to understand. They generally mimic the real world, with recognizable wildlife. They can be quite dangerous depending on the region, holding anything from the generally non-aggressive but physically powerful [[gorilla]]s and [[elephant]]s to the very aggressive and very dangerous [[giant eagle]]s. As one might expect, ''Benign Neutral'' zones are really very safe, while ''Savage Neutral'' areas can pose some major difficulties, depending on the dominating climate, landforms, [[giant badger|or]] [[giant kea|wildlife]]. You'll find most of the standard aboveground plants in these alignments, such as [[prickle berry|prickle berries]], [[rope reed]], [[wild strawberry|wild strawberries]] and the like.

===Good===

:Including {{DFtext|Serene|1:1}}, {{DFtext|Mirthful|2:1}} and {{DFtext|Joyous Wilds|3:1}}

'''Good''' biomes tend to have less aggressive and weaker [[creatures]], except for the [[unicorn]]. Good regions also support the wild [[sun berry]], which makes the best [[alcohol]] in the game. There are generally slight changes between ''Benign Good'' and ''Savage Good''.

====Distinctive flora & fauna====
* Animals: [[mountain gnome]], [[satyr]], [[unicorn]], [[merperson]], [[gorlak]]
* Plants: [[sun berry]], [[bubble bulb]], [[downy grass]]
* Trees: [[feather tree]]
* Vermin: [[fluffy wambler]], [[fairy]], [[pixie]]

===Evil===

:Including {{DFtext|Sinister|5:0}}, {{DFtext|Haunted|5:1}} and {{DFtext|Terrifying|5:1}}

'''Evil''' regions are much more <s>dangerous</s> [[fun]] than their ''Neutral'' and ''Good'' counterparts across the board. At their root, ''Evil'' regions are modified ''Neutral'' regions. In addition to a pack of other [[creatures]] that are nasty, dangerous, and spiteful such as [[beak dog]]s, [[harpy|harpies]], and [[ogre]]s, ''Evil'' regions may modify their ''Neutral'' base by infecting many (but not all) of the indigenous [[creatures]] with various forms of [[undead|undeath]].

The [[undead]] cannot be killed through conventional means; dismemberment reanimates the individual body parts, creating even more enemies than before. They must be either butchered and tanned, exposed to magma, [[Dwarven atom smasher|smashed under a drawbridge]], or repeatedly pulped with blunt damage, in order to kill them permanently in certain (always evil) reanimating biomes. Any non-undead creature that dies in such a biome will reanimate as an undead creature after it is killed, including sentient beings, and any severed body parts and loose skin will also come to life as an individual enemy. Clearly, hunting undead animals for food is pointless, and finding kills in a place where things won't stay dead is suicidal. Furthermore, there is a good chance that even soldier dwarves will flee in terror from such abominations, a bad sign when the undead feel no emotion or fear. Aquatic creatures will be able to come ashore in their undead forms, so expect to deal with that if you choose such a location for embark. The trees at embark may all be dead, and though they can be cut down for logs, will not regrow. Undead shrubs are useless for gathering, too.

Even the [[weather]] is dangerous; clouds of creeping murk can inflict various [[syndrome]]s on par with those of [[forgotten beast]]s, or instantly transform creatures into freakishly powerful thralls. Evil rains may also inflict random syndromes, albeit less severe ones, and always cause strong unhappy [[thought]]s and a desire to wash. Evil rain won't refill pools, but a single biome may have both evil and regular rain, even at the same time.

Because of the inhospitability of evil regions, even ''Benign Evil'' is very difficult for beginning players to earn a niche to work in, so it should be reserved for a challenge play only.

====Distinctive flora & fauna====
* Animals: [[ogre]], [[dark gnome]], [[beak dog]], [[foul blendec]], [[grimeling]], [[harpy]], [[troll]], [[strangler]], [[nightwing]], [[ice wolf]], [[blizzard man]], [[sea monster]], [[manera]]
* Plants: [[sliver barb]], [[staring eyeball]], [[wormy tendril]]
* Trees: [[glumprong]]
* Vermin: [[demon rat]], [[blood gnat]], [[knuckle worm]], [[phantom spider]]

===Savage===
: Including {{DFtext|Untamed Wilds|6:1}}, {{DFtext|Joyous Wilds|3:1}} and {{DFtext|Terrifying|5:1}}
'''Savage''' surroundings are typically more dangerous than their Neutral or Benign counterparts, due to the naturally occurring creatures found therein. Savage regions contain many giant versions of normal wildlife, as well as sentient humanoid versions. A "Savage Good" region is called Joyous Wilds, a "Savage Neutral" region is called Untamed Wilds, and a "Savage Evil" region is called Terrifying (and is the most dangerous alignment by far, if you couldn't tell by the name).

Civilisations typically do not settle in high-savagery regions, except for [[elf|elves]] who are naturally at peace with animals.

====Distinctive flora & fauna====
* Animals: [[giant eagle]], [[giant cheetah]], [[giant leopard]], [[giant jaguar]], [[giant tiger]], [[giant lion]], [[tigerman]], [[slug man]], [[snail man]], [[leech man]], [[giant desert scorpion]], [[sasquatch]], [[sea serpent]]
* Plants: [[whip vine]]
* Trees: [[highwood]]
* Vermin: [[two-legged rhino lizard]], [[moghopper]], [[fox squirrel]], [[acorn fly]]

'''Adamantine''' is a rare, high-value [[metal]] which is impossibly lightweight, strong, and sharp. Adamantine is refined from raw adamantine, and can be woven into [[cloth]] or [[smelter|smelted]] into wafers, useful for making almost any item in the game. [[Armor]] and edged-[[weapons]] made from adamantine are absurdly valuable and wonderfully effective.

For more information on its whereabouts and other [[Fun]] information, see '''[[raw adamantine]]'''.

== Processing ==
Unlike what a player would expect, one does not simply make adamantine wafers directly from raw adamantine. You must first extract adamantine strands from the raw adamantine, and those are then processed into wafers or cloth.

Adamantine strands are extracted from [[raw adamantine]] at a [[craftsdwarf's workshop]] by a [[strand extractor]]. Strand extraction is an extremely tedious process for an unskilled laborer, making it potentially worthwhile to focus extraction experience on one or two individual dwarves. Extracted strands are considered a special metallic form of [[thread]], and after extraction can either be woven into adamantine cloth at a [[loom]] or smelted into adamantine [[bar|wafer]]s at a [[smelter]]; thankfully these tasks are performed just as quickly as other weaving and smelting jobs.

Given this extra step of extraction before the smelting phase, most players will want to build additional craftsdwarf's workshops and stockpiles near the smelters and forges. Note that the strands of adamantine are stored in cloth/thread stockpiles. When processing adamantine it is a good idea to smelt the strands into wafers as fast as possible, as your medical dwarves may use your valuable adamantine strands for [[suturing]] wounds, since to them, it's just another type of [[thread]].

Adamantine cloth is used to make ultra high-value clothing, but it is no more resistant to [[wear]] than less exotic materials. Adamantine wafers are functionally identical to metal [[bar]]s and can be used to forge the full range of metal goods, but are far smaller in size, requiring about three times as many units of material per unit as regular metal bars:
* [[weapon token|Weapons]], [[armor token|armor/clothing]], and [[trap component token|trap components]] require the item's MATERIAL_SIZE in wafers/units of cloth
* Most types of furniture ([[door]], [[floodgate]], [[throne]], [[coffin]], [[table]], [[chest]], [[bin]], [[armor stand]], [[weapon rack]], [[cabinet]], [[statue]], [[anvil]], [[barrel]], [[pipe section]], [[hatch cover]], [[grate]], [[quern]], [[millstone]], and [[slab]]) require 9 wafers.
* [[Cage]]s, [[minecart]]s and [[wheelbarrow]]s require 6 wafers.
* [[Block]]s, [[chain]]s, and [[Siege engine|ballista]] arrowheads require 4 wafers.
* [[Animal trap]]s, [[bucket]]s, [[mechanism]]s, and [[crutch]]es require 3 wafers.
* [[Backpack]]s and [[quiver]]s require 2 units of cloth, and [[splint]]s require 2 wafers.
* All other items require 1 wafer.
* [[Strange mood]]s currently require 1 wafer, regardless of the end product.

== Application ==
Adamantine has extreme [[material science|material properties]]: it is nigh weightless (weighing about as much as [[wikipedia:Cork (material)|cork]]), extremely strong, and razor sharp. These properties make it ideal for edged [[weapon]]s and [[armor]]. These properties likewise make it near useless for blunt weapons, which will simply bounce off of foes: considering the lethality of [[hammerer]] and [[fortress guard]] beatings, this may be the point. [[Armor]] made of adamantine provides unmatched protection against slashing and piercing attacks, but blunt attacks and ranged weapons have high armor penetration capacity, so a full kit of adamantine armor is nonetheless not a recipe for combat invulnerability.

Because the metal's material properties are irrelevant in other applications and because it's so rare and hard to produce, using adamantine for other things is generally a waste. Adamantine statues are ten times as valuable as [[gold]] ones, but are prohibitively expensive to produce, requiring nine wafers per statue. Some of the highest values per wafer for a normal adamantine product can be realised by forging adamantine [[flask]]s or [[trap component|large serrated discs]]. However, by the time you have adamantine available you're likely not to be in serious need of such valuable export products. By far, the most [[wealth]] can be generated by adding adamantine to [[artifact]]s -- a single stone, wafer, block or bolt of cloth can add hundreds of thousands of dwarfbucks in value, making your fortress the envy of all the [[forgotten beast|neighbors]].

==Origins of Adamantine and Slade==
{{D for Dwarf}}
Back in the mists of time, the Gods decided to create the World. To do so they had to find a way to heat it in the cold voids of space. Demonkind had already forged their own world out of the vile substance [[Slade]], a stone anathema to all creation and only able to be worked through the vile rituals they had created, for slade was truly "dead" stone, with no life in it at all.

Deciding both to imprison their greatest enemies and to create a home for their creations, the Gods poured into the skies of the Demons' world "living" stone (known to mortals as [[semi-molten rock]] - rock burning hot with the fresh life of Creation). The Gods knew that if it were not constantly heated, this living rock would cool, and yet the Demons, fools that they were, constantly attacked the living rock, not realizing that their attacks simply heated the rock again and again, keeping it alive. Unfortunately, as the Gods began to pour more and more of the rock onto their creation, they found it quickly lost its life when removed too far from the Demons. It would only remelt once it touched the living rock, creating vast seas of magma that heated the tunnels above. Worse, the living rock itself had been disturbed by this process, creating gaping holes through which the Demons escaped, killing and maiming the first creations of the Gods, warping those they could find into the terrible Forgotten Beasts, leaving the [[Titan]]s safe on the surface.

Knowing this state of affairs could not last if their weaker creations, the first mortals, were to survive, the Gods created a new substance, imbued with their power: Adamantine. The beautiful aqua-colored ore was poured into the holes, sealing the entrances that the living rock could no longer seal, preventing the Demons from escaping, for its power totally repelled Demonkind.

Unfortunately, as time passed and the first mortals began to carve their civilization from both the surface and the underworld, they discovered the vast shafts of this amazing substance and began to mine it, instantly realizing its divine potency. In doing so, they removed the great barriers the gods had placed in order to keep the Demons sealed. The Demons rose up, slaughtering thousands and escaping into the World, often rising to lead mortal civilizations, such as that of the Goblins. Upon these sites they raised towers carved from the vile Slade that only they could work. Brave adventurers and champions of the Gods forged special swords made from the divine Adamantine and ventured into these dark places to seal the Demons within hell once more. Leaving their swords buried in these places, those who survived swore to defend them for all eternity, binding themselves with oaths of such might that they surpassed death itself. They remain, even today, as zombies and skeletons, driven by their undying thought "none must take the sword!" and nothing more. These undead are totally obsessed with their duty to defend the ancient demonic structures from all interlopers and have been the death of many an unwary explorer.

In retrospect, all this could probably have been avoided if the Gods had bothered to make their all-powerful metal capable of withstanding the swing of a copper pick.

==The Great Adamantine Space Elevator==
{{D for Dwarf}}
[http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=61507.0]
In a great fluke, a new world was created in the midst of Armok shaving. No one quite understands why this happened, but the whisker of the holy one landed vertically. The material can only be described as a super adamantine. It is over 2000 z-levels high. And the map continues on.

Year after year, the dwarves of [SUBJECT CIVILIZATION HERE] send an expedition out into the world in order to ascertain the fate of last year's expedition. It has long-since been forgotten exactly when this series of fruitless expeditions started, but the dwarves are a sort that demand an answer.

It happens year after year, when they head northeast to the ominous shrubland that has been known only in name: "The Hill of Spit." The hill lies beyond a ruined elven settlement, a stone's throw away from a brook that has come to be known as "Troublemysteries." By the time they arrive, it is already too late.

They embark year after year, and there they stand, awe-struck with their implements of dwarven duty left undisturbed at their feet. All about them are the decrepit wagons and bleached bones of those who heralded their grim arrival -- barrels filled with rot and worm, picks covered in rust and dust. There they stand with their eyes open wide and jaws agape, and they stare upward into the dome of the heavens. What they see is beyond the ken of mortal beard. It reaches from the ground higher than any bird has flown; higher than any cloud has drifted; higher than any man, dwarf, beast or monster has ever or will ever ascend, twisting and writhing upward in ways that can only transfix the gaze of unwary observers in their fundamentally impossible geometries -- a spiraling needle of pure adamantine, ascending beyond the vanishing-point into the sky.

They stand there, motionless and breathless, and wait only for time to wear them down into the dust of the earth from whence they came, leaving that siren spire standing amidst a graveyard of wagons and barrels to call more of their bearded kind to an emaciated doom.

Another year, another expedition unheard of, another question unanswered, another expedition prepared.

Item tokens are the first part in defining the target item in reactions, containing the item type and subtype. They determine the most basic form of item, and made more specific by [[material token]]s. Most item tokens do not have a subtype; for these, either NO_SUBTYPE or NONE '''must''' be specified.

Nearly all items are made of a [[Material token|material]], though several types expect a creature ID and caste ID (e.g. [[Ant|ANT:SOLDIER]]) instead. This currently does not work correctly{{bug|4973}}.

Actually defining an item in item raws is done with [[item definition token]]s.

{{Migrated_article}}
{{quality|unrated}}{{av}}
The default plants are stored in the plant_standard.txt file, while grasses are stored in plant_grasses.txt.

==Basic Tokens==
These tokens are specified for all plants and define their most basic characteristics.

{| {{prettytable}}
|- style='background-color:#ddd'
! width="20%" | Token
! width="20%" | Arguments
! width="60%" | Description

|-

| ALL_NAMES
|
*name
| Sets the NAME, NAME_PLURAL, and ADJ to the specified string.

|-
| BASIC_MAT
|
* [[Material token|material]]
| Sets the basic material of the plant. According to Toady, you can use other materials (for instance, iron) but the game may hiccup on plants that aren't structurally plants. For crops, said material should have [STRUCTURAL_PLANT_MAT] to permit proper stockpiling. Generally, this should be "LOCAL_PLANT_MAT:material_name", using a material defined using MATERIAL, USE_MATERIAL, or USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE.

Ghost

2014-08-25T23:42:45Z

Samanato: /* Bugs */ are fixed as of .40.10

{{quality|unrated}}{{av}}
{{minorspoiler}}

After the death of an intelligent creature (or a dwarf), its soul may occasionally come back as a '''ghost''' {{Tile|Ñ|7:1}}. In a Dwarven fortress, dead dwarves have a chance of returning as ghosts if they are not properly [[coffin|buried]] or [[memorial|memorialized]] after their death. Ghosts often take to haunting their relatives and friends, following them around on the same tile, as well as lingering wistfully near areas they frequented in life or the spot they died. However, not all ghosts bear their anguish calmly.

Ghosts are able to pass through walls and cannot be harmed by [[Dwarven Atom Smasher|atom-smashing]]. They can be targeted in the Squad kill screen ({{K|s}},{{K|k}}) even though they won't actually be attacked. Ghosts can be dismissed by burying the remains or by building engraving rock [[slab|slabs]] in memory of the deceased.

==Paranormal Activity==

Ghosts haunting the fortress will occasionally perform some of the following actions, based on their temperament:
* <ghost> sucks the wind out of <dwarf>
* <ghost> raises a high fever in <dwarf>
* <ghost> makes <dwarf> convulse and retch
* <ghost> inflicts excruciating pain upon <dwarf>
* <ghost> causes a spell of dizziness in <dwarf>
* <ghost> paralyzes <dwarf>
* <ghost> stuns <dwarf>
* <ghost> batters <dwarf>
* <dwarf> is throwing a tantrum, possessed by <ghost>
* <ghost> has risen and is haunting the fortress!
* <ghost> is following <dwarf>
* <item> has been misplaced. No doubt <ghost> is to blame!
* <ghost> is throwing objects around the fortress!
* <ghost> can be heard howling throughout the fortress!

The ghost's activities may be determined by the nature of its death and its [[personality trait]]s using the following table, ''in order'':

{| class="wikitable" width="70%" align="center"
! scope="col" align="left" width="17%" | Type
! scope="col" align="left" width="17%" | Cause
! scope="col" align="left" width="66%" | Effect
|-
|Murderous Ghost
|Had a fell mood, had low ALTRUISM, or slab/grave was deconstructed
|Murders dwarves.
|-
|Sadistic Ghost
|Had a macabre mood, or had low ALTRUISM
|Batters, scares and paralyses dwarves. Capable of scaring a dwarf to death.
|-
|Violent Ghost
|Was berserk, or had high ANGER_PROPENSITY
|Batters dwarves, often but not always removing limbs.
|-
|Moaning Spirit
|Was melancholy, or had high DEPRESSION_PROPENSITY
|Troubles one unfortunate dwarf at a time.
|-
|Howling Spirit
|Was stark raving mad, or had high STRESS_VULNERABILITY
|Makes sleeping difficult.
|-
|Angry Ghost
|Was possessed
|Batters dwarves.
|-
|Energetic Poltergeist
|Was in a fey mood, or had high ACTIVITY_LEVEL
|Topples furniture, such as chairs.
|-
|Secretive Poltergeist
|Was in a secretive mood, or had high BASHFUL
|''Misplaces'' Items.
|-
|Troublesome Poltergeist
|Had high IMMODERATION
|''Misplaces'' items, may topple furniture and pull levers.<sup>confirm?</sup>
|-
|Restless Haunt
|Had GREGARIOUSNESS at least as high as DUTIFULNESS, or never completed any jobs
|Drifts around place of death and frequented locations. Also haunts dwarves, causing unhappy thoughts.
|-
|Forlorn Haunt
|Did not satisfy any of the above checks
|Drifts around place of death and frequented locations.
|}

A "high" trait check will succeed 20% of the time for value of 76-90, 50% of the time for 91-99, and is guaranteed for 100. Similarly, a "low" trait check will succeed 20% of the time for 10-24, 50% of the time for 1-9, and always for 0. Having zero ALTRUISM will always result in a Murderous Ghost, never a Sadistic Ghost.

If a ghost is put to rest and subsequently re-raised (by deconstructing its coffin or slab), it will return as a Murderous Ghost.

==Adventure mode==

If you revisit your fortress during adventure mode, the ghosts found previously will still remain. Although, take care! The ghosts may attempt to 'scare you to death' almost instantly.

=="Ghostly" Dwarves==
When a dwarf dies and becomes a ghost, its Legends mode entry lists it as a "ghostly" dwarf. All actions taken by the dwarf during both life and death will then be attributed the ghostly dwarf. This will generate messages like "the ghostly dwarf Urist McHauntypants arrived in Cagesyrups" even when the dwarf was obviously not a ghost yet when it immigrated.

== Science on Ghosts ==
Cave-ins do not kill ghosts, perhaps because they can walk through walls already.

Ghosts are put to rest when any part of their body is put in a burial receptacle.{{verify}} For example, should a dwarf lose a toe in a fight before dying, the toe can be recovered to put its ghost to rest.

Ghosts will also be put to rest if they are properly [[memorial|memorialized]], which is usually preferable if the dwarf is not easily accessible.

Ghosts can open doors, even forbidden ones (leaving them unlocked).

Ghosts can be frozen in water.

It is possible for a ghost to become the outpost liaison of a civilization.

Ghostly fisherdwarves will keep fishing in the afterlife, and ghostly animal trainers [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=127659 will gladly train your captured animals for you.]

|-
| {{text anchor|ADVENTURE_TIER}}
| order
| Allows adventure mode for entities with sites. Dwarves, Elves, and Humans take up tier 3, 2, and 1 respectively. Order doesn't need to be maintained; a custom creature can have a tier of 3000 and still work even if it's the only custom creature.
[ADVENTURE_TIER:4]

|-
| {{text anchor|INDIV_CONTROLLABLE}}
|
| Allows the race to be played as an "outsider" in adventure mode. Not having this specified in one of the entities will cause the Adventure mode option to disappear.

|-
| {{text anchor|CIV_CONTROLLABLE}}
|
| Allows fortress mode. If multiple entities have the CIV_CONTROLLABLE token, than in embark mode the specific civs can be chosen by + or - on the civ list screen (by pressing tab), though it will not state what entity the civs belong to. To check which one, tab to the neighbors screen: the entity's race will be at the top. At least one civilization must have this token.

|-
| {{text anchor|CREATURE}}

| Valid site types are DARK_FORTRESS (π), CAVE (•), CAVE_DETAILED (Ω), TREE_CITY (î), and CITY (#). Also recognizes PLAYER_FORTRESS, and MONUMENT, though these likely will not work. FORTRESS is no longer a valid entry, instead castles are controlled by BUILDS_OUTDOOR_FORTIFICATIONS. Defaults to CITY. Selecting CAVE causes the classic kobold behavior of not showing of on the "neighbors" section of the site selection screen. Selecting DARK_FORTRESS also allows generation of [[underworld spire|certain other structures]].

|-
| {{text anchor|MAX_SITE_POP_NUMBER}}
| number
| Max population per individual site. Generic site types will not hold any more than this number of entities. Must be at least 80 for towns to be generated. In general, lower pop numbers mean more sprawl, and higher numbers mean more needing to crawl when entering town stores, which are not affected by this cap. Defaults to 50.
[MAX_SITE_POP_NUMBER:200]

|-
| {{text anchor|MAX_STARTING_CIV_NUMBER}}
| number
| Max number of entities to spawn at world generation. Worldgen picks civs in some sequential order from the raws. Once it reaches the end of the list, it will begin again at the top. Setting this number lower than 100, like say, 7, will cause worldgen to skip over this civ for placement if there are already 7 civs of this type. Note that if all civs are set to lower numbers, and the number of starting civs is set higher than the maximum possible amount of civs in total, it will gracefully stop placing civs and get down to the history aspect of worldgen. Defaults to 3.

|-
| {{text anchor|ETHIC}}
|
*behavior
*reaction
| Sets the civ's view of [[ethic]]s (certain behaviors), from capital punishment to completely acceptable. This also causes the civ to look upon opposing ethics with disfavor, if their reaction to it is opposing, and when at extremes (one ACCEPTABLE, another civ UNTHINKABLE for example) they will often go to war over it.
[ETHIC:EAT_SAPIENT_KILL:ACCEPTABLE]

|-
| {{text anchor|VALUE}}
|
*value
*number
| Sets the civ's cultural values. Numbers range from -50 (completely anathema) to 0 (neutral) to 50 (highly valued).
[VALUE:CRAFTSMANSHIP:50]

|
| Makes the civ's traders accept offered goods.

|-
| {{text anchor|WANDERER}}, {{text anchor|BEAST_HUNTER}}, {{text anchor|SCOUT}}
|
| The civ will send out these sorts of adventurers in worldgen. This seems to increase Tracker skill. These types of adventurers will sometimes be seen leading a battle (instead of war leaders or generals) in remote locations during world-gen, in charge of the the defenders.

|-
| {{text anchor|ABUSE_BODIES}}
|
| The civilization will mutilate bodies when they are the victors in history-gen warfare, such as hanging bodies from trees, putting them on spikes, and so forth. Adventurers killed in Adventurer mode will sometimes be impaled on spikes wherever they died, with or without this token, and regardless of whether they actually antagonized the townspeople.

|-
| {{text anchor|ACTIVE_SEASON}}
| season
| the season when the civ is most active: when they will trade, interact with you via diplomats, and/or invade you. Civs can have multiple season entries. Note: If multiple caravans arrive at the same time, you are able to select which civ to trade with at the depot menu. ACTIVE_SEASON tags may be changed for a currently active fort.
[ACTIVE_SEASON:AUTUMN]

|-
| {{text anchor|AMBUSHER}}
|
| When invading sneaks around and shoots at straggling members of your society. They will spawn on the edge of the map and will only be visible when one of their party are spotted; this can be quite dangerous to undefended trade depots.

|-
| {{text anchor|AT_PEACE_WITH_WILDLIFE}}
|
| Will not attack wildlife, and will not be attacked by them, even if you have them in your party. This can be somewhat disconcerting when attacked by bears in the forest and your elven ally sits back and does nothing.

|-
| {{text anchor|BABYSNATCHER}}
|
| Sends thieves to steal babies. Also sends ambush parties to harass your civilization. Without this tag, enemy civs will only siege, and will siege as early as they would otherwise babysnatch. This can happen as early as the first year of the fort! In addition, babysnatcher civs will snatch children during worldgen, allowing them to become part of the civ if they do not escape.

Note: If the playable civ in Fortress Mode has this tag (i.e. you add BABYSNATCHER to the Dwarf entity) then the roles will be reversed and elves and humans will siege and ambush and goblins will trade with you.

|-
| {{text anchor|BUILDS_OUTDOOR_FORTIFICATIONS}}
|
| Makes the civilization build castles and [[mead hall]]s, and (unlike older versions) only functions when the type of site built is a hamlet/town.

| Sends thieves to steal items. This will also occur in history generation, and thieves will have the "thief" profession. Items stolen in history gen will be scattered around that creature's home.

|-
| {{text anchor|LOCAL_BANDITRY}}
|
| Causes the entity to send out patrols that can ambush adventurers. Will cause cities to be hostile to adventurers whenever they enter, regardless of race or nationality. Adding this tag to playable entities will also make adventurers with this token willing to move-attack non-hostile villagers, rather than having to make an aimed attack.

|-
| {{text anchor|MERCHANT_BODYGUARDS}}
|
| Caravan merchants are accompanied by soldiers.

|-
| {{text anchor|MERCHANT_NOBILITY}}

Note: hostile civs require that the population trigger be fulfilled as well as at least one other trigger before attacking.

|-
| {{text anchor|PROGRESS_TRIGGER_PRODUCTION}}
| level
| 0 to 5, civ will come to site once created wealth has reached that level. If multiple progress triggers exist for a civ, it will come when any one of them is fulfilled instead of waiting for all of them to be reached. A value of 0 disables the trigger. 1 corresponds to 5000☼ created wealth, 2 to 25000☼, 3 to 100000☼, 4 to 200000☼, and 5 to 300000☼. Progress triggers may be changed, added, or deleted for a currently active fort.

|-
| {{text anchor|PROGRESS_TRIGGER_TRADE}}
| level
| 0 to 5, civ will come to site once exported goods has reached that level. If multiple progress triggers exist for a civ, it will come when any one of them is fulfilled instead of waiting for all of them to be reached. A value of 0 disables the trigger. 1 corresponds to 500☼ exported wealth, 2 to 2500☼, 3 to 10000☼, 4 to 20000☼, and 5 to 30000☼. Progress triggers may be changed, added, or deleted for a currently active fort.

|-
| {{text anchor|PROGRESS_TRIGGER_POP_SIEGE}}
| level
| 0 to 5, civ will begin to send sieges against the player civ when this level is reached if it is hostile.

|-
| {{text anchor|SITE_GUARDIAN}}
|
| Guards certain special sites, such as a [[vault]] belonging to a [[demon]] allied with a [[deity]]. Used in generated divine entities.

|-
| {{text anchor|SKULKING}}
|
| This makes the severity of attacks depend on the extent of item/baby thievery rather than the passage of time. Makes trade impossible with the related civilization.

|-
| {{text anchor|TREE_CAP_DIPLOMACY}}
|
| Visiting diplomats impose tree cutting quotas; without this, they will simply compliment your fortress and leave. Also causes the diplomat to make unannounced first contact at the very beginning of the first Spring after your fortress becomes a Barony.

|-
| {{text anchor|LAYER_LINKED}}
|
| Defines if a civilization is a hidden subterranean entity, such as batman civilizations.

|-
| {{text anchor|UNDEAD_CANDIDATE}}
|
| Unknown. Possibly makes this creature available as a "Corpse" (e.g. Human Corpse) for necromancers in adventure mode.

Dwarf Fortress is a constant work in progress, and is thus full of '''bugs'''. Some of them are minor and completely harmless, some are small and annoying, and some are major and even game-changing. Some of the best-known bugs are compiled below; an official compilation of all bugs, and their development status, can be found on the [http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/my_view_page.php bug tracker] and an informal [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=111051.0 poll of the worst bugs] is available in the forums. Please do '''not''' report bugs here; they should be sent to the [http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/my_view_page.php Mantis BT] instead. If you have issues signing up for the bug tracker, see the [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?board=6.0 forum bug tracker board] for instructions (but don't report bugs on the forum either).

Some bugs {{dffd|6741|were fixed in v0.34}} by a temporary binary patch made by Quietust and other users; hopefully these fixes will be rolled into v0.40 at some point.

== Severe bugs ==
These bugs can significantly interfere with play.

* {{bug|link=1|7161}} Morale is screwy.
** May be partially fixed in .40.10. Bugfixes for morale are ongoing.
** Workaround: mod creatures to have natural Discipline skill
** Workaround: barracks training raises Discipline
** Workaround: continual exposure to sentient corpses raises Discipline (along with feelings of horror)
* {{bug|link=1|7185}} Scared traders immediately scuttle wagons and leave.
* {{bug|link=1|6586}} Dwarves climb trees and fall out of them for no obvious reason.
** This may be partially fixed; more information is needed (see bug report).
** Workaround: make sure there is always at least one meeting zone or sculpture garden where dwarves can idle.
* {{bug|link=1|7447}} Numerous problems reported with [[brewing]].
* {{bug|link=1|5895}} Hauled items are "unavailable" while a dwarf is lugging them across the map in a bin/barrel/etc.
** Workaround: new STORE_DIST_* settings in [[d_init.txt]] can tweak the behavior.
** Workaround: clever [[Stockpile Design]]s can reduce the impact.

== New bugs ==
These bugs are new to v0.40. (There are many more; these are just a few of the most prominent.)

* {{bug|link=1|6704}} Already-felled trees "collapse" when mining under their former roots
* {{bug|link=1|7274}} Dwarves occasionally attempt to perform jobs at a distance, with predictably poor results
** Related to {{bug|link=1|7825}} marked as fixed in 0.40.07 -- #7274 needs verification.
* {{bug|link=1|7651}} Some embark-purchased animals won't [[breed]].
* {{bug|link=1|7444}} Sparring dwarves can knock each other through walls with charge attacks.
* {{bug|link=1|7574}} Creatures assigned to burrows/pastures can become accident-prone.

== Lingering bugs ==
These bugs are not new to v0.40, but have been confirmed as still existing. Any workarounds that involve binary patches or DFhack will not work until those tools have been updated to the new version.

* {{bug|link=1|1451}} Military equipment interferes with civilian equipment (picks/axes/crossbows/quivers). It is not possible to use a single axe for both [[wood cutter|wood cutting]] and combat, or a single pick for both [[miner|mining]] and combat. Crossbows in the hands of [[hunter]]s can also cause problems.
* {{bug|link=1|4552}} Siegers waiting by bodies of dead leaders.
* {{bug|link=1|412}} Nobles job priority is weird (trading, diagnose, talking with liaison and attend meeting jobs have extremely low priority). Many very necessary jobs get glutted out by insignificant things like hauling spare stone around, requiring labor management when you want something done.
* {{bug|link=1|2712}} Weapons, especially whips, cut through steel armor like butter.
**Workaround: appropriate [[modding]] to [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=115448 nerf] these weapons
* {{bug|link=1|2780}} Pond/pool populations (e.g. pond turtles) do not replenish, gradually become [[extinct]]
** Supposedly fixed in 0.40.01 but reported to still be happening with ponds (possibly fixed for rivers only?)
* {{bug|link=1|535}} Equipping weapons/armor on military is erratic. This is a long-standing bug that has been slowly but surely rolled back.
* {{bug|link=1|296}} Pools/smears/spatters of blood, dust and other materials multiply themselves, get tracked around too much. [[Contaminant]] physics are strange in Dwarf Fortress; instead of washing away, when exposed to running water, it will actually multiply to other tiles.
**Workaround: routinely run [https://github.com/DFHack/dfhack/blob/master/Readme.rst#clean clean] in [[DFHack]]
* {{bug|link=1|4550}} Dodging into river/lava/pit etc. Apparently, dwarves are stupid. Related: they tend to get thrown off of [[waterfall]]s and die from fall damage because they did not account for the current.
* {{bug|link=1|425}} Dwarves perform [[cleaning]] erratically at best.
**Workaround: routinely run [https://github.com/DFHack/dfhack/blob/master/Readme.rst#clean clean] in [[DFHack]]
* {{bug|link=1|5986}} Designating large areas for smoothing slows game to a crawl.
* {{bug|link=1|136}} When embarking on large area, DF hits 2GB memory limit and crashes.
**Workaround: Until a permanent fix is made, the player can use [http://www.ntcore.com/4gb_patch.php NTCore's 4GB fix], which will not only increase the memory limit, but will improve performance overall. (This is not a permanent solution for the devs; it could lead to unforeseen problems if incorporated within the .exe downloaded from the server.)
* {{bug|link=1|797}} Animals repeatedly path through "tightly closed" [[door]]s causing lag.
* {{bug|link=1|4065}} Untradeable creatures (hostiles, wild animals) are released from [[cage]]s when the cages are ordered taken to the [[trade depot]].

== Unverified bugs ==
These bugs were known to exist in v0.34, and ''may or may not'' still exist. They need to be verified. Any workarounds that involve binary patches or DFhack will not work until those tools have been updated to the new version.

* {{bug|link=1|1582}} Injured dwarf in bed in stocked hospital ignored by idle doctors. Medical jobs are too low-priority, and will be ignored in favor of pretty much everything else, hauling included, forcing players that need to administer medical care to disable all other labors; and even then, doctors tend to idle a bit in between their jobs.
* {{bug|link=1|5097}} Names overwriting text with TrueType and {{bug|link=1|5696}} strange gaps in report texts.
**Workaround: Hitting F12 to toggle True Type can often get you around this problem.

Samanato: some plant products are no longer brought, bug 7863

{{Migrated_article}}

{{Creaturelookup/0
|wiki=yes}}
{{av}}
{{creaturedesc}}

Elves are <s>smelly, stuck-up, arrogant [[tree]]-fondling hippies</s> humanoids dedicated to the protection of ''their'' concept of nature (focused on trees).

Elven caravans arrive in late spring. During [[trade]], elves will '''not''' accept [[wood]], wooden items or any goods [[Decoration|decorated]] with wood. This includes ''clear'' and ''crystal'' [[glass]] items and [[soap]], because wood-derived [[lye]] and [[pearlash]] are used in their production, however, ash-[[glaze]]d items are acceptable. Elves bring their own "grown" wooden items. Those were presumably produced without cutting down trees. Elves will accept elf-made wooden items in trade, but not wooden items made by anyone else. Be careful not to offer them your wooden [[bin]]s or [[barrel]]s, or [[quiver]]s containing wooden [[bolt]]s/[[arrow]]s. If the contents of bins are marked for trade individually, and are not wooden themselves, the elves will not care that you used wooden bins to haul the goods to the depot. You may also steal from them or even kill/torture them without fear of repercussion: merchants will not resist if you seize their goods and will not competently fight back if attacked.

Offending elves by attempting to trade wooden items normally causes them to refuse further trade this year and leave early. Repeatedly offending elves by attempting to trade wooden items may cause them to attack your fortress with an [[ambush]].

Elves will generally '''accept''' items made of green glass, stone, metal, bone and other refuse, silk, leather, plant fiber cloth, meat and fish, totems, and even plants. They will accept animals in trade, as long as those are not held in dwarf-made wooden [[Cage|cages]].

They also accept ''raw'' clear glass and ''raw'' crystal glass, even though they are made using [[pearlash]]. Despite the name, petrified wood is a kind of stone and therefore acceptable. (Apparently its okay if the tree died of natural causes a long time ago.)

Elves bring only plant-related and wood-related items, caged animals, various types of clay and sand.

They have no facial hair but rarely they have at least stubble.

Some <s>stupid, useless, treefondling traitors</s> dwarves will like elves for their ''grace''.

=== Trading ===

List of what you can expect in an average elven caravan:
*Wooden logs: Always useful. Quantity depending on how many logs you have already; lower means more. However, caravans with grown logs tend to be rare.
*Fruits and various other growths from [[tree]]s.
*Wooden containers: [[Container|chests]], [[cage]]s, [[bucket]]s, and [[barrel]]s. These all are useful.
*Soil types: [[sand]] in bags, various types of [[clay]]. Can be useful if you are lacking of either.
*[[Bag]]s and [[rope]]s made from plant cloth. You already should have those, but a few extra bags never hurt, although plant cloth bags are a bit expensive.
*A few exotic aboveground tame animals in cages. May be [[opossum|a]] [[stoat|disappointingly]] [[fox|useless]] [[hoary marmot|animal]] or [[Giant badger|an]] [[Giant tiger|incredibly]] [[Giant desert scorpion|awesome]] [[Giant eagle|one]].
*Caged tame [[vermin]], which has no real use aside from putting in a [[zoo]]. These have a habit of escaping from the cage as soon as the caravan arrives.{{bug|6343}}
*Rope reed [[clothing]], mildly useful if you are in lack of clothing and haven't bothered setting up a clothing industry.
*Wooden [[crutch]]es and [[Health_care#Splints|splint]]s, which are pretty handy for [[health care]] if you didn't make any.
*Wooden [[armor]] and [[weapon]]s, which are generally useless unless you are [[trap]]-happy, lack metal, or don't have enough wood to build spears for [[danger room]]s.
*And finally, plenty of useless crap which has no use at all (apart from being traded to the next caravan for actually useful stuff, but even then you can make crafts out of more valuable stuff than wood) and should be dumped into [[magma]] as soon as possible (along with the entire caravan if you desire). They include cloth [[craft]]s, wooden crafts, wooden [[Finished_goods#Toys|toys]]s, and wooden [[Finished_goods#Instruments|instrument]]s.

All wooden products made by elves are called "grown". Unlike regular wood, these may be traded back to the elves without repercussion.

==Ethics==

Elven [[ethics]] often differ from those of other races. Their position on moral philosophy will likely put them at odds with [[human]]s, [[goblin]]s, and sometimes [[kobold]]s and animal-people. They are likely to be friendly with [[dwarf|dwarves]], unless provoked, although a dwarven civilisation ''may'' be at war with elves in world-gen.

Elves are the only race which wholeheartedly accepts the devouring of enemy combatants. Looking in legends mode shows that an elven combatant will sometimes devour the other person they were fighting when they win. In spite of this, elves refuse to butcher and consume intelligent beings. Elves find torturing as an example acceptable, but condemn other forms of torture and consider torturing for information misguided. To elves, keeping any trophy of any kind is an unthinkable act. Elves begrudgingly allow for killing animals when done in self-defense, and the killing of other elves by an elf is justified if there is an extremely good reason for doing so. For elves, the killing of plants, ''especially'' trees, is unthinkable. On the other hand, the killing of neutral beings and enemies is acceptable. Elven society seems to be regulated by shame from the community, rather than by threat of punishment. As such, elves never offer serious or capital punishment to criminals; instead, elves found to have committed vandalism, trespassing or theft are reprimanded, while those convicted of treason, lying, breaking oaths, assault or participating in slavery are forced into exile.

Elves [[Personality_trait|value]] nature incredibly highly, and they also place a degree of value on family, eloquence, cunning, artwork, fairness, merriment, competition and romance. Elves do not especially respect commerce and have a dislike for self-control.

==Diplomats==
The elven diplomat will arrive approximately half way through the first month in Spring. If the player agrees to a treecutting quota, it will be visible after selecting the elves in the Civilizations screen and pressing Tab a few times.

==Bugs==
Elven caravans do not bring cloth, seeds or booze, and rarely bring grown wooden logs.{{bug|7863}}

Personality facet

2014-08-24T06:17:35Z

Samanato: /* Beliefs */ typo fixed in .40.05

{{Quality|Exceptional|16:12, 23 August 2014 (UTC)}}
{{av}}
__FORCETOC__
Dwarven '''personalities''' are determined by beliefs, goals, and facets. These are distinct from [[attributes]]. In general, personality traits do not have as important a gameplay effect as attributes, though many of the gameplay effects of personality traits are yet unknown.

Personality traits are shown in a dwarf's "thoughts and preferences" description page, which can be accessed by {{k|v}}iewing that dwarf then {{k|p}}, {{k|z}}, {{k|Enter}}, or from the {{k|u}}nit menu with {{k|v}}iew, {{k|Enter}}.

==Beliefs==

Each belief has a range from −50 to 50. The value triggers a report in "thoughts and preferences" depending on where it falls in these seven levels:

{| class="wikitable"
! Value Range !! Values in Range !! Probability !! Effect
|-
| +41 to +50 || 10 || 0.4% || Highest
|-
| +26 to +40 || 15 || 2% || Very High
|-
| +11 to +25 || 15 || 8.5% || High
|-
| −10 to +10 || 21 || 78% || Neutral
|-
| −25 to −11 || 15 || 8.5% || Low
|-
| −40 to −26 || 15 || 2% || Very Low
|-
| −50 to −41 || 10 || 0.4% || Lowest
|}

Beliefs are also influenced by cultural values via the use of the VALUE [[entity token]]. For example, dwarven civilizations hold craftsdwarfship in the highest regard, whereas goblins hold the ideas of fairness and sacrifice in utter disdain. If an individual dwarf's belief differs significantly from the civilization's beliefs, then that belief gets highlighted in cyan in the thought and personality screen.

Certain beliefs can conflict with personality facets — see below.

==Goals==
Some creatures dream of accomplishing certain goals in their life, and these goals can presumably affect their behavior.

If a creature has such dreams, they will be listed in the Thoughts and Preferences page.

If said goal has actually been fulfilled, the description will include "and this dream was realized".

==Facets==

Each personality facet has a value from 0 to 100. The value triggers a report in "thoughts and preferences" depending on where it falls in these seven levels:

{| class="wikitable"
! Value Range !! Values in Range !! Probability !! Effect
|-
| 91 to 100 || 10 || 0.4% || Highest
|-
| 76 to 90 || 15 || 2% || Very High
|-
| 61 to 75 || 15 || 8.5% || High
|-
| 40 to 60 || 21 || 78% || Neutral
|-
| 25 to 39 || 15 || 8.5% || Low
|-
| 10 to 24 || 15 || 2% || Very Low
|-
| 0 to 9 || 10 || 0.4% || Lowest
|}

The 40−60 range does not cause a report.

Facets are also influenced by species via the use of the PERSONALITY [[creature token]]. For example, dwarves are slightly more greedy than average with a median of 55 in that trait, whereas goblins aren't likely to help others out — their altruism median is a mere 25, and is capped at 50.

Facets also have an effect on which social skills are learned in social interaction, and determine whether certain actions may give a good or bad [[thought]]. Facets may have other, more subtle effects on creature behavior, which are currently not entirely understood.

Certain facets are capable of ''conflicting'' with the dwarf's beliefs. The effect of this is not yet known.

Undead

Samanato: need to verify other bugs

{{Quality|Superior|18:33, 23 August 2014 (UTC)}}
{{Migrated_article}}

{{av}}
The '''animated dead''' (or '''undead''') {{Tile|Ñ|3:0}} are the [[corpse|bodies]] of formerly living creatures animated through fell magic. These [[night creature|night creatures]] can be created intentionally by a [[necromancer]] to serve him, or arise naturally from the dark energies of [[surroundings|evil regions]].

==What is an undead?==
An undead may be formed of either the rotting husk or the bones and shell of a being. The former is considered a zombie, and the latter a skeleton. Although [[vampire]]s are no longer performing the bodily functions of a living being, they are not considered the "animated dead", this term being reserved for a corpse which has begun to move and act on its own or by the will of another, but lacking any form of intelligence beyond a primitive urge to hunt and kill any living thing it can find. Where zombies and skeletons cannot think or behave in any sophisticated manner beyond "kill everything", vampires are willful beings, generally indistinguishable from living persons (and capable of great deception to ensure that nobody learns about their condition). [[Ghost]]s are called Undead in-game, but they are also not considered animated dead (as they lack a corporeal form).

As long as the remains of a creature contain a body part capable of grasping, be it a hand or head or the entire upper half, those remains can be animated. This can lead to animated hands and heads, which seems comical until you consider the implications of a swarm of such monstrosities and the havoc that they might wreak. Even some parts of creatures which should be incapable of autonomous movement can be raised, such as the hair or skin or even ''[[mussel]] shells''. They are, however, predictably nonlethal, mostly serving as a B-movie terror monster to scare your dwarves into running around. A body part can be resurrected as a zombie even if it has already done so and been de-animated again. However, pulping damage (that is, "exploding into gore", "cloven asunder", "torn into shreds" and so on) to the head, lower body, or upper body will turn the corpse into a "mangled corpse", ensuring that the zombie cannot rise up again. Likewise, destroying the structural integrity of an animate body-part will stop its reanimation.

==Traits==
Upon animation, an undead gains a [[syndrome]] that fundamentally changes its physical characteristics and behaviour. Some of the traits they generally possess are:
*Severely increased [[attribute|strength and toughness]] and reduced [[speed]];
*Opposition to life;
*Lack of emotion, pain, thought, or need for sustenance or breath;
*Undead status (NOT_LIVING), sterility, and inability to attribute rust or gain.

Undead retain the wounds that killed them in life, as well as any they have sustained since or from a temporary de-animation. Undead vary in levels of strength depending on their form. Certain types of animal are likely the most dangerous that it is common to encounter, and can have dangerous strength, speed, aggression, and piercing attacks. The undead of butcherable creatures can still be butchered once de-animated, as long as they have not rotted; doing so will prevent them from re-animating again, though their untanned skins and hair can potentially become undead.

Larger undead with the BUILDINGDESTROYER tag can still destroy buildings, though undead with special attacks like webbing will not be able to use them. Undead thieves can still pick locks, but will not path to a locked door unless in pursuit of the living. If found underground, undead will usually path into a fort if they can.

Undead from [[necromancer]] [[tower]]s are reported to carry ''[[armor]] and [[weapon]]s'', giving the terror of the announcement ''"The dead walk! Hide while you can!"'' far more weight than before.

===Thralls, Husks, and Zombies===
Certain kinds of evil [[weather]] can instantly turn any [[syndrome]]-vulnerable creature into a bloodthirsty undead killer, opposed to all life. These creatures are referred to be the sort of weather that transformed them, an identifier as a thrall, husk, or zombie, and their original creature name-- for example, a ''stray guineahen unholy gloom husk''. The specific procedurally generated syndromes of thralling evil clouds are functionally identical to that of animate dead, with the same extreme gains in physical stats, lack of pain or breath, etc.

Because the interaction can happen without first killing the target, thrall-like creatures retain any armor or weapons they were carrying. Perhaps worst of all, they may still be contaminated with the material leading to the transformation, infecting those with whom they wrestle.

==Destruction==
The undead should in general be considered a serious threat, far beyond the average [[goblin]] garbage. They are far greater in strength and durability than the living, are tireless, feel no pain, have no useful articulations to damage, and are impervious to the effects of morale. All of these traits make the undead highly dangerous; one can compare the effect to fighting a smaller and somewhat more fragile [[bronze colossus]].

You would not wish to attempt to kill them with puncture wounds for this reason, and likewise, choking is ineffective against their lack of breath. Pulping an important structural body-part is guaranteed to kill an undead. Blunt weapons are effective weapons to use for animate corpses, for they are not only less likely to sever off parts for further reanimation, but are likely to inflict pulping damage, mangling the zombies so badly that they cannot rise up again. Of those available to dwarves, maces are more efficient at pulping than warhammers. Flails are better still, if one can acquire them. Beheading appears to work less reliably - this is possibly related to the neck being cut off rather than the head itself, which the game does not register as decapitation{{Verify}}. Cutting apart the physical form of undead can be dangerous if the source of reanimation is still active and present, as the more body parts are about, the more fodder for animation is present. In this case, it is wiser to either butcher the corpses (if they can be butchered), throw them into [[magma]], or [[dwarven atom smasher|pulverise them with a drawbridge]], which will destroy the bodies so thoroughly that they cannot be reanimated again. A thrall may be "safely" fought with cutting weapons however, as long as there is no risk of infection at hand. Undead animals can be disposed of by cage-trapping them and trading them away to passing <s>merchants</s> [[Elves]].

Undead from necromancer sieges should be treated with far more caution, as they can carry equipment. These are exceedingly dangerous, for their already heightened strength and toughness are further augmented by weapons-grade metal. You may want to eschew direct combat altogether in this situation, especially as necromancer sieges already tend to summon the walking dead in pages of a hundred, and one is enough to rout an entire squad.

[[Evil weather]] thralls may also require utmost caution. Any thrall carrying a melee weapon or armour can dispatch a full squad in short order even with average combat skills, making direct confrontation an unwise choice. A particularly dire possibility is that, if the responsible evil cloud is in dust form, the thrall is still contaminated with whatever substance transformed it. If this is the case, any dwarves sent to fight the thrall will become thralls themselves if the thrall tries to wrestle them. From there, the new thralls might spread the contaminant further still, which can easily lead to a [[Fun|full-fledged zombie apocalypse]].

In these and other dire cases, it is often better to not fight them directly at all, instead resorting to traps, [[dwarven atom smasher|atom smashers]] and other indirect ways to neutralise them. It is not advised to directly fight a zombie horde that outnumbers your military, even a highly trained one. A legendary squad can take down zombies in roughly equal numbers, but a continuous onslaught of undead [[Fun|will quickly show a major disadvantage of living soldiers in over-exertion]]. [[Magma]], that classic solution to all dwarven problems, is another effective weapon, as is fire in general. The sheer heat of magma will eventually destroy the corpse, rendering it unable to rise again. Magma kills zombies fairly slowly though.

[[Morale]] is a big obstacle to directly confronting a zombie horde. Without enough [[discipline]], a troop sent to fight them may instead decide to flee in terror from such abominations of nature. As you may imagine, this can lead to endless amounts of [[Fun]], for unlike your dwarves, the undead cannot feel fear or any other emotion, and any dead dwarves may in turn rise up into more zombies. It is important that any undead-fighting squad consists of severely hardened and disciplined soldiers. Any soldiers you bring to embark on an evil biome should have ''at least'' two points in [[discipline]], as morale is currently buggy and leads to ordinary dwarves fleeing even from living wildlife{{bug|7161}}. This may also be worked around with a little [[modding]], by adding at least {{token|NATURAL_SKILL:DISCIPLINE:1|c}} to all civilised races and trainable pets.

Reports have been made of zombies animated by the ambient evil of a region deanimating on their own when wandering away from such a vile place.

==Undead Fun Facts==

* Undead can animate from hauled corpses.
* Undead will not attack vampires.
* Undead will not attack inorganic enemies like the [[bronze colossus]].
* Undead risen from starved animals in cages are not caged.
* Undead attack all organic megabeasts as well as invaders, except necromancers (as their sorcery allows them to control undead easily).
* Creatures capable of evading traps or bypassing locked doors retain that ability as undead.
* Enthralled dwarves from your fortress are not affected by traps.
* Dwarves who like an animal will also enjoy that undead animal.

==Bugs==
* Certain types of undead tissue such as hair and feathers cannot be damaged, nor can they damage dwarves.{{bug|5356}}
* Dwarves will not report someone missing as dead even if the corpse is gnawing on their ear.
* Animated creatures can somehow become stuck in mid-air, and will not move at all, even if killed. Spatters of blood from the animated party also float in this manner. This has been known to occur in cases ranging from a deer's animated head to a goblin's partial skeleton.

Although [[vampire]]s are no longer performing the bodily functions of a living being, they are not considered the "animated dead", this term being reserved for a corpse which has begun to move and act on its own or by the will of another, but lacking any form of intelligence beyond a primitive urge to hunt and kill any living thing it can find. Where zombies and skeletons cannot think or behave in any sophisticated manner beyond "kill everything", vampires are willful beings, generally indistinguishable from living persons (and capable of great deception to ensure that nobody learns about their condition). [[Ghost]]s are called Undead in-game, but they are also not considered animated dead (as they lack a corporeal form).

As long as the remains of a creature contain a body part capable of grasping, be it a hand or head or the entire upper half, those remains can be animated. This can lead to animated hands and heads, which seems comical until you consider the implications of a swarm of such monstrosities and the havoc that they might wreak. Even some parts of creatures which should be incapable of autonomous movement can be raised, such as the hair or skin or even ''[[mussel]] shells''. They are, however, predictably nonlethal, mostly serving as a B-movie terror monster to scare your dwarves into running around. A body part can be resurrected as a zombie even if it has already done so and been de-animated again. However, pulping damage (that is, "exploding into gore", "cloven asunder", "torn into shreds" and so on) to the head, lower body, or upper body will turn the corpse into a "mangled corpse", ensuring that the zombie cannot rise up again. Likewise, destroying the structural integrity of an animate body-part will stop its reanimation.

==Traits==
Upon animation, an undead gains a [[syndrome]] that fundamentally changes its physical characteristics and behaviour. Some of the traits they generally possess are:
*Severely increased [[attribute|strength and toughness]] and reduced [[speed]];
*Opposition to life;
*Lack of emotion, pain, thought, or need for sustenance or breath;
*Undead status (NOT_LIVING), sterility, and inability to attribute rust or gain.

Undead retain the wounds that killed them in life, as well as any they have sustained since or from a temporary de-animation. Undead vary in levels of strength depending on their form. Certain types of animal are likely the most dangerous that it is common to encounter, and can have dangerous strength, speed, aggression, and piercing attacks. The undead of butcherable creatures can still be butchered once de-animated, as long as they have not rotted; doing so will prevent them from re-animating again, though their untanned skins and hair can potentially become undead.

Larger undead with the BUILDINGDESTROYER tag can still destroy buildings, though undead with special attacks like webbing will not be able to use them. Undead thieves can still pick locks, but will not path to a locked door unless in pursuit of the living. If found underground, undead will usually path into a fort if they can.

Undead from [[necromancer]] [[tower]]s are reported to carry ''[[armor]] and [[weapon]]s'', giving the terror of the announcement ''"The dead walk! Hide while you can!"'' far more weight than before.

===Thralls, Husks, and Zombies===
Certain kinds of evil [[weather]] can instantly turn any [[syndrome]]-vulnerable creature into a bloodthirsty undead killer, opposed to all life. These creatures are referred to be the sort of weather that transformed them, an identifier as a thrall, husk, or zombie, and their original creature name-- for example, a ''stray guineahen unholy gloom husk''. The specific procedurally generated syndromes of thralling evil clouds are functionally identical to that of animate dead, with the same extreme gains in physical stats, lack of pain or breath, etc.

Because the interaction can happen without first killing the target, thrall-like creatures retain any armor or weapons they were carrying. Perhaps worst of all, they may still be contaminated with the material leading to the transformation, infecting those with whom they wrestle.

==Destruction==
The undead should in general be considered a serious threat, far beyond the average [[goblin]] garbage. They are far greater in strength and durability than the living, are tireless, feel no pain, have no useful articulations to damage, and are impervious to the effects of morale. All of these traits make the undead highly dangerous; one can compare the effect to fighting a smaller and somewhat more fragile [[bronze colossus]].

You would not wish to attempt to kill them with puncture wounds for this reason, and likewise, choking is ineffective against their lack of breath. Pulping an important structural body-part is guaranteed to kill an undead. Blunt weapons are effective weapons to use for animate corpses, for they are not only less likely to sever off parts for further reanimation, but are likely to inflict pulping damage, mangling the zombies so badly that they cannot rise up again. Of those available to dwarves, maces are more efficient at pulping than warhammers. Flails are better still, if one can acquire them. Beheading appears to work less reliably - this is possibly related to the neck being cut off rather than the head itself, which the game does not register as decapitation{{Verify}}. Cutting apart the physical form of undead can be dangerous if the source of reanimation is still active and present, as the more body parts are about, the more fodder for animation is present. In this case, it is wiser to either butcher the corpses (if they can be butchered), throw them into [[magma]], or [[dwarven atom smasher|pulverise them with a drawbridge]], which will destroy the bodies so thoroughly that they cannot be reanimated again. A thrall may be "safely" fought with cutting weapons however, as long as there is no risk of infection at hand. Undead animals can be disposed of by cage-trapping them and trading them away to passing <s>merchants</s> [[Elves]].

Undead from necromancer sieges should be treated with far more caution, as they can carry equipment. These are exceedingly dangerous, for their already heightened strength and toughness are further augmented by weapons-grade metal. You may want to eschew direct combat altogether in this situation, especially as necromancer sieges already tend to summon the walking dead in pages of a hundred, and one is enough to rout an entire squad.

[[Evil weather]] thralls may also require utmost caution. Any thrall carrying a melee weapon or armour can dispatch a full squad in short order even with average combat skills, making direct confrontation an unwise choice. A particularly dire possibility is that, if the responsible evil cloud is in dust form, the thrall is still contaminated with whatever substance transformed it. If this is the case, any dwarves sent to fight the thrall will become thralls themselves if the thrall tries to wrestle them. From there, the new thralls might spread the contaminant further still, which can easily lead to a [[Fun|full-fledged zombie apocalypse]].

In these and other dire cases, it is often better to not fight them directly at all, instead resorting to traps, [[dwarven atom smasher|atom smashers]] and other indirect ways to neutralise them. [[Magma]], that classic solution to all dwarven problems, is another effective weapon, as is fire in general. The sheer heat of magma will eventually destroy the corpse, rendering it unable to rise again. Magma kills zombies fairly slowly though.

[[Morale]] is a big obstacle to directly confronting a zombie horde. Without enough [[discipline]], a troop sent to fight them may instead decide to flee in terror from such abominations of nature. As you may imagine, this can lead to endless amounts of [[Fun]], for unlike your dwarves, the undead cannot feel fear or any other emotion, and any dead dwarves may in turn rise up into more zombies. It is important that any undead-fighting squad consists of severely hardened and disciplined soldiers. Any soldiers you bring to embark on an evil biome should have ''at least'' two points in [[discipline]], as morale is currently buggy and leads to ordinary dwarves fleeing even from living wildlife{{bug|7161}}. This may also be worked around with a little [[modding]], by adding at least {{token|NATURAL_SKILL:DISCIPLINE:1|c}} to all civilised races and trainable pets.

Reports have been made of zombies animated by the ambient evil of a region deanimating on their own when wandering away from such a vile place.

==Undead Fun Facts==

* Undead can animate from hauled corpses.
* Undead will not attack vampires.
* Undead will not attack inorganic enemies like the [[bronze colossus]].
* Undead risen from starved animals in cages are not caged.
* Undead attack all organic megabeasts as well as invaders, except necromancers (as their sorcery allows them to control undead easily).
* Creatures capable of evading traps or bypassing locked doors retain that ability as undead.
* Enthralled dwarves from your fortress are not affected by traps.
* Dwarves who like an animal will also enjoy that undead animal.

==Bugs==
Dwarves will not report someone missing as dead even if the corpse is gnawing on their ear.

Animated creatures can somehow become stuck in mid-air, and will not move at all, even if killed. Spatters of blood from the animated party also float in this manner. This has been known to occur in cases ranging from a deer's animated head to a goblin's partial skeleton.

Samanato: Beheading appears to kill undead sometimes and sometimes not - possibly related to the neck being cut off rather than the head?

{{av}}
The '''animated dead''' (or '''undead''') {{Tile|Ñ|3:0}} are the bodies of formerly living creatures animated through fell magic. These [[night creature|night creatures]] can be created intentionally by a [[necromancer]] to serve him, or arise naturally from the dark energies of [[surroundings|evil regions]].

==What is an undead?==
An undead may be formed of either the rotting husk or the bones and shell of a being. The former is considered a zombie, and the latter a skeleton. Although [[vampire]]s are no longer performing the bodily functions of a living being, they are not considered the "animated dead", this term being reserved for a corpse which has begun to move and act on its own or by the will of another, but lacking any form of intelligence beyond a primitive urge to hunt and kill any living thing it can find.

They are, however, predictably nonlethal, mostly serving as a B-movie terror monster to scare your dwarves into running around. A body part can be resurrected as a zombie even if it has already done so and been de-animated again. However, collapsing, pulping or goring the head, lower body, or upper body, ensures that the zombie cannot rise up again, as does damage from extreme heat. Likewise, destroying the structural integrity of an animate body-part will stop its reanimation.

A '''corpse''' is what is left of a creature once dead. The corpses of vermin are called '''remains'''.

A corpse has several levels of decay, it will begin as "(creature or name) corpse", progress to "rotten (creature or name) corpse", "(creature or name) partially decayed corpse", and then to "(creature or name) skeleton", and will remain a skeleton indefinitely. If the creature had had parts ripped or cut off before death, the corpse will be described as "mutilated corpse" and "partial skeleton" in respective descriptions, and the parts (if still on the map) will decay into a type of bone depending on the part. A creature with parts that were pulped (i.e. exploded into gore, cloven asunder, torn into shreds, etc.) before death will be described as a "mangled corpse".

Letting corpses naturally rot is the only way to get usable bones from creatures that dwarves refuse to butcher (such as [[goblin|goblins]], [[elves]], and other [[DF2012:Learns|sentient]] creatures), according to their ethics (unless you modded the ethics). Cutting a live goblin up using serrated blade traps or throwing them down extreme heights (such they explode) will generate usable goblin bones and skulls. Already-dead corpses can be reanimated with the help of a [[necromancer]], or naturally if you are in any type of evil embark, and then dissected. Remains of vermin, however, simply progress from "(vermin) remains" to "rotten (vermin) remains" before simply vanishing.

[[Butcher]]ing a corpse produces quantities of [[meat]], [[prepared organs]], [[bone|bones]], a [[skull]], [[skin]], and nails/hoofs, as well as cartilage, nervous tissue, and other byproducts. Body parts can be butchered, presumably for whatever tissues/organs were in the part. "Butchering" a skeleton produces only a skull, bones, cartilage and other non-decaying tissues. The corpses of very small animals, such as of [[raven]]s, currently cannot be butchered. Also, corpses of tamed (not stray) animals can't be butchered.

Rotting corpses will produce [[miasma]] in subterranean areas, but not above ground.

If a corpse of a dwarf is left unburied, it will cause unhappy [[thought]]s in surviving family and friends. The soul of a dwarf that has not been properly put to rest may [[ghost|return for vengeance]], which can lead to even more [[Tantrum spiral|Fun]].

Corpses can be [[Undead|raised from the dead]]. This will occur in some [[Surroundings#Evil|evil]] biomes if the creature is killed inside an evil biome. On an embark location between an evil and a non-evil biome, corpses killed on the non-evil side will not rise. Corpses may also be raised by a [[necromancer]] into a slave, or resurrect themselves as [[mummy|mummies]] and themselves gain the power to raise corpses, though mummies will only be encountered in [[tomb]]s in adventure mode. Mangled corpses with pulped heads or upper bodies will never become undead. Severed body parts will be able to rise if they have either a grasp tag (hands and possibly other body parts) or if they still have a head attached, so it may be advisable to kill risen corpses with blunt weaponry to avoid swarms of body parts and to permanently pulp them to death. Corpses and severed body parts will not rise again if they have been [[butcher]]ed, their skin [[tanner|tanned]] and their hair [[spinner|spun into thread]], or if they have been exposed to [[magma]]. The zombies themselves will also be destroyed by magma.

Siege

:''For catapults and ballistae, see [[Siege engine]].''

'''Sieges''' are large scale assaults on your fortress by other [[civilization]]s. Sieges are drawn from moving units advancing towards the fortress, whether from an army, a bandit group, or a necromancer's [[tower]]. They are announced with a full-screen message that differs depending on the attacking race, and the main screen showing the "*SIEGE*" tag along the top for the duration.

Caravans will not arrive at a besieged fortress. They will arrive, though, if a siege is broken quickly enough, but it is possible to miss out entirely on a civilization's caravan for the year this way. Even if they do arrive before the siege, the attackers may kill them or chase them off if they can reach them. Consider this when deciding how you set up your [[trade depot]] and how heavily reliant your economy is on imported goods.

A civilization will be unable to lay siege if it can't reach your fortress site. Armies need to physically move to the location of your fortress; they are normally allowed a 30-tile radius of interaction (towers have 10 tiles), beyond which sieges are impossible. You will never get sieges if you embark on an island or in a valley which is completely surrounded by mountains. If you want to make sure that a certain civilization will be capable of laying siege to you, then look at the "neighbors" view of the [[Embark]] site finder when selecting your fortress site.

== Structure of a siege ==

*Siege forces usually consist of several 'squads'. Using the [[goblin]]s as an example, each squad consists of several goblins of one military class (swordsman, lasher, etc.), and often one 'squad leader' (typically an Elite or better, which need not be the same class as the squad it leads).
*Occasionally, a squad will be mounted - this means each of its members will be riding a suitable [[creature]], though the creatures typically vary between members. The squad leader can be mounted, even if his squad is not. These mounts can change the combat dynamics, since some can fly, are [[building destroyer]]s, or have substantially different combat traits than their rider. For more info on mounted units, and the [[Fun]] they can unleash upon an ill-prepared defender, see: [[Mount]]
*Invaders can climb [[wall]]s and pits. This can be quite [[Fun]], if your fort defence relies on the same kind of walls and pits as previous versions.
*After being sufficiently "successful" at defending against the siege (killing sufficient attackers, waiting them out, or some combination thereof), the attackers will retreat. All of the remaining squads and groups will head for the map edges and leave, typically favoring the edge they entered from. Once all of the remaining attackers have decided to retreat, the "SIEGE" tag will go away.
*It is possible to have multiple sieges at the same time. If the attacking civilizations are at war with each other, they will start to fight with each other as well.
*Different races will favor different styles of attack during sieges. The following attack styles were observed in .40d; it remains to be seen if these traits are still present in current releases.
*You can turn off sieges and [[Forgotten beast]]s altogether by editing the [[d_init.txt]] file to change [INVADERS:YES] to [INVADERS:NO].

== [[Goblin]] sieges ==

Goblin sieges are announced with the message, "''A vile force of darkness has arrived!''"

Goblins will start laying siege to your fortress when you reach a certain [[population]], usually around 80. Usually the tactics used by the goblins are no more sophisticated than charging in an open march toward your fortress and attempting to kill your [[dwarves]]. Goblins sieges often include groups of [[troll]]s, [[ogre]]s, or [[cave dragon]]s that can [[Building destroyer|break buildings]] and smash workshops. Unlike the squads, however, these 'groups' usually enter the map in a single tile, somewhat akin to arriving [[migrants]]. These war creatures usually possess random civilian classes, and show little of the organized behavior of the squads. Goblins may also bring elite human or even dwarven fighters as leaders of their squads, previously kidnapped by [[snatcher]]s. Goblin sieges usually involve [[mount]]ed squads, some of which can fly over whatever defenses you might have set up to stop them.

== [[Elf|Elven]] sieges ==

Elven sieges are announced with the message, "''The elves have brought the full forces of their lands against you.''"

It is possible to have elven attacks as well, but that usually requires some effort on part of the player, or for your starting civilization to have a pre-existing conflict with a nearby elven one. You can check this when you embark while looking at nearby civilizations, where it will read WAR next to the elf civilization, though it seems to be entirely dependent on how world gen plays out and embarking at a time when a war is happening. Another, possibly simpler (and more amusing) way to elven siege is to blatantly provoke them. If you don't want to be attacked by elves you should not offer them wooden goods or goods stored in wooden barrels or bins. You might also avoid clearing too much woodland, as elves will be offended if you do so.

Elves use stealth squads, a la goblin ambushes, to hide their numbers and locations. It should be noted, however, that unlike goblin ambushes which cap at four squads, elves can come in '''massive''' numbers, atop mighty (and tasty) [[unicorn]]s or other [[elephant|exotic beasts]]. Fortunately, unlike goblins and humans, who wear heavy armor and wield metal weapons that can cause considerable damage, the elves are very weak in battle. Their weapons and arrows are made are made of wood, which will simply bounce off any standard metal armour, and they march into battle wearing easily breakable wooden armor or even nothing but cloth robes and trousers.

== [[Human]] sieges ==

Human sieges are announced with the message "''The enemy have come and are laying siege to the fortress.''".

Humans may also siege you should you let their [[diplomat]] die while visiting your fortress, if too many of their trade wagons get destroyed or if you trade with an elven nation the humans are at war with. Humans would sometimes set up a camp near the map edge they arrived on, harassing wandering dwarves and waiting for you to come to them instead of blindly charging toward your fortress. Humans often ride rather mundane animals, such as horses, camels (of both varieties), or war grizzly bears, and may bring along further war animals like trained cheetahs. Be aware that human siegers know of all traps that their diplomats have seen before, even their war animals are immune to those traps. If you had a human diplomat in your fort, best assume that your traps are useless against the invaders unless they were built after his last visit. A removed and rebuilt trap counts as "new", even if it's the same type of trap in the same tile.

== [[Necromancer]] sieges ==

Necromancer sieges are announced with ''"The [[undead|dead]] walk. Hide while you still can!"''

Necromancers will only be able to siege you if you embark in an area near a tower. If no tower is present in the neighbors list, no necromancers will ever besiege your fortress.

Necromancers will besiege your fortress by sending [[undead]] to your fort or even coming themselves. Either way, undead sieges are a guaranteed source of [[Fun]]. The undead units will arrive from all sides of the map, slowly meandering towards your fortress. Undead sieges may arrive with as few as one zombie to as many as fifty or more. The undead in general are serious enemies that one cannot treat like goblin garbage. A legendary squad can take down unarmed zombies in equal numbers, but the large numbers that necromancers can bring are unmatchable. To make things worse, "elite" zombie fighters may carry ''weapons and armour'', a truly terrifying thought were there ever one.

It is recommended that you have <s>many traps</s> every single trap with the best materials possible you could possibly build set in advance, and when the undead legions arrive, '''shut down everything'''. Be sure to shut down all of your butcher's shops, crypts, and refuse stockpiles, as necromancers can reanimate armies of body parts to destroy your fortress from the inside. Be also careful with fishery workshops, as reports of mussel shells rising from the dead are fairly common. Necromancers will raise any corpse or corpse part that they see, and simple proximity to undead can cause things like skin and hair to rise and attack the unfortunate butcher. It doesn't really matter how many zombies arrive; if you are not prepared, you will probably get slaughtered, as one zombie can easily become two zombies, then four, then eight and so on. If the zombies cannot attack your dwarves immediately, they will simply mill about on the surface until something living (wild animals included) comes too close or until they are all destroyed. Like other sieges, it is also possible to wait out necromancer sieges, though this can take a year or more.

Necromancers can besiege your fortress at any time, including before the second spring's elven caravan arrives, or even before the first dwarven caravan arrives in the fall of your first year (thus preventing its arrival). The number of undead sent will depend on your wealth and population, and early sieges tend to have as few as 3 undead; but can cause very much cheesy fun if a lone necromancer accompanies them (which isn't uncommon).

== [[Bandit]] sieges ==

Roving bandit groups nearby your fortress may also besiege your fortress. This can happen as early as ''the first year'', making them an excellent source of surprise [[Fun]].

Bandit groups are drawn from any entity with the {{token|BANDITRY|e}} and {{token|LOCAL_BANDITRY|e}} tokens. In unmodded games, these are [[goblin]]s, [[human]]s and [[kobold]]s, though other races (even [[dwarves]]) have been reported. Their announcement messages are the same as the messages for regular sieges of their race. Bandit sieges are generally smaller than a later-game full-blown siege, more similar to goblin [[ambush]]es in size, as there are fewer units from which to draw combatants. Bandits tend to be poorly equipped and skilled, some being recruits with no weapons or armour.

== [[Dwarf]] sieges ==
{{mod}}
Dwarf sieges will only arrive when you [[mod]] the game, because the game has been programmed to never cause sieges from the player's civilization. Unless you are playing with another civilization(for example, humans), Dwarf sieges will cause a massive [[loyalty cascade]] even if you don't attack the invaders.

Dwarf sieges are announced with the same message as human sieges("''The enemy have come and are laying siege to the fortress.''"). The also behave very similar to human sieges, possibly indicating that dwarves and humans have the same AI when invading a site. They even bring mounts, whereas dwarven cavalry is not implemented for the player.

* Amphibian invader mounts drown their riders. {{Bug|926}}

Not all combat in Dwarf Fortress is lethal, to-the-death fighting. Several different '''levels of confict''' exist and are used in different circumstances.

In [[adventurer mode]], you can view the level of combat with any particular enemy with the {{k|l}}ook command.

== Levels ==
The levels revealed in the [[object testing arena]] are as follows:
* No quarter
* Lethal
* Non-lethal
* Brawl
* Training
* Horseplay
* Encounter

One other is commonly found in adventurer mode, despite that strictly speaking, it is not a level of conflict:
* Ally

An attacker who gives [[wikipedia:no quarter|no quarter]] will refuse to accept [[surrender]] or otherwise spare the life of an opponent, meaning the conflict will not end until either the opponent is dead or the attacker retreats. No-quarter mode is caused by either required kill [[ethic]]s (where surrendering would allow cheating the justice system), fighting with a non-sapient animal (which does not understand the concept of surrender), or the opponent faking surrender (so the attacker will not fall for such tricks again).

=== Lethal ===
Lethal combat is a fight to the death. Drawing weapons will escalate combat into lethality. Although death is likely in this mode of conflict, surrender may be accepted to end the fight.

Combat also escalates to lethal if you attempt to wrestle the opponent's throat (that is, any body part with the THROAT token). There is no way to place a chokehold on someone in Dwarf Fortress without it being considered a lethal fight, even if you intend to release them as soon as they lose consciousness. Although real-world police officers employ chokeholds with non-lethal intent, this is still probably correct behaviour: a real-life police officer will respond with deadly force if you attempt to choke them in return. (Please do not try this at home.)

=== Non-lethal ===
Non-lethal combat is a fight without weapons drawn, using punches, kicks, and wrestling. Non-lethal fights may end without killing a creature.

=== Brawl ===
A brawl occurs when one person attacks another with fists only, with no wrestling taking place. A common situation in which a brawl can be initiated is by punching someone who has spat at you.

=== Training ===
Training is the mode used in sparring. In sparring, participants will use training weapons if they are available, and will "pull" their blows to inflict as little injury as possibly by "lightly tapping the target". Injuries may still occur if a wrestling move is used; however, even attacks from a masterwork silver hammer will be as easily held back as from a training sword.

=== Horseplay ===
In horseplay, participants will strike one another but will pull all of their blows, "lightly tapping the target". It has no clear difference from training and no presently known circumstance in which it can be initiated in either adventurer mode or dwarf fortress mode.

== Woodless trees ==

It appears, trees with [TREE:NONE:NONE] will not appear in the overworld at all. Having tested several tropical embarks I've not found a single abaca or banana tree, and more tellingly, replacing an existing TREE token with defined wood with [TREE:NONE:NONE] will replace the tree entirely with another species from the same biome. --[[User:Samanato|Samanato]] 02:18, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

:''For catapults and ballistae, see [[Siege engine]].''

'''Sieges''' are large scale assaults on your fortress by other [[civilization]]s. Sieges are drawn from moving units advancing towards the fortress, whether from an army, a bandit group, or a necromancer's [[tower]]. They are announced with a full-screen message that differs depending on the attacking race, and the main screen showing the "*SIEGE*" tag along the top for the duration.

Caravans will not arrive at a besieged fortress. They will arrive, though, if a siege is broken quickly enough, but it is possible to miss out entirely on a civilization's caravan for the year this way. Even if they do arrive before the siege, the attackers may kill them or chase them off if they can reach them. Consider this when deciding how you set up your [[trade depot]] and how heavily reliant your economy is on imported goods.

A civilization will be unable to lay siege if it can't reach your fortress site. Armies need to physically move to the location of your fortress; they are normally allowed a 30-tile radius of interaction (towers have 10 tiles), beyond which sieges are impossible. You will never get sieges if you embark on an island or in a valley which is completely surrounded by mountains. If you want to make sure that a certain civilization will be capable of laying siege to you, then look at the "neighbors" view of the [[Embark]] site finder when selecting your fortress site.

== Structure of a siege ==

*Siege forces usually consist of several 'squads'. Using the [[goblin]]s as an example, each squad consists of several goblins of one military class (swordsman, lasher, etc.), and often one 'squad leader' (typically an Elite or better, which need not be the same class as the squad it leads).
*Occasionally, a squad will be mounted - this means each of its members will be riding a suitable [[creature]], though the creatures typically vary between members. The squad leader can be mounted, even if his squad is not. These mounts can change the combat dynamics, since some can fly, are [[building destroyer]]s, or have substantially different combat traits than their rider. For more info on mounted units, and the [[Fun]] they can unleash upon an ill-prepared defender, see: [[Mount]]
*Invaders can climb [[wall]]s and pits. This can be quite [[Fun]], if your fort defence relies on the same kind of walls and pits as previous versions.
*After being sufficiently "successful" at defending against the siege (killing sufficient attackers, waiting them out, or some combination thereof), the attackers will retreat. All of the remaining squads and groups will head for the map edges and leave, typically favoring the edge they entered from. Once all of the remaining attackers have decided to retreat, the "SIEGE" tag will go away.
*It is possible to have multiple sieges at the same time. If the attacking civilizations are at war with each other, they will start to fight with each other as well.
*Different races will favor different styles of attack during sieges. The following attack styles were observed in .40d; it remains to be seen if these traits are still present in current releases.
*You can turn off sieges and [[Forgotten beast]]s altogether by editing the [[d_init.txt]] file to change [INVADERS:YES] to [INVADERS:NO].

== [[Goblin]] sieges ==

Goblin sieges are announced with the message, "''A vile force of darkness has arrived!''"

Goblins will start laying siege to your fortress when you reach a certain [[population]], usually around 80. Usually the tactics used by the goblins are no more sophisticated than charging in an open march toward your fortress and attempting to kill your [[dwarves]]. Goblins sieges often include groups of [[troll]]s, [[ogre]]s, or [[cave dragon]]s that can [[Building destroyer|break buildings]] and smash workshops. Unlike the squads, however, these 'groups' usually enter the map in a single tile, somewhat akin to arriving [[migrants]]. These war creatures usually possess random civilian classes, and show little of the organized behavior of the squads. Goblins may also bring elite human or even dwarven fighters as leaders of their squads, previously kidnapped by [[snatcher]]s. Goblin sieges usually involve [[mount]]ed squads, some of which can fly over whatever defenses you might have set up to stop them.

== [[Elf|Elven]] sieges ==

Elven sieges are announced with the message, "''The elves have brought the full forces of their lands against you.''"

It is possible to have elven attacks as well, but that usually requires some effort on part of the player, or for your starting civilization to have a pre-existing conflict with a nearby elven one. You can check this when you embark while looking at nearby civilizations, where it will read WAR next to the elf civilization, though it seems to be entirely dependent on how world gen plays out and embarking at a time when a war is happening. Another, possibly simpler (and more amusing) way to elven siege is to blatantly provoke them. If you don't want to be attacked by elves you should not offer them wooden goods or goods stored in wooden barrels or bins. You might also avoid clearing too much woodland, as elves will be offended if you do so.

Elves use stealth squads, a la goblin ambushes, to hide their numbers and locations. It should be noted, however, that unlike goblin ambushes which cap at four squads, elves can come in '''massive''' numbers, atop mighty (and tasty) [[unicorn]]s or other [[elephant|exotic beasts]]. Fortunately, unlike goblins and humans, who wear heavy armor and wield metal weapons that can cause considerable damage, the elves are very weak in battle. Their weapons and arrows are made are made of wood, which will simply bounce off any standard metal armour, and they march into battle wearing easily breakable wooden armor or even nothing but cloth robes and trousers.

== [[Human]] sieges ==

Human sieges are announced with the message "''The enemy have come and are laying siege to the fortress.''".

Humans may also siege you should you let their [[diplomat]] die while visiting your fortress, if too many of their trade wagons get destroyed or if you trade with an elven nation the humans are at war with. Humans would sometimes set up a camp near the map edge they arrived on, harassing wandering dwarves and waiting for you to come to them instead of blindly charging toward your fortress. Humans often ride rather mundane animals, such as horses, camels (of both varieties), or war grizzly bears, and may bring along further war animals like trained cheetahs. Be aware that human siegers know of all traps that their diplomats have seen before, even their war animals are immune to those traps. If you had a human diplomat in your fort, best assume that your traps are useless against the invaders unless they were built after his last visit. A removed and rebuilt trap counts as "new", even if it's the same type of trap in the same tile.

== [[Necromancer]] sieges ==

Necromancer sieges are announced with ''"The [[undead|dead]] walk. Hide while you still can!"''

Necromancers will only be able to siege you if you embark in an area near a tower. If no tower is present in the neighbors list, no necromancers will ever besiege your fortress.

Necromancers will besiege your fortress by sending [[undead]] to your fort or even coming themselves. Either way, undead sieges are a guaranteed source of [[Fun]]. The undead units will arrive from all sides of the map, slowly meandering towards your fortress. Undead sieges may arrive with as few as one zombie to as many as fifty or more. The undead in general are serious enemies that one cannot treat like goblin garbage. A legendary squad can take down unarmed zombies in equal numbers, but the large numbers that necromancers can bring are unmatchable. To make things worse, "elite" zombie fighters may carry ''weapons and armour'', a truly terrifying thought were there ever one.

It is recommended that you have <s>many traps</s> every single trap with the best materials possible you could possibly build set in advance, and when the undead legions arrive, '''shut down everything'''. Be sure to shut down all of your butcher's shops, crypts, and refuse stockpiles, as necromancers can reanimate armies of body parts to destroy your fortress from the inside. Be also careful with fishery workshops, as reports of mussel shells rising from the dead are fairly common. Necromancers will raise any corpse or corpse part that they see, and simple proximity to undead can cause things like skin and hair to rise and attack the unfortunate butcher. It doesn't really matter how many zombies arrive; if you are not prepared, you will probably get slaughtered, as one zombie can easily become two zombies, then four, then eight and so on. If the zombies cannot attack your dwarves immediately, they will simply mill about on the surface until something living (wild animals included) comes too close or until they are all destroyed. Like other sieges, it is also possible to wait out necromancer sieges, though this can take a year or more.

Necromancers can besiege your fortress at any time, including before the second spring's elven caravan arrives, or even before the first dwarven caravan arrives in the fall of your first year (thus preventing its arrival). The number of undead sent will depend on your wealth and population, and early sieges tend to have as few as 3 undead; but can cause very much cheesy fun if a lone necromancer accompanies them (which isn't uncommon).

== [[Bandit]] sieges ==

Roving bandit groups nearby your fortress may also besiege your fortress. This can happen as early as ''the first year'', making them an excellent source of surprise [[Fun]].

Bandit groups are drawn from any entity with the {{token|BANDITRY|e}} and {{token|LOCAL_BANDITRY|e}} tokens. In unmodded games, these are [[goblin]]s, [[human]]s and [[kobold]]s, though other races (even [[dwarves]]) have been reported. Their announcement messages are the same as the messages for regular sieges of their race. Bandit sieges are generally smaller than a later-game full-blown siege, more similar to goblin [[ambush]]es in size, as there are fewer units from which to draw combatants.

== [[Dwarf]] sieges ==
{{mod}}
Dwarf sieges will only arrive when you [[mod]] the game, because the game has been programmed to never cause sieges from the player's civilization. Unless you are playing with another civilization(for example, humans), Dwarf sieges will cause a massive [[loyalty cascade]] even if you don't attack the invaders.

Dwarf sieges are announced with the same message as human sieges("''The enemy have come and are laying siege to the fortress.''"). The also behave very similar to human sieges, possibly indicating that dwarves and humans have the same AI when invading a site.

Metal

2014-08-05T01:26:19Z

Samanato: Divine metal's solid density should be 1 g/cm³. (1000 g/cm³ is five times heavier than slade!!!)

{{Migrated_article}}
{{quality|unrated}}
{{av}}
'''Metal''' is a [[material]] extracted from [[ore]] at a [[smelter]], turning the ore into '''bars''' of pure metal. (One [[adamantine|special metal]] becomes wafers instead of bars.) It is sometimes combined with other materials to form an '''alloy''' metal, which is also measured by the bar. An alloy usually improves on the properties of its components to give more uses or increased [[Item value|value]]. The metal bars resulting from [[smelting]] are used to make items such as [[weapon]]s, [[armor]], [[furniture]], and [[crafts]] at a [[Metalsmith's forge|forge]].

Smelting pure ores into the corresponding bars raises the base value from that of stone (3) to that of bars (5). This value is then multiplied against the [[value#Material multipliers|material multiplier]] of the metal to give the final value for the bar.

==Alloys==
There are eleven pure metals in Dwarf Fortress (plus a twelfth [[Adamantine|special metal]]). Many of these can be mixed together to create '''alloys''' of one type or another, of which there are another fourteen. In some cases making alloys will result in an overall increase in value, or the resultant alloy will be more powerful when used to forge weapons or armor, though many alloys result in no overall increase in utility or [[Wealth|created wealth]]. (These increases in value can be compared in the "Difference" column of the below table.)

There are many uses for alloys:
* Increased performance for armor or weapons.
* Increased value (particularly when a silver-bearing ore is substituted for silver)
* Stretching your supply of scarce metals.
* Creating items with distinct colors (for instance, [[rose gold]] is [[Color scheme|magenta]]) for furniture, color-coding rooms or levers, or artistic constructions (including [[floor]] mosaics).
* Increasing [[thought|happiness]] or perceived [[room]] value for a dwarf who particularly likes a given alloy.
* Decreased [[fuel]] consumption if making the alloy directly from ores (e.g. [[bronze]] requires only one smelter task to make 8 bars from 2 ores).

The number of bars used to create an alloy always equals the number of bars produced: the number of bars input equals the number of bars of output. However, the number of bars produced from smelting ores is four times greater (X ores in = 4X bars out).

:*'''Reaction''' indicates the basic recipe for an alloy - this does not include any [[fuel]] necessary to operate the smelter. See the article for that alloy or [[smelting]] for possible alternatives.
::'''!''' - ''You can use only [[bar]]s of metal in this reaction, not ores.
:*'''Density''' is used to determine the different weight of finished objects.
:*'''Melting point''' is used to determine if a material is [[magma-safe]] or not: magma is 12000°U.
:*'''[[Material value]]''' is what the base value of an object made of this metal is multiplied by to determine its worth.
:*'''Value difference''' indicates the difference between the average [[value]] of the required bars of metals vs. the value of the resulting bars of alloy - what went in vs. what comes out, measured per bar. "+0" indicates that the resulting alloy is a perfectly average value of the component metals. Note that substituting tetrahedrite for copper ore always results in a value decrease, while substituting tetrahedrite or galena for silver ore always results in a value increase.

*''Combat information'' is used internally by the game to determine the [[material science|combat properties]] of weapons and armor made from this metal:
:'''Density''': Used in conjunction with other factors - heavier weapons (higher numbers) hit with more force, light weapons tend to have less penetration. Value shown here is g/cm<sup>3</sup>, which is the raw value divided by 10<sup>3</sup>
:'''Impact yield''': Used for blunt-force combat; ''higher'' is better. This is the raw value divided by 10<sup>3</sup> (i.e., kPa).
:'''Impact fracture''': Used for blunt-force combat; ''higher'' is better. This is the raw value divided by 10<sup>3</sup> (i.e., kPa).
:'''Impact elasticity''': Used for blunt-force combat; ''lower'' is better. This is the raw value.
:'''Shear yield''': Used for cutting calculations in combat; ''higher'' is better. This is the raw value divided by 10<sup>3</sup> (i.e., kPa).
:'''Shear fracture''': Used for cutting calculations in combat; ''higher'' is better. This is the raw value divided by 10<sup>3</sup> (i.e., kPa).
:'''Shear elasticity''': Used for cutting calculations in combat; ''lower'' is better. This is the raw value.

*General Term Explanations (From Wikipedia)
:'''Yield Strength''' - The stress at which material strain changes from elastic deformation to plastic deformation, causing it to deform permanently.
:'''Fracture Strength''' - The stress coordinate on the stress-strain curve at the point of rupture.

:'''Stress''' - Force per area = F/A
:'''Strain''' - Deformation of a solid due to stress = Stress/Young's Modulus

So...
:Explanations!
::'''Yield Strength''' is the amount of stress required to permanently deform (bend) a material (plastic deformation)
::'''Fracture Strength''' is the amount of stress required to permanently break (rupture) a material
::'''Elasticity''' (or ''IMPACT_STRAIN_AT_YIELD'' in RAWs) is the amount of deformation (bending) that occurs at the yield point
:Implications to Dwarf Fortress Combat
::Yield combined with Elasticity can tell what a material will do under stress (be it from a hammer, axe, or arrow)
::Higher yield means that it takes more stress to deform
::Lower elasticity means that it will deform less when stress is applied

'''Preliminary Combat Testing & Analysis'''

Adamantine and Steel take first and second place respectively, with Iron the third best material in the game. Beyond which, bronze is in a close tie with copper as to being the second worst material. As in older versions, silver continues to hold steady as the worst material available (no longer beneficial with wooden training weapons being available now) in regards to edged weaponry.
Additionally, with regards to blunt weapons all of the standard materials perform respectably well, with a very slight edge towards steel and silver. Here is the thread with the details:

| All six standard weapon metals perform nearly identically. Steel has a slightly higher rate of critical wounds, while silver is slightly more likely to penetrate armor. Platinum (only available as [[artifact]] weapons) has twice the density of silver and several other improved properties, making it the best metal for impact weapons, though very limited in production.
|}

Cross referencing this table with the table at the top of this section seems to indicate that low densities, high impact fractures, and high shear fractures contribute to the killing power of edged weapons

Level of conflict

2014-08-03T01:09:30Z

Samanato: /* Levels */

{{Quality|Tattered|16:06, 31 July 2014 (UTC)}}
{{av}}

Not all combat is Dwarf Fortress is lethal, to-the-death fighting. Several different '''levels of confict''' exist and are used in different circumstances.

In [[adventurer mode]], you can view the level of combat with any particular enemy with the {{k|l}}ook command.

== Levels ==
The levels revealed in the [[object testing arena]] are as follows:
* No quarter
* Lethal
* Non-lethal
* Brawl
* Training
* Horseplay
* Encounter

One other is commonly found in adventurer mode, despite that strictly speaking, it is not a level of conflict:
* Ally

=== No Quarter ===
An attacker who gives [[wikipedia:no quarter|no quarter]] will refuse to accept [[surrender]] or otherwise spare the life of an opponent, meaning the conflict will not end until either the opponent is dead or the attacker retreats. No-quarter mode is caused by either required kill [[ethic]]s (where surrendering would allow cheating the justice system), fighting with a non-sapient animal (which does not understand the concept of surrender), or the opponent faking surrender (so the attacker will not fall for such tricks again).

=== Lethal ===
Lethal combat is a fight to the death. Drawing weapons will escalate combat into lethality. Although death is likely in this mode of conflict, surrender may be accepted to end the fight.

=== Non-lethal ===
Non-lethal combat is a fight without weapons drawn. Non-lethal fights may end without killing a creature.

=== Training ===
Training is the mode used in sparring. Sparring is currently buggy as weapons are never drawn, as in non-lethal combats and brawls{{bug|7519}}, resulting in weapon-related skills never rising during sparring sessions.

Object testing arena

2014-08-03T00:56:53Z

Samanato: /* Butchering */

{{av}}
{{Quality|Exceptional|08:10, 8 June 2010 (UTC)}}
The '''object testing arena''' is a fun place; you can test things, or just have some fun carnage. The arena is accessed through the main menu. Note that the object testing arena is not the same as an arena created in [[fortress mode]].

== Spawning creatures ==
Creatures can be spawned while in the loo{{key|k}} menu. Press {{key|c}} to create a creature. Select the creature type, skills and equipment, and then press {{key|enter}}. Press {{key|Esc}} (or whatever you bound "leave screen" to) to cancel without creating the creature. You cannot delete creatures. You can, however, press {{key|w}} then {{key|l}} to create a stone wall, instantly killing anything on that tile.

=== Inventory and skills ===
While in the creature placement menu, it is possible to add skills to your creatures such as the fighter skill. It is also possible to add weapons, ammo, and armour to your creatures. Creatures unable to use the weapons given to them will drop them upon unpausing, but creatures such as dwarves will happily use the weapon as long as they at least have dabbling in the weapon skill. You can also set exactly how much of a certain item you want when you select it, by using the {{key|+}} or {{key|-}} keys, which is the only way to get a creature to hold more than one piece of ammo, as the arena lacks an option for spawning quivers or backpacks.

=== Effects ===
A creature can be created with an effect from an [[interaction token|interaction]] by pressing {{key|u}} in the Creation menu. In vanilla games, the available effects are the interactions of [[necromancer]]s, [[undead|animated corpse]]s, [[mummy|disturbed dead]], accursed, [[werebeast]]s and [[vampire]]s. Any modded interaction with a defined arena name will also be available.

=== Teams ===
It is possible to 'Team' creatures up by pressing {{k|s}} and {{k|d}} in the Creation menu which is shown on the top left hand side. There are 99 teams, as well as "Independent", which is the default and acts as every creature for himself.

In this way you can create simulated battles against beasts or enemies. For example, you can test twenty sword-users versus twenty macemen and analyze the battle from the gamelog.txt.

[[Necromancer]]s and [[mummy|disturbed dead]] that are marked as Independent will not be at peace with the [[undead|zombies]] that they raise. This is not a bug because arena independence overrides anything else.

===Butchering===
Corpses can be butchered by moving over them and pressing {{k|a}}. This can be an easy way to obtain butchering information, although there tends to be a distinct lack of variation in the results (unless the corpse is missing a body part). This is partly due to the fact that no child creatures can be created.

===Nature of conflict===
The [[level of conflict]] between creatures or alliances can be controlled in the main screen with the keys {{key|shift+C}} and {{key|c}}. The available settings are, from most lethal to least:

*No quarter
*Lethal
*Non-lethal
*Brawl
*Training
*Horseplay
*Encounter

[[Morale]] may also be switched on or off with {{key|m}} on the main screen.

== Fighting in the Arena yourself ==
Loo{{key|k}} at any creature, and press {{key|a}} to play as them, and {{key|ctrl+a}} to exit back to the main mode.
*The controls here are exactly the same as in [[Adventurer mode]].
*Attempting to {{key|a}} a corpse results in the corpse being butchered.

== Spawning liquids ==
From the loo{{key|k}} menu, press {{key|l}} to spawn a 7/7 unit of lava, or {{key|w}} to spawn 7/7 water on the currently selected tile. If you place water and then lava in the same tile, they will immediately form a 'Rough-hewn Rock Wall' (i.e. before you unpause), resulting in no spillage. However, placing lava and then water simply fills the tile with water, with the same effect as placing water without magma. It is also possible to spawn rock walls in mid-air, usually causing a [[cave-in]]. You can place fluids in a tile that also has a wall in it; the result is a tile with both a wall ''and'' 7/7 units of the fluid you placed (water or lava). This combination behaves exactly the same normal water without the wall would, except the area is still considered inaccessible for water to move through.

== Spawning trees ==
Also can be spawned from loo{{key|k}}ing are multi-tile [[tree]]s. Press {{key|t}} to create a tree. You can choose a tree from a list of species, as well as its {{key|a}}ge. Again, pressing {{key|enter}} will spawn the tree itself. Trees can be placed anywhere, even a rock block floor or ''mid-air'' (the latter will also cause a cave-in, replacing rock block floors with sand). Arena-created trees do not spawn with roots. At present it's not possible to chop down a tree, though they can be burned by spawning lava, killing the tree.

==Controlling the Environment==
The arena's environment can be modified in-game by pressing {{k|w}}. From this screen, you can adjust Weather, Temperature, and Time. From this menu, you can also press {{k|s}} to cover every map tile in snow, {{k|m}} to make everything muddy, and {{k|x}} to remove all mud and snow.

===Weather===
This section has 4 options, each of which can be set to various settings:
* Cumulus
** No cumulus clouds
** Scattered cumulus
** Many cumulus (rain)
** Cumulonimbus (rain)
* Cirrus (toggle)
* Stratus
** No stratus
** Altostratus
** Stratus (rain)
** Nimbostratus (rain)
* Fog
** No fog
** Thin mist
** Fog
** Thick fog

As expected, the options marked with "(rain)" will cause it to start raining.

===Temperature===
The arena's temperature can be set to one of 13 settings:

* Dragonfire - {{ct|50000}}
* Magma - {{ct|12000}}
* Fire - {{ct|11000}}
* Scorching - {{ct|10080}}
* Hot - {{ct|10070}}

* Dusk (8:30pm)
* Night (10:00pm)
* Midnight (12:00am)
* Late night (2:00am)
* Early morning (4:00am)

==Modifying the Arena layout==
{{file|DF/data/init/arena.txt|section=yes}}
The layout of the arena zone is stored in the (DF)/data/init folder. Modifications to this file will not change the dimensions of the arena; they can only change the initial tiles and fluids present.

The arena is composed of 9 [[z-level]]s (including Z=0, from Z=-4 to Z=4) of 144 x 144 tiles; the contents of each tile are specified by a single character:

Object testing arena

2014-08-03T00:56:22Z

Samanato: /* Spawning trees */

{{av}}
{{Quality|Exceptional|08:10, 8 June 2010 (UTC)}}
The '''object testing arena''' is a fun place; you can test things, or just have some fun carnage. The arena is accessed through the main menu. Note that the object testing arena is not the same as an arena created in [[fortress mode]].

== Spawning creatures ==
Creatures can be spawned while in the loo{{key|k}} menu. Press {{key|c}} to create a creature. Select the creature type, skills and equipment, and then press {{key|enter}}. Press {{key|Esc}} (or whatever you bound "leave screen" to) to cancel without creating the creature. You cannot delete creatures. You can, however, press {{key|w}} then {{key|l}} to create a stone wall, instantly killing anything on that tile.

=== Inventory and skills ===
While in the creature placement menu, it is possible to add skills to your creatures such as the fighter skill. It is also possible to add weapons, ammo, and armour to your creatures. Creatures unable to use the weapons given to them will drop them upon unpausing, but creatures such as dwarves will happily use the weapon as long as they at least have dabbling in the weapon skill. You can also set exactly how much of a certain item you want when you select it, by using the {{key|+}} or {{key|-}} keys, which is the only way to get a creature to hold more than one piece of ammo, as the arena lacks an option for spawning quivers or backpacks.

=== Effects ===
A creature can be created with an effect from an [[interaction token|interaction]] by pressing {{key|u}} in the Creation menu. In vanilla games, the available effects are the interactions of [[necromancer]]s, [[undead|animated corpse]]s, [[mummy|disturbed dead]], accursed, [[werebeast]]s and [[vampire]]s. Any modded interaction with a defined arena name will also be available.

=== Teams ===
It is possible to 'Team' creatures up by pressing {{k|s}} and {{k|d}} in the Creation menu which is shown on the top left hand side. There are 99 teams, as well as "Independent", which is the default and acts as every creature for himself.

In this way you can create simulated battles against beasts or enemies. For example, you can test twenty sword-users versus twenty macemen and analyze the battle from the gamelog.txt.

[[Necromancer]]s and [[mummy|disturbed dead]] that are marked as Independent will not be at peace with the [[undead|zombies]] that they raise. This is not a bug because arena independence overrides anything else.

===Butchering===
Corpses can be butchered by moving over them and pressing {{k|a}}. This can be an easy way to obtain butchering information, although there tends to be a distinct lack of variation in the results (unless the corpse is missing a body part). This is partly due to the fact that no child creatures can be created.

'''Bold text'''===Nature of conflict===
The [[level of conflict]] between creatures or alliances can be controlled in the main screen with the keys {{key|shift+C}} and {{key|c}}. The available settings are, from most lethal to least:

*No quarter
*Lethal
*Non-lethal
*Brawl
*Training
*Horseplay
*Encounter

[[Morale]] may also be switched on or off with {{key|m}} on the main screen.

== Fighting in the Arena yourself ==
Loo{{key|k}} at any creature, and press {{key|a}} to play as them, and {{key|ctrl+a}} to exit back to the main mode.
*The controls here are exactly the same as in [[Adventurer mode]].
*Attempting to {{key|a}} a corpse results in the corpse being butchered.

== Spawning liquids ==
From the loo{{key|k}} menu, press {{key|l}} to spawn a 7/7 unit of lava, or {{key|w}} to spawn 7/7 water on the currently selected tile. If you place water and then lava in the same tile, they will immediately form a 'Rough-hewn Rock Wall' (i.e. before you unpause), resulting in no spillage. However, placing lava and then water simply fills the tile with water, with the same effect as placing water without magma. It is also possible to spawn rock walls in mid-air, usually causing a [[cave-in]]. You can place fluids in a tile that also has a wall in it; the result is a tile with both a wall ''and'' 7/7 units of the fluid you placed (water or lava). This combination behaves exactly the same normal water without the wall would, except the area is still considered inaccessible for water to move through.

== Spawning trees ==
Also can be spawned from loo{{key|k}}ing are multi-tile [[tree]]s. Press {{key|t}} to create a tree. You can choose a tree from a list of species, as well as its {{key|a}}ge. Again, pressing {{key|enter}} will spawn the tree itself.

Samanato: /* Reaching Hell */

{{Migrated_article}}
{{av}}{{Quality|Exceptional}}
{{spoiler}}

==Reaching Hell==
Upon digging sufficiently deep (usually z-level ~160, but it can vary wildly) you will find huge magma lakes. These are surrounded by semi molten rock, which cannot be cleared by digging but seems otherwise stable. Eventually, you will reach a layer which contains nothing but molten rock and little to no possibilities to pass. You can reach the critical layer by digging through solid rock which gets rarer the deeper you dig. In fortress mode, there are two ways through the impassible layer:

'''Digging through an adamantine vein:''' [[raw adamantine|Adamantine]] veins are shaped like vertical tubes and breach through any layer of semi-molten rock, right down into Hell. The lower layers of the vein are often hollow and act as a tube, leading straight to your doom. Breaching into the hollow center of a vein has the same effect as breaching into Hell, so beware. You could easily dig around the hollow core provided you knew where it was, but every vein's hollow center is located a different height - the risk is all part of the [[fun]].
Note that adamantine veins always seem to end in mid air, so once you breached the final layer you face a horde of demons which hovers directly below your feet.


'''Tunneling through semi molten rock:''' A new method has been discovered that allows your dwarves to engineer a convoluted system involving controlled cavern collapsing and exploiting the odd behavior of a [[semi-molten rock|magma flow]] tile. Not only does it allow access to Hell, you can further exploit the Magma Flow tile to dig through Eerie Pits, duplicate any type of stone (including raw adamantine) and [[Slade|mine slade]]. The whole thing is documented and explained in this [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=108189.0 Forum Thread]. When Hell is first revealed, if your map contains any adamantine veins a welcoming party will spawn below one of them; if not there will be no welcoming party.

In adventure mode, one may find huge [[slade]] [[underworld spire]]s built as gateways to the Underworld. The lowermost levels of these structures indeed lead directly into Hell, with several [[demon]]s waiting below.

==Hell itself==

[[File:eerie_cavern.png]]

You will receive the above announcement upon piercing Hell. One step later, you will get a second announcement: "Horrifying screams come from the darkness below!" At this point a massive number of [[demon]]s will be spawned - though the number is not fixed, the demons will likely fill many pages on the Units screen. You'd do well to prepare for the worst.

Hell takes the shape of a large open cavern made of [[slade]]. It expands out in all directions without bound with a height varying between 1 and 4 z. Its rough floor slopes up and down, making it possible to walk around and explore should you get an adventurer down there. In the floor are glowing cracks that shine purple light up into the main cavern of Hell - whence comes this light, mortal minds dare not speculate.

Those cracks are referred to in-game as an Eerie Glowing Pit. They are, as the name suggests, bottomless pits - falling into them results in instant death, just as with standard [[40d:chasm|chasm]]s in older versions. As such, some precaution should be taken when engaging enemies near them, as they usually charge against any creature near them. Floors can be [[Construction|built]] over them, and deconstructing them will reveal the pits again.

In Hell proper, demons spawn on the edges much like animals do on the surface; demons thus spawned will be content to meander Hell without going out of their way to extinguish all life they can reach. It is yet unclear whether the number of demons is finite; in information exported from the legends screen, the population of demonic species is listed as "unnumbered," a descriptor usually reserved for ants, worms, and other omnipresent vermin.

If you dig down through a hollow adamantine pillar, but had previously blocked off the particular hallway with a drawbridge and raise it, you can discover the location of all adamantine on the map with no negatives.

Samanato: /* Hidden Fun Stuff */

{{Migrated_article}}
{{Quality|Exceptional|18:04, 19 July 2013 (UTC)}}
{{av}}{{Category|Creatures}}

In Dwarf Fortress, a '''creature''' is defined as any animate, normally-mobile (and for the sake of this article, non-[[vermin]]) being that can interact with the world. Although most creatures are animals, [[dwarf|dwarves]], [[giant cave spider]]s, and even [[megabeast]]s are all also considered creatures. Various creatures can and will interact with a fortress or adventure in many different ways.

==Reading the Table==
{{CreatureCurrent table head}}
|}
The above columns indicate, in order:

'''Symbol:''' The symbol assigned to the creature, how you will see it without a graphic set.

'''Name:''' The name of the creature as it shows up ingame.

'''Hostile:''' If "Yes" then the creature will attack on sight, if "No" then the creature is either neutral or friendly. [[Undead]] creatures are always hostile to living things.

'''Food Source:''' If "Yes" then the creature can be butchered into edible substance that your dwarves will feed on.

'''Adult Body Size:''' The average size of the creature when an adult. This can be anywhere from 500 for a [[rabbit]] to 25,000,000 for a [[dragon]]. More or less equals the creature's weight in grams. These sizes do not correspond to the sizes which trigger [[pressure plate]]s. Size is modified with height and broadness (i.e. incredible skinny and short is below the average weight, while a fat and tall one is above it).

'''Pet Value:''' This is the value the creature can be bought and sold for as a [[pet]] during [[trading]].

'''Biome:''' Where the creature can be found.

'''Features:''' Any special features the creature possesses, these can include things such as [[cave blob|causing a syndrome]], [[dragon|breathing fire]], or [[giant cave spider|spinning webs]].

Plant token

2014-08-02T03:57:45Z

Samanato: /* Tree Tokens */ tested periods, these apparently influence rate of growth

{{Migrated_article}}
{{quality|unrated}}{{av}}
The default plants are stored in the plant_standard.txt file, while grasses are stored in plant_grasses.txt.

==Basic Tokens==
These tokens are specified for all plants and define their most basic characteristics.

{| {{prettytable}}
|- style='background-color:#ddd'
! width="20%" | Token
! width="20%" | Arguments
! width="60%" | Description

|-
| NAME
|
*name
| The singular form of the plants name as seen in game.

|-
| NAME_PLURAL
|
*name
| The plural form of the plants name as seen in game.

|-
| ADJ
|
*adjective
| The word or phrase used to describe items made from this plant.

|-
| ALL_NAMES
|
*name
| Sets the NAME, NAME_PLURAL, and ADJ to the specified string.

|-
| PREFSTRING
|
*reason
| What dwarves can like this object for (e.g. "Urist likes plump helmets for their rounded tops.")

|-
| MATERIAL
|
*material_name
| Starts defining a new local plant material with the given name and '''no''' properties.

|-
| USE_MATERIAL
|
*material_name
*old_material
| Starts defining a new local plant material with the given name and using the properties of another local plant material.

|-
| USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE
|
*material_name
*template_name
| Starts defining a new local plant material with the given name and using the properties of the specified material template.

|-
| BASIC_MAT
|
* [[Material token|material]]
| Sets the basic material of the plant. According to Toady, you can use other materials (for instance, iron) but the game may hiccup on plants that aren't structurally plants. For crops, said material should have [STRUCTURAL_PLANT_MAT] to permit proper stockpiling. Generally, this should be "LOCAL_PLANT_MAT:material_name", using a material defined using MATERIAL, USE_MATERIAL, or USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE.
|}

==Environment Tokens==
These tokens, also applicable to all plants, specify where the plants grow.

{| {{prettytable}}
|- style='background-color:#ddd'
! width="20%" | Token
! width="20%" | Arguments
! width="60%" | Description

|-
| UNDERGROUND_DEPTH
|
*minimum
*maximum
| Designates the highest and lowest cavern levels that the plant can appear in if its [[biome token|biome]] is subterranean. Dwarven civilizations will only export (via the embark screen or caravans) things that available at depth 1. Defaults to 0:0 (surface only).

|-
| GOOD
|
| Restricts the plant to growing in Good regions. Cannot be combined with [EVIL].

|-
| EVIL
|
| Restricts the plant to growing in Evil regions. Cannot be combined with [GOOD].

|-
| SAVAGE
|
| Restricts the plant to growing in Savage regions (regardless of alignment).

|-
| FREQUENCY
|
*freq (0-100)
| How frequently this plant is generated in a particular area. Defaults to 50. Plants with valid [[biome token]]s and [FREQUENCY:0] will not grow in the wild, but will still be available for entity use and farm plots.

|-
| WET
|
| Allows the plant to grow near water features.

|-
| DRY
|
| Allows the plant to grow away from water features.

|-
| BIOME
|
*biome
| What [[biome token|biome]] this plant appears in.

|}

==Growth Tokens==

*singular
*plural (STP for standard plural)
| The name of a plant growth.

|-
| GROWTH_ITEM
|
* [[item token]]
* [[material token]]
| Specifies what item this growth is and what it is made of. Generally, the item type should be PLANT_GROWTH:NONE.

|-
| GROWTH_HOST_TILE

'''Divine metals''' are special, procedurally generated [[metal]]s that can be found in [[vault]]s. Divine metals are used as material for items, [[weapon]]s and [[armor]] used by [[angel]]s, who ruthlessly protect the vault's priceless treasures.

== Traits ==

Divine metals appear to have identical [[Material definition token|material properties]] and list of items craftable from them; the only difference between them are the name and [[deity]] association. All divine metals have high yield values of 1000000 and fracture values of 2000000, and perfect strain-at-yield values of 0. They are extremely light, at only a solid density of 1000, and have a superior max edge of 12000. They are granted [[sphere]]s matching the associated [[deity]] that has created the metal (and the guardians who wield it), and a descriptive name with the formula of "(adjective) metal" — examples of such are "multicoloured metal", "pale metal", and "twisting metal".

Overall, their material properties are much better than the corresponding values of [[steel]], but worse than those of [[adamantine]]. They are terrifyingly potent when used for edged weapons, due to their ultra-sharpness, but despite their light weight, even blunt weapons tend to be highly effective. Any adventurer that is godly enough (or reckless) to raid a [[vault]] is highly advised that he get [[Adamantine|proper]] [[Masterpiece|equipment]] before engaging the divine creatures within. The easiest way to do so is with the help of your own dwarf fortress — once you obtain access to [[adamantine]] and have made some equipment out of it, retire or abandon your fort, then let your adventurer visit that fort. Bear in mind that your adventurer needs to be a [[dwarf]] or [[elf]] to equip this adamantine armour.

Weapons and armour made of divine metals may be tested in the [[Arena]].
