This is a list of random creature profiles (RCPs) which are used by procedurally generated creatures. RCPs use body parts from body_rcp.txt instead of body_default.txt.
Overview
RCP stands for "random creature profile". RCP is hard-coded raw text that defines the basic body, tissues and body attacks of a random creature before it goes under further randomness (three-eyed, wings of stretched skin, external ribs, elemental composition, etc.). Most amphibian, mammalian and reptilian RCPs have humanoid variations of themselves, described as "in humanoid form" or "twisted into humanoid form". There are 243 standard RCPs and 81 humanoid variations, which brings the known total to 324.
The RCP of a randomly generated creature can be identified by its description. Many RCPs have identical names with normal creatures (e.g. albatross), although they are entirely unrelated; other RCPs feature animals that don't exist anywhere else, such as zebras. Some RCPs have inherent abilities like flight or webbing.
Night trolls and bogeymen only use the generic "humanoid" RCP, and werebeasts use the humanoid animal forms. Primates, hexapods, octopods and decapods are unique to beast-like experiments, while armless bipeds, wyrms, and the generic "snake" and "worm" RCPs are unique to failed experiments.
List
In ASCII mode, nearly all RCPs use specific uppercase or lowercase letters if the monster type does not use a fixed tile, such as '&' for demons. Lobsters uniquely use the '¥' sign instead. RCPs with humanoid versions are bolded. Humanoid forms use the same tile as their standard counterparts.
Capitalization denotes body size. In most cases, anything larger than a dwarf (60,000) uses an uppercase letter. Only uppercase letters are shown here.
In-game, the tile color is determined by the creature's external color modifier. If it does not have a color modifier and is not skinless, it uses the outermost tissue layer's default material color. If it is skinless, it is displayed in dark red (4:0:0).

Graphics
All random creatures except werebeasts use graphic sprites found in beasts.png and beasts_small.png. There are 19 primary body sprites (6 are alternate-legged variations) with additional sprite layers representing secondary body parts. Several RCPs have one or more secondary sprite layers by default. A few RCPs, like quadrupeds, have more than one body sprite to randomly select from.
