Squid men, like most anthropomorphic sea life, can be found in savage oceans. They will suffocate if they go out of the water, meaning they pose no threat whatsoever to your fortress.

...in most cases, that is.

Testing in the arena (5 undead squid men VS. 5 human swordsmen) has shown that one re-animated squid man, in addition to being able to travel on land, has the potential to quickly become an army of re-animated body parts, as they have twelve limbs and eight sets of hands, all of which are theoretically capable of holding a weapon or item.

The Squid man is considered the most sophisticated of the aquatic animalmen, as it has been known to use tools and play instruments, the clarinet being most commonly used. It has also been observed to have a strange aversion to sponge men. More research is necessary to determine the cause of this.

Reports have also surfaced of Squid man children competing deep below the waves for territory using their ink despite being born into adulthood. It is still a mystery among Dwarven biologists as to how and why such events are coordinated.
